Go on, take everything, you want to
so do it, take the money from the drawer,
the pearls from the little red box,
the watches - useless with immeasurable time,
cigars from Cuba, take those too,
Picasso rares, Da Vinci secrets,
take them all, go on.

Take the whole world into your palm
with your last inch of weakness,
just squeeze, bare your white knuckles
drain us of the materialistic monsters
and with your weakness bring us back to us,
bring us back to this earth, with nothing but a clean heart.
I don't know.

In 15 years time,
I'll walk the streets of the place we promised to escape to
and I'll look up at the stars wondering if you see them now like i do,
I'll stumble over cobble stone roads, in the last stages of our memories,
I'll bump into foreign strangers, I'll be in a daze,
I'll smile politely as an apology and they'll do the same,
Time will have almost done its job of healing and erasing,
but in 15 years time, when I turn a street corner,
I'll see your face, ask if we know each other
and you'll reply with, "We promised to meet here,
just 15 years ago, dear."

In 15 years time, I'll fall hopelessly in love with you all over again.

We.
We only sing the sad songs
and become too tongue tied to speak
our names so the thoughts fall from greater heights
as we fly too close to the sun,
absolutely in love,
with our feet firmly on the ground.

A town like this, with two of us stuck,
has nothing to offer in the ways of you and i,
I swear we'll be leaving soon
and the candles inside us will reignite
and shine
we'll be the brightest one day,
we'll be the brightest you'll see.

Take every memory,
and lock it under stolen breaths
so they won't know, so they won't know a thing
about the deaths
of our souls,
together we won't hurt anymore
but the memories must be forgotten
before they see and know
that there is nothing they can do
nothing they can do to save us.

We will love until forever
or until or heads stop spinning,
our heads are like the earth
they spin for eternity,
we will be infinite
though, we are already dead
in each others arms.

Words that tumble inside my mouth
Stab my tongue like daggers;
I bleed so much pain.
And I really do
I really want to scream these words
From the top of my lungs
But they burst.
This is tragic, this love.
Happier than blue birds that sing
But it hurts too much to even move a limb.
Crippling love, oh woe.
Crippling love, you will save me.
Because as much as it hurts,
You'll still be my rehab, dear,
A love infested detox
Ridding my body of the demons,
The demons that cut me from the inside.
Say it. Say it. Say it.
I can't!
Two words too powerful
They inject a paralysis poison in my veins.
Say it. Say it.
I would love to, but,
I can't breathe again.
I swear,
I swear I'll learn to say it one day,
With my last gasping breath.
I don't know,

It rains underneath the umbrella now, what have you done? What spells have you spun? No more, dear, I cannot take anymore. Eternal darkness traded for pain. I want the beauty of light again. And with my hand stitched to yours, I led you to the train, and on those tracks we died, under our umbrella of blood red rain.
It's not really a nursery rhyme, it just seemed like one to me.

You shake like a ******* crack addict coming down,
Yet, you've never smoked it in your life,
I don't mean to be obnoxious,
But, jesus christ!
Are you alright?
"Get out of here."
Pardon? I'm here to help you.
"They want me, and with you here,
You're in their way,
Go."
Who is they, lady?
Who are they?!
"No! Please! GOD NO!
No. No. No.
Ple-"
cough splutter urrrrrk
Speechless, I watched you choke
Twist and break your bones,
I've never, seen something so violent,
I watched you give in and die
To the voices inside your head,
And it was all their doing,
Whoever the **** they are...

Spoilt, relaxation,
bubbles, baths bombs,
Those sweet smelling purple ones,
and the silence,
Ah the silence, but suddenly,
You're flooded,
Flooded by all the thoughts
you came in here to escape,
the small popping noise of bubbles
blocking your ear,
isn't enough to block out thoughts
instead they drown you
push you under
and hold you there,
you drown you,
are you suffering or are you coming to
your senses?
Under a spell of your own torment,
you can't stay like this
you've never been so violent,
Calm down and take me hand,
We'll make it, I swear.
I'm too tired to make sense. enjoy.
