Higher

Bad vibes 
Something's not right 
I don't know what it is 
but I feel the negative energy 
I run, I flee
You're not taking me 
The more I run 
the higher I get 
My feet leave the ground 
Higher, higher 
Running through the sky 
I look down beneath me 
This big city 
has become a tiny town 
so far away 
I'm higher than I've ever been 
Higher than the birds
Higher than the planes
Higher than the clouds 
The silence up here is so loud 
Run, just don't stop 
Higher, higher 
Daylight's drawing nigh 
The stars, bright lights 
begin to fade 
I can't run anymore 
and so I fall
faster and faster 
I'm jolted, and then
wake up in my bed 

Fuck You, Ed!

Fuck you, Ed!
& fuck all those shitty lies you put in my head 
Fuck all that bullshit you said 
The binge, the purge 
My vision all a blur
Lights out...
Fuck you, Ed!
Go to hell!
I don't need you 
I don't want you 
I won't starve myself any longer 
for your fake love 
You may have kicked my ass
But, dammit!
Fuck you, Ed!
I love me, not you 
& I'll fight you every day if I have to 
because I won't let you leave me for dead

Cake for Breakfast

Today I'm having cake for breakfast 
You hear the bowl slide across the counter 
Of course you think I'm getting cereal 
But let's be real here 
I'm sneaky & I'm seven 
I'm proud of myself 
Knowing I won't get caught 
I feel like a bank robber
evading the cops 
You yell from the other room,
"Are you eating yet?
You can't be late for school"
I stifle my laughter 
then hide the evidence 
You'll never know that 
I had cake for breakfast

Secrets

Secrets I should've never been expected to keep 
You didn't want to be exposed 
for what you really are 
I won't keep your secrets 
I won't tell lies 
to make you look good 
Believe me; I mean it 
Understood?
I will not remain silent 
What happens in the dark 
Always finds a way 
to come out in the light 
You knew what you did was wrong 
You knew it was all along 
Don't try to twist it 
Don't try to gaslight me 
That won't work on me 
I won't keep your secrets 
Even if your flying monkeys 
you unleash 
I'm so much braver 
so much stronger 
than you can imagine 
Your secrets have no power over me
