FKA Twigs - Cellophane (COVER)

My eyes are as dry as burnt pies
And my heart, swims around like a lava lamp
Winnebagos make the road seem so small
But the journey upstairs is quite damned

Headlights behind me never cease to exist
Yet this journey is needed for my escape 
(she is needed for my escape)

Smoke piles the aisles
While red eyes go wild
But teen girls never breathe room for mistake
(i love my girl and her mistakes)

Bubblegum and kiss me
Knives and lips have missed me
But punch me in my heart chambers again
(she lives in my chamber again) 

Driving down the mountain
Deers have hit my fountain
But their innocence still lingers in me
(she still lingers in me)

Grab the box in positives
Leave the park with oz in it
But smoke the caterpillar away
(she’s running away)

Things have shrunk inside of my head
Yet memories want to stay

Travel back up that mountain
she looks the other way

And smoke arises in me
Came to draw the blood from within me 
But it was all only 
just a simple dream in the end 

it’s just a dream in the end.

Lo-fi Love Story Poem

I’m hoping 
That words that you said to me
Won’t fade away (won’t fade away)
I’m holding 
Onto the love you gave
To me today...

Ooooo....(x2)

I’m wishing 
That all that we promised has 
Not gone to waste 
In hoping
The words that we’ve said tonight 
Won’t be in vain 

Ooooo....
Oooooh!

I’m scared to know
What the future holds
But I’ll sit along for the ride
Next to you
Is what I’ll do
Unless you tell me otherwise

I’m sensing
That thoughts that we’ve shared have
Stuck to me (stuck to me)
In learning 
That all that I’ve feared is
Within me...

I am...

Stop

Do you hear me?
I’m trapped in here
I’m scared
They won’t get out of my head
I just want this to stop, please
Where are you?

I want to sleep
But I can’t dream of you
I need to breathe
But I’m sinking down now

Speech is all I had 
But now I’m out of words to say
And all I did was try
But then you slipped away

Oooooooooooo

Could it have been better?
Did I not cry enough?
If I let you in my heart again
Will you bury me up?

To be this doll
With this colors I can’t perform for us
Am I wrong to want
The thing that my heart needs 
Is whats killing me 

Ooooooooooooo

This will haunt you forever
No, I won’t hurt you now 
My wings have flown away from me
I need to re-learn how 

To breathe 
On this ocean floor
I can’t scream
Cause I’m scared to soar
Back up
Only to drown
Again

Could I have been better?
Did I not give enough?
If I let you in my heart again
Will you bury me up?

To be this doll
With these smiles I can’t perfect for us
Am I wrong to want
The thing that my heart needs
Is what’s haunting me 

Tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight! Ooooh!

Oh no, oh no, oh no,
God, no! 

Where did I go wrong?

(Prayer in Spanish)

Her Ocean's Lullaby

Lyrics:

Do you remember those late nights?
Being at your window 
Waiting for you to come out 

I’d be dressed in all black 
And you brought your best smile
Though nothing was ever on track

Then the story tore
And we had to re-start
You say it was your fault 
But your words have made me doubt
How can I believe you
When you’ve looked me dead straight
And told me you’d rather leave this world
Then look me in the face

And you make me so happy now
But I feel all alone 
Years of nights spent crying 
Just to wish that you know
And though darkness has drained you quite bare
I’ve always been here x2

Now my heart is so heavy  
And my bed is still empty 
Your eyes don’t look the same 
But I miss you
Please, don’t blow out this flame x2

So, before you call me insecure 
As if I’ve lost my mind
We both saw what happened
It simply built over time 

Now fear grips at the floor
And memories haunt these doors
And all I can do
Is wait to see 
Whether you love me 
Or if this all was just a dream

Puncture the bruise that you left 
So I can feel anything thats you 
And give me that look that makes me feel young again
You know just what to do 
Just what to do, yeah, yeah

Hide hurt with paint 
And numb pain with smoke
Color the roses red until you find your way back home 

Please don’t go
Don’t leave me, I swear 
Your eyes don’t look the same
But I don’t care
I miss you
God, I miss you
Dear, I miss you
But do you miss me too?

God, I hope you do

Estoy esperando
(I’m waiting)

From Her Eyes

If I could say
All of the words 
To make this pain of yours
Go away forever
 
Wait

Just break to me, darling
Don’t lift that dagger from me right now

Stop 

What the hell are you doing?
The light is almost chasing us down

You drown in your sorrows
Everyday you’re too tired to breathe

Can’t make it all better
But I can promise you one simple thing

You’re doing alright
(Please just cry)
Please let it all out
You’ve been fighting too long
To keep it inside
Where will you go when your soul is too tired?
(Where will you go when your soul is too tired?)

Baby
Come and find me
Please call me your friend
I know you’re too modest 
To make a silly, little sound

This isn’t the end
So break in my arms
I’ll tie them up for you
So you can escape

But make a path for me
So I know where to go
Don’t leave me standing back here (Don’t leave me back here)
Cause I need you to know (you to know) 

We don’t need to fight 
To get through all these stories 
(Fuck these stories)

Please speak to me deeply
Doesn’t need to be heavy

At least tell me bout’ the day that you’ve been having

Please let me in
Because I am waiting for you
And when your mind gets dark
Find your heart, I’m there too

Let Me In

It was that familiar smell of summer
With pain that sent her over the edge 
Had you cared so little that she felt this way? 
Actions overwhelm differently than words 
Oceans of tears ignored
I wouldn’t want to bother you too much 
Maybe the deeper the injury, your eyes would see 
Memories haunt me, pleading to breathe 
Minuscule reasons that led me to bleed
Actions of compassion distorted 
Until there’s nothing left to believe 
Feeling all of this fury, “Why isn’t she listening to me!?”
Maybe the spill overs of words
And promises had torn her sanity 
Am I so small to you that my cries aren’t emergencies?
Help me, help me
I’ve helped you up when you were dragging me 
God forbid I run to destruction 
Now, I am a doll with too many needs 
Has my heart poured too much love? 
That it needs to be taken from me
Better fit for a king than a girl with nothing to please 
Do I really deserve this? 
A martyr to you I seem
Or I’m just completely small
That I’ve lost my mask to breathe

Unforgotten Memories

She is poetry in a world that forgot how to speak. She is made up of depths the ocean cannot fathom.
