knowing what to do
is pretending
not to be confused

do people pretend?
or do they
escape

When someone won't need you,
the way you need them,
when they walk up to you,
and your body goes numb

When you look at them,
and you feel like a fool,
when they step on you,
and use you like a tool

When they drain every drop,
of life that you've got,
when they take up your brain,
with every thought,

Thats when you know,
it happened to you,
you got carried away,
and heartbroken too.

what is music without silence
what is happiness without sadness
what is life without death
what am I without you

an apple on a tree once grew,
some birds around it flew,
the branches holding on to another,
the tree gives life it's shade and cover.

the ocean wild and free,
the boats and ships that sail
imprisoning the sea,
putting wilderness in jail

the storm from sea
came to the tree
the apple fell
the branches yell
a sailor screams
another cries
only in dreams
the silence dies
