tears

 

“tears’
   
Years
It’s been years
How can this dried old heart
Still shed tears
   
I know it’s not right
I know it’s wrong
But my world still stops 
When I hear that song
    
Years
It’s been years
How can this dried old heart
Still shed tears

If I Told You

 

“If I Told You”
    
If I told you my heart was shattered,
Would that be enough?
Would that make me weak,
Or tough?
  
If I said my eyes had cried,
Every ounce of tears?
Would that make me stronger,
Or weaker of my fears?
  
If I said I couldn't afford to hurt,
That much again.
If I lacked the strength to let,
It begin?
   
Would that make me wrong,
If I told you?
I just lack the strength,
To let it to be true.

Let Me Out

 

"Let Me Out"
~ ~ ~
Let me out
Let me out
So tired of the sound
Memories and pain
Keep pulling me down
~
As if the memories had life
And want to survive
These parasites living in me
Eating me alive
~
The pain so relentless
And it will be obeyed
Will not let my heart forget
Just how deeply
It was betrayed
~
Let me out
Let me out
So tired of the sound
Memories and pain
Keep pulling me down

Alone

 

“Alone”
       
Once I walked inside hope,
You know inside everyone’s dream.
Where love is quenched,
And nobody screams.
  
But a bit later I had to wake up,
Realizing the tricks and the lies.
Alone in the showers,
No one to wipe the tears I cried.
  
Alone.
No evidence of the friendship or love I’d shown.
A house of many friends and love left me.
Alone.
  
I learned that every heart can lie,
That all love can become pain.
And no matter your hope,
It can drive you insane.

Just a Pile of Sticks and String




"Just a Pile of Sticks and String" 
~ ~ ~ 
I never lied 
Never did I cheat 
I was there beside you 
Facing any defeat 
I held on 
You knew that I cared 
You knew that I loved 
I always was there 
Offered my support 
In every way that I could 
I stood beside my partner 
Because I knew that I should 
Taking on your burdens 
As if they were mine 
Because I knew together 
We would be fine 
I never once questioned 
Or demanded explanation 
For any our troubling 
Situations 
But in the end 
I was just your fool 
The one there when you needed 
All you had to do was pull 
Well your marionette is lifeless 
Just a pile of sticks and string 
That shivers now and then from the images 
The nightmares bring

Breath


 
 
“Breath”
   
I’d rather slip,
Into what I don’t believe,
Than suckle breath,
Of a life I can’t conceive.
   
Breathe in the moments,
Like they can’t be undone.
Breathe in the moments,
Unlived by anyone.
    
But we are the chosen,
Yes, we are the brave.
And all is always lost,
Regardless how we behave.

The Sheer Force of an Infinite Belief



"The Sheer Force of an Infinite Belief"

While there is truth in the startling discovery, in the awakening realization and unyielding belief that two is better than one.

There is truth that this belief carries with it an immeasurable joy that may best be described as blinding in its beauty.

Yet, within this belief, even in its infinite power, even in its limitless light, it is but a speck in the vast expanse of a stark reality.

In spite of the apparent unending power of an endless truth, or the sheer force of an infinite belief, that two is better than one.
  
There is nothing that compares to the utterly endless uncompromising void that is fact.
     
There never were two.

having said that, I still love this song...
