oh my cod I'm excited for this Lainey piece I love her more and more as I develop her character
-
this one also looks nice -
it's gotta hurt
all the power that you don't have
it's gotta burn
I bet you're raging inside, well.
I can't feel sorry for you
you did what you wanted to do. -
Wake me up
when you have nightmares.
If you sit up shaking in your bed
and the dark is haunting
and if the faces in your dreams
might be hiding there
I want to be the first to know.
Wake me up if the monsters get to you
before you even fall asleep.
If you lie in bed and stare in silence
at the ceiling and think too much,
if you have to empty your mind
to silence the ticks
just so you can fall asleep tonight,
if you have to turn on a light
or go pace somewhere
while you wait for your breathing to slow,
if you can't calm your heart or
you frighten yourself
thinking about your future,
I want to know.
I need to know.
Come wake me up if you're afraid,
Even for a second.
If you don't want to close your eyes
for the third night in a row
and if the bedposts all feel miles apart,
like you're lost in the heart
of a wide open space,
wake me up.
I don't care.
I won't miss the sleep,
but you know I'll miss you.
Wake me up if you start to worry
or your skin starts to crawl
or if you think the ceiling might
collapse in on you.
Wake me up if you start to feel empty,
or if the thunder scares you.
Wake me up if you feel cold under
a heap of blankets.
I don't care at all.
Come crawl in bed beside me
if it'll keep you together.
If it'll make you feel safe,
warm,
loved.
If you'll feel better at all
come wake me up.
I'll hold onto you as long as you'll let me.
I'll never let the dark hurt you.
I'll take as much of that fear onto myself
as I can manage.
I will never tell you,
"Just go back to bed."
I will never turn you away.
And in the morning,
if you need me still,
I'll stay there as long as it takes
for you to get yourself together.
I'll give entire days to you.
I don't care at all.
All of my time is yours anyway.
I just need you to be okay.
If the nightmares follow you
when you walk out the door in the morning,
run back to me.
I'll be here for you.
Wake me up from any dream I'm in
because the alternative is living a nightmare without you. -
I'm pretty sure you're a white girl so
you know
just chill with that word -
The locusts took over my brain.
I'm not living for you, I'm just living,
so hill with your guilt.
You hope for sun, I want rain.
We just tear down the walls in the
home that our jealousy built.
You're not as pretty as you maybe think that you are.
It's been watching you.
Your slips and slurs and play on words
all fall from your mouth.
Each mutter rolling, dripping from your tongue.
My plague's begun.
This thin man has started to fade.
You won't be living for long, so just
fly with me, die with me, babe.
They all swim while I drown.
They just dig up the dirt and
bury us into the ground.
You're not as special as you maybe think that you are.
It's been watching you.
Your slips and slurs and play on words
all fall from your mouth.
Each mutter rolling, dripping from your tongue.
My plague's begun.
Why is it I love you so much and all you do is
hate, hate, hate everything you've become? -
can I post a drawing here
just this once
not in this thread but the lounge -
*chill with your guilt
dammit -
You can't make a new thread in the Lounge just for your art. If you have an official thread here that you'd maybe want to post it in, I've got no qualms with that.
-
okay
wait I'm confused
i can make an official thread for it here
like the one i have in the workshop? :D -
No. No threads for art in here. What I'm saying is that, for example, if I were to post some of my art in here occasionally, it'd be cool, because it doesn't take up any more space in the Lounge and the thread is mine anyway. Similarly, if you have an official thread of your own here, you can post your stuff there. Just don't take up more space in the Lounge or post it in other peoples' threads just so they'll see it.
-
lol yes that's definitely it
-
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you,
cuz I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you.
Don't you know? Don't you know?
True friends stab you in the front.
It's funny how things work out.
Such a bitter irony,
like a kick right to the teeth.
We fell apart right from the start,
but I couldn't even see
the forest for the trees.
I'm afraid you asked for this!
You got a lot of nerve!
But not a lot of spine!
You made your bed when you
worried about mine!
This ends now!
I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you.
Cuz I'll forget, but I'll never forgive you.
And don't you know? Don't you know?
True friends stab you in the front.
It's kind of sad, cuz what we had?
Well, it could have been something.
I guess it wasn't meant to be.
So how dare you try to steal my flame
just cuz yours faded?
Well, hate is gasoline.
A fire fueling all my dreams.
I'm afraid you asked for this!
You got a lot of nerve!
But not a lot of spine!
You made your bed when you
worried about mine!
This ends now! -
