And soft was there a stutter, that steers the heart away from the pain, Serenades the waters and carries me under... "A Stutter" by Olafur Arnalds
Insidious as blind inception. What's reality with all these questions? Feels like I missed my alarm and slept in, slept in. Broken legs but I chase perfection. These walls are my blank expression. My mind is a home I'm trapped in. And it's lonely inside this mansion. "Mansion" by NF
He sits and he waits, Feeling broken and hollow. Hands held close to his face. Screaming, 'Why do I bother? They'll just tear me down, Rip me apart, cast aside like a sinner With no words from the wise. Will you ever learn, will you ever learn, will you ever learn, learn to listen?' Broken Generation by Of Mice & Men
Home is my prison, at the centre, a magnet. It is the negative and it steals my positive. Dragged under, the magnet falls, the dust gathers beneath swaying walls. But from the dust, my light, a tiger with eyes bright as moons, sweeps me up from the mountain, I cling to its fur. Rushing fast beneath me I fall and skid. In the middle of the road the sky soaring over my head, and I can only dream of bed. A siren sounds, I dash for the trees, the searching millipede crumples along, nearly sees me. A crack of light, the trees smash over, I leap for a clearing but now I'm in the cliffs of Dover. Over looking the ocean, the waves dance up, dragging me under, there is no place safer than to just blunder.
Is it me? Is it really me? I cannot stand myself Sometimes I hate myself for what I've done Sometimes I hate myself for who I am Sometimes I hate myself for what I've lost Sometimes I hate myself for what went wrong Misguided by myself - full of fatal pride Always gone too far - always over the edge So full of arrogance - too blind to see the outside world Running in circles - so bored of life Is it me? Is it really me? I cannot stand myself I against me, me against myself I have become my enemy number one I against me, me against myself I have become my enemy number one I'm feeling so useless - I'm raping my mind Sometimes I hate myself for being blind Fighting myself - what will it be? Sometimes I hate myself for hating me Sometimes I hate myself for thinking twice Sometimes I hate myself without compromise Full of broken dreams - always on the run Crushed by myself - I come undone I Against Me by Agonoize
Close your eyes, I'll forgive you, now is your chance to repent, remember how it feels cos' I was once like you, just a fool who thought they knew it all stumbling in the dark
I'll be there someday, I can go the distance I will find my way if I can be strong I know every mile, will be worth my while When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong - Extract from Go The Distance by Michael Bolton (From the movie Hercules)
When you can't take anymore Just retreat Don't raise your voice! Keep it to yourself They won't understand Not everyone smiles Stop asking questions "What's wrong?" "I'm okay." Hold up your weapons! Declare loudly! Every day's a battle And one that I will win Come on, come on You make it seem so easy Playing your games of Catharsis, They call you heartless An artist of deceit A refugee!!!! -Excerpt from, "Refugee" by (Me)
I want you to use yourself, like you never ever used it before (never) To explore my body (explore it baby) Until you reach the shore, I'll be calling, calling for more Excerpt from Rock The Boat - Aaliyah
I am a man with a heart that offends with its lonely and greedy demands. There's only a shadow of me; in a matter of speaking I'm dead.
"Lean with it, rock with it When we gonna stop with it? Lyrics that mean nothing We were gifted with thought Is it time to move our feet to an introspective It ain't speakers that bump hearts It's our hearts that make the beat" Twenty one pilots - Holding On To You

Peace is impossible No matter what it seems Someone's killing someone Even in your dreams (Funker Vogt)
Time has changed the seasons. And I will go on with no reason, I feel my life slipping away. These streets are getting colder, and I am growing older. Tomorrow seems so far away. What's become of us, friend? We were one til the end. Now I'm alone in the streetlight gleam. This town knew our names, but nothing's the same. The places I played have forgotten the dream. I can't let it go, alone in the night, I know I must fight for my home.
"Helplessness Blues" - Fleet Foxes I was raised up believing I was somehow unique Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes, unique in each way you can see And now after some thinking, I'd say I'd rather be A functioning cog in some great machinery serving something beyond me But I don't, I don't know what that will be I'll get back to you someday soon you will see What's my name, what's my station, oh, just tell me what I should do I don't need to be kind to the armies of night that would do such injustice to you Or bow down and be grateful and say "sure, take all that you see" To the men who move only in dimly-lit halls and determine my future for me And I don't, I don't know who to believe I'll get back to you someday soon you will see If I know only one thing, it's that everything that I see Of the world outside is so inconceivable often I barely can speak Yeah I'm tongue-tied and dizzy and I can't keep it to myself What good is it to sing helplessness blues, why should I wait for anyone else? And I know, I know you will keep me on the shelf I'll come back to you someday soon myself If I had an orchard, I'd work till I'm raw If I had an orchard, I'd work till I'm sore And you would wait tables and soon run the store Gold hair in the sunlight, my light in the dawn If I had an orchard, I'd work till I'm sore If I had an orchard, I'd work till I'm sore Someday I'll be like the man on the screen
Hold me close to your flame I need to feel your pain And in my absence they’ll send an angel your way As the light fades from my eyes Don’t you cry, they’re here for me Just take my hand while I take my fucking life Take My Hand While I Take My Life by Psyclon Nine
Nobody said it was easy. No one ever said it would be so hard. Oh take me back to the start. Colplay's "The Scientist"
"I'm riding on the night train and Driving stolen cars Testing my nerves out of the boulevard Spontaneous combustion on the Corners of my mind Leaving in the lurch And I'm taking back what's mine I'm on a mission In the destination unknown An expedition In the desolation road Where I'm a... Castaway - going at it alone Castaway - now I'm on my own Castaway - going at it alone Castaway - now I'm on my own Lost and found, trouble bound Castaway" Castaway by Greenday
Your face looks so green When the sun is shining differently And you're standing in the shade 'Cause face to face you're sweet Like candy sticking to my teeth But underneath so damaging There is no strength in trying to break me, no I don't want to care And I don't want to hate And I don't want to see you fall too far away All because of fear 'Cause when you're afraid You lash out at me When you say all the things that you never meant to say And try to break me (Essentially these lyrics represent how I'm stupid and won't take a toxic person out of my life)
