i wanted to be a garden i was trying so hard to bloom roses and lilies and lilacs pressed into bookshelves lining my room and here’s a secret i’ve never told i’m not so scared of getting old i’m a little scared of losing the way of eighteen being my last days there’s a lot of things i won’t let go i’m still shaking on long car rides home there’s a lot of noise inside my head i still spend most nights lying wide awake in my bed i know i caused the storm but i’m still scared of the rain i’m always outrunning the thunder always trying to change my name i’m causing the slamming doors and bruised knees born from hardwood floors i’ve been prone to split lip lies always known for helpless cries there’s a lot of things that you don’t know i’ve got secrets hid away, between the cracks in my bones there’s a lot of life inside the dark i’ve spent most of my life trying to turn the stars into sparks

georgia 03:05
i loved you from georgia in the south beneath the stars and i was dreaming of train tracks, darling, pulling me into your arms all my friends keep saying they’ve got no one to talk to my mind keeps drifting always to my sleepless nights with you if there’s gonna be a downpour if there’s gonna be a flood if the world’s swelling up tomorrow i’ll make a confession i think you might be the one i said i think you might be the one i loved you through the winter through the wind and through the snow you were stealing all of my favorite sweaters you spent three months in my clothes all my friends keep asking what you would do if you knew every time that you look my way i’ve been staring straight at you if there’s gonna be a downpour if there’s gonna be a flood if the world’s swelling up tomorrow i’ll make a confession i think you might be the one if there’s gonna be a downpour if there’s gonna be a flood if the world’s swelling up tomorrow i’ll make a confession i think you might be the one i said i think you might be the one i said i think you might be the one

you were always kind of mine when we were kids just wasting time and i liked looking in your eyes i'd say “lie to me” every night and all the heads would turn to see us walking your bright blue eyes and my sweet talking was it only me who knew you were drifting using pills and my lips like a sickness you’re too far gone can’t feel me anymore you’re too far gone can only reach the floor you’re too far gone you’re too far gone we were always out of time spent our days saying goodbye i was scared of lonely nights you said “don’t waste your breath” cause you’d be fine when things were good you were brand new, golden white toothed smiles and fear you could hold in heir to the throne with a nasty secret bright orange bottles where i only could see them you’re too far gone can’t feel me anymore you’re too far gone can only reach the floor you’re too far gone you’re too far gone

you are 04:08
you wanted a story, so i gave you mine with coffee smudged writing and a paperback spine and you are my favorite friend if i smash the stars, you'll repaint them again and when i'm afraid, you tell me i'm brave and even if you're lying you are the moon and all the stars you are the beating drum of my heart we're like the ocean, the sand and the sea when i'm pushing and pulling, you wait patiently your voice is like home to me you make me who i'm supposed to be and every day, each word that you say please know that i'm listening you are the moon and all the stars you are the beating drum of my heart you are the pulse inside my veins you are the quiet keeping me sane i don't remember what days were like before i found home by your side, but i don't need those memories anymore you say words that i can't speak and even when you're miles away from me you're the wind in my hair you're everywhere and i'll always remind you you are the moon and all the stars you are the beating drum of my heart you are the pulse inside my veins you are the quiet keeping me sane
