i was never your art project
i was never your love letter
you always had me when you needed me
for worse or for better
when i close my eyes
i see a kaleidoscope
and even if i didn't want to
i would still lose hope
i was never your art project
just in the right place at the right time
how could i have ever loved you?
when now you make me wanna die
when i close my eyes
i don't see your face
i see colours and lines
and empty space
all the butterflies have flown away
you've changed so much this year
and i'm still the same
and even if i cared, i wouldn't try
cos you'd never love my kaleidoscope eyes

still the same

i know you wish i was different
and i wish i was different too, you know
i feel ready to die
my body's giving in
but i'm really not ready to go
i'm so sick and tired
of feeling sick and tired
i wish i didn't cry every time i try and eat something
i'm scared of getting old
and i'm always cold
my stomach hurts, my back aches
i wanna change but i'm still the same
i really hate feeling like there's something wrong with me
but i'm tired all the time
and my health is pretty scary
i walk into things all the time
i fall down the stairs
i laugh and i cry
i'm so sick and tired
of feeling sick and tired
i wish i didn't cry every time i try and get some sleep
i'm scared of getting old
and i'm always cold
my headaches, my knee pains
i wanna change but i'm still the same
years of hard work and thinking i'm getting better
i don't wanna kill myself, but i wanna be someone else sometimes
i'm so sick and tired of feeling sick and tired
i wish i didn't cry all the damn time
i feel like mould, and i always feel so old
everything hurts, everything aches
i wanna change but i'm still the same

forever goodnight

if i could, i would sleep until i die
bathe in nothingness, simmer in the grey light
the void is unknown, the ether is an open door
nothingness is completely harmless, the future is an open door
my bedroom is empty, it's raw and it's real
i can feel the shadows lie still
there's a scab on my heart, i feel it start to peel
i'm not that strong, i'm not made of steel
no, i'm not that tough, i'm raw and i'm real
long sleeves won't hide the look on your face
the past is in the past, the memories can't be erased
you can try to block them out, ignore the lump in your throat
but at the end of the day, you meant what you wrote
my bedroom is empty, it's raw and it's real
i can feel the shadows lie still
there's a scab on my heart, i feel it start to peel
i'm not that strong, i'm not made of steel
no, i'm not that tough, i'm raw and i'm real
fetal position on the floor, there's no point trying to hide
my limbs are all rotten, my brain already died
i let the shadows swallow me, forever goodnight
cos they're the only thing that will ever hold me tight

another love song

i wish i could tell you how i feel
without ruining everything
i know you don't want me, why would you?
but i still write these songs that i hope you'll listen to
i'm sat on my bedroom floor again
writing another love song in my head
i wish i didn't like you, that's not what i mean
i just wish i liked you how you like me
so will you talk to me for a minute or two?
cos i have a thing for you
let me hear the things that i want to
cos i wrote another love song for you
