Description
blanklike I'm standing in a river. Water's coming clearer. Hold my breath to catch a feather fallen from an angel.
do it better. Always running in my mind. Can't keep on track of time. I'm falling down and I don't know why.
He said I looked like an angel. Like I was beautiful. But look in the mirror, when your shadow pulls you into hell.
You don't know why you can't see the blue sky. Asked why, but never got a reply. I'm young, and fresh. Like a wallflower.
I'm pressed beneath your lies and contradictions. Your waves of fate and competition.
Why does the world want me? Or am I too beautiful; now I'm ugly. It's only what you see, but you can't see the little girl inside of me.
Running and crying away. Those little fears, and faithful cheers. The broken down. The not-around.
I'm a shadow running. I'm a lightning bolt just trying to make you see. You can't judge what you don't see.
It's just an act they say. She won't make it.
So I cry some more. Making wishes and plans. Wishing that I could run off the stands and cry. When we're surrounded by hallways of lies.
Love and truth are plain. You say I'm lying, I say I'm just the same as you. Running my mouth because I'm not afraid of you.
But if you got to know me, you'd see that there is more to me then the style of my clothes, or the way my hair falls in front of my face.
And I'm standing here, trying to erase all my bad habits. I want to be perfect for you. But I'm not.
And that's what you don't see.
You can't cry when there are no more tears to grab hold of.
And so, we walk away. Trying to run faster than the highest wave. Before it crashes on us, and we're left in pieces.
It was all a joke, I didn't mean it..
Mean what you say. So I won't jump off this bridge, I'll walk away.
Into the sunsets of bittersweet tears.
Leave your shadow behind me..
~End~
