her happier eyes
brilliant even in the sun
but she has a rough feel to her soul
she walks along the hot sidewalk with a dozen bags in arm
looks like it would tire an army of horses
but she says shes fine
"don't bug me with that 'good guy ****'
know your good, just not right now...
cause id rather be mad"

three thirty in the pool of a streetlight
we both swim in reasons
we both have battleships on fire
and its really only the hot humid air that keeps the blow by blow going

by dawn we are curled up in a park
miles from home
making love cause there aint much left to say
shes still mad
but shes ready to cry
i tell her i'm wrong
but we both know that don't matter
we both are just confused by the her that aint here
we are just confused by what should be

her happier eyes brilliant like twin starlight trains
keep speeding over me
and i keep kissing her hand
cause it s the nice guy thing to do
two hopeless romantics lost in the south florida rainforest

I fight against this pain
I fight against this anger
I fight against this agony
I’m going against myself

I fight against my nightmare
I fight against this animal
I fight against the world
I’m going against myself

I fight against the truth
I fight against the lies
I fight against reality
I fight against these thoughts

I’m fighting my self

You want to fight? Fine.
Swing your punch, hit my face,
Nose getting ******,
Eyes swelling to the colour of purple grapes,
The hate of your punch clear
In the arrogant way you stand.

You want to fight? Fine.
You'll never beat the fury out of my words.

Stop scarring your own skin
Tearing your thoughts apart
You are a masterpiece of wonders
Rebuild yourself and be whole again
Write out your demons
And tear the paper instead

he saw her dancing
in the night, enjoying
with lights, flickering
to the music, singing

she caught his glance,
smile at him in stance,
so he joined her and dance
because he cant lose the chance

they were so caught up in the night
they fell right in love at first sight
they knew the odds and are ready to fight,
because they know what future holds is bright
