_{❛  just grab a hold of my hand . ❜  
❛  somewhere deep in the dark a howling beast hears us talk . ❜
❛  i dare you to close your eyes . ❜
❛  you love love love when you know i can’t love you .  ❜  
❛  after every sunny day , comes a stormy night . ❜  
❛  you’re my king & i’m your lionheart . ❜  
❛  breathe in , breathe out . let the human in .  ❜  
❛  my head is an animal . ❜  
❛  all the trouble i have caused with my two hands . ❜
❛ & we’re far , far home but we’re so happy .  ❜  
❛  we used to play outside when you were young and full of life and full of love .  ❜  
❛  i watched you disappear .  ❜  
❛   it’s best we both forget before we dwell on it . ❜  
❛  as i looked around i began to notice we are nothing like the rest .  ❜  
❛  there’s an old voice in my head that’s holding me back .  ❜  
❛  are you really going to love me when i’m gone ? ❜  
❛  i’m shaking like a leaf . ❜  
❛  can you chase this fire away ? ❜  
❛  but i tried , oh , i tried . ❜  
❛  just let me go & we’ll meet again soon . ❜  
❛  we won’t run . ❜  
❛  it’s killing me to see you this way . ❜  
❛  i’m a crook for not caring for it . ❜   
❛  the stairs creak as you sleep , it’s keeping me / you awake . it’s the house telling me / you to close your eyes . ❜  
❛  don’t listen to a word i say . ❜  
❛  as the world comes to an end i’ll be here to hold your hand .  ❜  
❛  please hang around . ❜  
❛  i can see through you . ❜  
❛  it’s perfectly strange . ❜  
❛  hungry for the kill , but this hunger , it isn’t you . ❜  
❛  we are the same .  ❜  
❛  some days i don’t know if i am wrong or right . ❜  
❛  you can follow me .  ❜  
❛  some days I can’t even dress myself . ❜  
❛  why are you shaking your head ? ❜  
❛  i’m all out of breath . ❜
❛  your mind is playing tricks on you , my dear . ❜      
❛  i am a killer . ❜  
❛  i take off my face because it reminds me how it all went wrong . ❜  
❛  darker days are raining over me . ❜  
❛  my blood runs red but my body feels so cold . ❜   
❛  i am the storm . ❜  
❛  please look away , don’t look at me . ❜  
❛  i heard them calling in the distance . ❜  
❛  i am sorry for the trouble , i suppose . ❜  
❛  i need nothing . ❜  
❛  i know that it’s a waste of time , chasing in the dark . ❜  
❛  you’re cold against the skin . ❜  
❛  & i run , i run , i run . ❜  
❛  the way you held me so tight … all through the night … ❜  
❛  you & i will not be shaken ! ❜  
❛  stop , i will take control . ❜  
❛  you scream , you scratch , you bite . ❜  
❛  the books that i keep by my bed are full of your stories . ❜  
❛  i’ll meet your eyes for the very first time , for the very last . ❜  
❛  let go , lay to rest . ❜  
❛  maybe i’m a bad , bad , bad , bad person . well , baby , i know . ❜  
❛  these fingertips will never run through your skin . ❜  
❛  i will lead you through this wonderland . ❜
❛  water up to my knees , but sharks are swimming in the sea . ❜
❛  ignore all those big warning signs . ❜
❛  you have scars & some scratches . it makes me wonder about your past . ❜
❛  the light is blinding my eyes . ❜
❛  i push you away , although I wish you could stay . ❜
❛  i’m never ready . ❜
❛  time won’t let me show what i want to show . ❜
❛  all eyes on me . ❜
❛  i spend my night dancing with my own shadow . ❜
❛  i packed my things & ran . ❜}
