Robin

Mary, I wish I could change
I wish I could fly free
But you want me in the nest
You say I don’t have wings
You weren’t born to be a robin
I can feel the wings all inside
I feel like they could burst out
The blood dripping, you want to cut them off
And keep me as I am
I wish I could give you what you want
But I want to be a robin

I wear her skin again
03:06
|
|||
|
I wear her skin but no one knows
And I wish my skin would glow like the rest of the girls
I wish I was a shiny pearl
I wish I stood out to the crowd
I sleep through the night
Just hoping I could be like that
Longing for an end to this suffocation
Cause I lost sight of the horizon
Is there hope for me?
Is anyone proud of me?
Do I shine just as bright the way I am outside?
I cling to false hope
And I want another chance
I want another shell, I am hollow
Is there hope for me?
Is anyone proud of me?
Do I shine just as bright the way I am outside?
I cling to false hope
And I want another chance
I want another shell because I am hollow

I have lost my name
I have lost my friends
And at midnight I turn into
A monster again
I recall it many times
All the wrongs I’d never right
And at midnight I turn into
A monster again
Again
Oh no
Oh no
When I wake up, I know
That my glow is gone
And when I walk those halls
I’m a monster again
Again
Don’t let me see the moon again
Don’t let me see the moon again
Again

The great flood
05:20
|
|||
|
I felt the fear wash over me
The flood came in
I thought that I could finally drown
But the water didn’t let me
It just felt like I was floating
And the flood would stop
I thought I was safe now
But then it would come back
I just wish there was land
For me to feel safe
And I wish there was a way out
From the endless feeling of floating
Noah won’t let me on his ark
Noah won’t let me on his ark
Noah can’t save me
God will hurt me
God is unforgiving
Noah won’t let me on his ark
Noah won’t let me on his ark
Noah can’t save me
God will hurt me
God is unforgiving
I just wish there was land
For me to feel safe
And I wish there was a way out

Vampyr in the dark
06:21
|
|||
|
I want to be a vampire
I will hide in the dark
And never look at the light again
For tonight, I am cold
And I won’t look in the mirror
I will hide with the bats
And I won’t see another human
For eternity, for eternity
What am I in your minds
A monster outside (unholy)
What am I in your minds
A monster outside (unholy)
And when I walk the halls
I look to the ground
And I hope I get where I am going
When I see you all
I won’t show my fangs
(And I walk amongst the undead)
It’s a hellish kind of living
(And I walk amongst the undead)
It’s an average kind of living
What am I in your minds
A monster outside (unholy)
What am I in your minds
A monster outside (unholy)
And now we wait (unholy)

Mother, will you go to Heaven?
Will I go to Hell?
I swear I’ve been a good child
Everyday I am trying
I wish I wanted to accept
What I was born to be
But God did not create me
As beautifully
Mother, I know God is watching
But he punishes me
And I don’t think
I have ever deserved
Your undying love
For I have been
A child of sin
And I will live in my shame
Forever and ever

I cling to you
05:11
|
|||
|
I cling to you so tight
And you may blow me away
As I fall to the ground and die
And I want you to embrace me
And keep me warmer
But I don't feel so safe
Baring my soul to you
Would I be met with a harsh reaction?
Would you spare me?
I will hide my skin from the sun
So I will not burn
And I'll be what you want
Just keep me warm for the winter
I will hide my skin from the sun
So I will not burn
And I'll be what you want
Just keep me warm for the winter
And if I may pass
Would you shed a tear?
Would you call me by the right name?
Would you be angry?
Would you still love me the same? (I will hide my skin from the sun)
(So I will not burn)
Can I still cling to you? (And I’ll be what you want)
Can I still trust you (Just keep me warm for the winter)
With my secrets? (I will hide my skin from the sun)
(So I will not burn)
(And I’ll be what you want)
(Just keep me warm for the winter)

Tired of my self
05:34
|
|||
|
I will face the pain again
I will wake up again
But the morning never brought comfort
And I’m just too drowsy to care
I’m so tired of myself
Cause I know nothing’s changed
And it won’t
My lips are chapped
My back is oddly shaped
My arms are large
I’m covered in fur
And I don’t want to spend
Another day in this body
I’m so tired of myself
Nothing will ever change
And I wish that I felt like an object
I wish I felt like an object
I wish I felt like an object
I wish I felt like an object
I wish I was a pretty object
I wish I was a pretty object
My lips are chapped
My back is oddly shaped
My arms are large
I’m covered in fur
And I don’t want to spend (I wish I was)
Another day in this body (A pretty object)
I’m so tired of myself (I wish I was)
Nothing will ever change (A pretty object)

A dead deer
06:41
|
|||
|
You will find me on the street
I am decaying meat
Bleeding out on the concrete
The cars pass my body
And I can’t feel his touch
I’ve been shot down
And I cannot get up
And all the other deer
They will die too
They have and they will
And everyone wants me down
And they spit on my carcass
The animals, they won’t feed from me
They won’t remember me
Oh, I am a gentle soul broken down
The pieces shatter and scatter on the street
Please don’t leave me to die alone
Please take my body
Please don’t let me die
I hope my body is worth anything to you
Please don’t leave me to die alone
Please take my body
Please don’t let me die
I hope my body is worth anything to you
