on an empty panel floor i lie here for communion just waiting for one more but in the quiet empty hours of my afternoon what was i supposed to do? and if i want them too will they come to me soon? will they fluctuate between midnight and past noon? was kind of banking on a future that'd be involving you but i couldn't ask this of you
There's a thousand lives you'd like to try but never do But if you come with me, we can find just two
Let's not grow old or act our age,keep signing songs like nothing's changed. Closed fist she hit me square in the jaw, said "I'm a woman and I know what I want!"
Did you get enough love, my little dove? why do you cry? And I’m sorry I left, but it was for the best, though it never felt right, my little Versailles
So this is how it feels to be 24 A thief without a key to an open the door Just peering through the window For any clue Or anything explaining a part of you And I guess the real question that I don't know, Is why I am afraid of letting go?
Wilted, we fade away rotted from the root We exchange our stem for legs We blossom into our bodies And the process has been reset Welcome to your new home
I feel like we could forget about it I feel like I could mellow out I don't feel undone in a big way There's nothing really bad to be upset about, well Just when i thought i was getting better i Woke up on the ground An appointment or a disappointment Any outcome's such a comedown
Because tonight the world turned in me Because right now I don't dare to breathe Oh babe I know, it's alive and somewhere for us to find tonight Chase this light with me
I guess your love Was only as safe As the promise you made You are the storm, the wind, and the waves You break me in two and toss me away I fell apart when I fell for you You are the water filling my lungs Killing me softly without a word
I'll always think it was too early to lose your shine, I guess the means that ends us means nothing, I just hope it's the peace we all need, Because I could love and drown in your God damned smile lines, but I think I burnt up watching you rallying to stay alive, and I guess that's fine. It seems we all get sick, we all die in some no name hospital with the same colored walls, and I guess that's fine This gets me every freaking time and I've listened to this song 100 times
I walked your street again last night And laughed to dull the sting of spite But your door was dark and it made me cry Cause mother always kept you shining bright
bring me to the world of guilt and sorrow for the races tonight where the boats go cutting through undulating mirror images of incandescent spires the roads there are parabolas with nameless water towers near the exits you could turn it all on end still wouldn't be taller than the biotic arch at the crown of creation there are people who put dirty hypodermic needles between the seat cushions in the movie theaters we all have the same dream the night we contract it so maybe i've been sleeping less at your place since the man's last panicked screams startled us awake we're paralyzed as the cop cars arrive casting slow-spinning mobiles on your ceiling we watch the frozen moon in daylight i stare past your eyes' lenses windows framing solar wind rustling ivy on painted pink buildings i've been hearing the soft step of gray-eyed governess but i know you know the physical form of the moaning alarms coming from the air force base a skinless and sinewy leviathan all terrible contraction and release debasement ringed in banner plane exhaust and scattering v's of geese
