eight

that's when i hear my guitar singing
and so i just start singing along
and somewhere in my chest
all the noise just gets crushed by the song

(ani)

it seems that the words
i come up with
aren't ever so good
as the words i hear in song.

music
makes
more
the soft sweetness
of lulling lullabyes that just
tear
you
apart
emotion needs a soundtrack
because that's the only way
it's fully expressed

and so i play my guitar and i hope for something
more
some way to get all of these things out of me
that just don't come
but i can only find it
in other songs
that are not mine
