This is obviously where I'll post any lyrics I write. I'm not posting every song I write bc a lot of them are very personal (or just plain bad ;-;).
Idk how often I'll update this because it just depends on when I write and if I want to put it out on the Internet. Probably once (1) a month. Twice (2) if I'm lucky bc I got school and after school clubs and all that jazz o_o
Newest songs will go on the top, the songs will be highlighted in different colors to make them easier to spot/tell the difference between.
I'll add little meanings about each song/what song they're inspired by under the respective song and it won't be highlighted.
I'm open to any criticism as long as it's constructive. Be nice.

Lyrics:
Don’t Come Back:
I’m finally leaving my head
And it feels like sh1t
I want to, want to go back
But I know that I can’t
We were only stupid kids
How did we turn into this
Why did we turn into this
How did we, why did we
There’s a darkness in every light
And there’s no light in the dark
My mind it comforts me
Just let me go back please
Let me, let me go back
When did the clock continue turning
Turning ever so quickly
Quickly consuming me
Me and my everything
You were my everything
You should have been my everything
All my memories, fading and burning
Burning with regrets
Regrets that I thought I never had
I hope they never come back
No don’t, don’t, don’t come back
Everything feels cold now
Because you took my heat, left me to bleed
I want it back, please can you give it back
“No, no” you say “It’s mine for the keeping”
Keeping me in place, and my mind is circling
Circling with the thoughts of you
We were only stupid kids
How did we end up like this
Why did we end up like this
How did we, why did we
You’re still keeping me trapped
Trapped inside my own head
That I thought it was my friend
Thought it could help me
In the end it’s always you
You who keeps on consuming me
Consuming me and all my misery
Misery that you caused
Please take it all away
Take it all, take it all, take it all away
When did the clock continue turning
Turning ever so quickly
Quickly consuming me
Me and my everything
You were my everything
You should have been my everything
All my memories, fading and burning
Burning with regrets
Regrets that I thought I never had
I hope they never come back
No don’t, don’t, don’t come back
I hope they all burn with you
I hope they’re all in h3ll with you
Don’t ever come back
I’m tired of saying please
You were my everything
You should have been my everything
But look at where we are
Now
Meaning: it’s about finally ‘waking up’ from your own thoughts and actually cutting ties with people you don’t need in your life (not inspired by anything)
Every/Anything:
It feels like I’m drowning in my own emotions
A swimming pool full of empty sponges
Soaking up everything you give
But it’s never enough
Don’t you know what I’ve done to keep us afloat
What I’ve stopped myself from doing
Because I tell myself that I love you
I wonder if you feel the same too
I’m giving everything I have
Everything I want
Oh it’s going all to you
I would give up my soul
And my life to be with you
But you’re not returning it
Not paying it back
I’m risking my future self
Wanting to throw them in the trash for us
It feels like I’m cracking under my own pressure
Of giving everything and anything to you
I stay up way too late
Wondering where we went wrong
Was it all my fault? Is it in my head?
I want to know but I can’t stand the truth
Can’t stand the thought of loving you
But I don’t want to leave you
I’ve tried and tried to keep us afloat
But it’s never ever worked
All because I tried to love you
Tell me do you still love me too?
I’m giving everything I have
Everything I want
Oh it went all to you
I would’ve given up my soul
And my life to be with you
But you didn’t return it
Didn’t pay it back
I’m risked my future self
Wanted to throw them in the trash
It still feels like I’m cracking under my own pressure
Of giving everything and anything to you
Every letter and line I’ve wrote
Was it all for nothing?
Giving up all my strength for love
I was stupid
I gave you everything and anything that I had
Threw myself into the deepest end
Gave it all and you just took it for yourself
You couldn’t see that I truly loved you
Everything and anything that I ever had
Oh you’re coming back to haunt me
Everything and anything that I ever loved
Oh you’re gonna crush me
Meaning: it’s about feeling like you’re in a one sided relationship (not inspired by anything)
Song name: Summer Child
I know we dreamed of doing big things
I’m sorry love but I let you down
We never got our crown
You were a clever girl, you just didn’t know it
You were a light in the world
But they didn’t know it
You never showed how sad you were
We didn't know how bad things were
I know it seems so hard
But you can push through, for me
But more importantly
For you
Oh sweet summer child
Put it all behind you
You don’t deserve them
Oh sweet summer child
Forget about it all
You didn’t deserve that
We’ve always dreamed of staying up till the morning
We do, but not for the reasons we want
We should take it as a warning
That our seasons are changing
Your big round eyes will get tired eventually
But you’ll keep them open long enough
Trying to feel complete
I know fear won’t let you go
But you have to push through
For me, but more importantly
For you
Oh sweet summer child
Put it all behind you
You don’t deserve them
Oh sweet summer child
Forget about it all
You didn’t deserve that
You’re an unwritten melody
An unfinished song
You are strong in so many ways
So keep your friends close
And learn to let the bad things go
They’ve hurt you in more ways than you can count
Yet you still hold on
You’re still singing your song
You’re still holding on
To all those good memories
From before you changed
No it’s not all lost in vain
There is still time, go live your life
Be wild and unafraid
My sweet summer child, light up your night
My sweet summer child, don’t forget about your life
It’s all ahead of you, nothing you can’t break through
Oh you’ll come out alive
Meaning: it's a love letter of sorts to me from middle school/early highschool. I used to be a very bright and bubbly and extroverted person so I'm kind of telling my younger self you don't have to go back to being who you were. (Inspired by Dearest Sunshine and Mend My Soul In Lavender, both by Alisha Liston)
Song name: Live My Life (without further ado)
Wake up, the world feels like a dream
It’s spinning but also staying so still
Spinning so fast I’m about to get sick of it
Tonight feels like the beginning of something new
Messing shlt up just for the fun of it
I’m so ready to be done with this life
So without further ado
Let me do some stupid shlt and fxck things up
Let me live me life however I want
Oh~ forget about the academic record
Lets go blow something up or cause a ruckus
I just want to live my life how I want it
Oh, oh~ oh~ let me live my life how I want it
It feels like I’m about to combust
All these adults saying shlt they don’t even mean
Weighing me down thinking about my little possibilities
Tonight feels like I need to do something new
Need a new life, oh I’m full of it
I’m so ready to fxck up my life~
So without further ado
Let me do some stupid shlt and fxck things up
Let me live me life however I want
Oh~ forget about the academic record
Lets go blow something up or cause a ruckus
I just want to live my life how I want it
Oh, oh~ oh~ let me live my life how I want it
Got no need for maps or direction
I’m going solo, on my own mission
Every twist and person, just a new addition
To my fxcked up life~
Let me do some stupid shlt and fxck things up
Let me live me life however I want
Oh~ forget about the academic record
Lets go blow something up or cause a ruckus
I just want to live my life how I want it
Oh, oh~ oh~ let me live my life how I want it
This is for the girls who want to run away
For all the boys who want to seize that day~
Let’s go stupid shlt and cause a ruckus
Not think about tomorrow, no, no consequences~
Let’s go live our lives how we want it
It’s about how a simple life isn’t for everyone, and sometimes people want more at any cost. Also I couldn’t decide between ‘Live My Life’ and ‘Without Further Ado’ as the song title so I merged them. (inspired by Tonight I Might and My Way by KATSEYE)
Song name: Twin Flames
In the beginning there was hope
Just like the story books from long ago
Two hearts beating in sync just like candle flames
Our future was painted in gold
We were ready to be unstoppable, to hold onto each other for forever
But i never thought that you would leave
I thought we were twin flames
Burning up together
Surviving the crusades and even the rapture
Oh we were gonna be in this whole thing together
But you left me all alone, on my own
I thought we were twin flames
Burning brighter than the stars
Yearning for a life that’s not ours
But you went on without me
And I’m still haunted by your flame
In the silence of my world I can still hear your name
Calling out to you, seeing if you’ve changed
Falling down when you say you've forgotten me
I was so caught up in these walls
I guess it’s my fault you never called
I locked my heart into a vault
But why am I still blaming myself
Why am I still playing these games by myself
I thought we were twin flames
Burning up together
Surviving the crusades and even the rapture
Oh we were gonna be in this whole thing together
But you left me all alone, on my own
I thought we were twin flames
Burning brighter than the stars
Yearning for a life that’s not ours
But you went on without me
And I’m still haunted by your flame
An eternal light can still go out
An eternal light can not be found
Now i’m writing songs about you
Cause I can’t face my own guilt
Oh twin flames, what a disgrace
It’s about a friendship that no longer exists but one person wants to rekindle it. Based on my own feelings/experience (inspired by Weird Hills by Janani K. Jha)
Song name: Hallucinations
I see you
But you're not there
You're a part of me
But only my despair
Look me in the eyes, tell me are you alive
Ooo~ what are you?
Ooo~ who are you?
In my shadows you dance
Every step I take, it’s a little bit more of a chance
Trying to find you~ I’m trying to catch you~
Don’t you run away from me
But don’t you make me scream
Won’t you let me see~
Hallucinations, haunting my dreams
Hallucinations, real or fantasy?
Ooo~ I don’t even know~ no, no, no
Hallucinations, a touch in the night
Hallucinations, controlling my life
Ooo~ can’t you just leave me alone~ no, no, no
In the mirror, in the dark, no light in sight
You’re all bark but no bite
So why am I so afraid?
Weighed down by my own self
Weighed down by you eyeing me
But you're there, terrifying me
Caught in a maze of shadows, no end in sight
Chasing my own mind, till it’s my time
A bittersweet illusion of the past
A bittersweet illusion a-at last
Ooo~ who are you?
Ooo~ what are you?
Hallucinations, haunting my dreams
Hallucinations, real or fantasy?
Ooo~ I don’t even know~ no, no, no
Hallucinations, a touch in the night
Hallucinations, controlling my life
Ooo~ can’t you just leave me alone~ no, no, no
I see you, but you're not there
I see you, but why are you here
Merely a specter of my own despair
Look me in my eyes, tell me if I’m alive
Ooo~ what am I?
Ooo~ who am I?
You’re a silent echo of my screams
A silent echo i see in my dreams
Ooo~ where do we go now, what will you do now?
It’s about the memory or feeling of someone/something ‘haunting’ you. The only way to describe it is: it’s like watching a bad movie over and over and you hate it but you know every word of dialogue in it and watch it at least once a month and it never leaves your mind. (kind of inspired by The Judgement (I Think Too Much) by Janani K. Jha)
Song name: Once Bitten
(ooo~) you were, the light in my dark
Key to my heart, now all I see
Is the devil trying to tempt me
Trying to get you off of me
(ooo~) I can’t find peace
Can’t break the hold you’ve got me, it’s suffocating me
Love’s become a chase
And you're not staying in your own lane
Once bitten, by your teeth
Twice bitten, made me weak
Once bitten I~ couldn’t see, hear, or breathe~
Once bitten, got me shy
Twice bitten, crossed a line
Three times, get out of my life
Every word you said
Like shooting stars in the dark, fading faster than scars
Like the ones you left on my heart
Caught up in deceit
You swept me off my feet
Then threw me in the deep
(ooo~) I got out
But how much of me is left
Where did I go, what did you do to me
I’ve found strength but how can I balance
I sleep better without you, but i hate that i miss you
I shouldn’t miss you, why do you do this to me
Once bitten by your teeth
Twice bitten made me weak
Once bitten I~ couldn’t see, hear, or breathe~
Once bitten, got me shy
Twice bitten, crossed a line
Three times, get out of my life!
Once bitten made me scream
You didn’t listen to me~
Twice bitten, was it a dream~
Woke up, never complete
Third time, i’m seeing clear
Last time you’re in my air
Once bitten, no shame on me
Twice, all shame on you
Third time, i’m finally saying goodbye~
It’s about someone overstepping your boundaries and how it can change you as a person, as a partner, and how that experience can affect your future relationships. It can affect romantic, platonic, or any kind of relationship and it hurts like a bltch. (not inspired by anything)
