CAN'T PIN ME DOWN.

do you think i'm stuck up?

you can't pin me down.

back off, motherfucker.*

what do you not like?

you may think i'm one thing but i am another.

you can't call my bluff.

i'm always picking fights.

you're not even close.

it's the one thing i hate the most.

just another girl in the 21st century.

do you like my body?

you need to get your eyes checked.

i am never gonna give you anything you expect.

you think i'm like the others?

i could be your lover.

all these contradictions pouring out of me.

do you like my mind?

what is it that you are having trouble to define?

SOLITAIRE.

i don't want to be compared.

i don't want to talk anymore.

i'm happy to be on my own.

i'll admit all i wanna do is get drunk and silent.

i'm obsessed with silence.

i wanna watch my life unfold all around me, like a beautiful garden.

my heart, it became so hardened.

i covered up my heart in boundaries.

i'm not cursed.

they astounded me at first.

BETTER THAN THAT.

you can do better than that.

another dream come true.

i know i have no right to be mad.

it's a power move.

i know you've been feeling sad.

i know that you're not to blame.

well, i guess it's just what humans do.

i always had my doubts about you.

suspicious from the start.

WEEDS.

could have filled a garden with all the flowers that you gave me.

i just don't know what i can do.

they're the only ones who know me.

when nothing feels enough, at least you taught me how to love.

now i think my time is up.

sex is a way to feel a little bit less lonely.

i miss all of my exes.

just open up your eyes & see.

i tried to keep it covered up.

SAVAGES.

i'm not afraid of god, i am afraid of man.

is it running in our blood?

i'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand.

it's survival of the fittest.

at the end of the day, it's a human trait.

we can be bad as we can be good.

humans aren't gonna behave as we think we always should.

underneath it all, we're just savages.

how could we expect anything at all?

we're just animals still learning how to crawl.

truth is in us all.

has something deep inside of us come undone?

are you killing for yourself or for your savior?

is it a human trait or is it learned behavior?

IMMORTAL.

i wanna be immortal, like a god in the sky.

i wanna be a silk flower, like i'm never gonna die.

we'll always be together, from the end to the start.

i wanna live forever in your heart.

that's what we do it for: to reserve a spot in history.

i'm forever chasing after time.

if i could buy forever at a price, i would buy it twice.

but if the earth ends in fire & the seas are frozen in time — there'll be just one survivor: the memory that i was yours & you were mine.

when you love somebody, they'll always leave too soon.

i wanna mean something to somebody else.

it's not enough to live out a lucky life.

don't wanna live in vain.

i don't wanna be afraid to die.

i wanna feel a significance in the real world.

a memory can make a flower bloom.

we wanna be remembered.

i don't wanna be afraid.

i just wanna be able to say that i have lived my life.

everybody dies chasing after time.

all the things that humans do to leave behind a little proof.

but the only thing that doesn't die is love.
