All She Heard

Watch the stars burn yellow,
Through the heavens they shine,
Just me and you with smiles that bellow,
Knowing you're mine.

Laying upon the grass,
Dew sparkles all around,
Your eyes gleam like glass,
As we have our backs to the ground.

We exchange laughter,
Under the stars so bright,
Talking about the morning after,
And how forever begins tonight.

We raise to our feet,
Eventually more than just a friend,
Together our lips meet,
Into the heavens we ascend.

We dance under the moon,
As our feet take control,
We begins to spoon,
As we fall back to ground patrol.

Peering into each others eyes we laugh,
We just feel so safe,
You are my other half,
Keeping faith.

She slept the night through,
After I spared three last words,
I love you,
Is all she heard.

Juliet

The moment came,
When everything was just right,
The thought of you saying my name,
It made my night.

You took the wheel,
Released the brakes as well,
Showed me how to feel,
And wanted to I could tell.

The glimmer in your eyes,
And the grin on your face,
It never lies,
For our night's embrace.

Trust me with all you are,
As you shine through,
Shining more than the brightest star,
Simply you.

But nothing was sweeter,
Then knowing you felt safe,
My heart pumped every second a liter,
For you had so much faith.

My baby I love,
She's my very own Juliet,
She took me above,
Giving me a night I'll never forget.

A True Night's Romantic

Don't sleep just yet,
I think we need tonight,
To watch the moon set,
And embrace the sunrise's light.

Prove to ourselves that light is there,
Even when shrouded in dark,
That together we can bear,
The black with our fire by spark.

Together we will do our own,
Holding hands watching the sun rise,
Together we are not alone,
As we stare into each others eyes.

Knowing that through the night we stay,
Hoping to see dawn break's light,
Smiling with our hands a sway,
Noticing that your eyes still shine more bright.

Then we fall asleep,
As you my arms embrace,
Together the day we reap,
My chest to your face.

When we awake,
From waves sweeping the Atlantic,
Smiles erupt to our faces like earthquakes,
For we lived the night romantic.

Return

I feel us coming back,
As desire begins to build,
How should I react,
To this crack being filled?

I want to run away,
Go right past it,
All we had to do was stay,
Instead we climbed into a casket.

Breathing in sequence,
We are running in place,
Our sorrow happens in frequence,
Of when we can't embrace.

So let's turn back in time,
To what we used to be,
When you were still mine,
When my love was free.

I am just glad to return,
To this place I belong,
For your arms I yearn,
Where I can finally be strong.

Prey Beware

Listen to our bellowing cries,
Crashing through the night,
A wolf pack made up of alibis,
Under the moons all concealing light.

Hear it in the howl,
The scent of the red soaked white,
We are on the prowl,
And you’re the prey tonight.

The smell of blood is pungent in the air,
Like a gas line sprung a leak;
We stop and stare,
Studying the weak.

Synchronized in paces,
We become bullets tearing through the wind;
The cold burns our faces,
As if we were skinned.

We are gaining ground,
At astonishing speed,
Yet we make not a sound,
To give you any heed.

We pounce on arrival,
Like a bolt of lightning,
It’s essential to survival,
To instill a lifeless frightening.

We don’t mess around,
As it is a matter of life or death;
You’re stomach bound,
Once we steal your breath.

Under this moon of crescent,
The rest of your crimson blood will be spilled,
Once living a life effervescent,
Is now left killed.

You have met your fate,
Before me and my pack,
You’re the entrée and the world is the plate,
As we finish our attack.

We feel no remorse,
Feeding ourselves is no crime,
Nothing personal of course,
For we all have to die sometime.

The smell of blood is the notice,
That we will soon be there;
The land will still bestow us,
So prey beware.

So Perfect

For the first time in a while,
A little happiness I feel,
Today I've actually worn a smile,
Thinking of your head on my shoulder for real.

Whether I actually deserve,
Is up to debate,
But I remain surprised how you preserve,
That being together is fate.

Maybe it is our vision,
Of the day we meet,
Or it is our decision,
That there is nothing more sweet.

Either way it instills hope,
In a better tomorrow,
Without you I could never cope,
With all this sorrow.

Because when I know you are there,
It makes everything feel alright,
No matter how horrible or how much despair,
I know that we will make it through the night.

But most of all,
It is the future that lies ahead,
Our kids playing in the leaves of fall,
You falling asleep in my arms in bed.

The day we say "I do",
The day you bless the world with a son,
Are the thoughts that remind me I love you,
And that for me you are the one.

It all sounds so perfect,
At least to me,
It makes life worth it,
I've come to see.

For Once I'm Sure.

Blah. It is always great to think of that. Someone else getting what I want. And I may not be crying yet. But thats cuz the rents are in the room. I want it so bad. And truthfully, I know she knows it hurts me a lot. But I still try to hide it. Eh, who knows why. Someones crying himself to sleep tonight. Maybe more. Who knows. No one would notice anyways. But I guess I like it that way. Best part is I when I dream I live the thought instead of cry about it. Such an improvement. That's life. It hates me. It's a hate-hate relationship. But whatever. I still do it. Do it for you. No matter how big of a mistake you think it is. I wont let go. Ever. I love you, and nothing will change that. Even if it leaves me depressed forever. Whatever the price.

Liar

Your hand I want to hold,
But for now I don't deserve this,
Though it makes my heart feel cold,
It makes me feel so nervous.

I feel like I've done you wrong,
Since he changed it all,
A blink and it is gone,
Through the crack we fall.

Look at what I've done,
I've ruined what we once cherished,
What happened to when we were one,
Before all freedom perished.

It used to be you and I,
And we could be together,
We always were able to try,
And dream of being forever.

Now restrained by chain and lock,
I try and hide from how I feel,
A wall built rock by rock,
For my pain to conceal.

I am such a liar,
For saying I want you two to be,
You may of poured the gasoline but I started the fire,
I never wanted for you to be with he.

Don't Wake Up

You fell asleep,
And now you are shackled in Hell,
Your true dream you can't keep,
You're afraid, and I can tell.

What happens when you awake,
To see that this Hell is true,
How long until you will forsake,
The sanity holding together you.

These nightmares are reality,
Just don't wake up,
You will become the fatality,
So don't wake up.

Unfortunate loss,
That of your will,
Out for the coin toss,
Tails shows and your blood spills.

The legs cave in,
As you collapse to the ground,
Drenched in your sin again,
With no one around.

These nightmares are reality,
Just don't wake up,
You will become the fatality,
So don't wake up.

There is no way back from here,
You're lost in the deep end,
Drowning in your fear,
For yourself you can't fend.

It feels so alone,
As at the sound of her voice it falls apart,
We all should of known,
I won't be easy to fix the broken pieces of my heart.

These nightmares are reality,
Just don't wake up,
You will become the fatality,
So don't wake up.

Don't wake up,
Or you will be dead,
Don't wake up,
Or you will never be wed.

The Haunting of Love

I'm falling apart,
Loneliness is settling in,
I can not hold together my heart,
For I feel like we can never be the same again.

My dreams aren't the same,
As the joy they once were,
Now you say his name,
And I lack my cure.

The cure that once kept me sane,
Is now held in his embrace,
Now I just can hold onto pain,
And no longer kiss the beauty of your face.

Now I dream of him and you,
Together making each other smile,
Doing things that I always wanted to,
If I weren't separated by so many mile.

My love for you haunts me,
Like ghost may haunt a foe,
The cost is the me you see,
How could I let you go?

I followed my mind,
Instead of my heart,
Left my hope behind,
And teared us apart.

But what's new,
I always commit treason,
Against myself for you,
Your happiness is the reason.

As long as your happy I will,
I will sacrifice mine,
My heart I will spill,
If it helps you cross the line.

I Was the One

I can't stand what I do,
Make you feel sad,
I do love you,
But what I do is bad.

I never wanted you to cry,
Or feel like you did my wrong,
No matter how I try,
I can't stay strong.

I make you regret,
Following your heart,
You'll never forget,
How I fall apart.

You take the blame,
For my own fault,
It is not the same,
As the end result.

I just miss the way,
We used to be,
The things we could say,
When it was just you and me.

We could do anything together,
Even if it never could be done,
We called it forever,
And I was the one.

For now I miss,
What has come and gone,
The lost press of your kiss,
I hope it's not lost for long.

But until then I will feel depressed,
For I must think there of,
How he gets your lips pressed,
And he gets to love.

Cause I know there are other guys,
That you can fall for,
While this life I despise,
I liive it to hope you'll realize you like me more.

Follow Me Home

I wander around,
In search of what's left of me,
If it was never lost can it be found,
Or will it just cease to be?

The one I love is found here,
But she is no longer alone,
Someone else is holding her dear,
As I should of known.

Now I just look into her eyes,
And tears form to our faces,
We break into cries,
For we no longer have the same embraces.

Now we don't know what to do,
In this land we comb,
I walk away but keep looking at you,
Will you follow me home?

Once over the hill where you can not see,
I collapse to my knees and cry my heart out,
Just hoping you followed to find me,
And take away my hearts drought.

Waiting for your return,
Into my long since empty arms which miss you,
That inside my is dimly burning,
This love I still hold true.

Soak the Land

There's nothing to do,
I got the worst of it,
I loved you,
But now I just need to quit.

The American dream,
Has become the American nightmare,
Falling apart at it's seams,
I'm dying, but do I even care?

Why should I be alive,
When I don't want to be,
I'm down to the fourth quarter drive,
But I quit for it's too much for me.

If I put it in your hands,
Will you save me the pain?
Will my blood soak the land,
As my tears did the same?

FML

I let myself fall asleep. Biggest mistake of my life. I'm shaking. I woke up. Crying. I'm scared to death. I'm dying. Truth is, I could only be strong for so long. And that was because you still needed me. Now I'm a wreck, but what else would you expect. I always am. I shouldn't be alive. I know. I wish I could move on. My American dream has become my American nightmare. I know this night won't end pretty. But will blood really be enough? I doubt it. -sighs-

Heart Broken

Maybe he wants to leave,
But his heart still beats the same,
Without a way for him to breath,
He hears your echoing name.

He has lost his way,
As his road is now gone,
Will he see the light of day,
Beyond his depression so wrong.

Imprisoned, on a sinking ship,
He drowns behind bars,
Looking for the lips,
That had him living in the stars.

If he could find a way back,
He would run there at top speed,
Through the door and the crack,
To you it would lead.

He deadly misses the past,
When he was less sad,
Memories when forever they would last,
The time they never had.

He's filled the ocean with his tears,
As he lives with the words unspoken,
It was the worst of his fears,
Leaving his heart broken.

Huzzah.

I want to let you be free,
I let you though I never was ready,
This is the way I guess it has to be,
With my heart so heavy.

Truth is I don't want you taken,
But I just have to let you,
It might leave my heart breakin',
But I have to stay true.

Because deep down I care,
More about your happiness then I,
And it is only fair,
To let you be with another guy.

Inside I'm dying,
And time for me cry,
I'm so bad at lying,
Now it is my time to go and die.

Denial

Maybe I'm just afraid,
That I will lose you this way,
I think to you I might fade,
I just wish you could stay.

I risk my love,
By letting you go,
Let you let someone else take you above,
And I know.

You will not feel the same,
I will no longer get your hand,
Like always I'll lose the game,
My blood will soak this land.

But what's the use,
Of holding onto you,
I'll lose my muse,
But what's new?

For you won't like me forever,
No one will,
I'll have you never,
A pain no pill can kill.

Lost it all,
Swatted away like flies,
This is my fall,
As tonight my hope dies.

But why must I preach,
Will I ever just quit?
To your heart I'm just a leech,
I'll admit.

I know I'm not enough,
To really make you smile,
You are the diamond I am the rough,
The only reason you won't let go is denial.....

Peace of Mind

Just another one in the crowd,
Fighting for my chance to break through,
Of my accomplishments I may be proud,
But will that be enough for you.

I am strong enough to stand on my own two feet,
Or at least I wish that I could say,
My strength is my own defeat,
Because I am not a part of that cliche.

I am not the one who can hold his own,
Rather just watch me fall,
Once again feel so alone,
As I just witness me losing it all.

Why must I let everything pass me by,
Such a curse in which I possess,
Sometimes I wonder why I even try,
Let me tell you I'm a mess.

Just let me bury it,
Just to see it happen again,
Excavate the grave for it,
In a losing game can I win?

I am not the one who can hold his own,
Rather just watch me fall,
Once again feel so alone,
As I just witness me losing it all.

We all feel this weak,
At sometime in our life,
Such a losing streak,
That we find ourselves staring down the knife.

Cause we can't do it alone,
Without a tourniquet to bind,
Through this pain we have grown,
And left us with some peace of mind.

This Great Fire

A haziness fills the air,
This picture is foggy to the eye,
You stand there and stare,
As smoke trickles into the sky.

Still waiting for your loves return,
You gag on the all consuming fumes,
Your body begins to burn,
I am on my way you presume.

And through these thick flames,
You see my shadow in distance,
You hear me calling your name,
As you stand with resistance.

Trapped in this great fire,
But you trust me to break through,
Waiting for the thirst of desire,
Waiting for me to save you.

This burning paradise,
Is our test of endurance,
Once we prevail it will be nice,
As fall back on love as assurance.

I storm into this wall,
The heat is more then we can stand,
I come up to you as you fall,
I catch you and take your hand.

And through these thick flames,
You see my shadow in distance,
You hear me calling your name,
As you stand with resistance.

Trapped in this great fire,
But you trust me to break through,
Waiting for the thirst of desire,
Waiting for me to save you.

Once we are far enough away,
We drop to the ground,
We watch it burn to gray,
Without making a sound.

So much beauty within this disaster,
As it becomes but an ember,
A year later we have grew faster,
We still remember.

And through these thick flames,
You see my shadow in distance,
You hear me calling your name,
As you stand with resistance.

Trapped in this great fire,
But you trust me to break through,
Waiting for the thirst of desire,
Waiting for me to save you.

The ashes that pulled us together,
The smoke that once filled the sky above,
We knew it was now or never,
To prove our love.

We are left with only the memory,
Of the fire where our love made its start,
How much this event means to me,
And how it still burns in our hearts.

Cross the Line

You say the fault is your own,
But I know it is mine,
While they steal our throne,
We fall further behind.

This royal relation we possess,
Is being taken from under our feet,
Our beating hearts are left a mess,
We have fallen to this masked deceit.

So this is our last chance,
To make the lost found,
Recreate our first dance,
Upon this earthquake stricken ground.

Just follow the rhythm of the beat,
Synchronize our watches back in time,
Back to the moment where we meet,
And once again we will cross the line.

Let's run through this town,
Like bulls on parade,
Turn the world upside down,
Just to end up in the same masquerade.

This place is not the same,
I miss the days when these streets were home,
Back when me and you would play the game,
And through this city we'd roam.

So this is our last chance,
To make the lost found,
Recreate our first dance,
Upon this earthquake stricken ground.

Just follow the rhythm of the beat,
Synchronize our watches back in time,
Back to the moment where we meet,
And once again we will cross the line.

We are the lost,
Who now are the found,
The lines we have crossed,
Leave our hearts bound.

Friends hearts work together,
Like a bullet to a gun,
They live through all weather,
Because they beat as one.
