WallsTo well you understandAll the words I sayBut will you be the one to chooseTo hear them every dayYou listen to my quiet voiceCaress and stroke my mindSeduce me with your tender handsKill me with your eyesSaturate me with your tearsBathe me in your soulCloak me in the lightThat is youWithin me, you I holdEvery night, beneath the moonTrace your eyelids with my lipsEnlighten with our fingersWhatever you areWhatever you wereMy desperation lingersIt sweeps me to the very edgeBlinded by hot stuborn tearsI find I'm reclaimed by your sanityI fear I can not love youI fear I can, but won'tI fear a life-long regretIf by my walls I don't! |
ThenYou had a crush on me.Then you were my tolerated acquaintanceThen you were my friendThen my best friendThen my boyfriendThen my exThen my abstact worldThen an unattainable dreamThen attained at lastAnd then you were goneNow I'm numb. |
TideThe candle flames danceThe radio playsThe lights are to brightThe nights are not daysI have only my smileI've cried all my tearsMy love is not love butMy fears are just fearsI watch a crimson candle burnThe wax runs down the sideOverwhelmed by the ocean of youYou swallow me in your tide! |
NightSometimes, as I close my eyes to sleepI'm there again and so is hein my dream I open my eyesand its only you and meMy clothes are intact and you hold me gentlyI'm cradled in your armsYour kissing and gently strokeing my hairThis time I'm safe, its only us thereThe air dosn't smell of alcohol and my arms aren't pinned to the floorI feel warm and calm and you don't hold my downThis time I don't feel disoriented and paralyzed with fearIf only it had been youI might be O.K.Then maybe I could sleep at night! |
