She's thunderstorms and rain,
To your calm and sunny days.
She's the reason my ship sank,
To your open port in a storm.

Even with you gone,
So many miles away,
I can still feel the warmth,
Of your sunny days.

Sometimes it's raining,
Even when you're with me.
But I promise to keep you dry,
In this stormy sea.

She is thunderstorms and rain,
that cleared away all my sunny days,
But you've dried up all the water,
She left from rainy may.

I don’t know how to save me,
And I know I’ll never be alive,
But there’s something about you baby,
That makes me wanna try.

Day by day,
Night by night,
I fake a smile,
And put out delight.

I know I’ll never be alive,
And I know I’ll never love again,
So I hold out for you baby,
And I learn how to bend.

On one knee I pray to God,
That there will never be an end.
But I know someday baby,
I’ll just be another forgotten trend.

Day by day,
Night by night,
I fake a smile,
And put out delight.

I know I’ll never be alive,
I know my heart’ll never beat again,
So I hold out for you baby,
And I learn how to bend.

I wait until the darkness comes,
And puts out the light,
And then my friendly stranger shows,
Such a wonderful delight.

He smiles and he laughs again,
But I know he’s just a fake.
Because he’s riding a white horse,
And he’s strung out for God’s sake.

Day by day,
Night by night,
I fake a smile,
And put out delight.

I know I’ll never be alive,
And I know I’ll never breathe.
But my heart is yours baby,
Until you decide to leave.

You've become a twisted tree,
Gnarled knots and roots dug so deep,
They've planted you right where you stand.

I picked an apple from your bows,
Climbed so high for what?
To taste something,
Something so sour I wish I never bit.

You said to use your limbs,
To build my broken home.
But I crawled into your trunk,
And settled into your bones.

I made my way down to your roots,
And planted my own seed.
I want to see you try to move,
When my roots entwine with yours.

I made my way up to your highest branch,
And took away the clouds,
Plucked off all of your fruit,
Just to make my way back home.

Now they plan to chop you down,
To build a highway where you stand,
And somehow I'm nowhere to be seen,
When you need a helping hand.

Years have passed,
Since you last held my hand.
I still remember how it felt,
While we stood before our favorite band.

They sang away the night,
With words that told you how I felt.
Your skin so smooth on mine,
While we were engulfed in the crowd.

I have to say that,
Was one concert I wish not to end.
But as we filed out of the doors,
It broke my heart to bring you back to him.

And when the rain came pouring down,
While we ran to the cover of your dorm.
I felt as if the road were no longer rough,
That it had been smoothly worn.

And I thought that maybe,
You meant to be more than just polite,
When you offered me a chance,
To stay and spend the night.

Sadly, I had reasons I could not,
And began my weary drive.
Wishing that I had never left,
Wishing I had just arrived.

I've been revisited,
By an old friend.
She sank her teeth into me,
Never let it end.

She said dear, why do you wait,
For something that can never be.
Why do you utter such words,
So very brazenly.

She said, if all those words,
Hurt like before,
Why do you stand there,
And stare at the door?

She said the darkness is loving,
Caring to the end.
So why not pull the trigger,
And be with an old friend?

Earth will not know tranquility,
Until everything made from men,
Is buried deep, drowning beneath the sea.
