Like flowers lose their scent, so has our relationship gone in the same direction I feel; I'd love very much to drink in the sweet dew of dawn but the sour remnants of yesterday night's milk stained an acrid reminder in my mouth and in my mind.
I stare blankly into the distance, my mind filled entirely with images of you and the happy times we spent together. Part of me ached, yet part of me feels hollow - the reverberation clearly distinct as when a sound beam is thrown at it. Do I go or do I stay? - The ominous question hung gravely over me.
Rivers move by the ebb and flow of the water, carrying with it the silt and little rocks, all to a
wished i had known earlier
then i would have done so long ago
the things ive always wanted to do
but whod have known things got cold
ive always wanted to stand there with you
stare deep into your eyes, try to fathom
the girl you really are, the girl i really love
and everywhere else the whole world burns
but i thought i had forever
to do the things i wanted to do
so i pushed it back a day
and then another
but whod have known, really
who'd have known that
forever expired today
whats the use now when alls been said and done
well thanks for the times, it's been fun
now i can only dream of the times when
i stay up a
the orange skies here in my head
have bled a deeper hue of red
come step inside take a look
contemplate
the things i've let slip were
things meant to be kept between them sheets
hold me now i'm losing grip
and it's okay if you
steal my sense of wonder
yea angels come with broken wings
and there's no use going under
i think i'm letting it go
but just so you know
these things they don't come easy
no they don't come easy
let's play now we raise the stakes
paint my world in different shades of grey
there's nothing left now
don't cling to the wall
it's better when you fall a gracious fall
so i'm releasing my grip
and we'll see
running through space without the ground in sight
with only the view ahead urging me onwards
nothing but the hardness of earth beneath my feet
i advance without heed
drifting along in a different place altogether
i move yet the ground is no longer felt
nothing seems to make sense
as i wander about; i float
now ahead lies some stairs
each step forward crumbles away
yet an invisible ground holds me up
persistently i climb; i head towards nowhere
slowly exhaustion creeps in
i find myself in the middle of a vast endless plain
seeking solace from the bed of soft earth
i lose myself completely
