Phantom Pain
December felt like a daydream
Perfectly wrapped like presents under the tree
Words and lines belonging to a movie scene
Drowned the truth in lies, and I couldn’t hear their screams
But seasons change, winters turned to spring
And everybody’s up and moving on, except me
I’ve grown numb knowing not how to deal with grief
I journal and write romanticising a thief
Tell me how does the absence of someone else
Feel like the absence of myself
There’s an unnatural vacancy in my life
Carrying within myself something thats died
Sometimes I feel you but then remember your gone
Oh what a ghostly thing, alive and still haunts
I’m sick and tired of feeling this way
Losing a part of me, I thought would forever stay
Like phantom pain, as present as a ghost
The thing that’s missing is the thing you feel the most
Passion
There’s no more fire in your eyes
Like your passion fell into demise
Tell me who distinguished your fire
Who was it that drained your desire
Tell me what bank drew your blood
By who’s hand has this been done
Tried to swim but sunk instead
Got lost in my own head
You asked who drained the color from my eyes
Someone pulled the trigger, the trigger fingers mind
Roses
Your apologetic roses will no longer help
Can’t change the cards they’ve already been dealt
I gave you love but pain was all I felt
You felt like heaven but you also feel like hell
I took a lukewarm bath to wash you off my skin
But your painted fingertips left murals within
And I know it should be some unforgivin sin
That is still love you no matter what you did
Enough
I walk down the snowy street
I’m constantly wondering
Why can’t i find anything deep enough
To satisfy me
Every touch feels so empty
Are my expectations beyond me
Am I living for a dream that’ll
Never come true
I’ve always lived in the in betweens
Never stood on anything that was sturdy
Tell me will any one I ever love
Not hurt me
