1.
Waters frozen, a captive of stillness, my limbs are stiff. A tear of fear turned my dream to a cage. I have to run to keep myself calm. I never lied for a fake smile. I can’t stay still, I can’t stay still.
2.
Α2. Closure 01:59
Here’s to a song I never wrote. Screams hiding my words, screams hiding what I feel. Couldn’t stand myself, couldn’t stand hearing my thoughts. The tears I never shed, the closure I never wanted to get.
3.
While everything seems right, can’t stop asking myself why I can’t smile. 3 AM and I keep scratching my skin ‘till I bleed, every night. Never felt more alone. Like something is missing, surrounded by feelings I cannot give backx, all the faces I keep letting down. All the love that I’ve devoured gone in a glimpse, gone. All the love that I’ve devoured, gone in a glimpse, gone.
4.
Dug my share of graves, the first my own, with no name. So no-one will cry, no-one will spit. A grave with no name for my hands to rest, a grave with no name for my eyes to shut. Dug my share of graves, the first my own, with no name. And for me to finally rest, for me to finally forget. Your pain that I never cared for, your pain that I never carried.
5.
Mountains climbed with just one wish. A night’s sleep like a kid in peace. Hanging by a thread, wishing you never left, abandoned by hope, with my demons alone I cope. The kid inside, the only reason this is worth it, the days, the nights I spent. Down which road did my smile go? Down which road did my smile go?
6.
B2. Memory 02:40
Can someone come here? Hanging with pictures of my own cannot save my soul. I have long forgotten what caring is. A monument, a shrine, a grave, a memory of those I’ve left alone. I have long forgotten what caring is. A monument, a shrine, a grave, a memory.
7.
A watch hanging from a ceiling. It stopped at the time when feelings meant nothing. Asking for silence, as if it’s easy. Not to cry, not to laugh. As time stopped, feelings were lost, reduced to a simple never mind. But this time “for now” will turn into “forever”. A sweet surprise you didn’t know you longed for. This time “for now” will turn into “forever”.
8.
A bed of cement, a kid’s hope let down. Hugged by the tears that gave life an end. An end ongoing, a life fragile. Always searched for a stranger’s smile to help me, to help me quit my life-long suicide.
