Blindin',
Flash of yellow,
Lying slightly
Below the skin.
Windin',
Like a halo,
In a spiral around your head.

It's like a bomb inside the bomb.
It's like a bomb inside the bomb.
It's like a bomb inside the bomb.

Layered,
Like an onion,
Always peeling
Back again.
Tiered,
Russian doll skin,
It's fuckin' deadly
Is what it is.

Blue birds fly over my head
Wet dreams swimmin' 'round my bed
Eyes closed, 11:11
Hoping you will stay
Fingers cross when I kiss you
Knocking wood when I miss you
Acting like a teenage fool when you are with me

Superstitiously, I'm watching my words
All of my words
Now
Like a birthday wish
Don't say it out loud
Never out loud

Yeah I want to tell everyone
That you are, you are my only one
Screaming at the top of my lungs
But I'm whispering, I'm whispering, I'm whispering
'Cause I don't wanna jinx it

In the night, in the cold
it comes on
pain like a searing light
cuts like a dull knife
are you awake?
can I come now?

This Be the Verse
Philip Larkin

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.

I'm sorry.

"She wasn't bitter. She was sad, though. But it was a hopeful kind of sad. The kind of sad that just takes time." – Stephen Chbosky (The Perks of Being a Wallflower)

Then the time for being sad is over
And you miss 'em like you miss no other
And being blue is better than being over it

All you sinners stand up, sing hallelujah (hallelujah!)
Show praise with your body
Stand up, sing hallelujah (hallelujah!)
And if you can't stop shaking, lean back
Let it move right through ya (hallelujah!)
Say your prayers

Help I'm alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Hard to be soft
Tough to be tender
Come take my pulse the pace is on a runaway train
Help I'm alive
My heart keeps beating like a hammer
Beating like a hammer

you'll ride towards the sun
as it guides you home
but don't be afraid little bird
you aren't alone
a hoard of friends
will keep darkness at bay
you're the needle
in the hay

I never wanted to go home
Wanderlust will carry us on
There was nothing there for me
Wanderlust will carry us on
In a high rise on my own
I've been ...highways for so long
Looking out in a mirrored balcony
Wanderlust will carry us on

Combat baby come back baby
Fight off the lethargy
Don't go quietly
Combat baby
Said you would never give up easy
Combat baby come back

Get back in town I wanna paint it black
Wanna get around
Easy living crowd so flat
Said it all before
They try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
I want to be wrong but
No one here wants to fight me like you do

I lost my crown
When it hit the ground
With an almighty thud
I went to pick it up
But revealed my weaknesses to the crowd

And I lost my home
When I lost my throne
To a successor
With far more expansive plans
Than I ever did
I abdicated
