Mar 2014
Thoughts provide internal expression in my external repression
Bring me your eyes, loved surprise, stay until sunrise, more honesty in lies
Violet past in the violent pass glances at me through the sky's glass
And it's hard to last, but worth it to show that I know, yes I know ever so sure
That you are mine, and I am yours
By the shore of the ocean of the golden crown of the sun
Do you remember when we were fun? Do you remember being new?
I was enthralled by myself, but more enthralled by you.
Now, in love so strong that God couldn't scoff if I were to slice wrist after wrist
If I had to stop you from all that is wrong in the suffocating mist
Of our parents, our friends, their lies, their ends
Influencing us because we're alone by ourselves
On a burning boat floating on a ocean containing whispers in seashells
And I remember you, the way I pushed my fingers through
Around and past your skin
Touching what was ours, but cascaded by the sin
Our parents decide to keep, and we try so hard to weep but we feel nothing more
The sugar in the sands of the seashore run so deep, and we lay and lose sleep
Missing out on dreams of us and money signs, on clothes and smiles, wherever
So I can love you forever
I get so scared in this place, so out of place, so many people that aren't people
Pretending to be doctors, lovers, gods, and human beings
Soft and free, could it be that we are drifting near any other home at all?
Shoes, pants, shirts, and skirts shaming our sweet shore. Is there any more?
Scandalizing scents scold sure souls soundly supplementing suffering sons
Profoundly, I look at you and search within myself to someone else
Because the words I say are stronger; lets stay out on the coast longer
Nothing could be wronger than living in a home on fire
So let me hold you close until I grow tired
On a body of moving life, is my heart ready for death?
I don't want to think of you dying at all
But someday you will die, and what have I
Some lonely nights and dreams we used to share
Until I watched that man drive into your passenger seat
And your head hit the dashboard
Your feet kicked underneath
As blood left your nose, I tried to be so close
To keep you from the hurt
To keep you close and safe
But the bone disagrees, and in forty five degrees
I watch your fingers grab at your face
Let me get closer as my heart will race
If I lose you I will fall, into a loveless call
That keeps me awake at night, and I'll scream into nothing
Asking for everything, now and please
Because my heart with you is at ease
Without you I would be left breathing through a tube
Eyes glazed with an 11:14 truth,
because I did remember you
In 2078, my heart will stay with you and break
As the nurse breaths my words, everything at stake
Her hand will clutch my shoulder, and my chest will crash into itself
Every book falling off the bookshelf at night
My rusted hands from left to right
That used to hold your hands up the street
So proud of you, I bragged to everyone we'd meet
I love her so, and if you don't know, with her everywhere I go
Love into another dimension or time, she is my heart, my reason, my rhyme
And I'll remember her, as the hurt digs ever so deep
Losing sleep until the time is gone, and I am done
Don't tell me it's okay
Don't tell me it's fine
I drag
the heart
that's torn apart
into a straight line
Bring me your eyes, loved surprise, stay until sunrise, more honesty in lies
Violet past in the violent pass glances at me through the sky's glass
And it's hard to last, but worth it to show that I know, yes I know ever so sure
That you are mine, and I am yours
By the shore of the ocean of the golden crown of the sun
