CAN'T SLEEP
Blood In My Veins
Lyrics
Smile on my face
From the pills in veins
They’re supposed to numb the pain but I still hate myself
So now I wanna call home
But I can’t let them know
I’m thinking of taking more than I should
Cause Im screaming from all the silence in my head
Smiling to mask the crying in this living hell
And now I’m scared to cry
Cause my tears they burn inside my eyes
And no they don’t wash away
They mix with the blood in my veins
And now Im scared to say that I wasn’t born this way
No the blood in my veins
Doesn’t feel the same
And I guess I’ll never feel the same again
o now I spend my nights
Dancing in the dark
Holding tight to the only part of who I was
But is it better to dance alone
Or to have no one at all
I don’t know, I wish I’d know
Cause I hate my face, my body, my laugh, myself
So what’s the point of waiting for this story to end
Cause now I’m scared to cry
Cause my tears they burn inside my eyes
And no they don’t wash away
They mix with the blood in my veins
And now Im scared to say that I wasn’t born this way
No the blood in my veins
Doesn’t feel the same
I just wanna be happy again
Like all the memories that I see inside my head
But how do I tell my mom and dad
That I’m so scared of who I am
Winter's Fall
Lyrics
Did we lose that spark
Did winter freeze our hearts
I was broken, frozen
It seemed so simple to love
I wish it was
We went from
Stories of laughter and song that we’d share
To stories of heartbreak and days where I am scared to be lonely again
Can’t you tell that I’m scared
And now there’s
no thoughts or no songs since the days that we shared
would you tell me you loved me if it made me happy again
Could you hold my hand
Cause I’m scared to let you go
Or just scared to be alone
My hearts still cold
From last Winter’s fall
And I’m scared to move on
Or just scared that you’re gone
I hear our song
And I’m living in Winter’s fall
Were we meant to separate
Like snow is meant to melt away
Have I lost my mind?
Did our love fall apart?
I tried so hard for us to work
But flowers won’t grow with only dirt
We lost track of time
Our love stopped counting down
Through the cold, through the snow
My heart just needs a hand for warmth
I don’t know what to do
I just know that I love you
Cause I’m scared to let you go
Or just scared to be alone
My hearts still cold
From last Winter’s fall
And I’m scared to move on
Or just scared that you’re gone
I hear our song
And I’m living in Winter’s fall
Oh, Oh Oh Oh
Oh, Oh Oh Oh
ONLY GOD KNOWS
IN LOVE ON MY OWN

PIECES OF ME
THIS IS ME
Living in Belgium until I was 8 years old gave me a simple childhood, but the day we moved to China my life changed. I had to face new challenges. Learning a new language, making new friends, and adapting to a different culture. But the hardest was saying goodbye to my friends and family.
I wasn't happy for most of my time there. I never had anyone to talk to, so I randomly started writing poems and diaries in my notebook. I didn't think anything of it and it was one of the only things I enjoyed.
I later learned how to find chord progressions, and melodies and combine them with my poems. The moment I heard them together I fell in love with songwriting. I use songwriting to express myself, as it's the only way for me to show who I am.
