rooftop harmonies

you tell me to feel, tell me be real
let the tears fall, let you see all
you want the truth, i don't know it
you want me to feel, i can't show it
you push me to run, you want me undone
but my house of cards can't withstand
these winds on this foundation of sand

why you wanna see me broken?
there's a reason these words are unspoken
you really want to open the flood gates?
you think you're ready for the big waves?
you gonna hold my hand as the water rises?
really wanna know what the reason why i'm high is?

well if you're going to take the floor out
from under me, you better understand me
and stand behind me, beside me, ready to
find me, to hide me when the demons come
to define me, to remind me that i am loved
don't leave me, please, redeem me!

I have so many bruises and so many scars
I've been beaten so hard. I've fallen so far
Regret and shame, they are my middle names
Living life like it's just a game
I can't win, stuck and bound by sin
My life's a roller coaster, my life's a circle track
Up and down, round and round, now I'm back
Where I started. Let me off this ride
Give me an end in sight so I can have some peace tonight

el sol baja, la luna sube
y se cierran mi ojos
en sueños te tuve
pero al almancer
veo que era mi mente
que me dijo que tu estabas presente

la mariposa me eligió
en mi alma la siento
este milagro se realizó
por nuestro delito
¿que harás cuando sepas
que un milagro nos tocó?

I trusted you.
I looked up to you.
You were a role model.
You failed.

I trusted me.
I followed my heart.
I got lost.
I failed.

Who can I trust?

you sucked me in!
here I was, ready to sleep
but your laughter drew me
and you knowledge deceived me
so I chuckled and I searched
and now my droopy eyelids protest
but you sucked me in
like a black hole.

unfortunately (big word!)
life won't stop because you're here
so I have to let you go;
I have to turn you off.
indeed, I will hibernate you.
until you, like the vacuum cleaner,
suck me in again.

goodnight internet,
netflix,
cable

goodnight entertainment!
