Phases - Wish You Were Here

1. To whom it may concern -
I'm on the verge of collapsing
All of my misfortunes laid out in front of me
It feels like my foundation has been crumbling
I'm slowly suffocating, Buried beneath

All these songs I've been writing about the same old shit
They end up trapped in notebooks, Suicide notes that are novels thick
But they aren't cries for help, i haven't been sawing away at tired wrists
I'm merely expressing my discontent for everything, born into world where i shouldn't exist

This isn't my how a man should live
Obsessed and content with his own death
Struggling with thoughts of selfishness
Fantasies of stepping in front of trains and dying in my sleep
Spending my spare time writing my eulogy
Every single line is so bittersweet
all the words come oh so effortlessly.

Cursed with the gift of writing words that come true
But i couldnt pen a word of hope cause id be lying to myself and you
Stuck to this paper is only devastatiing truth
Self fulfilled prophecies and front page news
what the fuck i have become
Nothing but a disappointment, a burden to some.
Sleeping away the days, hoping to pass my life away.
Broken fucking broken, cant pick up the pieces, its too late

I'm just one drop of water in an endless ocean
This world wouldnt change if i went missing, this current would keep on flowing.
This is my choice to make. its time to end this pain
This is my choice to make. It was my choice to make

2. I Wish You Were Here
As the sun rises, i feel its shine on my eyes
Visions of you start fading and i have to say goodbye
I beg and i plead for it to let me be, just a few more hours of sleep
Because ive been carrying on a better life with you in my dreams
Theres many miles between, that separate us entirely
And theres nothing that i wouldnt do to have you here waking up next to me

Green eyes. So starry and bright
Enough to make me forget the pain of this life
One glance at me, my heart skips beats
I found a home in you and i never wanted to leave
But youre so far out of reach, and i need you here like you need whiskey to drink

But green eyes, please dont apologize
Theres nothing you can do
You couldnt change my mind that was made up before i met you
My only reason to smile, I lasted longer because of you
My only reason to smile, A new years wish that came true.

To whom it may concern i fucking miss you
To whom it may concern, i fucking need you
I wish you were here, I wish you were here
I wish you were here, I wish you were here.
