Starstruck

Not as simple as it looks

By Irvin Published about a year ago 1 min read

Lock me in a prison of your heart I'm not escaping
Darkness creeping in I'm scared to death I'm now escaping
Running from your love I know it's chasing me for placement
Caving in them spaces of them words you never saying
I cannot live like this even though you Hella amazing
You seeking validation from a guy friend thats on probatie

He is never there for long left a vacant for a replacement
Now you feeling lonely with them scars heart is aching

Tell me all your secrets that are heavy from within
Tell me all your troubles that never wanna end
You loyal to yourself cause that's a good revenge
I see it through your eyes that your tired of the pain
Tired of the stains that are leaking from your heart
You closing it for good cause it's almost really done
You living In a shadow that's hiding from the sun
Got burned from the love that had you smoked like a blunt
The past follows you like a fucken loaded gun
It kills you from the soul while you try your best to run
Running till you lost in a place you overcome
Rewriting history for a lesson you never learned
Feeling like a loss again healing never done

Healing never done with open wounds you try to hide
It's see through like a window see a widow while she cries
You tell yourself you strong but you never wanna try to fall in love again
It's messing with you how you keep falling for your friends
In denial with yourself that you give more than you get
You've said more than you felt
You wanna reach the end
But never really dealt
With the pain and trauma that breathing through your chest
Say it how it is cause it's really how you felt ×2
The pressure in your head like you tightening the belt
Makes you wanna scream to the world so they acknowledge that you not really okay
