I can't believe this feeling ( Read more... )

let's start at the bar
but not go too far
wanna dance and feel the beat
and my weight lifting off my feet

Seventy mph into the sun
and I'm coming undone
Blinded by sunrise
much like I am by your eyes
Then comes the lies
but I'm not surprised.
I'm getting use to
this let down.

Staring at the ceiling
my tears receeding
from my tired eyes
and feeling them fall to my pillow
My heart has fallen too
at first for you
and now like a willow
bending almost breaking.

I guess I cried myself to sleep
a lullaby of weeps
I suppose it was for the best
It was the only way I could rest.

Waiting to no avail
Waking to no voicemail

they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks
but in all my years there are still things im learning
take you for instance
i think i know everything
and you come along and i know nothing
i only want to know you
what you do
how you speak

I went home today-
while wetness drizzled down
yet I was dry as bone
gaining miles
losing my own
my thoughts, myself, everything I knew;
but everything they didn't
the ones who made me, gave me life
were the same who made me purge it
and here i was dry as a bone
on my way home
my dust ahead instead of behind

Your skin ( Read more... )

like a work of art
captured and displayed
strokes and colors
substitute words

i want to hear it from the subject's mouth
want to know the fire behind those fixed eyes
that stare into mine and into my dreams at night

Closer and closer we draw near
to the time when the fear
of losing
outweighs talking.
I can't seem to make sense of things
until I hear the telephone ring.
Will it be her this time?
Or is my heart going for another dive?

I didn't want you to feel unloved ( Read more... )
