The cavity in my chest feels empty,

but it’s weighing me down just the same.

I feel so lost,

and it’s far too quiet in this big old world to cry tonight.

I just gave you a road map to my heart, now use the compass you found months ago

They used to tell me that it was either sink or swim.

In these waters though, I think it’s the perfect time to test my wings.

You’re burning the whole town down.

It’s slow but quickening,

the more you hide the faster we burn.

Your bridges are crumbling

into ashes above angry rivers.

They flow with the force that the water gives.

Meanwhile we burn,

our sweat the only source of liquid.

We’re drowning in it but drying at an accelerated pace.

Your destructive path leaves much to be desired.

Have you ever looked into that rear view mirror,

seen the chaos that you unleash in your wake?

Around us all the light and the noise are intoxicating. It’s time to go, it’s time to hit the floor...

Around us all the light and the noise are intoxicating.

It’s time to go, it’s time to hit the floor and touch the gas.

If you ever choose to come down from your insanity,

visit me in reality.

You’ve been drifting for so long,

and I’ve been out on a limb for too much time.

The horizon line is blocked,

and I can’t see anything through this fog.

But if you’d be willing,

I’d forget everything.

No one looks normal under the mask.

Everyone has inner demons hung out to dry,

dirty laundry has a way of resurfacing.

Those scars will be seen,

the only evasive technique is to be ready.

In this moment, I could spread my arms and believe I could fly.

In this moment,

I could spread my arms and believe I could fly.

Light doesn’t only come from under the lampshade, I can see it in your sheepish grin.

Light doesn’t only come from under the lampshade,

I can see it in your sheepish grin.

If I could be anything in the world

I would be a raindrop on the back of a dragonfly’s wing.

She would carry me to incredible heights,

and drop me down into amazing beauty.

Where is the key,

you’ve hidden it under cups.

Rotating them quickly until I can’t see it anymore.

I want the rain to dance on my head,

the wind to whisper delicate phrases into my ear,

the sounds of the birds to fill me up with food.

Thu, 23 Aug 2012 11:51:46 -0400

We all hold pieces of the past,

in the photographs that slowly fade.

The nicknacks we collected along the way,

slowly are thrown away.

I want you to cry until it hurts to breathe. I also want you to breathe until it hurts to cry.

Thu, 23 Aug 2012 05:33:19 -0400

I want you to cry until it hurts to breathe.

I also want you to breathe until it hurts to cry.

Hello, hello? Can you hear me where you are? I miss you so dearly.

Wed, 22 Aug 2012 23:56:35 -0400

Hello, hello?

Can you hear me where you are?

I miss you so dearly.

I can see you there lurking in the shadows, waiting to bite my ankles and pull me down.

I can see you there lurking in the shadows,

waiting to bite my ankles and pull me down.

I want to take you to the ocean.

You think everything is in pieces.

Did you know that the shore gets crumbled,

by each wave that slaps its gentle face.

Pieces of sand wash away into that water,

and still the shore remains strong.

Hang on tight and we’ll go for a spin, down the lanes of what should have been.

Hang on tight and we’ll go for a spin,

down the lanes of what should have been.

Guilt is my best friend, though it shouldn’t be present.

Guilt is my best friend,

though it shouldn’t be present.

Sun, 29 Jul 2012 11:43:00 -0400

Call me evil,

because I hold onto my anger.

Call me cruel,

because I just can’t throw it in the wind.

Call me anything you like,

but I having a hard time forgetting the pain.
