JULIE
I wish I had known 
that you’d cut straight through my bone 
I’d learn to breathe without the smoke 

now the time is lost
and I can’t hold you in my arms 
without falling backwards

oh, julie,
my mind won’t love like I did for you again 
your lips kissed with a sweetness I didn’t own 
I had never known

when we first met I believed rage was a sin
you taught me that too 
and I got lost in hating you 
caught in a hopeless devotion 

oh, julie,
my mind won’t love like I did for you again 
your lips kissed with a sweetness I didn’t own 
I had never known

Melia - Julie

it was late but we held on tight 
in the night 
but i’ve never been quick to let it go 
let’s make things right 
you lied 

and i’m already gone 
it’s been too long 
and i can’t wake up 

only shadows hold us now 
and it’s too cold to bleed 
watch you numb 
dark eyes run too deep 

too fearful for sight 
you’re blind 
and i can’t watch you fade 
away 
you’ve lost your blood 
just hold me again 

leave me gone 
you’ll find more nests 

only shadows 
hold us now 
and it’s too cold to bleed 
watch you numb 
dark eyes run too deep

Melia - Holding Tight

2 weeks since you hypnotized me 
when i couldn’t breathe 
eyelids still heavy 
there’s no time i’m still melting 

soon your words slipped back in empty spaces i couldn’t fill 
i lost your touch
the dark that brought me chills 
now you’re trapped inside your own walls 
how does it feel to be prisoner 

you spilled your shadows over the phone 
i told you you can trust me 
lying like you always had before 
before i knew 

you wrapped my skin in plastic just to make me still 
if only you could’ve seen i was already dressed to kill 
you wouldn’t be trapped inside your own walls
how does it feel to be prisoner

Melia - Prisoner

left in the dark 
you’re happier in my shadows 
can’t take the part 
your eyes too hollow for this

where did it begin 
you’re younger in the mirror 
but covered in scars 

i’ll never hold you like she can’t 
like she never could x2

my mind gets lost
in the worlds i’ve sewn in my skull 
and there you aren’t gone 
your ghost runs through my blood 

break down your walls
you’ll find me in the mirror 
but covered in scars 

i’ll never hold you like she can’t 
like she never could x2

Melia - Left In The Dark

i am not locked 
no matter how many words 
are caught in my throat 

rather a stream of frozen thoughts 
resting 
beneath your ice caps 

melting 

slowly 
your knuckles whiten 
as fear traps in frost 
my lips too bitter for your softness 
drowning in expectations 
and my tongue moving opposite to your hands

MELIA
