Jan 2012
such a secret, is one that kills
hidden from the scary outliers
those lies laid down piece by piece
like our hands that entangle perfectly.

i'll drown in your company
fill my love up to the rim
clench onto your promises
and believe once again.

devour the hours--tick tock, tick tock
greedily gobble your butterflies
eternity spent in your tired arms
it's dark, breathe fast, up and down

temptation sparks at a moment's notice
clean my conscious and let it out
tell the world, tell them all
that i have fallen for you.

an inner strife towards constant honesty
but the exception falls on you
they won't understand, they can't
they simply won't.

i'll beg for acceptance
plead for nothing less
because, for now, i'm happy again
i'm happy again...
