Last time I loved someone
Was when I couldn't speak
Followed everyone's lead…blindly
One face in a crowd always drowned out from shining
Cause who would look back to see that broken heart
That one living in a shell that couldn't restart their heart
That one who gave you the dollar and took the dime
To risk their lives for another's happy ending
That friend that took the blame for the reason you should have went to jail
That person who never left even when it was raining
A one in a million that you could never find them again if they left
In a facade you hide yourself from pain and feeling
Covering in an armor that can't be broken
Even when life's not fair you get over it
When you get compared to others you live through it
To not burden those around you
Cause they are are the broken one who hide their pain
Living through the worst to clear someone's cloudy day
Making the best out of the impossible
To put a smile on when they feel the worst
Never fighting back when someone's pulling them down
Because they know that you have your own problems as well
But in the end it takes them to the darkest place
While you feel the sun's rays
And it's killing them slowly
In a facade you hide yourself from pain and feeling
Covering in an armor that can't be broken
Even when life's not fair you get over it
When you get compared to others you live through it
To not burden those around you
All the weight on their shoulders
To keep others happy brings them down
To a place of insanity
Giving all that they had left
Their organs and fulfilling all their promises
In the end left them dead
And you the one that drove them there
Not knowing until the end
That they couldn't live without their head and heart
Leaving you with the lifeless body that had run dry
Without a heartbeat inside
Hanging for that rope you accidentally tied
Listening to this Jace was intrigued about who made this song as well as many others he found in a USB left on the desk. The voice was impeccable and would be a big hit in the record industry though he didn't know who it was. He had coached many of the famous and talented singers on the spotlight throughout the years bringing them on the map such as Magnus Bane.
"Helen!" Jace yelled through his office door to his secretary. "Yes" Helen answered popping her head around the door. "Did anyone come in here before I came to the office?" Jace asked. "No, the only person who came was you and your sister who only came yesterday for that matter," The blond girl replied in thought.
"Cancel all my meetings, I'm going out."

They say I won't last a day in the real world
But they wouldn't last an hour in mine
Those shadows that haunt you in the real world
Killing you in mine
Oh Ohhh O-
"Is that a new song?" Izzy asked yelling from the back of the parlor where her tattoo station was stenciling a tattoo design on the arm of Jordan who was a frequent customer. "Yes" Clary replied looking down at the progress on a tattoo design she was working.
'Ring'
Door opening a guy roughly 6'1 and full-fledged gold walked in. Eyes assessing his surrounding it seemed, landed on her looking curious as she continued to work in her tattoo station.
Clary was 5'4, with unruly red hair, bright forest green eyes, and freckles. Though at the very moment her hair was in a messy bun held up by a pencil, an old black band shirt she stole from her brother, ripped jeans covered in paint splatters, fishnets under that you could see through the jeans rips, and worn out black combat boots.
Out of the corner of her eye Clary could hear Kaelie the receptionist talking to the man "Are you here for an appointment?" Kaelie asked the guy politely. "No, I'm looking for my sister Izzy." The man relied looking at the blond. "She's in the back." Kaelie replied. "I can show you where it is if you need." Kaelie suggested. "No I'm good, I think I can find it myself thank you though" the blond man thanked turning away from the blond girl and walking toward the back of the tattoo parlor.
Izzy pov
"Done, now don't forget to-"Izzy started.
"I know, I know, you don't need to tell me again. I come here often enough." Jordan said cutting Izzy off. "Fine, now leave I need to clean up." Izzy replied jokingly pushing him out of his chair. "Oh, how you wound me." Jordan said with a smile getting up and leaving to go pay at the front desk.
Cleaning up her work space she got up to ask Kaelie who had the next appointment, but instead bumping into a familiar chest when trying to leave. "Hello, Izzy." Jace said looking down on her.
