I'm the lonely artist sitting in the corner of the classroom
Who no one ever sees
I'm always right by myself with my ink and paper
Drawing all my dreams
•
•
•
To observe the people and sometimes feel my heart waver
When he looks at me
It's just a thought a figment of my imagination
But it gives me glee
•
•
•
I don't relate to all they say on how love works its magic
I'm always repulsed by
I can't picture it for myself; the late nights to early mornings
A shoulder to cry
•
•
•
I've seen photos and I've read books the knight in shining armor
The damsel in distress
He gets the girl and they marry to live their happily ever after
Just a bunch of nonsense
•
•
•
It's always the same story, the ending never changes
I want a judge-free zone
Surrounded with all the people from Jo Berry's party
So I'm not alone
•
•
•
She's a golden ray of sunshine shimmering on the lake with an e
Heard my silent whispers
Her eyes see wonders in the darkest of valleys
The stage is hers
•
•
•
Worlds of marvel escape her mouth makes everything beat with life
Absolutely fascinating
Seeing the universe through her eyes hopeless romantic
Spends her time fantasising
•
•
•
She found the courage to be herself without apologies
So I guess it's my turn
I stand up to those who broke me in every which way possible
Making my everything burn
•
•
•
I stepped out of the place that I never belonged in
I'm like fire, wild
Running upto that hill for one last glance back at life
I'm no longer that child
•
•
•
I am now free to love; me, him, and whoever I want
This decision is the wisest
I feel like I can breathe for the first time with no hand on my neck
I'll live to be that artist
