I miss the hard wooden floor beneath my
  bare feet
I miss the flying and fleeting moments of
  improved steps
I miss the unknown becoming known
I miss the repetive count that revealed the
  unexpected
I miss the music and the rapid heart beats
I miss the sweat and the blood and the
  aches and the pains and the heartbreak
    and failures and triumphs and success
I miss the stage and the stage freight
I miss the wings and the spot light
I miss the pitch black silence
I miss the roar of the crowd
I miss the life and the love and the
  feet that use to be mine
When I was part of the dance
Fly
Take the steps and learn how to dance
Break open the bars and make an escape
Find a pair of broken branches
And  a handful of feathers
And some old kite string
And make yourself new wings
Fly out of the sky
Fly free from this world
Fly off to new dreams
Fly
Fly
Fly
And its another night that I don't want to
  go home
I just want to sit on the moon and cry for
  awhile...
Its not the skin beneath your clothes
But the vibrance of your soul
That makes your heart so beautiful
Starbuck napkins and depressing one liners and my hands are shaking and my nerves are on edge and it feels like Thursday is never going to get here and I can't sleep until I find myself oversleeping and it's two hours past the time I had somewhere to be and another day has slipped past before I could take a breath and find any kind of calm and it's  a day closer to Thursday but Thursday still feels like it's never going to get here and my coffee has gone cold and my hands are busy shaking out depressing one liners on a pile of Starbucks napkins...
I know it's hard to belive because I can't really belive it myself and I know I've been in love before but it's never been quite like this and it must be strange because we've never kissed but it feels as if I know the sting of your kiss and it feels like a dream that's already come true but in reality I never was brave enough to admit that I love you and I know how ridiculous and illogical that must sound but I can't deny it was at first sight and I can still see you walking past and it feels as if I turned around you would still be there and it seems cliche to say and even more foolish to belive... Love and first sight?
Love at first sight...
Love at first sight!
That's what happened to me
For a brief moment all my troubles disappeared
And I fell in love as if you were here
But it was just a picture that stole my heart
To be a cat in your lap
To have your gentle hand
  brush against my head
To spend my days under
  your watchful gaze
To live nine lives on earth
  as if in heaven and purr
    endlessly
Is it love...
The longing and loneliness
The misery and emptiness
The heartache and sickness
Is it love...
The wanting and needing
The stealing and thieving
The touching and greiving
Is it love..
Or is it all just
Delusion and dreaming
Are you a dream come true
Or a noose around my neck


Im going to go dancing with a revolver in my mouth and razors strapped to my wrists and if I'm lucky I won't be waking up in the morning
