I gave you my laughs I gave you my cries I gave you my days, my nights My moon, my clouds I showed you myself in the simplest act A second worth more than centuries Our silence, infinite Don't you know me?
Take the women and the children And move them to higher ground The fires spreading wide across the land
Don't believe the news Or a single word they tell you Stay with me because I swear I have a plan
Do you see me Do you see me worried Don't you think I know That everything is wrong Do you see me Do you see me worried But I've still got time to write one last song
A fire just broke out In the parking lot and lobby Unlock your doors, get out while you can
There's people fighting Trying to throw each other in the fire People hit their knees And pray to the high command
Do you see me Do you see me worried Don't you think I know That everything is wrong Do you see me Do you see me worried But I've still got time to write one last song
Do you see me Do you see me worried Don't you think I know That everything is wrong Do you see me Do you see me worried But I've still got time to write one last song
Saw it all, One last time... Slowly, pressed "DELETE" Swore to myself, This mistake shall not repeat.
But I know, you know I was bluffing.
It happened again. I saw it all one more time, One last time. But this time, my hands don't tremble I press not slowly, but swiftly "DELETE" And I know, for sure, It won't repeat.
I’m here looking down on it all wrapped in a blanket a book lies next to me pages flipping themselves in the cool summer breeze inside are the sounds of life outside are the sounds of the questioning the air is filled with random notes fluttering around me like guardian angels I know why they’re here
darkness sat down next to me to keep me company we look at the flickering lights in the distance he tells me you’d do fine down there if you wanted to be a light surrounded by light but then he shifts his gaze the moonlight dancing through his being but you’d do great up there be a light where no one has dared to be and with that he left
They told me to aspire, but I found this idea a little satire.
Aspire what? was my question, how do I find my boat in this huge ocean?
The sky is open for you, is what they said. But my answer is due, I repeated instead.
I came back in the bus, thinking about this fuss.
Am I a useless bin? why is everyone looking at me with that grin? Relax! you are not the only one, but why are they all making my fun?
My emotions danced for a mile, until the conductor told me, "Your destination will come in while." I answered back with a smile, finally I got an answer to this messed up pile.
Last night, I dreamt, of your lips, pressed gently, against my, pale neck. My heart, skips, sputters, to a pause. I ponder, if you too, dream of sin. The fog carries, a lust, I have only, been forbid.
