This marks the first voice memo on this iPhone 4s. Anthony Valentine 2016 fuckin, August 7th at 8:19am fuck yeah
2.
I spoke with you the other night to find you've long been deprived of a love inside. And for all of this that we began to part, it has broken my heart to see you surrender to inimical thoughts. Damn my eyes Your beauty contradicts your mind Damn my eyes Your demons repudiate your halo Damn my eyes Your innocence is shadowed by all of your crimes Damn my eyes For keeping you in sight long enough for me to deprive you
3.
4.
Miles away from sanity, I'm stranded in catastrophe The others just wanna watch me bleed They are the wolves whom thirst in vain (their vanity won't bring the rain) When the tables turn, they're damned to suffer
5.
I could've been something More than just a dreamer confined within the walls of a cell I've been imprisoned by fearing the intentions of everyone else ??? - I can't escape this place
6.
I won't survive if I stay here There's no life. There's no love And hell's so close below What I thought was gold was nothing more than stone
7.
Lover, I fear our passions depletion. There's no love at first sight when it comes to my blind eyes You'll have to excuse my dismal view My heart's been stolen, and it's all that I had left to lose Lover, we're deep in fever now
8.
We've had ourselves a falling out Life always turns our plans upside down Hold on, be strong, I know you could Is there anything that I could say to help you find some joy in your misery? Hold on, be strong. I'm here for you
9.
Here's to the broken souls of heartache's blues I won't surrender myself to the world's most cruel
10.
Until death do us part There are ghosts that remain in the home of my heart There's no more vacancy for love, but I'd rather be vagabond than give it up. Elenaum, the time has come. There's something about your memory A fantasy that's haunted me Enduring the ghost of love It's time to give it up
11.
12.
Days devour my memory Consuming all that I have ever been All of those precious suns Evaporate the river while it runs
13.
This feeling tears at the very seams that hold our love together A thought turned word of mouth is the trojan horse that invades our temples and our homes. We won't admit defeat until it's much too late. I feel it in my bones I'd sink, but I am hollow and have no place to go. Sit back, take view, and watch me fall through all of my headspace which is void of positive thought now. Where do we stand? Where do I go when you've upper-handed the conversation? You will use all of your weapons just to cause a reaction. But how can you attempt to break that in which is already broken? I feel you've suspended your heart from our destination.
14.
You should've known they were in it for themselves. Don't let them take away the heart that's left and redirect your fate Become unstoppable Rectify your life and look beyond the fights that misplaced you like a bullet on the shelf. You must remember a dream's invincibility
15.
I think I can't - will - not try? Given away I never thought this would be my fate They think I can - will not - huh? Try it again I think I will deny my fate Is this my fate? Will I lose everything before I learn my place? When did I sell my soul? When did I sell my soul for sure?
16.
It's late at night, and I can't keep from feelin' sorrow All my borrowed time is still owed to you The one who gave me everything just to be left with nothin' I hope you know this one's for you Apologies don't cut it and I was never good with words, but I wanted you know that all of the hurt and the pain wasn't in vain. Your love is why I changed

Every time I try to cross the line that separates sorrow from happiness I find another mirage. The only thing I've got is a hope to beat the odds. My compass is broken, though I carry on with a strenuos cluster of inimical thoughts. A depression is leaking from the seams of my personality. I'd kept it bottled down, but my false sense of confidence is apparently more transparent than I'd want it to be. Washed up and broken down - I'm looking for a way out. I'm in over my head - looking for the surface again. Somewhere there's solid ground that's been waiting to be found. A place to call my home, so that I no longer have to roam through these avenues that've led me astray. Where passion greets purpose with the hands of certainty.
19.
I must've lost my fucking mind We've become so far gone in such a short time That's right Becoming heartless one day at a time Until there's nothing left for you or I I am a vertebrate without a spine When did self-defense become such a crime? I feel so helpless protecting my mind A reflection in the mirror goes unrecognized
20.
Every time you come you find a way to get inside my head The worst thing that you ever did was notice that I noticed you I believe it when you say I've yet to see what you can do We call it love, so bite the bullet why don't you
21.
I can't give it all away, though I've tried to give you my everything It's never gonna work out if we don't take the time to figure it out Everybody's gotta learn how to evolve without tearing each other apart It doesn't have to be so difficult It doesn't have to feel like a miracle
22.
9-5's (2017) 01:16
Everybody's working nine to five's Just trying to survive, but barely scraping by How can you say you feel alive? Are we running out of time? Is it slipping you by?
23.
I am nowhere, but I'm here

I found you out in the rain on a cold dark night I could've walked on by, but you call for my attention As I came closer, you revealed a beautiful face You said "Don't be shy - come over here before I disappear" Little did I know, I was speaking to a ghost Another soul lost in limbo just like me waiting to be set free From this cruel world When we were young, we had believed that our dreams were neighboring reality Even though we never felt alive, they're the ones who are really dead inside They used everything they needed - drained and depleted, and never even thought about us once Who could've known that this is where we truly begin They should've known that they couldn't kill us again
28.
Everyone I know They only want the throne There's something in our bones that never did belong We'd break a million hearts before we'd ever break our own Heaven's not letting you in, but that's okay It seems as though you've found something off-brand Still shaking off the hurt of living in your own skin? How long's it been?
29.
Won't you ever come around and realize you're not alone? You fake a smile as if they couldn't see the pain Yeah, I felt it too They don't understand this place The story told on your face They do the questioning, but they're not listening
30.
Let's entertain the thought that I won't find what I've been looking for In the final hours of my darkest days, will i even care? Will the fire remain inside? Yeah, my guiding light I gave in to all of my desires Just to find they didn't mean a thing In the end, no one is remembered We pass just like the days
31.
Don't wait around No one is going to help you out That's because they're too busy looking out for themselves Good luck spending your whole life just trying to keep up In the end, life either kills you or you go and kill yourself I do believe it's all for nothing, but that doesn't mean I won't do something
32.
You looked to find love knocking at your door But that wasn't your style anymore Every time you'd put your heart on the line, they'd just break it
33.
Your face was in the falling rain like a ghost back from the dead Even to this very day, I remember the words that you had said "Goodbye darlin' hate to do this to you but, I found someone else instead Later alligator - you're not my crocodile, but it's better off this way" Make or break my heart - it's all you ever do We were the kind of cliché everybody wants to be Something straight out of the big screen until you turned your back on me Good god dammit - why'd the hell you do it? Well I guess I'll never know What we had was from another planet, but I guess I'll have to settle for so and so
34.
We will touch the sky and breach into the heavens Higher than the playing field of angels All of the gods that we ever invented will shed a tear for their creations Lightning will strike to the beat of our rhythms The clouds will mold to our design The constellations will look to us for direction This time, we will know divine
35.
Everybody talks to talk, but rarely walks it too That's just the way it is is and will always be It's hard enough to understand what's inside my own head How am I supposed to figure you? Are you going to break my heart in two? There's no rule of law in trusting you But I have never seen a more beautiful face Are you going to quit at the end of the day? Will you bend, or will you break? Cus' I think we could be something truly great Every thought I'm thinkin' feels like something that I'm dreamin Cus it always seems to do with you I truly do beielve that you're from another planet Cus there's no human like you
36.
Everybody pretends like they don't see it Like I'm the only one around who can see right through what you do How many men have you broken down, kicked around, and pushed right out of your door? Everybody stops Just to take a look and see what you've got to offer Everybody gives you something that they'll never have returned Everybody feels like they will be the ones to turn your luck around Oh, how sweet the sound Girl, your poison Through and through
37.
Where is your god when your unfaithful? Is he up in the clouds, or deep beneath the ground? Without him would you feel shameful? You shouldn't force people to like you And you really shouldn't even have to
38.
I can't give it up You know you've really got me hung up Side down Yeah, you've really got me off the ground Can we try again? I've been needing more than just a friend Something real like you You're the truest of the true Will we trust again after all the lies that we've been fed? All I've ever wanted is staring right back at me You've got me upside down
39.

We could live forever (and never live a day) The most beautiful face I've ever seen was on a screen We could live together (and never know each others names) You could be in rome while sitting comfortably at home This time you'll find you're never really there We could hate each other (and never know each others face) You don't need a reason Just a feeling you deem unsafe You're no longer human (despite what meets the eye) Everything you do is programmed until the day you die

Jenny was a shy girl Never liked school, but learned that she didn't need the real world We've got it all in our hands every moment Look, you've got everything now Finally a reason to just avoid the sun Are you having fun yet? We're upside down, yet feel no fear We're upside down, yet see so clear
53.
Walk a straight line Killing less time now I'll burn it all down just to do it You'd bury me I'd counterstrike It's all that you'd need to prove that I am not the one they know Consequence. Will the cycle ever end?
54.
I'm living with ghosts And their presence cuts right to the bone when I'm alone I'm living with demons And I swear they look just like angels when I am standing close Everyone fears me As if I'm the devil in the flesh I walk along the path of shame To them, it's all a game to play I spent my whole life trying to perfect And worth it to someone like you They turn me into something I am not Unfamiliar to the touch They want to make me something I am not I tell'em all to go hell
55.
I've stuck in the same place, but a little bit older. And a little bit colder. I never moved on Still under that shadow from the heat of the moment When will the fire die and let what's new be grown? I'm days into exile Buried deep in misfortune I know you think that I can't change But I know that I've got to
56.
You've got me deep into hysteria The kind that leppard talked about on the radio I used to dream about you every night You gave me hope in my darkest hours When I still believed that there was nothing here for me

God is dead It's just you and me with what's in our heads For now, keep cool It all ends in flame despite our pedestals I'm with you Millions of lives carving paths through time All leading me to you It's a shame that love is found to lose You'll leave the same way you came in Zero
62.
You talk the talk, but you don't walk it when it's time to decide I know you think you did just fine I bet you didn't fuck him harder than you fucked with my head You've got some nerve calling me tonight... here we go.

sink! (2020) 03:02
It's salt in the wound when you act like a bitch in heat You're not complicated - you just complicate everything Alright, c'mon What do you want from me? Can't you let me be? Oh my fucking god Stuck beneath the floor Oh my fucking god You sink so low You know you sink so low La niña is trouble I walk through this ruble of mine You'd think I'd know better than to sweat a change of plans, babe
75.
You get dirty when you're down in the dirt You only feel lucky when you didn't get hurt Point your finger to the sun And blame the world for getting burned Over again, over again - we'll do the same Once again, once again - nothing will change
76.
Where you from? I think I know You live in dissonance And nothing more If I want out - scream and shout. No one pays attention to anything else anymore. This is it - this is it What you wanted ? ? ? - think of this I've been here before and I'm over it.
77.
78.
All I know is I ain't going home without your love tonight I've been chasin' all my old demons around this town for several days, but you still can't make me change my ways I don't think I've got nothin' to prove babe, I is inalghhh Ohwe
79.
Machtkampf einin Straßen And the streets are filled with assassins And they just love to dress in blue And the red one - yeah, they love that color too. - - There's blood on the street now Some are missing the point Late at night when you get home, do you think about the ones you've wronged? I think not.
80.
81.
Wait, there's something I should say. ... where did you go? I had a real bad dream and I'm still asleep Lover - daughter - and an old friend Wait it out and maybe it'll come back again
82.
You are so black & white Up is down and left is right - you know Why you always gotta be like that? Runnin' around - you silly white rabbit
83.
She's a bitch, she's a punk She will fuck it up You know you know you know me She's just like heroine up in the sky But you don't know why You went and took the crown You've got us all so upside down now You kept us in the dark, but we don't want to stop - no
84.
What is it I am to be waiting patiently for my cue? You said that I had already peaked an unimpressive view. Kill those thoughts and live in mine. I'll be right here waiting for that gun to make me choose.
85.
You've got power now - temporary. You're so fake. Young and naive
