follow me - haven

Granted, I took you for A heartless monster I never wanted to know Grandfather clock, in the middle of the hall Taunting me with the tick tock of love gone wrong If everything is so time bound Tell me why am I wasting my time If open wounds are laugh filled crates Why do only they get treated right Follow me through the back water bay Screaming over every banshee wave I have never been known to endlessly wait Race me I dare you till the water turns gray Telepathic, you surely must have been Afraid to admit you couldn't live in this mess Escaping, like a deer in the wind Mighty proud of outrunning the hornets nest If everything was so time bound Tell me why was I wasting my time If open wounds are laugh filled crates Why do only they get treated right Follow me through the back water bay Screaming over every banshee wave I have never been known to endlessly wait Race me I dare you till the water turns gray Follow me to the world down under As I make my way to an antsy ha...

idle burning heart - haven

There was a time when I had nothing but tears in my eyes And spent several millennia constantly putting out fires And maybe I accidentally blew out the candle I lit for you  But I was scared that it might burn everything down too I've been seeing everything turn gray And all the color drains from my face As I watch your spirit take form  And freeze this idle burning heart And every time my words were too big to leave my mouth And curse this once upon sacred godly town It was an excuse for the attachment I had for you I know you can't trust this long I've been seeing everything turn gray And all the color drains from my face As I watch your spirit take form  And freeze this idle burning heart How did I lose the emotional capacity  To bear the weight of the promises I made to you Where did it go that evergreen glow  That made me long for you It might have been my fault, for waiting too long To confess my never ending flaws Maybe that's where everything...

believe me - haven

All the scars you gave me Shine brighter than before I've been a walking confession lately Spilling my heart out to anyone who wants to hear Call it gossip or buried burdens out in the open I'm a secret everyone knows but is scared of admittance Call me a traitor or bravely spoken I still fear the locked door unlocked I can hear every word you say Beating like a drum on doomsday As they turned red with violence They count me out again and again I understand why you said no one would believe me I wouldn't believe me too All I had to do was daydream To turn reality into black and white But they turned quickly into nightmares With a speed so sinister like Call it being delusional by craving a story line like motion pictures Name one that would have inspired my experienced horrors Call me unstable because of my history But isn't my history you?  I can hear every word you say Beating like a drum on doomsday As they turned red with violence They count ...

Based On: Westworld I'm scared of what might happen if I choose to live a life worth my while Different from the version of mine you created to your liking Do you cringe at the thought of the decisions I might make?  Questioning my reality and the violent delights you crave This isn't the life I want to share with you One where only one can rule While the other cowers behind the hopes and dreams Created for them to follow as way of security I never realised the depth to which the fear of you sunk in The way it evolved over time, disguising itself as something of warmth Something of passion, something of forever Something I knew would take years to erode This isn't the life I choose to share with you What is mine shall only remain mine My mind, my body and my dignity Are not meant for you and I to be intertwined A life earned isn't a life worth losing And a life borrowed isn't a life worth living That is the life I choose to share with you A boundary of b...

pillar - haven

I never saw all the faces you made But now I see all the roles you played I've never known myself to be a fool How did I fall prey to the likes of you?  You stepped aside to allow me a taste of defeat I wish I had known it came from a place of deceit What a terrible time to spread my wings and fly When I was born at the feet of your pillar of lies I admired the road you chose to take Full of hope it would lead to a blitheful place Let alone leaving all I had to you I'm sure I was one of your delible few You stepped aside to allow me a taste of defeat I wish I had known it came from a place of deceit What a terrible time to spread my wings and fly When I was born at the feet of your pillar of lies If you go looking for trouble There's a good chance you might find it People like you will never be happy with the way life is Full of dishonesty and regrettable pride People like you make life want to be a lie Some kind of torturous punishment  For a sin th...
