tighten up

the weight of love

im on my knees, im losing sleep.

you’re next to me, but i can’t breathe.

my head’s a mess, my heart’s a thief.

i love you less when i love too deep.

you talk in dreams, i stare at walls.

you’re giving peace, i give withdrawals.

your halo bends, my silence crawls.

i break your trust then beg your calls.

tighten up, my tongue still lies.

i kiss you slow, then close my eyes.

i keep the truth just out of sight.

im so wrong, no im not right.

the struggle within

you should go, i can’t be kind.

i lose control, i lose my mind.

i want your love, but not this time.

im not ready, not tonight.

you pour your heart, i spill my fear.

you wipe my face, i disappear.

i chase the high, ignore the clear.

the love i want, i can’t keep near.

i pull away, i twist the knife.

i call it space, you call it life.

i swear i’ll change, but not tonight.

im still the same, just more polite.

tighten up, i fake the calm.

you trace my skin, i drop the bomb.

you want forever, i want gone.

but i’m not right, no, i’m all wrong.

the haunting echoes

you should go, i can’t be kind.

i lose control, i lose my mind.

i want your love, but not this time.

im afraid, so not tonight.

i dream of you, i wake in sweat.

your ghost still hums inside my chest.

if loving you means losing rest,

ill lose you now, and call it best.

tighten up, my heart won’t stay.

i'm not built to make you pay.

you deserve the light of day.

im still gray.

im over it
