Intervene

I arrive to report on the scene,
Blood and deceit is all that is seen,
I never thought I'd have to intervene,
I thought it was all a dream.

I bet you never guessed it was all sex appeal,
That you focused far too much on how to feel,
To feel that his love was oh so real,
But in the end it'll just pop your seal.

You would have never knew,
That he just wanted his due,
Thinking you found something true,
But in the end it was nothing new.

Nothing new just something fake,
Turns out he was just on the take,
They say that future is what you make,
I hope you've caught on for your sake.

But instead you just close your eyes,
And accept your unpleasant surprise,
Leaving yourself waiting with your cries,
For him to "change" before your heart dies.

Beyond Our Front Door

We are moving far too slow,
Way too hesitant to let things go,
So let's pick up the pace,
And get the hell out of this place.

Venture off into the bluest skies,
In search of the newest surprise,
Anything to make us feel more alive,
To begin to do more than just survive,

Let's follow the path of the uncertain,
Approach the window and open the curtain,
To see all that is beyond our front door,
The world that hides so much more.

So let's set sail,
And find the long lost holy grail,
Let's set off to the unknown land,
Just me and you, hand-in-hand.

But in reality it's all for one sake,
To be with you just takes the cake,
I don't care if we stay in one place,
As long as I can face it all in your embrace.

To Awake

I'm just a first class American lazy,
A lower-class sociopathic crazy,
Looking for nothing but something true,
Something to lead me back to you.

My heart is beating to your silhouette so picturesque,
Your heartbeats are acting as my GPS,
Guiding me to your horizon,
Where the sun is always risin'.

But there lies an ocean between,
A pool of purgatory binds our seam,
I won't let it keep us apart,
I'll swim it for years in hopes of a start.

I'll cross it at the speed of sound,
A plane flying homeward-bound,
This border I will break down and slaughter,
Just for you I'll walk on water.

I'll break through this wall of separation,
I'll sweat off the fear in perspiration,
And I'll be there in the morning waiting for you to wake,
Waiting for your gentle eyes to awake.

Waiting to tell you that I wouldn't let them keep us apart,
They can never keep us apart, they can never prevent this spark,
They can never stop this page of our beating hearts,
Because in their rhythm they'll always rediscover their start.

The start born the day they were completed.
Born when their sorrows were deleted.
Born in the words exchanged that found their way into view,
The utterance of the three words that resonate true.
The moment we synchronized those three simple words: I love you.

No Shame

It all adds up,
It all makes sense,
You drank from the cup,
Your capillaries became tense.

Swollen with fear,
The world seems absurd,
Surrounded by your oceans of tear,
You're at a loss of words.

There's no shame,
Left in the cloth,
You've lost your soul and name,
When you took it off.

So lock the door,
Cause you're all alone,
You don't need it anymore,
You've lost all you've known.

It's about time you let go,
Before this swallows you whole,
Before the lights no longer glow,
Save your heart and soul.

You sound so weak,
You need to become full,
Look not in the past bleak,
Remember in the end, we all feel the pull.
