And oh, how we search
For humbleness
In such unhumble ways
As if by nature
Designed for want
Never if by necessity

I don’t really want this song to end
I’m sort of addicted to this endless waltz
That you and I have been locked in
It’s not everyday
You get to dance with the devil
Eloquently chained to one another
Flowing heavenly towards sin
I’m held hostage
By the desires you possess
With fire eyes
All the shades of past lovers
Found in one ball room
Up high, snuck past the gates of Heaven
Where we’ll dance
Till the world tears itself apart

And so, time will call again
The worlds just really heavy
Second guessing, falling under
The pull of the restless sea
Unable to stay, even being afloat
Sitting alone in the long night
The only company seems to be the firelight
For soon enough
Years from now
All the current perils
Will be glorified tales
In the eye gleams
For children to dance

Let’s go get lost, what do ya say?
Anywhere is better than here
Narnia isn’t too far
Hogwarts is just over the bridge
The Hundred Acre Woods is close
How about Westeros?
Maybe, your feelin’ Halloweentown?
Neverland is just a short walk
To be honest, we could stay right here
In this moment
Make our own fairytale
If you’re up for it...

There is no plan for my life
That I can seem to follow
So, I don’t have time for all of these games
And, I do not plan on staying the same
Cause’ I’m gonna be better
Things will get better
Better when you see me next

She was vibrant with a dash of darkness
Cascading into the summer sunset
She caught me staring a few times
Watching her bare back
Watching the sinew of the muscle fibers
As she hugged herself tight
She cared more of how I felt though
Asking how my night was going
Tired and sore my dear
“Anything I can do to make it better?”
She said with a devilish tone
In a second she transformed into something more
Removing the wristband
Pulling her hair into a ponytail
Grinning with delight
I never stood a chance

I’m here in California
And the thousand miles away
Still my minds calling for ya
Running away from Hollywood and the valley
Cause’ there’s the winter snows and northern winds
So, give it a week and I’ll be saying goodbye to Cali
I just can’t seem to leave you alone
So, here soon I’ll be heading home

She told me blood moons
Meant destruction
How funny as we seemed so inclined
I quit strumming
Just to comment on your legs
How they’d looked so good
But would look better over my shoulders
Eyes a flutter
Bitten lips
Back locked up
Frozen in time
With the moonlight
Razing our shadows
Just for the night

Start to hyperventilate
No, I’m not seein’ straight
Knees begin to wobble
Cut my brakes, and lock the throttle
I couldn’t stop it if I wanted
Shadowy silhouettes
Make break into sweats
I’ve been dazed and confused
Since the day I met you
I’ve maybe lost my head
Yet, I’d do it all again
Perhaps I’m losing my my mind
There’s just something about you
That’s left me dazed and confused
Something about your eyes
Under certain influence
Unable to walk in straight lines
Build me up and leave me here in ruins
Either I’ve seen the light
Or I’m losing my mind
Just dazed and confused

I suppose I just didn’t hear you
The waves were too loud
But, I definitely could read your lips

“Don’t get attached to me.”

But, the sun was setting low.

Note if I die
It’s just a letter
Definitely have mixed feelings about it
Knowing I’ll forever be attached to you
Part of me feels bad for you
Hey, maybe I’ll be in God’s place
Hopefully behavin’ myself
The misconception is
I’ve only ever felt like the world’s better off without me
And I admit you make it a priority
To show me
The world won’t be the same without me
I guess I wonder if my soul will be missin?
I’m sure tomorrow we’ll do it different

I just got back and had my beats on
Jogging up the stairs
So, steep for an apartment complex
You were coming down
Crossing paths
Locking eyes
With the lyrics screaming in my ears

“I don’t want no temporary
Give me all or nothin
Imma keep it real with you
And give you all my lovin
Girl to tell the truth
It’s been a year and I’m still crushin
Girl let’s take a ride and keep it quiet
No discussin, we can take it slow
Nowhere to go no need to rush it
And if you need me I’ll be around to keep you buzzin”

My confessions seem to always lie at the bottom of the deep end
These intricate caverns of guilt doused memories
With no true reason
For I have never truly felt loved
Forgotten and cast aside
By those unaware, yet cast like a skipping stone
Smooth and polished and so misshapen
As if my father not loving me was my own doing
Or unable to believe my past loves could love me
For I believed I was different and different couldn't be loved
Yet, I learned by you
That some may love the sunrise, while other's may love the sunset
And night feels just as home as day
While one can be attached to land
As the other soaks in the waves
Yet, there's sand in between
That's where our love seems to meet
Somewhere in between
And of that, all of which it is
I wouldn't trade for the world

It seems the judge and the jury
tried to buy me time
I just might be guilty of this crime
It's as if I left the window open overnight
As there are somedays I wake and the world doesn't shine as bright
Maybe it's me and my brain that just don't fit together quite right
The memories I thought I left behind
Those tire tracks just talk dirt behind my back
The more I'm happy the less that you see
Writing salt licked sympathies to show the world just what I'm finding out about me

The breath stealing peaks
Three friends and an existential crisis
Snow covered caps and march air
I thought the farther I ran
My problems just might not catch me
Till a voice whispered so, delicately
To the rest of my body
“What the **** are we?”

It use to be so **** different back then
We were kids and now
We’re suppose to be women and men
There’s so many things
We need to start to understand
That we’re not queens and kings
And we should prepare for the end
Like hitting one another’s phones up when we feel all alone
Hands up to the ceiling
Please mind our business
This is where we hide our feelings
You all know how it is
No expectations that’s just how we’re livin’
Understandin’ that not all of our crimes will be forgivin’
So, count your blessings  and never start to question
Anything that you can mention that’s what time it is
