Matias M

We kicked it off by writing a story,
but can Cinderella be a man?
Am I the stupid in distress?
Or is this what you expect it to be?

You can't blame me for walking away
from someone who was already gone.
This love was over your head.
It was much easier to quit.

Call me names, I still hold what I say,
it was too much for you to fight for it.
Make up your mind, stop drinking wine,
your judgment gets clouded so easily.
Chapter one, I was a little angel.
Chapter two, you packed your things.
Grab the ticket, I won't stand on the way,
that's how the story ends.

Change your speech, this epilogue is a disaster
unlike the prologue you were so proud of.
You're not a hero, you're turning into a monster
and I don't need you. I just need my freedom.

You can't blame me for walking away
from someone who was already gone.
If you slammed the door first,
don't try opening a window.

Call me names, I still hold what I say,
it was too much for you to fight for it.
Make up your mind, stop drinking wine,
your judgment gets clouded so easily.
Chapter one, I was a little angel.
Chapter two, you packed your things.
Grab the ticket, I won't stand on the way,
that's how the story ends.

You can't blame me for walking away
from someone who was already gone...
You can't blame me for walking away
from someone who was already gone.
Don't tease me that cheap and basic way,
you are the real author...

Call me names, I still hold what I say,
it was too much for you to fight for it.
Make up your mind, stop drinking wine,
your judgment gets clouded so easily.
Chapter one, I was a little angel.
Chapter two, you packed your things.
Grab the ticket, I won't stand on the way,
that's how the story ends.

I say whay I want but you don't care,
to my struggles you can never relate.
I speak my mind and I'm always ignored.
If this hurts me, you don't understand,
somehow I'm always the one to blame
and you pour salt on my wounds when you ask me.

Do you really not mind the way this
affects my life? Is it necessary
to go over it again?
Yeah, my skin's made of glass.

I stand in the background and you don't see
I wave my hands so you notice me.
I try to holler and my voice sounds weak,
and yet you cover your ears and ignore me.

Bouncing into the walls of the back of my head.
They hurt me and I have to reach out to them instead.
You say there's so much more for me to understand.

Do you really not mind it still hurts?
I can't make amends with someone
who chose to wreck my world
out of simple personal pleasure.

I stand in the background and you don't see
I wave my hands so you notice me.
I try to holler and my voice sounds weak,
and yet you cover your ears and ignore me.

I wuv you, I forgive you, let's be friends.
Oh, dang!
I don't wanna lie to please you.

Now you can go and lash out.
I'd swoon if you didn't do that,
I've seen it happening thousands of times before.

Now you're on the brink of
another panic attack, so typical
of you every time you're caught lying.

I don't care what my therapist says,
I don't wanna change a single thing.
I like myself this way, I just don't like you.
I don't care if you tweet I'm childish,
ghosting is another way of living
and caring for my mental health like you never did.
You are so greedy...
Loving you is irritating...
You are so frustrating...
Being patient is so phoney!

I wuv you, I forgive you, let's be friends.
Oh, dang!
I don't wanna lie to please you.

You swore you were gonna be solid,
but your intentions are always gas!

Now you're on the brink of
losing your already eroded common sense.
I'm the only one having a modicum of it.

I don't care what my therapist says,
I don't wanna change a single thing.
I like myself this way, I just don't like you.
I don't care if you tweet I'm childish,
ghosting is another way of living
and caring for my mental health like you never did.
You are so greedy...
Loving you is irritating...
You are so frustrating...
Being patient is so phoney!
Clear?

"Where are you, babe?"
"Why don't you reply?"
"Please, don't ignore."
"I'm about to uninstall
all the apps on my phone
and I'm gonna make sure
this holy world knows
this is all your fault."

I expected much more, yeah
from someone who was in middle school, yeah
by the time I was born, yeah.
I guess life makes you go backwards.

No, no, no. You're just a sucker.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Going live on Instagram.
Blah, blah, blah. Crying and making a fuss.
Hey, dud, don't even mention my name.

I don't wanna be related
with this childish tantrum.
I don't want your silly friends
making tags, curses and love potions.
Stop banging your head,
don't think of dyeing your har
another silly color to show you're upset,
moving or whatever the hell it is.
15 minutes and you were already done.
I was already blocked, jynxed and grounded for life.
I haven't done a single thing
stop telling all your friends
they must text me and tell me this is the end.

I expected much more, yeah
from someone who was in middle school, yeah
by the time I was born, yeah.
All the red flags waved to my face instead.

No, no, no. You're just a sucker.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Going live on Instagram.
Blah, blah, blah. Crying and making a fuss.
Hey, dud, don't even mention my name.

"Where are you, babe?"
"Why don't you reply?"
"Please, don't ignore."
"I'm about to uninstall
all the apps on my phone..."
Do whatever you please,
but get outta my sight.
I don't want you, childish brat.

I could have a number one song
but I don't wanna be alone on the top.
I'm so tired of walking on my own,
I just need a shoulder to rely on.
to feel I belong in this world.

And one day I'll see, I'll feel
there's a reason behind it
'cause I know, I believe
there's much more to it.
Life's a rollercoaster
so why am I always this down
even if I'm on the top,
even if I'm still number one?

One is the loneliest number,
always craving for another one to be there
to be meaningful at last
'cause it's pointless to be alone in the dark,
to feel you're divided in halves.

And one day I'll see, I'll feel
there's a reason behind it
'cause I know, I believe
there's much more to it.
Life's a rollercoaster
so why am I always this down
even if I'm on the top,
even if I'm still number one?

Everyone I know has unsolved issues,
we're all scared souls going through
a long dark corridor,
we all fear a little
we may not come to see the light,
we may end up losing the fight
'cause one sometimes isn't enough
to be brave and stand up.

And one day I'll see, I'll feel
there's a reason behind it
'cause I know, I believe
there's much more to it.
Life's a rollercoaster
so why am I always this down
even if I'm on the top,
even if I'm still number one?

It'll always be spring in your eyes,
I see myself reflected, it's paradise
'cause I don't need to feel the sun
on my skin to know it's getting warm.

And the roses blossom
if you're around,
when I hear you laughing like a child
and my heart skips a beat
when I touch your hand
and you say you'll love me for a lifetime.

Tonight my heart will open up
and you'll get to live inside.
Throw away the key and light a fire
so it never gets dark again.
Tonight my heart will open up
and I'll get to call you mine.
The starts will light up the sky
and write your name and mine across.

It'll always be a summer night
every time you hold me in your arms.
Cozy, refreshing under the stars
and really sweet at the break of dawn.
Hold up, come again, what?

And the roses blossom
and it's no surprise,
love always thrives in the sunshine
and my heart skips a beat
when you kiss my skin,
when you love me desperately at will.

Tonight my heart will open up
and you'll get to live inside.
Throw away the key and light a fire
so it never gets dark again.
Tonight my heart will open up
and I'll get to call you mine.
The starts will light up the sky
and write your name and mine across.

I know I'm ready for your love,
this is what I deserve for being a good boy.
Yeah, I'm ready for your love.

Tonight my heart will open up
and you'll get to live inside.
Throw away the key and light a fire
so it never gets dark again.
Tonight my heart will open up
and I'll get to call you mine.
The starts will light up the sky
and write your name and mine across.

You sashay across the street
as if everybody turned to see
the fancy clothes you're wearing (no one ever did!)
and you don't care about me,
I'm standing here, talk to me
but you only mind about that screen (such a silly thing!).

You needn't be this swanky,
I'm going blind with all this glitter
and you end up being wanky
then I'm a hella wxxxxx
'cause you don't even care
what's going on in here.
I'm another of your belongings.
Hell, you deem me this kitschy.

Darling, you make me doze off
every time you drone about
nothing in particular,
I guess we're really going backwards.
Lights go on, lights go out
with you I end up in dreamland
'cause, baby, you make me doze off
every time you open your mouth.

Everybody highlights your elan,
they ignore the downside
of living with someone like that (a real bugger!).
It gives me a blistering headache,
a twinge that never goes away
'cause you only focus on yourself (it's so frustrating!).

You needn't be this swanky,
with no hair out of place
you end up being wanky
being this perfect and clean
and I'm growing tired.
I need someone to take risks,
to desire me and grope at will.
Someone to really go wild.

Darling, you make me doze off
every time you drone about
nothing in particular,
I guess we're really going backwards.
Lights go on, lights go out
with you I end up in dreamland
'cause, baby, you make me doze off
every time you open your mouth.

I'm not needy, I just don't need
someone who considers me
an object, a possession,
empty inside, with no passion.
I'm not needy, I just don't need
someone who focuses on what they think.
An object, a possession,
with no blood running through their veins.

I don't know if I'm childish,
maybe I'm too gullible,
too easy to deceive.
I don't know if you're too cruel,
why you do what you to,
why this never follows through.

I don't wanna trust the stars,
wait for the universe to align.
I just wanna take the lead
and make you fall in love with me.

But loving you is like a spell
cast in a fairy tale,
it always comes to an end.
Loving you is trying to guess
which day you're gonna stay
and when you're gonna leave.
I'm tired and bored and fed-up with what you do.
I don't wanna hear about you if it's another ruse.
Loving you may seem so fascinating
but in the end
magic's always a trick.

Use that power over me
to keep me in awe of silly things,
mooning over empty promises.
Unwilling to come around,
I'll follow you until I'm out
of air and yet I won't stop.

I can't read your mind,
I don't have that power
but I can't ignore the signs,
the red flags warning of your danger.

But loving you is like a spell
cast in a fairy tale,
it always comes to an end.
Loving you is trying to guess
which day you're gonna stay
and when you're gonna leave.
I'm tired and bored and fed-up with what you do.
I don't wanna hear about you if it's another ruse.
Loving you may seem so fascinating
but in the end
magic's always a trick.

You always disappear
in a hazy and glittering
way that is addictive and seductive
but I should know it's one of your tricks.

Loving you is like a spell
