Turn around and don't look back
They won't miss you, I tell myself that
Life isn't a fairytale
No one knows what lies beyond the trail
Paint a picture you want to see
But it's always too far to reach
The ending I can never tell
Spinning on an abandoned carousel
Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me
Run away and hide somewhere safe
I'm not strong enough for this hate
The world is a cruel cruel place
And I have lost all faith
I crave for that human touch
But emotions they get me rough
I'm a shell of who I used to be
Heart soul hollow and empty
My anxiety keeps me up at night
Small seeds grow into parasites
So caught up in the thrill of taking flight
You forgot the risk of falling
The value of life is now tied to cash
Strung by numbers till we turn to ash
Nightmares disguised as dreams
Torn apart right at the seams
So misunderstood like Socrates
So misunderstood like Joan of Arc
Tied to these stakes but I'm too dazed right now to care about my fate
The messages have stopped coming in
I'm now just a distant memory
Erased from the world, now no one can ever find me
Someday maybe the mystery will be solved
Like Earhart, Ambrose, and H. Holt
Carry my intentions through the wind calling
This is my final bidding
Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
I'm in my sanctuary
I'm in my sanctuary
Standing still throughout all the seasons
I'm out of touch but it's for a reason
Hiding in my sanctuary
Away from the world
I'm so lonely but I like being alone
You can call me but I never pick up the phone
Hiding in my sanctuary
I know it ain't easy for the ones who love me
(I'm in my sanctuary)

Red

On a somber fall day
The leaves quietly float away
The eerie calm
Is just a warning for what's to come
The sky is falling down
But we're still chasing for the crown
The pride in our tribe
Blinds us from disguises
Of our true enemy
You could see them in your dreams
But truths are hard to believe
Might as well live in a conspiracy
Bombs away
The shadows will fade
Into ashes of those forgotten
I bleed red
You bleed red
We all bleed red
We all bleed red
I bleed red
You bleed red
We all bleed red
But that's already been said
That's already been said
And the seasons change
The world turns unfazed
All of our sufferings and pain
Can be summarized on a page
Problems come and go
Don't let that consume your soul
So why can't we put down our guns
Why do we always gotta fight
Gotta fight
We gotta fight
We gotta fight
I bleed red
You bleed red
We all bleed red
We all bleed red
I bleed red
You bleed red
We all bleed red
But that's already been said
That's already been said

3am thoughts

Shit I'm on cloud nine again
My feet so light flying high I'm so elated
Fuck the world I'm getting faded
These laws and norms are overrated
Work till you stress and get frustrated
All that you know is simulated
Never without a drink in my hand
I ain't tryna make conversation
No use now sticking to a plan
Life is always changing directions
Everything is just a point of view
You're delusional if you think you know the truth
3am thoughts
Got me tied up in a knot
Sleep walking on the lot
To somewhere I forgot
I kinda wanna live
I kinda wanna die
Too indecisive can't make up my mind
3am thoughts
Keep me frozen in the spot
Wondering when I'll fall
Once and for all
Who gave you permission to live in my head
Take the eviction notice and never come back again
I don't wanna dish out and pay these bills so
Imma loop around before you reload
Take a shot from behind I got no ego
Head to Taco Bell and order a burrito
When that midnight hunger strikes
I'm all gassed up stumbling about
Like where the hell am I
(Where the hell am I)
You counting sheeps I'm counting ducks
You gotta live life not giving a fuck
These wisdom come with age
But with age now it's too late
(I'm getting older)
Calm down I'm just messing around
My mind's full of strange noises and sounds
Think I got injected with the universe
Always making something new with the fairy dust
3am thoughts
Got me tied up in a knot
Sleep walking on the lot
To somewhere I forgot
(Where am I)
I kinda wanna live
I kinda wanna die
Too indecisive can't make up my mind
3am thoughts
Keep me frozen in the spot
Wondering when I'll fall
Once and for all
Who gave you permission to live in my head
Take the eviction notice and never come back again
The world don't care about your problems
They got their own to worry about
I used to long for sympathy
Till I found out you were all just like me
Fucked in the head
Can't tell what's right and what's left
Think I need some therapy
But my soul's now way beyond your reach
Wiping my glasses clean
Now it's clear I'm in a false reality
Get drawn out by Groening
Maybe that'll show me my destiny
Used to hate being alone
Now I'm married to it
My friends probably think I'm dead
Cause I keep on ghosting them
(Oops)
But I'm sorry I
Just can't handle the stress of who I am
Tryna find a reason to keep on breathing
Dive head first into the ocean
Maybe I'll find comfort
Under the crushing pressure
Get these thoughts out my head
Get these thoughts out my head
(Get out, get out)
And will you still love me
When I finally find peace

I'm Not Living
02:25

I keep chasing the money to fill the void
Hoping to buy my way to joy
But it won't compensate
For my battered mental state
I'm running after these fake dreams
That I convinced myself it's my destiny
But it won't satisfy me
Won't bring me any kind of peace
Day by day it's all the same
Put in the work but nothing changes
Time pass by but I don't age
Been stuck in the same place
Tryna escape from all the noise
But I'm surrounded 360
You always selling me something
You always selling me something
Go to work and I become the voices
Gotta capture you 360
I'm always selling you something
I'm always selling you something
What's our relationship but just another brand deal
Plaster up your name till the disconnect becomes real
I keep chasing the money to fill the void
Hoping to buy my way to joy
But it won't compensate
For my battered mental state
I'm running after these fake dreams
That I convinced myself it's my destiny
But it won't satisfy me
Won't bring me any kind of peace
Tryna sell you the lifestyle to cope with the fact that
You don't have free will
Stop being in denial
Racking up clout but what you gon do with that
Can't use it on your death bed wishing that
You gave more of a shit of what you want
And less of a shit of what they need
Utopia ain't such a fantasy
If we weren't so fucking greedy
But who am I to talk
What the fuck do I know
Just waiting for that damn ticking bomb to explode
I keep chasing the money to fill the void
Hoping to buy my way to joy
But it won't compensate
For my battered mental state
I'm running after these fake dreams
That I convinced myself it's my destiny
But it won't satisfy me
Won't bring me any kind of peace

Disappear

The rackets in my head
Be driving me mad
240 down the highway
Just doing a dash
The force's compelling
Sucking away my cash
What you think about that
What you think about that
I keep search for a higher power but nothing comes my way
I'm the hero I'm the villain in this game I play
Happy birthday
Soon it's your dooms day
Don't wanna be a prey
So Imma grind away
Dancing around doing ballet
Your words giving me a stomach-ache
Circoviridae
Pardon my naivete
I don't wanna face
Rather run away
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Fucking disappear
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Disappear
Meticulously spending calculating
Stacking bills till I'm fantasizing
Crashing down from the aggravating truth
That you'll never find your footing
Tripping over shoestrings
They got you upside down
But you still think you got the upswing
Isn't that berating
Isn't it debilitating
The devil's knocking on my door
But it's only 6am (Shit man it's too early)
I tell him to come back later
Would you do me a kind favour
What you do what you say is not the same
Like Pythagoras I am self-proclaimed
Am I a genius or just insane
Motivated and driven by the pain
Flailing about acting erratic
You're such a little fanatic
Carrying around a semi-automatic
Never thought life would be so traumatic
Don't be so irrational
Why'd you kill her
I don't know
Oh I'm so sensational
In exile
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Fucking disappear
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Disappear
What a letdown the world is these days
Broken promises no longer face
If you want something done right do it yourself
Ain't nobody else giving you their wealth
I'm my own goddamn woman
Self-made as hell (yes I am)
I'm my own goddamn woman
And I'm feeling unwell
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Fucking disappear
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Disappear
The world is on fire and I'm caught in the midst of it
What the fuck is my luck there ain't nothing left to fix
Standing on opposite sides
Born enemies till we die
Never becoming the dignified
These tears streaming down my face are just a side effect of my maniac episode
It's quite an overload
Self-imposed disciplinal
Might overdose on fentanyl
It's about time that you should know
You should let 'em go
You should let 'em go
I'm an addict
I'm addicted
To the salvation of the conflicted
Shaped by martyrs
We think we're smarter
Just to fall back into the same charter
Hypocrite
Affectionate
Philanthropic
Narcissist
It's so intricate, it's so delicate
Why not destroy it for the hell of it
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Fucking disappear
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna
Disappear
I'm not evil just misunderstood
Always turn bad but I'm tryna do good
Use to wanna make it to Hollywood
Now I'm just tryna make a livelihood
I hear preaches of peace, but I never see
Just more lies to appease unrelenting pleas
Every living day is a raging war
Every living day is a raging war
I keep searching for a higher power
But nothing comes my way
I'm the hero I'm the villain in this fucking sick game I play
If you want something done right do it yourself
I'm my own goddamn woman
And I am here
