Romance to Razorblades

[For every single]

 

Person all alone, every

Gap in the system, all the

People with a thought thinking

Nobody will miss them, every

 

Lie ever told behind a

Smile on the surface, and

Every single person feeling

Worthless, drowning in the

 

Cold of the first winter,

Praying for spring to

Return, playing in the ashes,

Watching everything burn,

 

A little cut here, and a

Little cut there, praying

Nobody will see, and knowing

Nobody will care, so just

 

Hold your breath, for

Love and broken mirrors, and

Just hear me out, as I try to

Take away the fear, because

 

Nobody's forever, life

Continues on still, but I ain't

Trying to live forever, but

Leave a message that will:

 

Remember, that while

Memories will be forever

You will always find the sun

After all the gloomy weather 

 

And I promise, that

Everything will all get better,

Cuz even in in the storm,

It can never rain forever,

 

-JP
