No one understands
The weight of the world rests on my hands
I try to defend
I try to win
But I get nothing in the end
I don't see why I try
I don't see why I try
I don't see why
I don't see why-y -
This one isn't one I've written:
"Her Last Words"
Just an average girl,
She always wore a smile
She was cheerful and happy for a short while.
Now she's older, things are getting colder
Life's not what she thought,
she wished someone had told her.
She told you she was down
And you let it slip by
So from then on she kept it on the inside
She told herself she was alright
But she was telling white lies
Can't you tell, look at her dull eyes
Tried to stop herself from crying almost every night
But she knew there was no chance of feeling alright
Summer came by, all she wore was long sleeves
'Cause those cuts on her wrist were bleeding through you see
She knew she was depressed, didn't want to admit it
Didn't think she fit in, everyone seemed to miss it
She carried on like a soldier with a battle wound,
Bleeding out from every cut her body consumed
She had no friends at school, all alone she sat
And if someone were to notice she would blame the cat
But those cuts on her wrist they were no mistake,
But no one cared enough to save her from this self hate
Things were going down never really up,
And here she is now stuck in this stupid rut
She knew exactly what she had to do next,
Just stand on the chair and tie the rope around her neck
She wrote a letter with her hands shaking wild,
"Look at me now are you proud of your precious child?"
But she knew that her parents weren't the ones to blame,
It was the world that should bow down it's head in shame
She stood up on the chair and looked out at the moon,
Just don't think it'll all be over soon
The chair fell down as she took her final breath,
It's all over all gone, now she's greeting death
Her mum walks in, she falls down to the floor,
And now nothing can take back what she just saw
The little girl that she raised is just hanging there,
Her body's pale and her face is violently bare,
She sees the note and unfolds it with care,
All she does is stare, "How can this be fair?"
She starts reading as the tears roll down her face,
"I'm sorry Mum, but this world is just not my place,
I've tried for so long to fix this and fit in,
I've come to realise this world's full of sin,
There's nothing for me here, I'm just a waste of space,
I've got no reason to stay here with this awful race,
It's a disgrace, I was misplaced,
Born in the wrong time and in the wrong place,
It's ok though, 'cause you'll see me soon,
You'll know when your time has come, just look at the moon,
As it shines bright, throughout the night,
And remember everyone's facing their own fights,
But i can't deal with this pain, I'm not a fighter,
You'll make it through the night, just hug your pillow tighter
So let the world know that I died in vain,
Because the world around me is the one to blame,
And I know in a year you'll forget I'm gone,
'Cause I'm not really something to be dwelled on,
That's what they used to tell me, all those kids at school,
So I'm going by the law majority rules,
My presence on this earth is not needed any longer,
And if anything I hope this makes you stronger,
You're the best friend that I ever had,
Such a shame I had to make you so very sad,
Just remember that you meant everything to me,
And to my heart, you're the only one that held the key,
Now it's time to go I'm running out of space to write,
And yes I lost my fight, but please just hold on tight
I'm watching over you from the clouds above,
And sending down the purest and whitest dove,
To watch over you and be my helpful eye,
So this is it world...
Goodbye!" -
"Dear Diary"

("Dear Diary
Today was a long day in school and I haven't really eaten anything yet today
But I guess that's good
I just wanted to write something real quick before I go off to bed")
So here it goes:
Dear diary
I'm fourteen and I always feel so nervous
Tell me why is it that everyone is so perfect
While I feel so worthless, and they look so happy
While lately for me, my mood has been so crappy
And I have come to believe all the things that I'm seeing
On magazines and TV, of every single perfect being
All the girls with perfect bodies, and such amazing skin
Oh how I would kill to live the life that they are in
I've been trying to lose weight over that past couple of weeks
Throwing up after meals, on the rare times that I eat
But that isn't enough, I still need to do much more
To get this guy to notice me, people wonder what for
There's so much room in my tummy that it isn't funny
I don't wanna be people's dummy, but either way I feel dumpy
Most of the time I am left here, thinking to myself
Oh god is this worth it, or do I need some help
Like:
I've been used by guys, I've been hurt by girls
I've been hit by my mom, and cursed by the world
So I keep losing weight, just trying to be perfect
I'm waiting for somebody to tell me that I'm worth it -
"Don't You Dare Forget The Sun"
You're a mess, tangled with your confidence.
You think you haven't sinned.
Well, you're unstoppable,
Your walls are impassible.
Oh, I think that you're better off looking alone,
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home.
And at the end of the day you think to yourself,
"My body is a product being sold on a shelf."
Tell me I can change,
Tell me I can change.
Well, I know you lay in bed,
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!
(Don't forget!)
Cold white walls, keep you from your pad and pen.
You just wanna stab again.
I can't believe it's half this hard,
You never knew your mind was dark, no!
Well, I think you're better off looking alone,
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home.
You can dig so deep for scars,
You never knew your mind was dark.
Come on and breathe with me, oh!
Breathe with me, oh!
Well, I know you lay in bed,
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!
You look down on, me so casually,
In everything I know.
You look down on me, but not right on me.
Did I wreck this broken home?
Dear diary,
Life is trying me.
Can I get a sign?
Or a two of mine, a piece of mind.
Can I get a sign? (a sign)
Can I get a sign? (I know)
Well, I know you lay in bed,
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!
You look down on, me so casually,
In everything I know.
You look down on me, but not right on me.
Is it plain to see, that life is trying me?
Ohh, life is trying me!
Life is trying.
Can I think of something?
Gotta think of something! -
"21 Guns"
Do you know what's worth fighting for
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide
Did someone break your heart inside
You're in ruins
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I...
When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass
And the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last
You're in ruins
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I...
Did you try to live on your own
When you burned down the house and home
Did you stand too close to the fire?
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone
When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died
You're in ruins
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
One, 21 Guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 Guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I -
"Forever And Always"
[Verse 1:]
She's sitting at the table, the hours get later
He was supposed to be here
She's sure he would've called
She waits a little longer, there's no one in the driveway
No one's said they've seen him
Why, is something wrong?
She looks back to the window
Suddenly the phone rings
A voice says something's happened
That she should come right now
Her mind goes to December
She thinks of when he asked her
He bent down on his knee first
And he said
[Chorus:]
I want you forever, forever and always
Through the good and the bad and the ugly
We'll grow old together
Forever and always
[Verse 2:]
She pulls up to the entrance
She walks right to the front desk
They lead her down a million halls, a maze that's never ending
They talk about what happened but she can barely hear them
She tries to keep a straight face as she walks into the room
She sits by his bedside, holds his hand too tight
They talk about the kids they're gonna have and the good life
The house on the hillside, where they would stay
[Chorus:]
Stay there forever, forever and always
Through the good and the bad and the ugly
We'll grow old together, and always remember
Whether rich or for poor or for better
We'll still love each other, forever and always
[Bridge:]
Then she gets an idea and calls in the nurses
Brings up the chaplain and he says a couple verses
She borrows some rings from the couple next door
Everybody's laughing as the tears fall on the floor
She looks into his eyes, and she says
[Chorus:]
I want you forever, forever and always
Through the good and the bad and the ugly
We'll grow old together, and always remember
Whether happy or sad or whatever
We'll still love each other, forever and always
Forever and always, forever and always
She finishes the vows but the beeps are getting too slow
His voice is almost too low
As he says, "I love you forever, forever and always
Please just remember even if I'm not there
I'll always love you, forever and always." -
"Terrible Things"
By the time I was your age, I'd give anything
To fall in love truly, was all I could think
That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman, that I'd ever seen
She said, "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can't help but notice, you're staring at me.
I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe,
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me."
Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things.
Now, most of the time we'd have too much to drink
And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
Too young to notice, and too dumb to care
Love was a story that couldn't compare.
I said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string.
Open with care now, I'm asking you, please.
You know that I love you, will you marry me?"
Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things
You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray,
That God shows you differently.
She said, "Boy can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks.
Please, don't be sad now, I really believe,
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me."
Slow, so slow I fell to the ground on my knees.
So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose
If you're given the choice, then I beg you to choose
To walk away, walk away, don't let her get you.
I can't bear to see the same happen to you.
Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things -

"Miserable At Best"
Katie, don't cry, I know
You're trying your hardest
And the hardest part is letting go
Of the nights we shared
Ocala is calling
And you know it's haunting
But compared
To your eyes,
Nothing shines
Quite as bright
And when we look to the sky,
It's not mine,
But I want it so
Let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best
You're all that I hoped to find
In every single way
And everything I would give
Is everything you couldn't take
'Cause nothing feels like home,
You're a thousand miles away
And the hardest part of living
Is just taking breaths to stay
'Cause I know I'm good for something
I just haven't found it yet
But I need it
So let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable at best
Ladada ladada ladadaoh ohhh
And this'll be the first time in a week
That I'll talk to you
And I can't speak
It's been three whole days since I've had sleep
'Cause I dream of his lips on your cheek
And I got the point that I should leave you alone
But we both know that I'm not that strong
And I miss the lips that made me fly
So let's not pretend like you're alone tonight
(I know he's there and)
You're probably hanging out and making eyes
(while across the room he stares)
I'll bet he gets the nerve to walk the floor
And ask my girl to dance, and she'll say yes
Because these words were never easier for me to say
Or her to second guess
But I guess
That I can live without you but
Without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you
But without you I'll be miserable
And I can live without you
Oh, without you I'll be miserable at best -
"Why"
The buttons on my phone are worn thin
I don't think that I knew the chaos I was getting in.
But I've broken all my promises to you
I've broken all my promises to you.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
A phrasing that's a single tear,
Is harder than I ever feared
And you were left feeling so alone.
Because these days aren't easy
Like they have been once before
These days aren't easy anymore.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me.
I should have known this wasn't real
And fought it off and fought to feel
What matters most? Everything
That you feel while listening to every word that I sing.
I promise you I will bring you home
I will bring you home.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me. -
"Broken"
In the moonlight
Your face it glows
Like a thousand diamonds
I suppose
And your hair flows like
The ocean breeze
Not a million fights
Could make me hate you
You're invincible
Yeah, It's true
It's in your eyes
Where I find peace
Is it broken?
Can we work it out?
Let's light up the town, scream out loud!
Is it broken?
Can we work it out?
I can see in your eyes
You're ready to break
Don't look away.
So here we are now
In a place where
The sun blended
With the ocean thin.
So thin, we stand
Across from each other
Together we'll wonder
If we will last these days
If I asked you to stay
Would you tell me
You would be mine?
And time
Is all I ask for
Time
I just need one more day
And time
You've been crying too long
Time
And your tears wrote this song
Stay
In the moonlight
Your face it glows
Is it broken?
Can we work it out?
Let's light up the town, scream out loud!
Is it broken?
Can we work it out?
I can see in your eyes
You're ready to break
Don't look away. -
"Bruise My Bones"
I'm about to fall down, fall down.
And I'm beginning to doubt,
I can't live with myself so let's drown, let's drown.
And if there's no going back..
This secret's safe with me, oh how you make me believe
that you won't say a word as long as I don't breathe.
But I've been here before and I can already tell
that I'm about to bleed all over the floor.
And I wish I'd known better than to bruise my bones.
I'm about to fall down, fall down.
And I'm beginning to doubt,
I can't live with myself
so let's drown, let's drown.
And if there's no going back,
we'll take the easy way out.
I'll give you everything when it's convenient for me.
If you don't stop my heart, I'll struggle with every beat.
My hands are tied behind my back with rope made out of what I lack.
Where the hell did I go wrong?
I'll sing with you as you proceed to bruise my bones.
I'm about to fall down, fall down.
And I'm beginning to doubt,
I can't live with myself
so let's drown, let's drown.
And if there's no going back..
I'm about to fall down, fall down.
And I'm beginning to doubt,
I can't live with myself
so let's drown, let's drown.
And if there's no going back,
we'll take the easy way out. -
"Love Note For A Rainy Day"
It's a rainy day in his heart
And all his lights burned out
He wants to feel the sunshine
But all he feels is doubt
And he wonders if she hears him when,
He doesn't make a sound
Or if she knows she saves him when
The world shoots him down
She brings out the best in him
Gives him motivation to keep going so
He wrote her a love note
That went a little something like this
When you find yourself caught in the rain
Just know you can call my name and
I'll light up the sky
When you find yourself with growing pains
With hurt that just won't go away then
I'll bring band-aids
Strong enough to turn that pain to love
It's a summer day in her heart
With flowers all around
Everything seems perfect but she's feeling kind of down
She wonders if he understands how much she really cares
How much she wishes everyday that he could just be there
'Cause he brings out the best in her
Makes her feel like shes the most beautiful girl
So she wrote him a love note
That went a little something like this
When you find yourself caught in the rain
Just know you can call my name
I'll light up the sky
When you find yourself with growing pains
With hurt that just won't go away then
I'll bring band-aids
Strong enough to turn that pain to love
When you find yourself with growing pains
Look inside your pillow case and
Read that love note I wrote
Just for a rainy day -
"Between The Roses"
If you ever feel like I did when you slip between the cracks
Maybe then youll see how nothing stays in tact
And when my life is over maybe you can understand
That I planned everything, but nothing went as planned
Its nothing personal, I just want you to know
I tried to understand
You tortured me with the silence in your throat
And you tortured me with the stillness in your bones
You kicked the chair from underneath my feet
You must have seen the noose made out of roses that I wore to guarantee
That you couldnt go, that you wouldnt leave me all alone
Cause if you did, youd see my body hanging just above the floor
Beside a note, to tell the world how terrible it was
To fall in love with someone capable of cutting out my tongue,
Of cutting out my, of cutting out my tongue
So did you just forget, or do you really not remember
The bullets that we took so we could stay alive forever
And did you just forget, or do you really not remember
The poison that we drank, so that at least wed die together
Its comforting to fall asleep alone
And its comforting because its all Ive ever known
If I should die before I wake
I pray to God my soul will find a peaceful place
Between the roses, between the roses
Because the earth is only pretty for so long
Between the roses, between the roses
You were the only one Ill trust to sing along
To sing between the roses, sing my song
So did you just forget, or do you really not remember
The bullets that we took so we could stay alive forever
And did you just forget, or do you really not remember
The poison that we drank, so that at least wed die together
As the sun went down, our hearts were heavy
We knew it was time, but I was not ready
To let you go, to say goodbye
To a love I thought would never die
You were quiet as hell and you looked so sad
As I kissed your lips with my regrets
In hopes that maybe wed pretend
Forever never had to end
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la la la la
That maybe we'd pretend
Our hope had died, but our loves not dead
So grab your black umbrella and make your way down to the graveyard
Where youll find the tree to which I tied this rope
And nothing is for certain, thats the only thing I know
But Im certain that its time for me to go
Its nothing personal, it simply hurts to know
That I will be alone -
"Heaven Is Hell"
There is a wind blowing in my heart,
and with my eyes I cannot see my way out of the dark.
I am a wolf in my bare feet, praying for a spark.
And as I sleep I feel the rain as it rips my throat apart.
And my paw prints are stained with blood,
I follow the moon when I can't trust the sun.
I've been unfaithful, I let these hands sink so low.
If I'm an angel, why do these wings cut my throat?
What beauty lies here in this pile of broken bones?
Without you I would never know.
There's an answer, somewhere in the sky,
but like the Earth, I will accept that every flower grows and dies,
but if you just look close enough
you will see it in my eyes..
That's Heaven's what I seek, but Hell is what I find.
And my paw prints are stained with blood,
I follow the moon when I can't trust the sun.
I've been unfaithful, I let these hands sink so low.
If I'm an angel, why do these wings cut my throat?
What beauty lies here in this pile of broken bones?
Without you I would never know.
The cigarettes, the nicotine, the alcohol, the crazy dreams
are all the things that make me out to be so human.
Never knowing what I want, just trying to love what I got,
I don't know if I'm here or not,
I might lose it!
What the hell is it that you want from me?!
I'm losing everything!
I'm just trying to breathe..
I'm just trying to breathe..
And what is it that you want from me?
I'm losing everything!
I'm just trying to breathe.
I'm just trying to breathe!
I've been unfaithful, I let these hands sink so low.
If I'm an angel, why do these wings cut my throat?
What beauty lies here in this pile of broken bones?
Without you I would never know. -
1-2, 1-2-3-4
It's kinda strange that I think about you
But I can't complain, 'cause I really wanna love you
Say my name, but be careful
Not to break my heart (don't break my heart)
Call me crazy, but I believe that it would
Be amazing, to dream about the way that
We would gaze at the stars
That made us fall in love (fall)
But maybe I should find
A way to let you know
That even though you're gone
You have left me here alone
Well baby, you should try
To fix my heart before you go
Because my heart will always be your second home
She's the sky
The one that makes me feel so damn alive
And I believe that even when I die
Her clouds will bring me back to life (don't break my heart)
I'm the rain, and when I fall I feel a
Drop of pain, 'cause you don't catch me now
But it's okay, 'cause I will never break your heart (fall)
But maybe I should find
A way to let you know
That even though you're gone
You have left me here alone
Well baby, you should try
To fix my heart before you go
Because my heart will always be
My heart will always be
Well my heart will always be your second home
