Dreamcatcher

Woke up in a sweat again
Skyline stares back in the grey
Still there, my quiet 3am friend
It asks how long I've been this way
I’ve got tears in my dreamcatcher
I’ll try to fall asleep on my own
This is about me and me and me
How could I neglect the sun?
It isn’t like I couldn't see, see, see
At some point this just stopped being fun
Dreams of falling teeth and pouring rain
Pull the curtains back
I’ve been living my nightmare all this time
Hiding in bedroom shadows from the pitch black
My dreamcatcher is all bent up
I’ve learned to fall asleep on my own
This is about me and me and me
how could I neglect the sun?
It isn’t like I couldn't see, see, see
At some point this just stopped being fun

sad soul
haven’t you slept well?
shapeshifter
look in my eyes, well,
I know you better now, better now
Watch my back I back away
Watch my back I watch my back now
So long sweet expectations
some people never love how we need
hello dear hindsight
some people never love
how they need
time lapse
I haven't slept well
burglary of memory
look in my eyes, i
hold your gaze just to break it, just to break/ it/ off
watch my back i back away
watch my back i watch my back
I know you better now
but how could you find joy in your “suspense" at my expense?
so long sweet expectations
some people never love
so long sweet expectations
some people never love how we need
hello dear hindsight
some people never love
how they need
how they need
Never love never love, never love never love

Looks like you’re having fun out there
Golden glare and shared rent
Exposed in short bursts through a tiny frame
Filled with unmedicated entertainment
Toss back a dose of fun
Raise a glass and laugh with everyone
And make sure to tell yourself
That you will never need a thing from us or where you came from
But please remember they love you just the same

Lavender Walls

Hide and seek, run and go
It isn’t always easy to know
To open up the door
When you’ve been bruised, misused and more
I’m okay, but I’m done
It’s hard to trust most anyone nowadays
I was turned around, emptied out
Tentative, but then I met you
And now I have you
And I will, I will remember you fondly
When summer turns to fall
You’ll remember me, hopefully
Whenever you need someone just call
You smile wide, picturesque
A moment locked away with the rest
You said “I see you standing tall, someday
In a sunny room with lavender walls,”
You remind me of the sun
Was hard to trust most anyone back then
I was turned around, emptied out
Tentative, but then I met you
And now I have you
And I will, I will remember you fondly When summer turns to fall
You’ll remember me, hopefully
Whenever you need someone call me
you can call me cause
I will, I will remember you fondly
When summer turns to fall
You’ll remember me, hopefully
Whenever you need someone call me
And if you come across some lavender walls
Remember it all
