You push my nightmares away
Then change my dreams to reality.

You could be out with friends when you said you were watching TV
You could be drinking beer when you said you bought a bottled water
You could be out with girls when you said you were staying in just so you could talk to me
You could be doing so many other things and I wouldn't know a single thing
I wouldn't know if it were true or if it were a lie
I wouldn't know if your 'I love yous' meant something
I wouldn't know anything because everything is virtually said and done

Like the cigarette I smoked last night,
My body craves for you
Like the nicotine that entered my blood
My heart pumps blue

The feeling of high on my first light
As to how I am when we are together
But you are like the smoke emitting from the tip
I see you once, then disappear forever.

The lazy waves washed me ashore
An hour before I turn twenty four
The white sand on my feet,
I watched the sun as I fall asleep

A familiar tune I hear,
The songs of the wind in my ear
The party in the island is near
I am awakened by the dancing of the trees

Come birds
Come fishes
Come all creatures of the earth
Come and I'll tell you my wishes
Deliver them to the heavens,
The moon, the stars, and the sun
Fly! Swim! Run!
My party has just begun.

The coldness of my heart
Made avalanche of words
Covering you in cold, hard blocks
Spilling from my mouth,
You almost died inside

The weakness of my mind
Made a landslide of actions
Grounding you in wet, muddy soil
Rolling down from my thumbs
You left me for good that night.

I am no artist
But I paint with my tears
Eyelashes as brushes
Canvass on my bedsheets

Every morning when I remember
The history we've made together
I paint the memories
I recall the stories

My eyes burn
Forgive me
My tears flood
I am sorry
My mind shuts
Please tell me,
*"I'll take you back."
