The ocean turned purple when I took a dive
The sky turned black when you walked out
Of my life. So I took a deep breath and sighed
While the ravens croaked at me as I pout
I’m the black feathered bird that the Grimm Reaper loves
I’m always followed by a cloud of sadness that’s floating above
I’m always attracting the wrong even when things feel right
My happiness is only there for a second then leaves on sight
I promised I would treat myself better but with all the things that I’ve been through
You knew that I was hurting so why didn’t you take me with you?
I mean, let's face it, we all know I am a fool
For thinking my prayers would change the Grimm Reaper’s Rules
Physically,
I’m scared to let go of people that hold dear to me
Spiritually,
I’m so eager to let go and listen to the wind’s whistling
Back when I was twelve and a misfit
I used to hurt my forearms in the basement
I tried befriending my enemies; told them that I was gifted
But all I had was my imaginations
At a young age, I knew there was something wrong with my system
Just like Cameron, my soul knew my body had no purpose
In living when it lacked rhythm
Today, I’ve experienced no changes because I’m still worthless
Listening to this wonderful sound gave me inspiration for my piece.
