The Ground

It’s been so long since I’ve sang
Words to you about something
And it feels like I am falling down
I should have hit the ground by now
I reach for you as I fall
You’re never there but where you are
And it’s ok I understand
We hold the weight of the world in our hands
And no one can help me now
I’ve already hit the ground
some could say that i was wrong
i’ve lied to you when i sang you songs
im not the man i used to be
invisible but I can see
I remember nights inside head
black and blue from things we said
I woke up with nobody there
it wouldn’t mattered if I cared
and no one can help me now
I’ve already hit the ground
I swear to you ; I held on tight
watched the fall , lost the fight
and everytime I see you now
time sits still ; I don’t know how
I put myself inside this room
between these walls my mind consumed
I closed my eyes and took the leap
if I should die my soul to keep
and no one can help me now
I’ve already hit the ground
and no one can help us now
I’ve already hit the ground

In My Dreams

Well I know I had it coming
I brought it on myself
I fell in love with you again
Right before you left
Let’s put a pot of coffee on
And travel to the past
Caus even when I fell for you
I knew it couldn’t last
In my dreams, you’re always there
In my mind , you’re everywhere
And in my heart , there’s a place for you
And I don’t, know what to do
and I know that I had always
Thought we were something else
Now it’s hard so hard to say to you
That I only told myself
And It’s scares me to death
To think about you here
And all those times I wished for it
Was just something that I feared
I know you’ll never see and
I see you’ll never know
How hard that I tried
I begged to let you go
And every time I killed myself
i never seemed to die
I just wiped away the tears
With your memory in my eyes
--------------------------
Breakdown (In audible)
---------------------------
Now all this time has passed
And these words will linger on
Just Sing with me tomorrow
Forgot me when I’m gone
I never thought I’d need you
I dream of things I would say
years have made strangers
But I’ll always know your name
