Peace, at last.

We walked through the graveyard,
laughing between ourselves.
At one with our child like selves,
putting the sadness on the shelf.
i’ve not felt that light in fields of death
It was like waking for the first time,
my first real breath..
real breath.
Oh, peace at last.
Why did you fly away from me?

Souls

Can’t you tell where I’ve been?
You can see it from the lines of my face.
Can’t you see what I’ve seen?
You can see it by the blood in my eyes
Can’t you tell where i’ve walked,
you can judge it by the shape of my calves
I can’t tell how you feel
We are all the secrets of our past.
You don’t know my soul, I don’t know your soul
We’ll connect in levels until we grow old
But theres a part that we keep to ourselves
The shapes, the lies, the blood, on the shelf..
You don’t my soul, I don’t know your soul.
You’ll never know my soul, I’ll never know your soul.

Reality

It’s time to let you go, I know.
I’ve heard what I want to hear,
I’ve seen what I want to see
It’s time to go back to reality
I’ll turn and walk away, from the fray
I know I’ve done all I can, I’ve given every part of me
It’s time to go back to reality.
Oh no,
i don’t want go to back to reality
It all makes perfect sense, in my mind.
you’re scared of loving me, you’d much rather be free
How long can I keep up this imagery?
The truth is clear as day, I hate to say
i’m just not the one you see, in your future destiny
it’s time to go back to reality
Oh no,
i don’t want go to back to reality
Oh no,
i don’t want go to back to reality, no.

Bored
03:07

my teeth are hurting mama,
grinding them in my sleep
my cheeks are hurting mama
clenching them in my dreams
its just this world that we live in
can’t we just start again?
sitting in bars, looking out the window at the stars
man, I’m getting bored.
my eyes are heavy mama,
working all hours of the day
my livers squirming mama
as i drown my sorrows using my pay
it’s just this life that I’m leading
can’t i just start again?
sitting in bars, looking out the window at the stars
man, I’m getting bored

Crawl

what more can i do?
I’m already just living for you
take me down to the pits of hell
no givin, just take take take
no lovin, just a lot of hate
take me down to the pits of hell
filling you full of shame
you can’t even say my name
take me down to the pits of hell
aint what you thought id be
don’t even recognise me
take me down to the pits of hell
shut the door as i go
my destination still unknown
i aint feeling so very well
maybe ill just find a cave
or maybe ill just change my name
i aint feeling so very well
you’re telling me i have a choice
to whisper or to raise my voice
let me crawl back into my shell
sighing at me when i wake
grab my shoulders and you shake shake shake
let me crawl back into my shell
You say its for my own good
blunt words released from under your hood
til that day, things were going swell
lies being disguised as truth
aging me out of my youth
til that day, things were going swell
ill leave without a trace
don’t worry, you won’t be seeing my face
ill just be a story to tell
All i ever wanted was your love
without the pushing and that last shove
ill just be a story to tell

God it hurts
02:18

I wake up tired and lonely
just like yesterday
i told the man that I loved him
and he just threw it away
ill never put myself out there again
i forgot how much it burns
I’ve learnt my lesson this time
Oh god it hurts
Oh god it hurts..
Now I’m a solo soldier
just marching along
Protected by my armour
but softened by a song
we brush paths sometimes
we’ve little words to say,
you wish you’d told me you love me,
but you just threw it away.
Oh god it hurts..
i wake up tired and lonely
its been a year
i hear you have a new lover
and i shed some new tears
but then I brush off the ashes
and I see how far I’ve come
I take a walk to the park
to feel the heat of the sun
I’m sure ill find the one
until then ill enjoy the heat of the sun

Goodbye, dreams.

I’m feeling older than I ever have
im younger than most i know
my health is getting real bad
just don’t feel up for shows
and it got me wondering, last night
is it time to give up the dreams i had
doesn’t even pay my way,
keeps me in a city i hate
breathing in the dirt, soaking up the rain
just feels like its getting late
and it got me wondering last night
is it time to give up the dreams i had
go rent a house in the country
change career, quit the scene
let my body rebuild in the air
you get the idea, you know what i mean
easier said than done
giving it up and just walking away
let it break my heart in time
or severe the cord quick without the wait
i’ve been thinking about it a while
am i too broken to reach for the dreams i had?
