the feelings i had for this place once unknown,
remain as feelings i fear, rather than a place to feel home
and while seasons keep dying i already stopped trying
to get emotions in line everytime your eyes hit mine.
it's decisions i've made that caused both love and hate
- for all that i am, for all that i am
for all that i'm not, for ways that i cut,
for every feeling i choked and the promises i broke
but to live - not survive - it's just impossible!
but to live - not survive - as a part of this place
is only bearable while i'm away.
