#silverscreen
Ups and Downs
Sideways, Inside-Out
But at the end of everyday i'm in your arms
You're just human
And I couldn't ask for more
Because my past is full of monsters
So human is a nice change
And I know it's not flashy or shiny
It's not perfect and pretty
But it's mine
And I wouldn't trade it for the world
I don't care if it is never like the movies
I've never been one for the silver screen
Because flowers fade and die but rocks are forever
And this is solid as rock
Tears and fits put you on edge
But you have no clue as you try to help me reach perfect
Just how far I've come with you
Because you shine so much brighter than the darkness in my heart
And I cant remember the last time I dreaded sunrise
Because the long nights of my past made morning a mere dream
But now I could lay in the darkness forever
As long as I have you by my side
I know you're not perfect
I'm not either
But at the end of the day you're perfect to me

When I close my eyes
I've an IMAX silver screen;
My projection room is stacked
With reels of a re-run dream.
I'm typecast as leading man,
You're the starlet, so it seems.
Today I'm screening tragedy,
That I played like comedy.
Two reels have played,
I'll need three,
To disuade me playing a parody.
I'll need to re-write,
And a location set;
I haven't run
The credits yet.
You protested the direction;
The hero fades out with rejection.
It's a cliff-hanger.
Will the girl return
A fallen damsel?
A chastised angel?
A spiteful devil?
I'm lying waiting
To dream the sequel.
