I cannot stop my mind
From thinking of you;
I cannot stop my heart
From beating for you;
And I just cannot stop myself
From loving you.
I know I have a high tolerance
for pain
but I never really thought
I enjoyed it
Yet maybe that is why
I get higher than most
just so my fall
from their graces
will hurt that much more.

Beauty oh beauty
Where have you been?
There's a beast in the tower
You must come look
Beauty oh beauty
Isn't it a ghastly thing
Fangs like a lion
Fur like a dog
Beauty oh beauty
Where are you going?
That thing dangerous
Stay away quick
Beauty oh beauty
What are you thinking?
I’m a beast, I’m a monster
You should stay away
Beast oh beast
Do my eyes deceive me?
You’re not a beast
You’re beauty lies within

Love most have died centuries ago
She died with Juliet and Romeo
Now her bones lay dust infested
Romeo's to the left
Juliet's to the right.
Wishing they discussed,
Try to figure out how it all turned sour.

If love is dead,
Who or what are we then?
Excavators, that's who we are
Digging furiously, who cares how far
The grave of the duo love birds must be near
Find it, find love at its undiluted sphere.

Enveloped in this fantasies box
Love becomes no more than a hoax
Love is what it is
A beautiful broken bike if you please
Its too dangerous to ride
Yet no choice but the ride
So if you must, put on your safety gear.

Love does not live inside TVs
Nor magazines
She has left the internet and movies
She now lives in the simplicity of you and I.

You may have looked too hard
Yet you still can't find.
This you must figure out
You are looking in the wrong sites.
