im a paradox

i think every moment i spend with you
could always end in tragedy
but i still want you to want me
it's such a double standard
so scared you'll walk out on me
when half the time i wanna do the same
and everything just hurts my brain
it’s not because i don't love you
but because i know my heart's not true
but i still try and love the same
i hope you try to love the same
my soul is filled with envy
is that all you see in me
it's all i see in me
every time you talk to her
i feel all of my insides burn
and i know that i shouldn't be
but i am and will be for eternity
i wish i could change the stars
to make it so im not so far
but there's only so much i can do
to try and make it back to you
my soul is filled with fear
in me, is that all you hear?
in me it's all i hear
but in the case you don't love me
in my heart, i'll always be waiting
just in case you fall in love with her
i won't be angry, please just take my word
cause honestly i'll never be
capable to love somebody
i'm sorry dear to waste your time
so go and find a love better than mine

the autumn wind carries all of the ghosts, they catch on me and hide under his sheets, they make their nests in my clothing seams, possessing my bones and my being
we waited til the morning where the sun did rise, but the moon still lingered in his weary eyes, ghosts fill my head with such rotten things, and with the loneliness that the cold air brings
the room was dim so i doubt that he could see, my cold, shaking hands and my reddened cheeks, a part of me wished to crawl under his sheets but i sincerely doubted that we would sleep
so we waited til the morning where the sun did rise, but the moon still lingered in his weary eyes, betraying a good heart to satisfy mine but he’s a ghost i never thought i’d find

i wanna get high with you in my room
i want it to rain
i wanna stay in bed today
i will change my name
im counting down the weeks
until you come home
a miracle's gonna come save me
it's the only way
i wanna build a place in you
where i can be made new
i wanna sleep until it ends
i won't make new friends

That boy, take me away, into the night
Out of the hum of the street lights and into a forest
I'll do whatever you say to me in the dark
Scared I'll be torn apart by a wolf in mask of a familiar name on a birthday card
Blow out all the candles, blow out all the candles
"You're too old to be so shy," he says to me so I stay the night
Just a young heart confusing my mind, but we're both in silence
Wide-eyed, both in silence
Wide-eyed, like we're in a crime scene
Well I have brittle bones it seems
I bite my tongue and torch my dreams
Have a little voice to speak with
And a mind of thoughts and secrecy
Things cannot be reversed, we learn from the times we are cursed
Things cannot be reversed, learn from the ones we fear the worst
And learn from the ones we hate the most how to
Blow out all the candles, blow out all the candles
"You're too old to be so shy," he says to me so I stay the night
Just a young heart confusing my mind, but we're both in silence
Wide-eyed, both in silence
Wide-eyed
Cause we both know I'll never be your lover
I only bring the heat
Company under cover
Filling space in your sheets
Well I'll never be a lover
I only bring the heat
Company under cover
Filling space in your sheets, in your sheets
So, please just blow out all the candles, blow out all the candles
"You're too old to be so shy," he says to me so I stay the night
It's just a young heart confusing my mind, but we're both in silence
Wide-eyed, both in silence
Wide-eyed, like we're in a crime scene.

Skin off like lightning
Breathing flames from tourist trade
Your eyes go quite frightening
You lock your gaze on to my face
Heavy eyed
Crawling on the roadside
Swinging from the street lights
I hope by the morning I will have grown back
By the morning I will have grown back
I'll escape with him
Show him all my skin
Then I'll go
I'll go home
Amsterdam
I'm a flying kite in the breeze just
Restlessly seeking images a child needs to help them sleep
I've been thinking that I should see someone
Just to find out if I'm alright
By the morning I will have grown back
By the morning I will have grown back
I'll escape with him
Show him all my skin
Then I'll go
I'll go home
Amsterdam
I used to dream of
Adventure
When I was younger
With lungs miniature
But now we're killing
Our brain cells
Is this called living
Or something else
Or something else
By the morning I will have grown back
By the morning I will have grown back

By tomorrow we'll be swimming with the fishes
Leave our troubles in the sand.
And when the sun comes up,
We'll be nothing but dust,
Just the outlines of our hands
By tomorrow we'll be lost amongst the leaves,
In a wind that chills the skeletons of trees,
And when the moon, it shines, I will leave two lines.
Find my love, then find me.
Don't bring tomorrow
'cause I already know
I'll lose you
Don't bring tomorrow
'cause I already know
I'll lose you
I'll lose you
By tomorrow I'll be left in the darkness,
Amongst your cold sheets.
And your shoes will be gone,
And your body warmth no longer beside me.
But don't bring tomorrow
'cause I already know
I'll lose you
Don't bring tomorrow
'cause I already know
I'll lose
I'll lose
You

Come with me my love
To the sea
The sea of love
I want to tell you
How much I love you
Do you remember
When we met?
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I want to tell you
How much I love you
Come with me my love
To the sea
The sea of love
I want to tell you
How much I love you

I fell into the darkness
I wanted you to capture this in your mind
The way you trail your fingertips
Along the contours of my lips
After the night crawls in, comes in
I know there’s no place for me to be small again
The places that we find
They won’t mean nothing
To you (to you)
Broken conscience, open door
Walk through now (through now)
Take me to the start
Where we walk again
Five hundred miles along the same coast
After the night crawls in, comes in
I know there’s no place for me to be small again
The places that we find
They won’t mean nothing
To you (to you)
Broken conscience, open door
Walk through now (through now)
And she knows that I am
Some place else
Some place within
Come alive knowing it and knowing me
And now you’re in
And now you win
The places that we find
They won’t mean nothing
To you (to you)
Broken conscience, open door
Walk through now (through now)
