Sleepless 01:57
Lay awake As the night burns over Stay afraid As your mind sinks into the dark Lay awake Because you're broken Stay afraid Of the life, that is to come

Ghost 03:43
You’re a living ghost Lingering around my day Haunting my every thought It's hard to come to terms There’s no us left to hope for Haunting all of my senses Causing my dismay Leaving me in purgatory Cause it‘s killing me To see you like this I’m so afraid of how this will end Cause I’m suffering That will never change I can never forget You are my phantom At night I can’t fall asleep You’re haunting my every dream My heads in the clouds And my hearts overwhelmed I need your face to comfort myself But you’re a ghost to me now It’s been hard not to decay I’m going crazy in this silence It’s hard to find purpose in the days, When they’re quiet Your absence exposes how little I have And how insignificant I am It’s killing me To see you like this I’m so afraid of how this will end Cause I’m suffering That will never change I can never forget You are my phantom At night I can’t fall asleep You’re haunting my every dream My heads in the clouds And my hearts overwhelmed I need your face to comfort myself But you’re a ghost to me now You’re a ghost to me now It's torture living here without you But when we laid together it felt the same Because there’s always been distance between us I’ve tried my hardest to let you go But you haunt me, ghost You haunt me

This constant labour to hide a sickness Its hard to bear the light outside scared of confrontation, scared of commitment the past is my anchor and I’m sinking the warmth that wraps around me is the substance I consume the dark seems easier on tired eyes so it becomes the home we chose briefly release the struggle with a sedative, it’s the only way I can get through this when we leave, leave our minds to escape the fight this temporary fix for all the pain medicated just to forget there’s so much beauty in the haze the life in which you’re caged we find our comfort in diversion it moulds in our behaviour when consciousness is our burden and we’ve grown accustom to our failure But the distractions fade away and the effects start to decay Contained to being moderate Through our lack of content our fear of being something when we leave, leave our minds to escape the fight this temporary fix for all the pain medicated just to forget there’s so much beauty in the haze the life in which you’re caged

Retrospect 03:41
I’m so sorry for how I was I know I was a lot to handle But when you’ve been broken like I have It’s hard to trust in love Is the thought of me stuck in your head? Or am I just a memory Faded to the back of your mind never to be seen I’m writing this song here while I’m empty It’s the only time I can because my bottle is the same It’s hard to put it into words How I feel these days It’s hard to imagine things will change Oh how I wish, Oh how I wish you’d stay I just want to feel the beating of your chest against my head again When I fall asleep, frayed and bleak I miss the way you held me close I’m finding it hard to cope without you I’m sorry I had to be this way I couldn’t help it, I’m not okay I’d rather die than watch you walk away I’m finding it hard to focus The closest I get to you is in my dreams But I no longer sleep The nights turn into mourning My mind is my own hell But you gave me strength to love myself don’t want to admit I need your help I just want to feel the beating of your chest against my head again When I fall asleep frayed and bleak I miss the way you held me close I’m finding it hard to cope without you I’m sorry I had to be this way I couldn’t help it, I’m not okay I’d rather die than watch you walk away I can see that you don’t love me, It’s no longer hard to tell But all these chemicals in my brain They just don’t work that well I can’t argue that you’re leaving I don’t like even like myself that much So if I ever happen to drift off I hope I don’t wake up

Ember 02:28
I remember the back of your neck from when I laid down behind you The smell of your hair, The scent of your shampoo The way you’d hold onto me, When you were going home soon, Always held my hand when I had my issues How you looked in that dress The one that was dark blue When you stumbled and fell Dancing in your room Clumsy as hell but you were the one who Fixed me when I needed you to My ember My ember
6.
Dark Shade 04:02
I feel condemned to die lonely will that ever change? I can’t let anyone in anymore Because my past won’t fade My mind frets unprovoked Repeated in the rhythm of a clock So i keep my walls built up Just to get knocked down again When I lose, lose my head Cause this abandonment is all I’ve known I won’t try to stop you when you go I’ve got a burning desire to be a man that never leaves to be a little bit kinder to myself when I’m in need never taught, never saw what love’s supposed to be I’ve got a burning desire, so teach me Growing up in separation My colours run straight to grey The stories I’ve lived, are often painted With a dark shade Cause no ever needed me I’ve always been Disposable No one ever needed me I’ve always been left to suffer On my own I’ve got a burning desire to be a man that never leaves to be a little bit kinder to myself when I’m in need never taught, never saw what love’s supposed to be I’ve got a burning desire, so teach me Teach me how to love cause' I have given up I’ve lived life left abandoned and misunderstood Teach me how to love cause' I have given up I’m just trying to be a better man I’ve got a burning desire to be a man that never leaves to be a little bit kinder to myself when I’m in need never taught, never saw what love’s supposed to be I’ve got a burning desire, so teach me

I want to be the cancer rotting through your bones The thoughts of me breaking you like sticks and stones And when I’m on your breath I hope you choke Further twist the knife in my chest and send me home I was in doubt and you promised me you loved me Just days before you walked out See how little your promises mean to me now Cause i hate you, like I hate myself but I could never love anyone else and I’d hate to let you watch me drown but you’re the only one who could ever pull me down You were my perfection but you never looked at me the same my love for you was my deception for how you really felt about me Ill cut open my chest and rip out my heart And give it to you as a gesture of all my love Cause what I have given you has never seemed to be enough I’ll never been enough I hope you know I burnt the photos of us, The lies that you wrote are scattered in the dust You’re forever the darkest place in my heart The one spot the lights is not Cause I hate you, like I hate myself but I could never love anyone else and I’d hate to let you watch me drown but you’re the only one who could ever pull me down pull me down
