and don't turn away
cause i'm a little bit lost without you
until this day
i could hardly walk without you
i swear i tried, to keep you pushed away
i blurred the lines, alone on a saturday
the song you sang, left your voice in my head
it's all the same, i guess we got lost in my bed
and i don't know, i guess i'm alone again
but i don't care, at least you're home again
you need to know that i was wrong
i hope you know that
i wanted to say, that i fucked up again
cause i was afraid, i guess you knew me all too well
better than i knew myself
i sang a song you'd love. i hoped
just so you might come back home
i felt the words sink back into my throat
i saw you holding back, and i have never felt so cold
you left a note for me, it sat beside my bed
on the dresser drawer, i'll never forget what it said
it said
"i will always love you, and that will never change- NEVER change. i promise"

Into Focus

i want to find myself, i want to go to london
see a world i've never seen, maybe crash into the ocean
i want to see myself, reflected in a mirror
you could open up my world, i could see into the future
what you needed was a friend, what i needed was a lover
so we couldn't find ourselves, but at least we have each other
i guess that i'm still scared, of the lightning and the thunder
but i told you i woud help, help you get out from your mother
i saw your body, stretched out across the sheets
it was at that moment, you became a part of me
i guess i'm still scared, but i swear i'm not a coward
cause i'm still here, through the minutes and the hours
you helped me find myself, you brought me back into focus
before i met you i was lost, and God i was hopeless
"so whether it's a waterfall or a wild flower
i'm the happiest with you"

when we got the news, you wept
and i sat on the porch with a cigarette
holding my breath until i found the words to say
and when it was through, you said
you wouldn't be mad if i left
but i don't ever want to hear you speak that way
i had to be strong enough
to carry the weight for both of us
and I swore to you i'd never been so sure
it wouldn't be long before
the world crashed through your door
and i don't wanna hear your mom cry anymore
and what am i saying this for?
i wasn't upset with you
i just needed time to to think it through
if i could get my head on straight, i'd be okay
i'll never forget the mood
when we hooked you up in your living room
and all the drugs you took could barely hide your pain
the things that they said were true
incontinent pain that followed through
all of the poison that they pumped into your veins
you had to be fed with spoons
and it took all my strength just to look at you
it was a daily war to watch you waste away
i've never been so afraid
your absence of breath had left
a fissure that grew in my chest
and it slowly worked it's way into my head
i couldn't accept your death
or the letter you left by the side of my bed
and my body shook with every word i read
you said "don't be sad, at all. you have to stay strong and there was pain, but that's all gone. i know what you think- but you're wrong. the world will just spin on, so hold your head up high and keep me in your thoughts. i'll never forget the way you made me feel so safe
and now i know that i will be with you someday.. you're going to be OKAY"

well i wish i was the one who saw the ground
when it was turning inside out
and i could tell you i was there
that i could be the one who came around
and turned your whole world upside down
and threw your plans into the air
tectonic plates would then divide
and split apart a thousand miles wide
and you would tell me you were scared
well i will haunt your dreams
like a watchdog in the night
i'll lay beside you as you sleep
i'll be your skeleton
and i will seep into your bones
like a disease through broken skin
well i wish i was the one who saw the sky
before it lost its brilliant shine
then i could tell the night from day
but the stars they are just lights that cut their way
into the corners of the night
and they will soon begin to fade
we saw the towers tumble down
and listened to that cold and distant sound
i watched their bodies fall through space
well i will haunt your dreams
like a watchdog in the night
i'll lay beside you as you sleep
i'll be your skeleton
and i will seep into your bones
like a disease through broken skin
like a thousand shining lights
i would burn my way into your mind
like an island in the cold and lonely sea
i know you would find a home with me
well we're living in a hole
that someone dug for us a million years ago
we dig it further every day.
