You didn't blame it on me, but it was my fault. I had everything in the world to do with it It ruined me. I lost you. All to make you happy. Bitterly, this is the case. I was the instigator. All I can do is be here To be here for you. A torrent of confusion mixed with young lust. We dripped with it, thinking bliss. I have opened my eyes, rather, I've had them opened for me. The light is too bright I wish I could go back. My heart is gone, blasted away with my own stupidity. I don't know where to go but you're here. You're here.. You're always here. Here mending my sorrows Here rending my emotions And every voice says "leave her, she'll only hurt you more" but I can't she's so enchanting.

You...
I need your embrace, your loving arms around me. It's like sweet music that I can't help to stop listening to. Each chord struck is another moment with you. All I can do is put the song on repeat. But! I want to compose! I want to create, to live symphonies with you! To feel the pulse of the beat like the pulse of our hearts! I want us to ink on each others' life parchment. Melodious notes that we intertwine together, that makes it an 'us'. An 'us' is all I want. I want records and records with you.

It's like music.
And you could blame it on me Y'know, if it was my fault If I had anything to do with it at all It’d make me happy, Even if I lost you To make you happy. Bittersweetly, that isn’t the case Because I’m not the instigator All I can do is be here To be here, for you.

For You
I’m sorry, I’m sorry. The chorus of voices come from nowhere, And lead me equally so, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Apologizing for an unseen infraction, Nothing is unforgivable. Did it explode? They keep walking, breaking glass. No one around them can stop them. Paying no attention to the pieces of broken glass, They continue on their deadly masquerade, With a malevolent soul supplying the masques. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. The chorus of voices return, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Bringing more meaning to the racing thoughts. Footsteps. Paranoia. The cicadas stop in an orchestrated silence. Step. Step. I’m alone. No one is there. I’m sorry, I’m sorry A dream? Is that what it is? I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Am I crazy? Where are the answers? I need to tell someone. It is killing me. I need to let people know. What good is it, that the ones I need to tell, are yet the ones doing the killing? I’m sorry, I’m sorry, that the truth cannot be shown.

I'm Sorry
A man in a prison, ‘till death do they part Burning wood a wedding ring, twisted steel the altar The roar of the flames is the voice of the preacher The only voice of reality, is that mellow brass sound Drowned about out by the precession, a chaotic occasion A man in adulthood, the world still burning Children born, from the oblivion his home They know not anything else Embracing their home with the ignorance of a newborn A man is an elder, experienced through life To find that the inferno, was just a ward To bide it’s time, patiently waiting For the end of his life, the oblivion has been realized A man playing in slow motion as the world burns around him Not a care in the world, just him and his trumpet He knows what’s coming, but he cannot stop it He just sits back, lets the oblivion consume him.

A Man in a Prison
I got my head in the sand, but it feels like the stars. I got things on my mind, that're too crazy to fly. I got a dream in my future, but traps abound. I got my broken heart pumping, to a new beat, to you.

Someone Like You
Oh what a depressed state of mind, but I can't help but keep this dumb grin on my face. I've got a longing in my heart a longing so deep it surpasses any want of air. It's something so warm as sun-baked stones in the middle of July, something that gives you shivers like the coldest winters' snow, it goes beyond what words can describe, and it doesn't make sense to anyone but you. When you can find beauty in everything in the world, it takes its form. You close your eyes, Lean in closer. And it's Love.

A Bed With a Maid
You're a liar. Decadent. A thief. Harlot, lowlife, general **** You, sir or madam, bring ****** to bed. You are a drunkard in the street. You beg, when you have enough. You, my good friend, have greed and avarice that surpasses all. Please, take my money and my soul. You pig. Any assorted profanity could describe what you are. You lowly little speck of dust. I can't bear myself to be near you. You might start to leech off me. You parasite. What? Me? What are you talking about? I'm none of those. I'm just a hypocrite.

And What are You?
The fresh rain is new love The sights, The sounds, The experience. And even thunder has its place, At first frightening, It shines its own beauty As the passion of love, beckoning for more rain. And the day after, in the soggy aftermath Is lasting love. A catalyst for life Through its nourishing waters. Rain is life, just as love is. Always present.
