What I've Made

I think you'd be proud of what I've made.
It's not pretty but it holds it's own weight.
I've salvaged everything you left behind.
But I'm still looking for your face.
I'm trying out all of your old hobbies.
Reaching for something to hold on to.
I've got enough to keep me busy.
But I'm still looking for your face.

If you read the words I scribbled down
or understood a thing coming from my mumbling mouth,
you'd know that I wish you stuck around.
And that I was there
when you hit the ground.
I never knew you liked those scary movies
but then again I never asked.
I never learned your secret family recipe
but then again I never asked.
If you come back
I'll be there to catch you
when you fall
all the way from heaven.
They all forgot your name by Christmas.
I guess I was scared to say it too.
Like the absence of stockings and a tree
weren't enough proof that it was true.
If you come back
I'll be there to catch you
when you fall
all the way from heaven.

Written in Flesh

I can't cry for you, forever.
But I could try.
I won't let these tears
cloud my eyes.
Because there will be more.
You think I don't know,
but I can read
what's written in flesh.
You'll need time to heal
despite how well
you thought your wounds were dressed.
You don't need to blow the candle out,
let it burn,
the night is young.
You don't need to blow the candle out,
the storm will pass,
the wick will last.
You don't need to blow the candle out,
it's okay
to be afraid.
Please don't blow that candle out,
it's okay,
we're all afraid.

Woke Up

It was good to see you again
and meet your new little friend.
A messy apartment and a cat,
I would have never guessed that.
You tried to force me not to go
until I promised to come back home.
Then I woke up.
Just the sight of your face
made my heart start to race.
Memories came to life
and for a moment you were mine.
Then I woke up.
All I want to do is sleep.
So you and I can meet.
And talk about our favorite things.
And who I've grown to be.

Love Me

Not every song you write is worth the gold.
And not every word you speak gets chiseled into stone.
At least that's what I try to tell myself.
I could fill a graveyard with all of my regrets.
Maybe then, they'd haunt me a little bit less.
There's so many people that I never told the truth.
Why is it so hard to say, that I love you?
You don't have to say you love me.
You don't have to say you love me.
Just show up.
I'm not afraid of death but what gets left unsaid.
When your eyes roll back and you draw your last breath.
What if they didn't know,
before they had to go?
They meant,
the world to me.
Well you don't have to say you love me.
You don't have to say you love me.
Just show up
and prove it.
Before I fucking lose it.
