Some people love oceans and beaches
I''d just rather stare into space
and watch the stars fall from heaven
With you
as we
hold hands with sobriety
and poison the rest of the world with our happiness
Everyone will think we are crazy
but the truth is they're jealous

Some people like roses
But it's the daises that simultaneously define love and luck
No matter how I start the riddle
it always ends out in my favor
With you
As we
play under the covers
and create a garden of romance with green-eyed spectators
Everyone already thinks we're blessed
And the truth is they are all envious

Some people like synonyms
And I am one of them
No matter how many ways you define it
there is only one meaning
With you
we make
an adjective, a hobby
But they say the richer the better--
and I agree
But the truth is they can be skeptical
But we still prove them wrong

Take me
and break me
please
steal this heart
away and
engage me
I'm bleeding
while choking
on these words
not knowing
you've cheated me
now
You're leaving me
I'm still left bleeding
on words you've decieved
to me
I wonder
Why can't you believe in me?
Take your heart
and be sincere to me

Change,
Don't be subtle like the cold breath of wind that is yesterday's memory
Start as soon as last nights moon becomes this morning's sunrise
History is in the making
The rest of the world is waiting for you
Love is the movement
These circumstances we are faced with will dissipate
And you will overcome your biggest fear
and this glorious day will become
Extraordinary
I do not imagine my strength, I believe it
I control you
with the blink of an eye
and for one instant I feel
Powerful
I am shameless
Still I feel heartless, judged, and incapable
I have seen, how cowards judge the rest of the world
But I can swallow my weakness whole
I can bury my insecurities
Close my eyes and get closer to the happiness that was destroyed
And the visions that pour from my imagination become pixels of reality
And suddenly life is worth living

At the edge of dissolution
she bites her lip to lock the key
she dances in her vulnerability
through the blizzard, through the heat
hoping he will come around
and bite his lip in sufferance
and confess
his sins;
all her broken wishes

My man
is made
of armor
pure and strong
his lips are sweet
as sugar cane
to them
I do belong

It was Sunday when you cried
into my lap you were dying inside
I was hoping I could end it,
but your tears made me feel like a new beginning
So I sat
and I waited
maybe you were admitting you were wrong
For so long, I had prayed that
I could be the high note in your song

But tears only covered up the shame you held in
You weren't admitting anything
You were only crying because your time was up
and you new your love could never be enough

You cried for me
I cried for you too
You'd die to be
back into my arms if only you could

You lied to me
Sometimes I'd lie to you
You'd die to be
back into my arms if only you could

If
If words described the feelings
that are trapped inside my soul
then the painting of my stomach acid
would express the debt I'm owed.
