When I was a young one, someone told me that I could be anything I wanted to be. You can call me gullible but how could I have known? I was only ten years old.
As I've gotten older and started realizing none of this is true at all. I can be everything that I want to be so long as I can sell my soul. Work ten times harder earning my free time, live half a life, hell, it ain't mine. Do all you want and just so you know, I'll do the same and we'll get along.
Here I am
I can be everything that I want to be
For how long?
I don't know
Everyone, quiet, keep the blinds low
When I wasn't looking somebody mugged me then I felt a roar and a flash of cold. I must have been holding something amazing to make someone want it so bad they would kill.
But as I was rising the action was falling, the devil was picking at my toes. I let go of whatever was so amazing and I'm left with nothing but my soul.

I say “I love you”, she says “you love to easy”. I say “I miss you”, she says “too little, too late”. I say “I’m sorry”, she says “you’re so pathetic, why even love me when I treat you so bad?”
She sees it black and white but I’m just blue now. She sees it day and night but we’re stuck inside. We see no sunshine. There are no palm trees. Why won’t she love me?
I say “I hate you”, she says “please don’t do this.” I say “you hurt me”, she says “you deserved it.” I say “just leave” and she says “fine it’s over, I never loved you, didn’t you see that?”
I say “hello” and she says “please don’t hurt me.” I say “it’s ok, I’m broken just like you.” She says “I’ll trust you, just don’t make me hate you.” Her smile says everything, I hope that mine does too.
Now life is colorful. The sky is blue now. And any time of day she’s so full of light. I have my sunshine, I have my palm trees because you love me.
