Untitled by Lizzi Mote

Between broken shatters of a mirror i lie
Holding on to the lie that is my life
Wristful of reborn scars
mumbling to myself asking how im gunna make it through the fall
the voice in my head keeps lying to me
Convincing me it'll be okay
i love you more than words can say
and ill love you till my dying day
this is the message sprawled across my bedroom floor
i hold the key to happiness but i can't find the door
i dont want to be this way no more
i dont wanna feel this way no more
catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
and let it shine for yoo
let it shine for you

Where have you gone?
Are you coming back?
Why did you say those things to mee?
Why did you leave me here
  To fight alone?
Why did you leave me here
    To pick up the pieces?
Why cant you see,what's happening to meee?

i dont want to be this way no more
i dont wanna feel this way no more
catch a falling star and put it in your pocket
and let it shine for yoo
let it shine for you
i dont want to be this way no more
i dont wanna feel this way no more
I hold the key to happiness
But I cant find the door
All that I am
All that'll I ever be
Is here under this velvet sky
It's true what they say alcohol numbs the pain

This I who I am
This is who I want to be
Im gonna make it on my own
Im gonna take over the world
Me and the voice inside my head are doing just fine

This is it
The end of everything
The legend is DEAD!
Your times up
Its over now...

Here I lie on my black crucifix of unwritten sins
Here I lie on my unforgiven bed of nails again
What's the point in living, if you're living to DIE?
What's the point in anything?

My anger sings a bittersweet symphony
Titled "the story of my life"
It's a song I've heard before
And everyone's singing along
Miming the sorrows
With tears on their face
And I can't believe it's happened again.
