Lacerate
PART I
Goodbye to the places that we know
To places that we’ve been
And secret spaces we’ll never go
I want to drink you, but she is the sea
Water fills spaces
The places I could never be
Sad light, star bright
Laces are binding tonight
Faces come and lace will wear
But the sea doesn’t share
He is the sea – but she isn’t me
PART II
We stand up for the spaces that we see
I believe in love
And the places that fill the sea
Will you unbind the lace for me
I believe in you
And the spaces that fill your sea
Spaces roam
Faces they can be unknown
Places stay
Laces lacerate
Bound and tied today
Laces lacerate
Heartbeat Pouring Sunlight
This love is tearing me in two
Maybe I’m crazy lying here with you
But what a feeling
When I hold you in my arms
I would be content
If the day faded into the sun
All along inside of me
I’ve come undone – will undo
And I hope someday that you will see
My love for you is so real
And you – breathe the life inside of me
I took your hand into mine
So hard to tell you
I had to give you a sign
Then I held you – I held you through the night
Only awakened
By your heartbeat pouring sunlight
And you – fill the breath inside of me
I can’t wait to see you smile
Oh, babe and I miss you
I miss you when you’ve been gone for a while
This is all inside of me
You’re all inside of me
On A Shelf
Feels like my heart is slowly ripping out of my chest
It leaves nothing behind
My tears fill the pages of my soul distressed
Bringing no peace of mind
In a sense she has won
Taking everything dear to me and my heart
Leaving nothing to be said
Such a shame – such a shame
For us to part
My face is lost, lost on a shelf
If she only knew
How we begun
He keeps his truths in the dark
Does she think she’s his only one
Well you’re not the only one
Incompetent she is
He’ll put me away so she doesn’t show, you know
The time has come to address
By now you’d think she know
You’d think she’d figure it out
My world is waiting to crash dismay
I cannot keep my eyes shut
Leaving actions to convey
For now I’ll be sitting here
I’ll be sitting on a shelf
Farewell To Yesterday
It’s been five weeks, three days
Since I last had my morning cup of coffee
I don’t feel bad, but I feel worse
Now that I’ve seen her face smiling back at me
Who in the hell do you think you are?
Taking those all little girls hearts
She feels bad, but I feel worse
Now that they’ve crossed the line and it really hurts
He said I was so pure
Maybe someday
But I’m not that man anymore
Emotions are too high
He doesn’t need this shit
So, we walk, so, we walk
We walk away
This is my yesterday
I’ve been counting the hours into days
And I think you’re wrong
You don’t feel bad, and that’s even worse
Now that you’re in my head, and in every fucking song
He said I was so pure
Never say never
But I’m not that man anymore
Emotions are too high
He doesn’t need this shit
So, he walks, so, he walks
He walks away
He was my yesterday
61 Strands
They march to the beat of a big bass drum
Swinging hard playing low
In the fields that they roam
Steam rises from the bodies that he left the night before
Confusion is confusion and confuses even more
Where can I roam
I march to the beat of his big bass drum
Playing hard – begging low
In the bricks where they come
Where boys come
Streaming grays they caught my eye
Sixty-one and falling
Flying into the sky
Where does he roam
I can’t get you out of my head
I don’t understand why – why
Eyes closed heart open
I fall, I fall, I fall to my knees again
Love takes prisoners it gets inside
Well, I am troubled now
Yes, souls are troubled now
My heart isn’t very well
La La’s
Jade
He told me – can’t be chased
Like we’re living a sadistic game he likes to play
Words were spoken – red lines drawn
My wounds were opened again
Again she calls me – says he’s not ready
And that it was a little awkward for him
So young and pretty – his female ideal
Second name is Godd
And I couldn’t hate you anymore than I hate you now
Send the 15’s and watch him get off for a little while
He said he didn’t care if he knew her in ten years
But hands under cover proved him wrong – they proved him wrong
I am bitter – call me Jade
This is what you have made of me
I never wanted to be – your Literary Pixie
And I crave one last line
And I couldn’t hate you anymore than I hate myself
Send the 15’s and watch him get off for a little while
He said he didn’t care if he knew her in ten years
But hands under cover proved him wrong – they proved him wrong
Hands under blanket they proved him wrong – they proved him wrong
They proved him wrong
Unconstructed
8 A.M on this Sunday morning
I lost my head
Because I’m unconstructed
I fell like the snow
Down, down I go
I saw him walking in – and I thought I could be dreaming
Inside my head
You think you’re so constructed
I wish I would have known
About the man you’ve shown
I hope that you have found your chemistry
And that she is everything that I never want to be
Your voice haunts me – I have heard you in my dreams
Eyes wet – heart dead – I am unconstructed
You heart was cold – on that Sunday morning
Lost in your head
Souls are unconstructed
You’re nothing to me*How’s that for poetry
Her poetry has got nothing on me
I hope that you have found your chemistry
And that she is everything that I never want to be
Your voice haunts me – I have heard you in my dreams
Eyes wet – heart dead – I am unconstructed
Eyes wet – heart dead
Eyes wet – heart dead
Eyes are wet – my heart is bled
I am unconstructed
