❝ used to pray to God

for a happily ever after

used to wishing on every shooting star

to live a life, filled with laughter

every time it was 11:11

i remember wishing

for no pain

for life to be like heaven

but now i'm older,

more mature

i've seen far worse

than what i thought i had in store

'cause nightmares are only dreams

that show you the truth

there ain't no such thing as fair

and if there is, i'm certainly unaware

i sometimes wonder

if i've done something wrong

my life feels like

a stupid love song

so maybe i'm just hopeless

maybe i'm a failure

maybe there's no one

left for me

maybe i'm not worth it

probably don't deserve it

all i want

is for someone to listen

make it seem like

i'm not alone

can you hear me,

or am i talking to myself? 

assure me

that i ain't delusional

can you hear me,

and my calls for help? 

take me in your arms

never let me go

can you hear me,

or am i all alone?

used to sing a song

and laugh with my friends

all the fun

it seemed to never end

i was happy

but the world ruined it all

brought my downfall,

made me small

since now i'm older,

more mature

i've witnessed much more

than i ever should've explored

i've learned that

true love don't exist

and finding it

is honestly just bullshit

i sometimes wonder

if i've done something wrong

my life feels like

a stupid love song

so maybe i'm just hopeless

maybe i'm a failure

maybe there's no one

left for me

maybe i'm not worth it

probably don't deserve it

all i want

is for someone to listen

comfort me

make me feel safe, and free

can you hear me,

and my cries for justice? 

take me far away from here

so i don't have to shed a single tear

can you hear me,

or are you just like cold, bitter tea? 

lead me to our paradise

where nothing's wrong, everything's right

can you hear me,

or is the wind howling too loud?

and I know i'm an idiot

for ever believing in that crap

but a small part of me

still wants to feel a part of that

so call me crazy

say i'm out of my mind

i honestly don't give a damn

'cause it's too late for me to ever be fine

fuck me

and my emotions

but i still want

you to be mine

oh, can you hear my voice tonight,

crying your name with joy and spite?

is it just me,

am i all just a lie?

or are we both

just an illusion

in my petty, naive

mind? ❞
