Oh sweet girl don't you see
That Heaven awaits you upon leave
You've got nothing to worry
Nothing to be a little bit sorry
About but you still talk to me
Like what we have is something

You're the weight behind the breeze
And when it shines, you are the sun beams
You're smile can change the mood
Of a room full of crude fools
And I am just one

When my eyes first rested
On you I was sure  I was being tested
By the forces that surround me
By all the powers that will eventually be
But then you opened your mouth
And you told me all about how
You've been (and asked me the same)
I like this girl+Been listening to too much Interpol=this

She told me
To come over
And on her
Never saw her
Like that before
Changed before my
Eyes sinking high
Looking for the sky
All I saw
Was darkness fading
In and out
As I went
Forth and back
Near had a
******* heart attack
When the door
Opened a little more
But it was
Only her dog

With my ear to the ground
It's time to soak in the sound
Of your voice from the top of that hill
You've never sounded more shrill
But things are constantly shifting
And nothing ever stays the same for long

So just hear me out now
Soak in my sounds
Try to block out the rest
You're being put to the test
Never felt so blessed
John Mar 2014
I had a dream about you
On a night that I thought would never end
I walked over to talk to you
Don't take it the wrong way if I just wanna be friends
After all that's happened over the years
I can't take anymore tears

I know you like to do your own thing
And I need my independence
It just never seems we are ready at the same time
Never heard of interdependence
The classic way of doing things
Was never for me and clearly isn't for you
So lets just be true and cool
But were both fools

Duo
Two

Times again
Again and again
Spinning three sixty
Three sixty and drop

Two

People holding
Hands in the rain
Drops drip and drop
Again on clenched fingers

Two

Cars rolling
Through red
Lights and bam
Crash and burn

Two

Funerals too
Black and bare to
Bear so you crawl up
In a ball and **** your thumb

Two

More times
Before I'm done and
Sit down for
Peace & quiet
John Feb 2014
Throw out the abstract
What's the use in that act?
Go to the lake, sit on rocks
Saw you at the cinema, what a shock
Never, ever come around again
Much rather have my own friends

Sit on, sit on these black rocks with me
Tripping, stumbling over my own feet - but
When we're together we got that twenty-twenty
20/20 - you're so funny when you try to talk the walk

Crafting something out of thin mist
At the start never can tell what it is
So don't ask, don't you say a word now
Break my concentration, throw it up in the air now
Just follow my feet, get on my boat with me
We'll float the still waters below white clouds

Entitlement
I
The side effect
Me
Down fall
My
Of us all

I
Can never tell
My
Personal hell
Me
And you in this room
I
Think it might as well be our tomb

I'm
Stuck in this cycle
My
Heart beats out of my chest
Me
And my and I never know what's best
I
Can't tell you the truth
My
Mind doesn't know the difference
