I'm starting to become more like a canvas
Bare
And nothing to show for myself.
Everyone knows where they're headed:
The paths of unknown, I've tread then
Halfway, slowpaced,
Have one foot in the grave
I'm lying to the mirror.
I was an exotic flower;
Sprung, unforseen.
Iris can't be unhappy when you're sweet like tangerines.
I begged, I stole, I cried, I lie
I broke some primises, I robbed them too
Please don't tell father
Even though you know he knows all.
I am the happiest person, I must admit;
But I'm losing myself, wiping memories off of the shelf
And i cannot binge whilst crying.
Oh, Did I mention i stopped trying?
Truth is: seeing stars turn to black holes sooth me
Sue me!
Can I be a mystery
That no ones trying to solve?
Only a dream that no one aims for?
Only believers believe in their dreams
And I am no dreamer.
These diadems are on tight, suffocating my brain, keeping me in my fantasy, making me insane.
Cigarettes and bad boys excite me.
Loving the life that I'm living.
It's not about being clean-
It's about me breathing.
Ooh, they can use me as their stepping stone
Get themselves farther
I'll throw myself down
If we can still be lovers.
I'm a hopeless, helpless, lovesick romantic
"You're the bestest!"
No, I'm just kind and helpless
I've learned from the forgotten
And surely from the breathless.
I am indeed the Queen of Hopeless Dreams
All taken away from me.
I wear a mask to hide my face
Because I feel so out of place, without it.
I have no "home", I have no shoulder to lean on.
I breathe. I dream. I live. And nothing.
One day, God will come and make me something.
More than I am, and more than I say.
Finally, I'm scared of heights.
Should I be scared because I have to get over myself?
My heart is empty, but still there.
Iris can't be unhappy
When you're sweet like tangerines.
