You are the weakness I don't need
You are the sickness I feel
You are my wants and needs
You are everything in between
You are some of what im missing
You are the suffering I feel
You are what makes me real
You love him and NOT me
So let me go
Or set him free

What love Ive given you is wasted
What longing I have for you is wasted
Wasted is what you get, when you wanna forget.
But what you forget is that lifes too short to love someone who doesnt love you back.
But what is funny to me. Is I should be telling myself that.

I wish to let her go
I want to let her go
I want to give up

If I am to give up, than I am every other man in her life.
I truly dont think I could give up on you.
I can lose myself trying to get you
I wont lose myself, unless I lose myself inside your heart and soul.

Why is it that if it rains and it's sunny the devil is beating his wife
Why is it that when I'm listening to music in the zone people accuse me of missing out on life?

Why is it that by 35 I have to settle down, have kids and a wife?
Why is it that I'm excited to be older than I was but not truly prepared for life?

Society is weird like that, but that's a solid inspiration to write
Because all of our ills won't be solved
Unless we ask the question why

I am at war with myself
Questioning everything
Questioning love, life and death
I just want to sink myself into you
Sink myself into your soul
Disappear into love.
I have longed for a love we have in store
I am ready
Ready, for you to let me in.
Ready to love you.
I know I am crazy at times
I KNOW I can be rough
Never fear me dear
I am your gentle lion king
I am yours to mend or to break
But for now I stand still
Stand still, while I am passed up again and again again.

The sea has always had a way of taking our breathe away, yet you are not the sea but when I am with you I am breathless by the sea. When we set off into the sea of love, rising every morning with the sunshine of love and laying down every night to the lust of the moon light. I love you sea and I want to sail with you for the rest of our days.

Please stop and know that this goes further back than you can
It feels like I was born harboring this fear of empty boxes
But I know it didn't surface until after the night I first kissed you
They say you know you're in love when you kiss her
And you find her words buried deep in the back of your mouth
I found them crawling towards the tip of my tongue for months after you left
I remember when 4 am was spent holding you as you fell asleep
But its nothing like that now and I'm convinced nothing ever will be
The halls are turned inside out and all I can hear are these lamenting hymns
Each one painting a picture of our horrendous end
A car crash and a noose hanging from a tree with eyes too young for this
Somehow you escaped this place and I'm stuck here crawling through piles of broken glass
I don't know what took you away from me
But if I could stand before it I know that I wouldn't be able to still my hands
Not in the same way that I could still the breath in your lungs
I can't tell you how much it hurt when you told me you couldn't kiss me without smiling
Because I believed you even when your outline became blurred
Before disappearing altogether
