This scared the hell(o) out of me jesse. i'm not even kidding. i'm almost crying. lol. it sounds like...like an argument, with yourself, but with some outside force too..

Beautiful smile
Beautiful lie

^ it is a lovely lie..isn't it?

You can't win this battle
I can win this war
The ones that you love
They won't love you more

^ they say love can't be a one way street...they're wrong. you can love and have it never returned..i know how it is to love and not recieve..

A chance, maybe-
You're not even close
She's intoxicating
You took a paralyzing dose

^ absolutely my favorite stanza of the day...wow.

I'm the cold
Inside your chest
Broken, beating
And suppressed

^ just proves a broken heart can still beat..

Look into the mirror
The dark inside your eyes
It's the same darkness
Under your bed it hides

^ scariest flipping stanza..like...ever.

Story of a monster
Lives inside your chest
Screams you don't deserve her
Even at your best

^ you're wrong, you know...you won't believe me. but you're wrong.

great job, jesse...5/5
