I see the world through a lens / And I choose my words carefully
I want to be on the moon because everything is gray and I will feel lighter I won't have to see you anymore In the ugly fluorescent light looking through me reminding me that you don't care My heart used to pound and shake vibrating like the sound of your voice But I don't hear you anymore Only clouds will know how I drift away Take me to the moon! I shout But the mud around my feet is pulling me in Now if you wanted to hear my voice I would give you a tree to plant and pretend that it is me Whatch is grow like you wanted me to. Il watch from the moon.

Silence. Everything is gray.
open your eyes see the pain in the eyes of the people around you that laugh most they smile with dead eyes it pains me to watch you can't empty the pain in someones veins without them being in danger of bleeding out or getting some of that pain **** under your skin all of the darkness in this world is never going away but that's okay we've got the sky we've got the stars and we have each other

We've got the Sky// We've got the Stars
shone through the curtains like milk spilling from a bottle the sun gave me light in the gloom morning and she shone from that pale peach sky whispering "you can do today" so i got out of bed with cracking knees and crusty eyes drank my bitter coffee pretending it tasted alright i met my own eyes in the mirror and said to myself "you can do today"

mornings
When our lips touch I want fire and tsunamis to be jealous of our storm, I want the waves crashing against the rocks to pause and feel our energy. I will not settle for anything less, for it would be a disappoint to my being; to my foundation that makes me gasp for breath in the night, longing for fire.

I Long For Fire
