i think i crave someone to love me
because i can’t seem to do it myself

if you and i don't have tomorrow,
we have today
we will always have today...

Life used to flow freely,
it used to be full to the brim.
It slept peacefully flowing through my veins.

But now it is awake,
and a fuming fire is born between us.
By the glance of an eye,
and the touch of lips.

Hurting people hurt people
with words and actions they don’t mean.
Lashing out in fear and anger~
Afraid the truth will soon be seen.

They hide behind their cutting words
and hope no one will see~
The heart inside that’s ever bleeding
from pain they fear will always be.

The guitar string breaks
And so does the melody
Leaving the room
In an uncomfortable silence

Each night I wake
And think of you
While you lay
Dreaming of her
