if i don't use big words
does it hide my simple message
like the fog over the river
you're my city in the valley
you fit like a size too large
and make me feel small
but I'm always warm

you remind me of death
every time you talk
you're always taking my breath
Jonathan Keeley Jul 2015
while we’re inside, you’re in the clouds
and you can't see past the tree line
even when the sea parts in your eyes
and you can pass
all you see is red and you fold
and fold and fold and fold
till you've made something to consume you whole
you never wanna eat though so your bowls always full
weren't you supposed to be something more in this world
wasn't i supposed to stand out not burn out
maybe you can still see me as you drift into sleep
cause in my dreams i just see me falling in the deep

you can't find me in a summer dream
darling
i'm a 3 a.m. cold sweat scream
darling
you won't remember me like a soft breeze
darling
i'm a force that'll bring you to your knees
darling
no ragrets

i'm just as you painted me
lazy strokes behind ****** poetry
finish and place me beneath the bed
now i've left your head

walking down the street it's getting dark
wishing i hadn't forgot where i parked
i've never really been to to your neighborhood anyway

you're still sitting on your roof
smokin' a cigarette
already forgotten that i'd left
I never really was your hero anyway

and never have you ever really needed savin'
i just wanted to be someone you could hide in
you always thought there was something beautiful bout being alone
so i'll never know

walking to my door, get a buzz on my phone
you say never have you ever felt so alone
and he never really felt as good as you anyway
come save the day

but she never really ever needed savin'
and i just wanted to be someone she could hide in
she always thought there was something beautiful bout being alone
so she'll never know

agape
i give you my hands
do what you please
just don't forget
i also have dreams
