English Writing calms me.
When thy rose buds part Sweet nightingales song Whispers upon the wind once more

Nightingale's song
I'm moving to London Town To find myself With 8.6 million people around Hectic calm surrounds me Reminded I have nothing to fear With strangers standing by my side Conversations in my head disappear I used to dream of being alone No soul to interrupt my solitude Allowing my thoughts and mind to roam Through the lands of sour regret Imagining I'm better off self abused Than to chance a casual thought of you And yet here I am in London Town With 8.6 million people around And still, not a sound

London Town
When I'm out on my own These thoughts that cross my mind Of you and I laughing in the rain Sitting on a park bench drinking champagne I have always loved you When I'm out on my own Your eyes light the drunken night Navigating our dreams in the sky Your hand fits in to mine Only when the hazy stars align I have always loved you When I'm out on my own But I don't miss you when you're gone And I don't need you like you wish I would In the morning I'll be boarding the fastest train away from you But I will always love you When I'm out on my own

Out on my own
Dream big Small talk Running wild Lost in thought Keep quiet Never question Small talk Lost in thought

Small talk
He can't settle down Wandering the world from town to town Hungry for more than what he was given Tasting the sweetness of that which was forbidden Can't settle down Exploring the world one town at a time Drinking love from those his heart held hostage Thirsty for knowledge Can't settle down

Skin tingles Blood boils Life flashes Burning midnight oil Eyes twitching Fingers scratching Feet tapping Tossing and turning Pressure for perfection Mind racing Body pacing Criticising every inch Panic set Calm exterior Pressure Pressure Pressure Of feeling inferior

Pressure
If I endure this pain For longer still Would it make you happy To watch me bend my natural will? Bones can break and hearts may shatter But my mind stays crumbling in its cage Begging to be released Mending itself nonetheless They say that Angels live trapped on earth, suffering to be back in heaven. Angels too pure for this world, will leave to return to purer lands. I wish that were true, to tell myself there's somewhere for me to run to. When I end my agony on Earth, It will follow me.

Agony Angel
You lay awake again tonight Dreaming of whispered lies Uttered in the darkest winter When summer rolled around again, Whispers flew away with the wind

Whispering lies
'Truth will out', these words will haunt me. My truth is nothing but bitterness behind watering eyes. For my truth will shatter worlds as fragile as your heart. My truth lies in each dreary hour, in every sleepless night. Let my truth bind you, let it reel you in. Make you powerless, uncomfortable in your skin. Let my truth reveal your demons, realise your flaws. Let my truth entice you, as my love withdraws. My truth is nothing but bitterness behind watering eyes. Truth will out.

Truth
If love is the measure of a man, then what is a man without love? A man without love is a man without pain A man without grief A man without love is a man without responsibility A man without humility A man without love can do as he wishes, for he has not a care in the world. If love is the measure of a man, I'd rather be unmeasurable.
