Fool

Unless you mean it
Don't touch my skin
Unless you mean it
Don't draw me in

Don't reach your hand out
to push me down
Ignore me as I shout
And watch me drown

Stare as my fire burns
Laughing at the stars
For what my heart yearns
Escapes me from afar

Unless you love me
Don't touch my skin
Unless you mean it
Don't draw me in

Choking on dust
As I breath in the night
Do what you must
Push me in the light

I've felt the darkness
Creeping down my spine
Unable to express
How brightly you shine

But unless you want me
Don't touch my skin
Unless you mean it
I can't let you in

Flames to Embers

The first time that I saw you
I knew that it would hurt
I wanted you to love me
I knew you'd never give in
I watched and waited for ages
You kept your heart closed and caged

Every time I see your face
I feel the pain
The fire inside my chest
Engulfs me in flames

There's secrets that I've kept
So deep you'd never find me
You're so sure of yourself
I could never keep up
I'm a mess I'm a flame that's turned to dust
The truth is something I could never trust

Every time I see your face
I feel the pain
The fire inside my chest
Engulfs me in flames

I take a sip of my beer
While my dreams fade in liquor
I wanna taste the salt on your skin
Hold you close like my sins
Never will you back down
But I will drink up and drown

Remember all the times I've seen your face
While I embrace this pain
Feed the fire inside my chest
As I'm engulfed by the flames

Graceless

You left me all alone
I only wish that I had known
That the last time I saw your face
Was the moment you would fall from grace

Nowhere to turn, to Jesus you cried
Begging God one last time for a guide
Never keeping me inside your mind
I never even got to say goodbye

Always had one last bit of hope
Taken away with a last hit of dope
Never again can you call to God
Nevermore will I hear your voice

A song for my mother.

Lying to Myself

The very last time I saw your eyes
You were begging me not to walk away
But I never did listen too well
And I never knew what to say

Wasted breath, forgotten time
I live in the dark I was never a bright light
I never knew how to love
And long ago I lost the will to fight

I lied to myself for so long
I forgot what's right and clung to what was wrong
Now here I am with my own heart
I knew it would end here from the start

I'll never tell you that I love you
It isn't something that I can do
I'll strum you a song in the dark
As I wish I hadn't fallen apart

Work in progress song. I still feel meh about it.

Phantom

you fooled me with your eyes
you snuck into my dreams
ensuring my demise
poisoning my mind

and now I can't look away
from eyes that won't see me
I'm left paralyzed
by a ghost who won't see my eyes

my thoughts are poison veins
your memory is my pain
you've never even seen me
though you haunt my every move

and now I can't look away
from eyes that won't see me
I'm left paralyzed
by a ghost who won't see my eyes

I'm left paralyzed
ensuring my demise
you snuck into my dreams
and fooled me with your eyes

The Color Grey

I've been reading all your stories
though I notice missing chapters
my name has not since crossed your lips
I have reached out, yet not heard your laughter

it would seem though, that you have laughed
and the missing chapters were the holes that needed filling
who'd have known that disappearing
would be the one thing that never left you with feeling

I watched from the shadows as an artist colored your pages
you changed from black and white to colors I have never met
cause you see, my best friend is this little bird called fate
and as I see me fade to grey, I feel nothing

but I still read your stories
I still think about those missing chapters
I forgot my name, no one's said it in a while
but I still listen for your laughter

in the back of my head
*in the back of my head

Spirit of Compassion

"You remind me of veil fire
an echo of love"
her raven hair soaked in his crimson tears
she looks up, emerald eyes shimmering like the fade
"why, why can you not love me as I do you?"

"for I am the boy who never was
I cannot give what I do not understand
don't worry you'll soon forget"
he kisses her once
"forget"
he was gone

she awoke, thinking herself dead
"this cannot be heaven, I taste blood in my mouth"

To explain, he is a spirit, while she is flesh. Based off of a character in Dragon Age.
