You hold the hair dryer in your hand Blowing hot air right at your man Looks so nice right after the cut Talking about *** gives them enough Your stories keep them on the edge What you do behind his back How your needs aren’t met Glad you use contraception Underneath the veil of deception What happened to make you this way Thinking that cheating is ok Betraying all your lovers trust All your love turns to rust Flip em over, do it again Theres always something That’s wrong with the men So shallow to look inside Find out where your fear hides You don’t need a good reputation Underneath the veil of deception Someday soon you will see That things don’t work dishonestly Try to see from the other side If you were deceived could you abide? Karma isn’t a new ideal See you one day when you are real

The veil of deception
I took for granted what was in my hand and I threw it all away Doesn't matter, call me a fool Just have a little faith Don't see a way to be a friend I hang from the ledge I was blind I tried to see there is no possibility?   Broken glass in a window frame I cannot find the right words to say stars emerge as they fade away It wasn't supposed to end this way These broken embers feed the flames as I swim into the sun I lose my breath in the winter chill It's just something to overcome Looking forward to our history You were always a mystery We forgot that we had to live What we get is what we give Broken glass in a window frame I cannot find the right words to say stars emerge as they fade away It wasn't supposed to end this way

Broken glass in a window frame
I miss the day when we were clear We used to sit underneath the shade You always had it made and all the gold was yours We travelled through the forest Went to sleep by the river Now I'm frozen to the bone Looking for an answer The stars just seem so near Milky way!! I'm erased from your pictures Eyes of the kindest blindness but theres always a rhyme a reason Theres just no denying .... this See the carousel colors spinning and my fears fade away Now do you think that you can relate Do you envy someone else's fate? Avoid the truth like the plague I remember you when you were my baby cause I shake ............. the air ..........

The forest
Just like the fisherman out on a lake Don't let keeping the fish be your mistake battle for joy Lick the fin but when you have won thrown them back in And in the end She won't be hurt There will be no blood on your shirt She'll go on again and get hooked on the line get thrown back in and be someones find

Catch and release
The more I try the less I succeed The more I cling to The more I loose The more I need the less satisfied The more I search The less I find What you seek is hidden yet right in front of you The things you need are all available to you The dark becomes light and the shadow eludes you like you elude yourself but you may find something in the night hunting for shadows with a flashlight

Hunting for shadows with a flashlight
There are so many things we can't understand but we look the other way sometimes we get it wrong and don't correct it because we don't know where we are headed Get in your car I want you so much Come to my house We'll get ****** up then go to sleep I will hold you close and wonder if were in too deep When you walk down the street Do you see my face? In the windows and the shops That we used to go to Do you remember those times? When everything was good and you cooked for me while you were naked The dishes were clean and you made up the bed with a note on it saying you that you loved me but I made a mistake that I cannot undo and I see your refection in the windows

Get in your car
When I was born my head was soft My high chair I fell off It hurt and I shed tears That's when I learned to fear As time went on I tested fate Did crazy things on roller skates Climbed high trees and then fell down Bruised and torn, a purplish brown In my teens I fell in love It felt like a heavenly drug Then one day she broke my heart What once was sweet, now was **** And then adulthood quickly came And many days were filled with shame Climbing trees in concrete jungles Dreams easily crumbled Life is tough, wear a helmet Don't back down when you cannot bear it Get up, walk and persevere You can overcome your fears
