lyrics

The emptiness I harboured in the questions that I asked was almost palpable, it tasted like the soft skin on your back. And when I said “where did you go?” what I meant was “since you left, I have haven’t had the chance to hate you nearly half as much as I've hated myself”.

We were in love, at least that’s what I came to call it, I was never really quite sure if it was; because in growing up the hardest lesson learned is just because you love someone, it doesn't mean they love you in return.

I always thought you’d fade when I buried you and me, but on our grave a bed of flowers bloomed; and now each day you grow more beautiful as I’m left to decay. I guess it’s true that some things never change.

It’s been quite a long time now but I’m still so weak. I found a bliss in my ignorance until ignorance found hell in me. When I said “where did you go?” what I meant was “Since you left I haven’t had the chance to hate you half as much as I loved you then”.

It’s been a long time now, but I still spend my nights laying away. The kind of tired that sleep wouldn't shake, the kind of empty that fills the entire space in my chest cavity where I tried to keep you safe; but you escaped.

It’s been quite a long time now but I’m still so weak. I found a bliss in my ignorance until ignorance found hell in me. When I said “where did you go?” what I meant was “Since you left I haven’t had the chance to hate you half as much as I loved you then”.

The Tallest of Mountains
by Acres

My forever favorite. Every minute, every second and every note are pure art. As soon as the scream came out, feels like SHOOTING ME IN THE HEART, I am overwhelmed and burst into tears. This is how my life sounds like after the diagnosis of bipolar disorder, just too emotional, and too incandescent. HANGOVER
