i found
two old leather journals while cleaning out my old pick-up truck
yesterday

i can't wait
to read the parchment and listen to all
of the things that my heart had once to say

my heart,
it always
listens then
speaks

i swear
at times,
like tears,

i see those
old leather
journals leak

i'd love to
dust them off
down by the
old river
today

sink into
my captain's chair
and allow
my heart
some time
to play
Everyday that dawns,
you slip away a little more.
The distant stare,
the apathetic eyes.
Your love is as dead
as the roses in
the trash.
Your heart is an
abyss that I'm
lost in forever.
Belladonna drew me in.
The poison kept me there.
i was in the garden i heard bluebell ring
standing there alone a lonely little thing.

ringing out his tune so gentle and so sweet
such  a pretty tune it made me tap my feet.

a lovely melody like a symphony
standing in my garden he played his song for me.
there was a teddy bear the children loved him so
everywhere the children went teddy he would go
he loved in the park he would play all day
playing with the children made his life so gay.

he loved it in the park playing on the swings
roundabouts and slides and lots of other things
building little castles for everyone to see
he was very clever a clever bear was he

he was always happy children loved him so
to the little teddy they gave his heart aglow
then when he got tired he had a sleep and then
back to all the children so he could play again

Some says don't you dare
Some says u can't
Some says that's just all your limits
Some says do what says your heart
I said them all
I would dare,
I can do what I wanna do,
I know my limits,
I'll let my heart to go with the flow,
I wanna be free
I'm a sunflower
Don't burn me ,please let me glow.

Your love is a music box,
a melody that surrounds me;
it intoxicated me.

Love me now,
so that I can feel safe

Love me now,
so I feel complete

Love me now,
so all worries bid goodbye

Love me now,
so I won't be wanting things;

Things I can't have

Love me now,
so I won't be paranoid

Love me now,
so I can escape this everlasting winter snow

Love me now,
so I can be in your arms

Love me now,
so I won't feel like an empty vessel

Love me,
like those people with happy endings

Love me,
so I can feel warm

Love me now,
so I can breathe

Love me now,
so I can see

So I can live...
Yet I can't force you, not because I know that it is wrong
I'm just too tired now.
this is pretty much a fail or something. But, the music I am listening to right now makes it seem so perfect, a lullaby.
The title of this is the title of the song in the game
Everything makes sense. I love my life.
I'm a genius and perfect parent and a
motivational speaker and **** star.
I split atoms and human nature.
I paint you beautiful and real as
impossible as that might seem.
i was just your clown you made a fool of me
first i was your lover now just history
i was just your puppet you just pulled the string
tore my heart in two took my everything

joker in the pack that you could throw away
just a game to you   someone you could play
you just spun me round like a roulette wheel
never even cared about the way i feel

to you i meant nothing.  made it plain to see
all you really wanted was make a fool of me
your puppet on string that you could control
that you could destroy body heart and soul

joker in the pack that you could throw away
just a game to you   someone you could play
you just spun me round a roulette wheel
never even cared about the way i feel
