Nightmare in disguise

You love me
Forever you say
I blossom
And you make me

You love me
Forever you say
I break
And you take me

Forever you say
Forever until I fall
Forever until I’m ugly
Forever until I’m wrong

What’s left of me now that you have my heart in your fist?

I thought I found a dream in you my dear
You’re just another nightmare in disguise

What’s forever?
A countdown to the day
That I’m no longer perfect
In your eyes


Don’t promise what you don’t know

Falling off the swing

I thought I lost my will,
‘till I got on that swing.

I swing and remember.

The rusted chains caress my tender skin.
There’s no screaming,there’s singing again.

They told me the gates are closing.
Now it’s time to make my way home.

I leave and remember.

It’s time to order a deep dish pizza.
I’m sat here in my chair, ready to fall.

No swinging, no caressing, no singing.
Just the sound of my body plummeting.

I've never felt so alone,
with the people in my head.

I thought I was alive,
'till I fell off that swing.
