Give me enough to chase out these demons
To banish my thoughts, to calm my fears
Pour me a glass
And fuck all reason
Light up the darkness – Shatter these mirrors
I've tried to escape the world and its glory
Easy lies and shadows are all that it's known
So turn up the music
And tell me a story
Shelter the truth; I'm not ready to know
It's not enough to smile and shine through a lifetime
In order to laugh, you must know how to cry
Light up the candles
Close all the curtains
Night has descended, I'll teach you to lie
Break the reflections as they shine from the mirrors
Fuck all things that have never been said
I know that there's truth
I'm not willing to find it
Don't judge the voices, they live but they're dead
Walk through these halls and follow your sins
Bring me a drink, I'm thirsty and weak
Pour me enough,
To keep out my demons,
Find me a hole where I can shudder to sleep.

Do you feel the same?
I'm still just so lost
Can't believe my sadness
You shouldn't leave
What can I say?
I never felt this way
Tried to ignore it for months
I can't hide no more
Maybe it's too late?
My blush increases every second
You know I like someone
But you don't know it's you
Maybe it's true?
You make me smile
I talk happily with you
With you I feel safe and happy
Do you feel the same?

Something's Wrong
I don't cut myself anymore. I haven't since last summer, when the sun was so blindingly bright it perforated through my curtains and stained my eyes.
The cuts were on one forearm, deep and red and angry, all the way from elbow to wrist. I'd sometimes leave the flesh exposed, and watched as curious eyes flickered from my face to arm as we spoke. No one ever asked.
When the arm was too sore to slice with scissors I'd scrape away at the paint and plaster on my walls. I'd carve deep shapes and lines like limbs from a tree, reaching out over my head and clutching at the window.
The walls are painted deep purple now. I sat for hours and filled i

Don't Forget
I’m not even as half as strong
as I wish to be.
I’m not even a quarter of how clever
I’d like to be.
I’m not, I’m not, I’m not
oh so many things.
But I’m a million times better
then I was at the start,
a hundred times better
than I was ten years ago
and a fraction better than I was yesterday.
The things that defines me,
are what I’ve been creating all my life.
It’s the result of the mistakes and flaws
I’ve collected on my road
and the hope and courage
I’ve created for myself.
I’m not even a fraction
of what I wish to be
but it’s alright, I know it is.
Because as
