  Apr 2015 euphoria

i'm stuck in traffic
during a rain storm
in the middle of the night 
and i'm subtly reminded 
of when you stopped 
holding my hand 
as much as you used to
the cracks in the windshield
remind me of us
i cross another county line
and i think it's just like you
same place
new name
my veins are power lines
running through this ghost town
i'm so full of electricity 
but no one taps into it
i guess i'm useless
it's been a long time
since i've seen anything special
in the shapes of the clouds 
i don't think hurricanes
know that they destroy so much
maybe that's why you don't know
that i'm in this kind of pain
the cracks in my windshield 
are getting bigger
i think it's going to shatter soon 
could you imagine
the window shattering
and the glass coming at me
as i'm speeding
down this dark and rainy road
i don't have to imagine
i've already met you

The worst thing about love,
No.
The worst thing about real love,
Is that you give someone,
Your whole entire heart,
And no matter how bad you want,
You won't ask for anything in return.

I think I'm falling in love.
Falling hurts.
If I want to fall,
I'll just jump off a building.
Same results.
The fear,
the rush of adrenaline,
The euphoria,
the pain,
and then,
the nothing.

But what if this time,
What if it's different?
But it couldn't be,
Because you don't see me.
But I see you,
I see you entirely.
I see your imperfections,
And I see your doubts,
And I except your limitations.
I think you're beautiful.
But you can't see me.
The look I get,
When I stare into your eyes,
The small smile.
It's only me.
I'm alone,
At the verge of free fall.

Promises don't mean a thing to me,
Don't pollute the air with your empty wishes,
Make a move, show me that you'll fight for me,
Cause I'm questioning your alliances,
Show me you've got a heart,
Don't tell me that you love me.

Broken promises make broken hearts,
I know, I've been at both ends.
Don't lie to me, we know this never lasts.
Fate will cut my strings, and you'll be left alone.
I won't promise you a thing,
But I'm fighting back, I'm trying.

Frozen, but at least I'm not going in reverse,
Still I need to go somewhere, get out of this place.
I'm on fire, I'm burning bright,
Don't put me out, I'm scared of the dark.
Douse me in kerosene,
And let me burn.
