I've never been unable to catch my breath,
But your nails scratch over my back,
And I forget that the thing keeping me alive
Is the breath in my lungs,
Not your hands on my skin.

Love is Human

Love is human
Love is pride
Love is perfectly blind
Love is giving up your smile
Love is giving to others your time
Prayers are hopeful kisses to the sky
Slow and painful they choose a lullaby
Half a loaf for my family
Half for me
Love is human
Love is pride
Love is trying to be blind
Love is painful
Love hurts
Love is mostly taking what others deserve
Don't you know Love is cold-blooded?
Love has a name
He was named after you
Love is a curtain over us
Love is certain when you give it up
Love is tricky
Love is a bluff
Love is made of unbreakable stuff
(Unbreakable stuff)
(Unbreakable stuff)
(Unbreakable stuff)....

We are all searching for love.
Funny thing is that
there's no need for a search.
Love lives within us.
Love just needs to be awakened.
When someone walks into your life,
They stop by and give it meaning.

Little boats bob
Big boats glide
There's life in the mud
An ancient church
And a pub on the other side

Wild flowers bloom in the sun
Protected by the churchyard wall
Inside rows of box pews facing East
Well maintained at least

Oddly laying at the back
A sarcophagus carved in stone
No doubt a gardener
Would value as a planter

No one comes these days she says
Pouring water in the font
Flowers ready
Only people such as us

Satisfied we sacrifice a coin
Pop it in the slot
Walk back past the tower round
The congregation underground
Through the lilting seabird song to find
Ham egg and chips and a drink
Just to wet the lips
It's the Summer time

If one star went missing,
Would anyone notice?
After all,
There are billions of stars
What's just one?

If I went missing,
Would anyone notice?
After all,
There are billions of humans
What's just one?
Feeling very insignificant....

When I walk outside, I see all these happy couples around me.
Young, old, same ***, it doesn't matter, they're happy couples.
Just that sight drills me even deeper into the ground.
All I think is: What do I do wrong? Is it because I'm ugly? Is it because I'm lame, weird, stupid, boring, uninteresting?
I just want someone to love and who loves me for who I am.
I wanna walk outside, being one of those happy couples...

Screaming my feelings,
Left and right.
Doing time,
Throughout the night.
