Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


Stay, you promised you would stay,
I said you will always need me, every day.
Depression is a haunting infection, I tried to help you,
But you were beyond hurt, wouldn't reveal the truth.
A broken heart and a clouded mind,
I left voicemails on a disconnected line.
You never answer, I'll never understand why,
I refuse to give up because I just wanna be your guy...
But you're moving on, what can I say?
I had a feeling I would see this day.
Where you delete my number, you erase my name,
'Cause when I popped up it only issued pain.
After all these years, I only wanted you to be with me,
I've never been anything less than yours truly.
And as I grant you immortality with the pen, you kill me with the sword,
It's safe to say, we're both moving forward...
Our late night texts, they got you through,
Whenever you needed me, I was there for you.
So let's cut our ties and rid our losses,
Your name flows in my head like a running faucet.
If somehow I could turn you off, I don't think I would,
And even if I wanted too, I don't think I could.
In your veins I was the poison,
But I overdosed on you, so I guess we're even.
You're moving on, what can I say?
I had a feeling I would see this day.
Where you delete my number, you erase my name,
'Cause when I popped up it only issued pain.
After all these years, I only wanted you to be with me,
I've never been anything less than yours truly.
And as I grant you immortality with the pen, you kill me with the sword,
It's safe to say, we're both moving forward...
I pretend that we're okay,
Living inside my head where I see you every day.
I go outside but the sun doesn't shine,
I lied the last time I said I was fine.
I can't look away, but I gotta close my eyes,
Forget about you, never, but I'll try with this disguise.
You'll carry on with your day 'cause in life it's a must,
But I'll never forget 2014, the 25th of August...
You're moving on, what can I say?
I had a feeling I would see this day.
Where you delete my number, you erase my name,
'Cause when I popped up it only issued pain.
After all these years, I only wanted you to be with me,
I've never been anything less than yours truly.
And as I grant you immortality with the pen, you kill me with the sword,
It's safe to say, we're both moving forward...
