Favorite Quote:
There's no such thing as a lost cause.


There's a hole in my heart,
Where you used to breathe.
It's been such a long year,
Waiting around.

And now that you want it,
I found what I needed.
There's no coming back to us.
And now that you need it, I decided to leave it. It's the only decision I trust.

I lost you along the letters in my head,
You'll never stitch the lost hope of you returning, all the covers missing from my bed.

I caught airplanes,
I tried to count miles,
Instead of home in your arms.
I tried to lose my mind,
But ended up wasted in bars.

I will keep my distance. Say your name, when you're not listening.

I wanted to be patient,
And god I tried to fight.
But I'm holding all the tickets,
To every god damn flight.

And it's possible to be homesick for a place you've never been.
