Scopophobia

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Roses grow
In places we used to go
Flowers sit in place
Of the thought of your face

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Overgrown
And under shown
I need to find my home
In a place I know

When I saw the cracks show
My brain switched from "stay" to "let's go"
I can't sit here no more
Someone get me out of this hole
I put myself in
I said I didn't, I was lying
But I switched up
And now the memories are dying
I'm hiding, lying
In my mind I'm fighting
No confiding to no one
'Cause no one saw the things I saw
When I was dying

The fires gone out
And now the skies filled with clouds
Ain't no shelter on my head
But still the rain will come down
'Cause who waits for me?
Just forget 'bout GC
'Cause Growing Cold
Will be just letters carved in a tree

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Roses grow
In places we used to go
Flowers sit in place
Of the thought of your face

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Overgrown
And under shown
I need to find my home
In a place I know

Just the buzz of the green light
A lover don't mean shit
She's kissing on me, mind
But in the mean time
She's telling her friends
"This shit's got to end
I'm stuck in this ship
I'm fucking dying with it"

But I don't mean shit
My wrists are fucking slit
I'm just a fucking bitch
And she's over this
Mind, I fucked this all up
It still fucking sucks
When it's all my fault
My fucking life's at a halt

So I'ma keep it moving
Making songs so I been grooving
Putting in the work
And when this drops
I'ma prove it
Choosing life over love
But still living life on the run
It's no fun

I put my mind out there by using a gun
Blast through my fucking skull
I'm just too fucking dull
And everyday I live is proving
That I'm not meaningful

So before I go
I'ma prove
I got something left to show
And even if I lose
I'm gonna shine before I blow

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Roses grow
In places we used to go
Flowers sit in place
Of the thought of your face

A silhouette of you
Was the best I could do
Because the memories faded
The thought of you is vacant
Overgrown
And under shown
I need to find my home
In a place I know
