1.
love is imitating. life is so intimidating. it's false. it's lies. it's fake. everyone feels so cheap. my face weathers. my mask fades. you don't see me. just the hurt inside my eyes. it burns.
2.
cringe. i look back and suffer. at the person that i see. these are not the words i'd speak. love's not real. you're nothing. i just cringe. taste your guilt. my mirror no longer reflects me. and i'm suffering the loss. i don't believe in those years. i bathe in the ecstasy. you're built on nothing but lies. far worse than i ever was. i hope the suffering catches up with every drug you chase. cringe. you cringe. and you'll always be worthless. you'll never escape the hurt. and you'll always be nothing. you'll never escape the pain. we've finally rid ourselves of you and every memory. and with my dying breath i'll whisper you're just worthless.
3.
and the light breaks. a single tear falls. with tear stained eyes. is this who i really am? i dim now. i dim next to you. beauty bears a mark. i just look away. why is the light always wasted on me? i'm not strong enough to last through forever. i'm not really sure what that even fucking means. this is self preservation. this is self isolation. i find relief in this. i find relief in you. no feeling. no grace. no worth. i'll just fade. reaping the whirlwind. it calls out my name. i'm first in it's place. it's name use to be my name. the reaping whirlwind.
4.
be.here.now. 02:55
be here now. i fell from love again. be here now. i failed at love again. bring me down. i fell from love again. let me down. i failed at love again. i search and suffer. i try and i fail. i search and suffer. year after year on your trail. and i'm not sure i'll make it through tonight. my mind is a prison. that keeps me from dancing. with the one i love. cast me into darkness. i won't be there. anxious and tired. vexed and weathered. my road worn heart breaks as i pray for death. your death.
