The Songs Of You.

 

When I see your smile, the tears run down my face...

Don't go home...I can't believe I love this beautiful light...

And then the roses in the pastures change, filled with empty sighs and wine.

And then the children lost their way...

...I think I found her but I'll never let her in...

The only time I feel safe is when I'm in your arms...

I heard your footsteps this morning.

You know it's hard to get by when you don't sleep at all....

...When you fell, you fell hard...

I'm losing too much sleep these days...

...'Cause now I've got this stomach pain, the kind of pain that gets worse when the rain hits hard,

Like my fist, I try to explain to the wall this mess I'm in.

See I'm tired now and my mind won't quit...

And it feels like this is the last chance I have to say every word that I've been fighting

Well I've finally decided to hold my head up with pride and accept the way

Life takes you through these changes, 'cause when you've reached the stars, you've made it.

It's just there's something that I've been dying to let you know

And now that you're gone, I've been holding on, and I just can't let go...

I'm hoping that some time will show, you're the one, you're the one for me...

...Broken truth, whispering lies, and it hurts again.

What I fear and what I tried, the words I say and what I hide.

All the pain, I want it to end.  But I want it again.

And it finds me.  The fight inside is coursing through my veins.

And it's reaching, the fight inside is breaking me again...

The sun is set.  I close my eyes.  I pretend everything's alright.

Drowning in anger from all the lies.

I can't pretend everything's alright.

Please don't let me fall forever.

Can you tell me it's over now?...

It looked like the perfect day.  In photo's we were smiling.

But something was wrong with you, oh.

Inside you were suffering.  Your lungs were barely moving.

I wanted to comfort you...

So I said, "Shh..."

And you fixed all my cracked, broken parts

And replaced all my black poison blood...

...Take this heart, it's ticking like a cheap clock.

Oh, i need you to believe in me.

'Till there's nothing left of us.

Oh, I need you to believe in me.

Oh my God...

Take this heart, it's ticking like a time bomb.

And I'm not running anymore.

I'll stand to face it all.

I'll fight for every breath until there's nothing left of us...

Lots of beautiful lines here. It's not technically your work, but your organization of this makes it unique. I think my favorite is "Like my fist, I try to explain to the wall this mess in I'm."
