Sober as a Saint
Stained like a sinner
Your perception is faint
Makes my spine shiver
The gossip's hard to conceal
It's always "who's sleeping with who"
& "why am I still single"
When all I want
Is for you to be real
Need the beauty
Hate your sight
Want the scenery
Minus the light
Clinging to reality
That's the real fright
& I'm sick of pretending things are alright

Curves leave you contrite
Kiss of a lover
Personality missing stereotype
Heart of a mother
Makes my rate stutter
Obsessed with her mind
Possessed by her touch
Lost in her eyes
It's a little too much
******* what a rush
Connecting dots
Untangling thoughts
She's seeing faces
Avoiding places
I'd like to hold her hand
But I’m left wandering what’s in the other

House so quaint
Tongue so clever
Words to the poet
Limbs to the butcher
Life's moving fast
A car without breaks
Rolling hills
Blinding lights
One hit's all it takes
There isn't always a motive
Sometimes I just wanna live
Insanity on the brain
They haven't splattered yet
No one likes a stain
I have the bar set
Nothing to lose
The world to gain
Just try keeping up
& I'll try staying sane
