Synesthesia

Don't fret if you forget the exact look of her smile. A laughter so angelic it could brighten the stars. Or exactly how her face looked when sleeping, curled up, shaped like a crescent moon.

Secrets Sell But That's Putting It Simple

This girl treats me like a toy to a child 
Worshipped like gold then I'm just ignored for a while 
Most guys create trust issues like crushed tissues 
Got these girls bawling all the time so scared of being used

Smile, Life's Beautiful

Learn life's like a lullaby 
Lost loves look up, it's lovely
Lighting up the dark night sky 
Love you like no other 
Locked box with lots of photos 
Lightly faded on the frame 
Little stains on the cracked glass 
Looks picture perfect to me

Castles and Djinns

Find a way to go, know that you'll be fine with it 
If you choose a road, and you know that you're not fine with it 
There's a better way, you'll see better days 
Life will be great when you're in your castle 

I gotta roam alone but I know you'll find your way
If you're feeling low, know you're still glowing to me 
There's a better way, you'll see better days 
Life will be great when you're in your castle now

Cigarettes And Cyanide

These walls that lie before me are all I have left of my past 
The scars bring back the memories I wish I didn't have 
Enclose me in your boiling rain in which I can't escape 
Cut myself with my lies and all of my mistakes 
This place feels like Eden to the world outside 
No love, no pain or sorrow, just a place where I can hide 
I regret ignoring all of your advice 
Now I wish I listened because it could've saved my life 
But if I could turn back time and do it all again 
I'd do everything the same, I love the mess I'm in
