With the wind slithering through the leaves in the tree
It's hard to comprehend the silence in me
My heart does not beat, my lungs do not breathe
My bones do not crack, and my eyes cannot see
But the birds assure me that I'll be alright
With their windchime-like songs, piercing the night
I know that it's safe when the birds are around
But when I cannot hear them, it's danger that silenced their sound
I'm gonna get away
Call me out to Santa Fe
Yeah I'm gonna get away
I wish I could go back to yesterday
Call me, tell me she don't wanna play
Tell her it's okay
No plans, what am I gonna do today?
I need to get away
Call me out to Santa Fe
I wanna get away
Friends can't tell the smile's fake
Wait too long to take
She's comin along, she tell me she don't love me though
That's okay, I'm gonna steal the show
Spotlight, late nights
Free-falling, not afraid of heights
Real sights, fist-fights
It's gonna be a long night
Oh God, I need to get away
But if I don't, it's okay
I'll go back to yesterday
Where the fields shield the pain
And the gold coats the water and steamboats divide the regenerating field of tears
Blood floats, saliva sinks
Roller skating through ice rinks
Ask my brain what he thinks
Brain runs, legs think
Arms call and connect the links
Head spins, eyes roll
Veins pop, leaking blood into my soul
Heart hurts, love flirts
Feet disperse
Head alerts
Death inserts
Soul calls time to reverse
Many girls in mini-skirts
Wind blows, hello, perverts
Rain's out, puddles squirt
Cold out, gloves and sweatshirts
Gun shots, coffee pots
Rain drops and bloodied cops
Where's my way to Santa Fe?
I was told I'd be gone by today
But now that time has come to pass, I take refuge in the past
I know this life was not meant to last
So I look to the sky, and gaze in splendour at the stars He's cast
And through time, Love, she retired
Because she was tired
A new man was hired
His soul was fueled by fire
And Hate was his name
With him came fame
But too, a long lasting rain
Oh Love, why did you leave?
My heart cries to receive your hand
And bury me deep in sand
And bury my dreams in sand
A light called me
Under the sea
I followed to see where it'd lead
To my surprise
There were no lies
Just angels where animals feed
Oh my heart, will we be together, will we?
Here I'll start to write a letter to you from me
When I got hurt, Pain liked me
She said, "Hold me tightly"
Oh brush Pain away lightly
And call Love to see if she'd like me
But she said only slightly
Why do I call to the sky?
If only it were to call too
I might die
But I'll be okay here with you
Love, she called my heart
But Love, she used it for art
Up on display for all to see
A dangling piece of troubles in me
My socks drip blood into the sink
But Love does not care what others do think
Call to me, my Love
Pure as a white dove
Look and scream to above
Pain lives deep inside Love
Hark! She cries but no one will hear
The silence alone fills her with fear
Hark! Her tears begin take their toll
And now her fears are in control
Hark! She screams in the night!
She flees, for her fears are in sight
Hark! Her fears are plotting against her
They're going to try to spread
They're spewing out of her head
They're plotting to see her dead
They're repeating everything she ever said
Her heart is pouring red
And all her tears have left her dry
But she's not ready to die
Hark! The grave calls to be fed
Hark! Her fears are all dead
Hark! Silence is now tamed
Hark! She's no longer ashamed
Feeling lost and all alone
I seek a permanent home
With cold uncertain hands
I welcome this new land
3 minutes pass like a second has
4 and 5 and on and on
Minutes multiply and hours spawn
A sun awaits its time to shine
A moon awaits its time to bloom
Arms and legs reach for more
Rotten dead flowers fill the core
An unceasing light seems to pass by
As guns fire and children cry
But nothing is forgotten or lost
Not without a soul's cost
Weakness resides where pain hides
Strength lies where pain dies
Cold and warm weather comes today
Cold not warm weather comes to stay
No fine line in the middle of a heart
No leaf and tree will ever be apart
No night goes by where children don't cry
No day goes by where people dont lie
Sold a flower to a flower today
Bought a heart with a heart's display...
I never feel love, I only feel sorrow
The worst part about today is that there is a tomorrow
They tell me I'm not feeling dead, well how do they know?
They only care about themselves, they don't care where "the rest" go
I'll take apart my heart and throw each part into a different sea
Take your time, but no one's going to find me
I've covered my tracks, so good luck
Tell me life doesn't ****
Tell me I'm gonna get through this
Tell me what you think love is
Tell me you love me, tell me you care
Tell me you can see me, and you'll always be there
Write all of this down
So forgotten answers don't drown
And show each to me
To avoid my permanent sleep
Don't call me,
Don't waste my time,
Don't judge me,
Don't take what's mine
You've been holding onto me for as long as I can remember
And the only time you've ever let go was last September
But remember,
I'm not your shoulder to cry on,
I'm not the one for you to rely on
Don't touch my hand
Don't cry about me
Don't forget these words
Don't drown yourself in me
Your rope is running thin
I think it's time that you begin
To take life into your own hands
I really don't care about you anymore
You crushed my trust and left the remains at my door
I dont know what to believe because of you
You always lie, where's the truth?
Get out of my life, I'm done with you
Get out of my head, I don't care about you
Leave me alone, I'm tired of you
Leave me alone, I hate you
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
