I fell in love with a girl, and selfish one at that
I gave her my heart and soul, and she never gave back
She didn't love with her whole body but my heart was always hers
I let let myself fall so hard for you, even though I knew you weren't good
And you kissed her, when you should've been kissing me, should of been kissing me
Should of been kissing me
Oh
You touched her when you should've been touching me
Should've been touching me
Should of been with me
I never expected this all of the things you did i cant count how many times i forgave you
I always forgave you
You thought of him when you should've of been thinking of me
You thought of him when you should've been thinking of me
You'll be touching him and you should still be touching me

Dead or Alive

Life is filled with bittersweet happiness
cause I wake up everyday and I'm still alive
but i'm too filled with cowardice
to take my own life
And I know that you'll say that its a good thing
and I know and I know and I know you'll say its a good thing
but I don't live in this body
I don't have love for this body anymore
I don't have love
I don't have love
cause I don't live in this body anymore
anymore

You Are The Light

you are, everything I want in a human being
you make my heart race im sure my pulse is through the ceiling
and I, never thought id smile this much
its not my fault you make my heart rush
You are the light in a dark place (x2)
you make me smile even if its through a screen
I like waking up, knowing your missing me, as much as I'm missing you
who knew that youd capture my heart i guess im used to it being torn apart
You are the light in a dark place (x2)
you are my light in my dark places
you are my light in my dark spaces
you are my light in my dark places

Not Your Girl

Im tired of
living in this body of
breathing in this body when every breath is a lie
cause Im no pretty girl
why does the world want me to be pretty
I cut off all my hair, and I try not to care,
when they call me a faggot from their passing car doors
I used to put duct tape on my chest cause the world gave me a body I never asked for
and I cried to my mama the other day, when she called me by my real name
cause I used to be her pretty girl
im sorry i killed your pretty girl
Cause I'm no pretty girl
why does the world want me to be pretty (x2)
I'm no pretty girl why does the world want me to be

Everything

What kind of chapstick do you use when you wake up sad?
When you go to sleep at night, which side of the bed do you use
I wanna know everything there is to know about you (x2)
When you played Pokemon sun and moon
which Pokemon did you choose?
If I gave you a peach and a pear, tell me would you despair
if i peeled them first?
I wanna know everything there is to know about you (x3)
you are so beautiful when the sunlight hits your face
but what does your skin taste like when youre lying awake thinking of me
and Im sorry this sounds kind of creepy
i wrote this while I was sleepy
and thinking back I could have worded it better but the sentiment still stands
I wanna know everything there is to know about you
everything

Did you know
im afraid of the dark
and everything that it holds
Ive spent too many years crying too many tears
afraid of the coming years
and I
I'm afraid of the closet
and all the years I spent in there
left too many skeletons hanging in old clothes in old fears
I dont wanna be afraid, dont wanna be afraid anymore
So I'll tuck myself in
fuck fear dont let fear win
and I'll get over
I'll get over
I dont wanna be afraid, dont wanna be afraid anymore
