it’s better if things are left unsaid
it’s better if things are out spoken
both could be right
both could cause pain
oh, heart or brain
which one is better
which one do i follow

you’re always buzzing like a bee
that’s why you do not see
the care done by me

no, you tied me down
as I grow, you locked me out
can you give back my crown?
and just shut your mouth?

you’re the fool in the sea
the fool who consumed the honey
the fool who is so greedy
now please open your eyes, bee

I discovered the untold
only because you let me
I don't know how
I don't know why

I wanted to believe
but I think I was deceived
I wanted to stay sane
but you've made me insane

I've seen you at the beach
happily holding your cigar
with a girl who's like a witch
and then head out for the car

how could you do that?
after you've said those words
you even brought her to the club
while on the shore, you left me drunk

from her eye she pulled a wool
she is not blind, only a fool
she let her fears ruined her life
and finally taken over with a knife

she got stabbed a million times
and no one knows all these crimes

I'm lost
I'm lost
I'm lost.

I'm lost without your loving.
And I'm completely out of words.
And I'm completely out of rhyming.

I need you once again
To bring back that special something.
I need to feel your touch again
Just to bring me back from nothing.

We were always tripping on ways to make it out.
Long winding roads to backwards homes,
we never took too long.
I had a way with words
but not with speaking them too clearly-
I could only write them too be understood.
I was a little too passive aggressive and not enough passive voice-
Built upon analogies, not using enough antonyms.
Too much consonance and not enough consistency.
Always too dynamic for this static world.
We drove each other crazy.
Took words and turned them into roads always intersecting.
We never thought to stop and look at the scenery.
I never thought to ask where we were going.
You told me buckle up and I always asked you why-
The answer never left your lips.
You just gave a smile that mimicked the skyline and I let you take me there.
To the back alley of your mind and watched you race past the speed limit.
You told me to put on my seatbelt.
But you never wore yours-

You drove me to edge of insanity and left me there alone.
You drove away and watched as I tried to run after you.
But you kept driving-
and I'm still running after you.
Tracing my footprints on the pavement
Trying to match the tire tracks
I keep running back.
Even though I know you're long gone.
Insanity is a destination
I didn't want to reach
but somehow I arrived here anyway.
Somehow you drove me to it.
Samantha Nov 2015
you're not alone
i'm here
open your eyes
i'm just here
standing right behind you*
