Spark
I don’t want love I just want to feel and see sparks Like a faulty cable Sparks flying between out lips and teeth And intertwined tongues I know I’ll end up getting electrocuted or burnt But for now I will enjoy the fireworks And the bonfire will come later I want to have my heart…

I will be good
I’ll be good, one day. I won’t need to call you in tears crying about all the wasted years and how they were all for nothing. I won’t need to stack up the pills, or make sure there’s always something, pointy or sharp. I’ll be good, good enough to be able to laugh and not…

Glamourise
Sorry for making it sound beautiful I know its not something to be proud of But its part of me So I will write it in imagery Like the roses pouring out of my skin Or the thought of me drifting into the starless night The endless sky I’m not trying to glamourise it But…

wreaking ball
I don’t want to be the wreaking-ball Smashing down feelings every time they get built But you said when you first met me that I was and that you knew I would be the one to tear you down It just took a year too long but you were right all along I guess I’m…

Against you
The world is against me It changes its gravity Everytime I start to float It just grounds me Everytime I try to fly It blows its winds Cold and dry stops my wings In their place I fall to the ground Every day. Taylor

Notice
I didn’t notice you drying your eyes Wiping your face and giving a smile I didn’t notice the way you started to dress As though it was always winter Never wore less Than long sleeves, full trousers Im sorry I didn’t notice I didn’t notice the scars The bags under your eyes I didn’t notice…
