it doesn’t hurt to look at your stuff anymore
i still wear your shirts sometimes
no matter what you’re doing out there
i hope you’re fine
even if you’re not with me
you still deserve to be happy

you were kind in so many ways
you were the greatest thing on my brain
and no matter where we are
i’ll always love you
even from afar

i want to tell you i’m sorry a thousand times
i just need to clear my mind
but i know the best thing i can do for you
is give you your space and time

i’m sorry i never loved you
in the way that you deserved
you were the one i looked to
and you gave me more than i deserved

if i could do it again, i would
but i don’t know if you think we should
i’m getting better, i can feel it
but i want you here to see it

you would be so proud of me
i want you to come back to me
it’s safe here i promise
i’m truly sorry about all this

in my last dream about you, you wanted to talk
i hope it means you miss me
we were interrupted by my alarm clock
but please call me

space n time

water by juan wauters

taking a walk down the road
where it goes
who knows
i'm here today feeling pretty good
i wouldn't walk the other way if i could 
this is a long and winding road
where i’ve had to learn what it's like to be grown
i've had fun now i'd like to stay young
i'd like to think of myself as a flower who's just sprung

now this is all rather new
i planted self love and happiness grew
now there's a garden in my head
that shows me life is better than being dead
tell me what i just said

now i'm done with the anger
the depression 
i wanna move one with my life
with the lesson 
that i should've stayed away
i should've stayed away
the day you went your way
i should've stayed away
you are so very tall
you drive me up a wall
i never wanted you to take that as sign at all
don't mean to put you in a bind
just trying to read your mind
hoping that you don't find
we were never gonna be alright

and all the thoughts that are in this room 
are the flowers that will surely bloom
and now i can truly say
without you here in my way
to love me 
to want me
to hurt me 
you cursed me
that i'm alright 
i'm alright

now this is all rather new
i planted self love and happiness grew
now there's a garden in my head
that shows me life is better than being dead
tell me what i just said

Lyrics:
if ice was warm
and winter could burn an iris to its core
cool is the warmest flame
it melts the blame
without shame
we cause violet fires, it seems-

-we’re but a dream
emerald eyes and purple skies
they gleam
mountain breeze, fall to me knees
i stare in admiration
familiar smell i know too well
a love that often bleeds

[chorus]
two more steps you’ll pass me by
and i’ll awake with tired eyes
my fear of loneliness is no surprise
i sit on a chalkboard roof
as skies turns a darker blue
i fill my lazy head with thoughts of you
i lit the violet fire to clean

in truth i lie
in a freezing bed of longing i hide
fool is the only name
that i’m to claim
we’re the same
so flows the violet flame again-

-there is rain
majesty and disbelief remain
holy means your soul’s pristine
unearthly man redeems
hubris of a god above
my own relief is love

[chorus]

you caused the violet fire
he caused the violet fire
i caused the violet fire in me

Violet Fire

the house that built me (cover)

where this goes

Olanzapine controls the enemy
Fixing what I do
And take you once a day to feel okay
To go far at what’s been inside

But I feel helpless somewhat dangerous 
Oh to myself, yes

If I had the time of day, I’d give all my pain
To not not sleep all day, to not feel this way

Drugs that say “Anti” make me less of happy okay

But I feel helpless
Somewhat dangerous 
Oh cause I want to hurt myself 
Oh myself

Olanzapine

for the love of my life :)

i am so in love with you and there is nothing i’d rather do than be with you
be with you
you are my best friend and there is nothing i’d rather do than talk to you
talk to you
gonna take me down
gonna spin around

you my dear are stained in songs of right and wrong 
of a story that is way too long
way too long 
but from here the world has never known our love from hate
because we’re known to oscillate 
oscillate in this town
gonna miss my clown
gonna kiss that frown
