I want to be the nightmare of your dreams And I want to be the monster of the sea cause I know you’ll never find me When you talk it fucking blinds me The worst day, guess my hairspray wasn’t strong enough to make you stay yeah people change, but my friends have always chose to stay the same And don’t look at me cause eye contact makes my eyes bleed And don’t wave to me cause I’ll take that offensively Offensively, you offend me I would let you in but you would see through me if you looked in my eyes so where are my sunglasses And I want to be the pothole in your street But then you crashed into me And i’m so sorry now that there’s no door in your drivers seat If you could only begin to breathe underwater then you could be best friends with me The worst day, guess my hairspray wasn’t strong enough to make you stay Yeah people change, but my friends have always chose to stay the same

Keep in tact Losing track of time Looking back on what we have prioritized cause i’m not getting better, I’m just giving in Hanging out all by myself I hate to think of you with someone else I’m not making bets, I just thought that we were closer You could rest your head on my shoulder You are out of my reach, but I saw you from where i'm standing Cause you are out of my reach, but I saw you Kill off the caterpillars and wonder why there are no more butterflies It all started in my living room in the safety of the scent of cheap perfume It took a second just to talk to you, now i'm so close to you I start thinking like you

Spiral 02:16
Every time you speak it is an echo of me So every time we talk we are pretending to be happy We’re not being completely honest, now are we It took some time to find a place to hide We’re caged in a room, but it’s not safe inside I try to remind you why we should stay alive, but i'd be wrong to say I’m right And I will read about your cursings, then I’ll let you sleep cause I feel sorry I’d be a different me to see you smiling And i’ll think of this until the morning

The glistening specks gazed down at our antics And I envisioned myself giving in to the impulse to hold you A somber spot blended into an abundance of flashing lights Your light drowned out the ebony. I grasped the idea of you admiring me nearly as much as you admired the path that held your hopes and dreams Is it dense of me to think you, so lively, could see a blink in a somber spot like me? I took you in, I observed your every incompetent move, your sweet innocence And it was so thoughtlessly that you killed me You kill me I grasped the idea of you admiring me nearly as much as you admired the path that held your hopes and dreams Gleaming, I hope you’re thinking of me Am I supposed to turn a blind eye, when you have got your eyes on me? I felt the air getting cold, you offered to share a seat I felt your heat,I felt your embers melting me And you’re melting me You’re killing me I felt your embers melting me But you omit my attention and my energy Although your words are murmured, they’re endearing I thought that maybe if I could charm you, you’d notice me But you omit my attention and my energy
5.
I don’t think that you should help me Cause I may try but I give up to easily Constantly not believing in anything I don’t think that you should try and help me out I don’t think that you should help me out You say i'm smart if I would only apply myself And it takes time to figure some things out And I know, and i’ve been waiting so damn impatiently That I rush you when you’re driving, so I lay down in the back seat And I can’t wait till I make so much money so I can buy you anything you need I’m just tired of waiting for time to make me better I’m just tired of waiting for you
