to mend a broken heart
but tender is her beauty rare
as she fails you into her dark of nite

Here in Holden I forget all the memories acquired in sun
They all tumble and I could stop it if I wanted to stop
Pouring ***** in my head as a song before bed
Two-****** whiskey drinker caught in the present,
Displaced in time. And another and another til
she upgrades to doubles at no extra charge cause
she loves how my face 'round means she's safe at least
til I leave and she's sweet and pays me in drinks I
don't need as bad as money and a stable place.
Here in Holden B-Block I play games with my memories
I tumble hard and I could stop it if I wanted to stop
Too fun to open a door and fall through the floor
to the blackness of past as you stand from your stool
to play pool in the back as you can't keep your cool
so you retreat. Always retreat.
Here in Holden, underground, I **** on the memories
I made under sun now
bathed only in krypton light
scaring cats from the cans
behind the brush as I
rush to get it all out.
Spit it all.

that glare, i cannot forget,
it latched on to my memory.
the sway in your walk
had my stride in lock
(and my mind in awe)
the first time we met.
i keep playing this record
of a distant spring dream
to which you were the star
in my movie screen.
i see the moon
and try to hold on to a time
for it is now a small wrinkle
under both of our eyes.

... talking to me as if I'm awake,
but I'm asleep,
so theres no way you can repeat,
escaping your emotions as the night falls,
creeping in desperation,
breaking down the walls,
i would search the nation,
to see you fall in love,
i would search the nation,
to see you fall in love,
she turned it on,
and me as well,
will the teenage love making occur,
only the time will tell,
she turned it on,
and me as well,
will the teenage love making occur,
only the time will tell,
put me in your magical trance,
expressing my emotions,
like the ring of a bell,
come with me baby,
we could rule the night if we dance,
the dance floor couldn't handle us,
just tell me you will.....

My Dreams Are Filled With Lies,
Thats why i never close my eyes,
in disguise,
you made me feel like i was alive,
but instead you wanted me dead,
And for that you killed my heart,
filling it with doubt and dread,
its like a got a bullseye on my head,

who you kidding,
There is no happy ending,
only extincting,
in my mind trouble on it,
worrying is what im thinking,
you ignored me when i called you,
And you looked pass all your virtues,
of realities,
you could have been with me,
but that was on you.
