Reservoir - Lyrics

Always feel like I’m running 
Out of time 
Always at the brink of losing
My mind
I’m searching but I’m afraid
Of what I might find
Staring at the hills
As my tears well up my eyes
My valour dies
Surprised? Well, I’m not surprised

Always feel like nothing’s mine
Always trapped inside 
of my own mind
Broke my back reaching 
For the star
Cried so much I filled a reservoir 
There is violence 
In my silence
All is crashing down
Underwater
Drifting further
I won’t overcome
Not this time.

RESERVOIR

Reaching For Acrux

dreams have never felt so far
it's like my heart is ripped apart

but I was there
I had a taste
what it be like
what it be like

doubt lays heavy on my mind
then I lose faith
I can't escape
this dark place frustrates
'cause I know that I know that

I've been there 
the stars aligned
I had a taste
what it be like

then I open eyes
just realize that I've been laying
my mind was just playing
and I wish apon a star
wherever you are 
come and find me 
I need you behind me

there.

In lights

Saw my name in lights
(But I was there)
I swear I know what it's like
(I had a taste)
If it's a dream I hope I don't wake
(what it'd be like)
If I wake up it would be a mistake
(What it'd be like)

I had a taste 
The stars aligned

Chapters close and new ones open
We're always transforming 
We just don't notice

It's the way of life
We learn and we burn 
We laugh and we cry
And we live and die
Way of life
We learn and we burn 
We laugh and we cry
And we live and die

And we live and die
And we live and die
We learn and we burn
We learn and we burn

OCEANS ((lyrics))

La di da dae
Can't be this way
You're oceans, planets, galaxies
You finally realised you don't need me

I'll let you be 
Can't stand this frequency
'Cause I gotta be true to me to be true to you
'Cause I gotta be good to me to be good for you
And I gotta love myself so I can love you too

So please don't walk away
When I tell you

I can't think straight
You ain't in my space
You're oceans, planets, galaxies
You gotta tell me if I've done something
You gotta tell me if it meant nothing

'Cause I (×3)

Not gonna move mountains
Not gonna drain oceans 
I'm just gonna lay here
I'm just gonna lay here

I'll just let the water 
Let the water take me 
Wherever it wants to
Wherever it wants to

I always warp
Against the storm
Watch as I float
Don't waste your rope
Just lemme be 
One with the sea

Wall Of Fog((lyrics))

A wall of fog's
around my head
And I feel dead
Though I push ahead

I try to keep within 
The light
Though I stray
I'll find my way

It feels as though
There's no release
But I want peace
So I'll slay the beast

I want you to know
I'm letting go
Of being free
It don't come cheap 
Yeah happiness
Don't come cheap
It's out of reach
It's make believe

A wall of fog's 
Around my mind 
And I can't find
No peace of mind

It feels as though 
I'm in outer space
And out of place
I'm such a disgrace

---------Afraid(poetry)----------
I'm afraid
I'm afraid of the depths of my mind
I'm afraid of what I may find
I'm afraid my life is a lie
I AM AFRAID
I'm afraid I may find that
I'm not who I want to be
And I'll never be
I AM AFRAID
I'm afraid that my visions 
Of living free
Are just a distant fantasy
And my reality 
Is just slavery

teen angst coming soon.

Lyrics

I don't know you
But I'd like to
When I first saw you
There was something about you

Threw me off balance
A brand new challenge
What is it about you?
What is it about you?

I just wanna know 
Who are you?
And why are you so cool? (x2)

For a second
The sun 
Tried to compete with your eyes
For second
Time slowed down 
And the whole town
Went upside down

So I'd like to know
Who are you?
And why are you so cool?( x2)

For a second
A brand new challenge
Threw me of balance

Why are you so cool?

I'm not looking down on ya
But get off the ground
There's so much to be found
The first time that I saw ya
You were a jungle flower
Growing in the gutter

I'd be such an ugly sight
To see you go to waste
To see you go to waste
Such an ugly sight
To see your pretty face
To see it go to waste

I'm not looking down on ya
But how ya gonna grow
With darkness in your soul?
Cause the first time that I saw ya 
You had a god's beauty
In the midst of all this cruelty

I'd be such an ugly sight
To see you go to waste
To see you go to waste
Such an ugly sight
To see your pretty face
To see it go to waste

Because you're a star
And you can shine way bright
Than you are
Everybody's stuck 
Everybody's caught up in their mess
We just fall apart when being begins to test
But when things fall apart
You can heal anybody body
With you heart

But it's such a shame
To see you've gone to waste
Yeah it's such a shame
To see your pretty face
To see it's gone to waste
