"Love" is just a fleeting thing...

In two minds from time to time,
How do you forget so many things?
Trying to escape this needing feeling
I'm just built to want you close.
But who are "you", oh loving, feeling,
Who are "you" when the end is near?
Who am I to heed this yearning,
Who am I to feed this fear?
In the winter you said you loved me,
But I think you spoke too soon
That's ok, I understand,
I was breathless too.

Dear Circles

Oh where are we now dear circles?
Just trying to find my feet.
I feel like I'm nothing
Without you.
So are there no happy mediums?
Just constant fucking extremes?
Let's just start where we left off
And continue til you're sick of me.

Oh where are we now dear circles?
Thought I was special for a while
But suddenly I grew older
And suddenly I stopped trying.
All I do now is look for reasons
Don't even know what that means
Let's just start where we left off
And continue til you're sick of me.

Enjoy Falling

Are we really the same?
I saw your name, in big letters
Painted on the sky
And then I slept for forty days
Til nothing mattered anymore.
Oh, you
I know you too well
That could be our downfall.

I enjoyed falling though.

Everything Ends Here

Cold weeks in October
Freeze me over
And everything ends here.
But I don't mind
It's not hard to find
Warm lovers in the cold.
So I'll walk away
From your embrace
Your eyes, your face -
Oh, everything ends here.

Out of Ideas

I sat and wrote alone.
And threw away each page I inked
With long frustrated sighs
And nothing else to think about;
Still not sure what I'm trying to achieve
A song for you, a lie for me
A painted piece of tainted lines
In time we'll all be fine.

I sat and sang alone.
And gave up before the finishing line
Defeated by the undefined
A rhyme is just a rhyme;
Still not sure who I'm supposed to believe,
The never loved or the never free,
Is it enough to just be me?
I won't make a living like that.

And when it's time for a chorus
I'll run out of ideas. Again.

And then I'll remember again...

Don't Tell Anyone

You might say you know the way inside me
But I don't have the words to take you there
Yesterday I found a caterpillar on my shoulder.
It's been ten years.

Passing places, way by way
I saw the place you jumped and disappeared.
I don't think we'll ever know the things you saw inside that day.

Oh and I might pray
But don't tell anyone.

A Passing Thought

so now i'm here and questions arise
i had strange dreams last night
that phonecall this morning was stranger
do i really want to be dragged back in?
kicking and screaming?

i think i know what i have to do.

i'm just afraid i'll be wrong again.

Pink Street Light

I wasn't living in a real moment
When the sky decided to pick me up
And throw me in the back
Behind the pink street light
My sister painted when she was drunk.
And I was shocked because she was still a child in my head.
We're all still children in our heads
Sometimes.
So please wind me up,
And maybe I'll get somewhere
Before this night is out
Before this year is out
Before my life is out
It goes that fast
Sometimes.
