Screen the empty, and admit you’re not up for a comedy.
My stare’s unwavering, I have reason to doubt your dependency
What you’re doing, acts as a hurdle in my way
But you can’t trick me, I will always get back at you lovingly
It’s not the end of us
It’s the end of a love affair
I will be telling you
Again and again
Give in gently, you must learn to give in to my power grip
As for laughter, you will have to forget him cause now you’re with me
Laughter call out my name. Call out my name and I’ll never make you angry again. x4
Comprehend me, I have to elude this reality
You don’t deserve me. I’m not here to embrace a duality
What I’m doing will make me find another way
You’ll forget me and I know that it’s right for me to say
This is the end of us and someday I will let you go
It’s time to look for me again

Should I freeze time just for us?
April fools us all and laughs
Such a shame you lost it all..
When everything blossoms
Your absence is whispering
Winter came and grabbed you from
From my dreams with a song
When the flowers start to bloom
The cold dissolves and I can hear your pulse
When everything blossoms, your absence is whispering.

Her scoff, broke out
Words in all caps
She kept her eyes
Shut through the night
-Hey Lymar, not all paths lead there
-I’m not taking any path I’m following the sun
He always plays his part
When you sing
Shine comes in
There’s no need
To compete
-Hey Lymar, not all paths lead there
-I’m not taking any path I’m following the sun
He always plays his part
-Build a road round him
He’ll always be out there
-I am following his lead
That way I’ll never weep
You tag along and see
-Hey Lymar don’t go out stay here
-No, he always dresses peaks where no one’s ever been
My company he seeks
-Winter’s here early let’s make it worthy
-Can you find it in your heart to listen to me once and show a hint of trust?
Winter came I know clouds cold rain and snow
I will rise above them all and show you and the world all that I’ve ever learned

Don't Wait For Me

Left right out of left field
Sophomore’s arrest
Learned a stranger’s last name
And I guessed the rest
Saw some people wading
Riding the crest
Who could blame the wave
And its rough caress?
Don’t wait for me
The judge, the enemy.
The more of them I meet
The more I crook the creek
Lovely smile, perfectly
Stunning thing, in the ring
When you’re here, all is clear
I am being reeled in.
Come back home again, home again
Mei’s already here. Here with me.
Come back home again. Ring the bell
And I will let you know how I’ve been
'less I find another way
Nest inside my humble sleight
Caress give way to two clenched fists
A kiss he’ll never really miss
A thing that’s lately come to pass
Your mouth has lost the lust for laughs
You glue your words together using sass
Your touch is followed by a gasp
Lovely smile, perfectly
Stunning thing, in the ring
When you’re here, all is clear
I am being reeled in.

Eat Away
04:50
|

|
Stranded loners
Gaze upon herds
Sight is blinding
Their smiles… conniving
The delight and all the giggles were sheer
But it still keeps on breeding fear
An old and dull idea
Sustained throughout the years
He tiptoes through tough spots
Sentences full of stops
By the end all he knows
Is how to extinguish a hose
Pondering in wonderment
Does this wall need a dent?
If it does I’ll break my hand
Camouflaged silhouette
Eat away, eat away at something
I should blame the hero of the day
Eat away, eat away the sun
Heed when he shouts out loudly “you are done”
What’s it mean? That one surely has meaning
Need a hint for ‘I’ to stay kept in with ‘me’
Leap of faith but first I’ll rest my leg that aches
Led astray by that which I still beg to stay
Stranded loners
Gaze upon herds
The stairs are winding
The circle’s frightening
The delight and all the giggles were real
But it still lies in wait for a kill
Its face it won’t reveal
As though we’ve made a deal
He tiptoes through tough spots
Sentences full of stops
By the end all he knows
Is how to extinguish a hose
Pondering in wonderment
Does this wall need a dent?
If it does I’ll break my hand
Camouflaged silhouette
Eat away, eat away at something
I should blame the hero of the day
Eat away, eat away the sun
Heed when he shouts out loudly “you are done”
What’s it mean? That one surely has meaning
Need a hint for ‘I’ to stay kept in with ‘me’
Leap of faith but first I’ll rest my leg that aches
Led astray by that which I still beg to stay

Dressed In Green

Hat on, out the door
A day you’ve lived before
Panic drinks from all our caps
As it shows us the
Way that the river flows
Laying down, dressed in green
Gave rest to the spin
The smile that I must have seen before
It would stand alone
And could smile at the call of crows
And I…
Memory
Stifled it since
Always meant to say
Stay. Right there.
But then again
That moment meant
Everything to me you see
Hold my key
It could be innate
Or a brand new way
A trial perhaps
But that could never last
It felt more than fine
Many a time
When you’d rest your head against my mind
When your hand touched mine
Every time we would say goodnight

Stay, await.
Break, remain.
Frail, refrain.
Pave the way
Doubt and fright will be, my love,
Performing our evening song
Controlling our impending dawns
Lest we disturb the honeycomb
Now we fly as if nothing’s wrong
I wish the guards would make some room
A lie to find what’s left behind
Steers the way, deals with fate.
Main restraint
Crave the “may”
Open up a door, in case it’s there
Your name, your name.
Now’s the time to listen in
I know your eyes are wet my dear
I know your heart bears more than fear
And your chest weighs an ounce from here
Name a song we both can sing
And if there’re none I’ll let you be
A lie to find what’s left behind
Creeps within, plays to win.

Ways To End A Letter
08:40
|

Left from home to come back home again
Little kid did not know where they went
Just the thought of them being back at night
Had It waiting as the time drew nigh
They’d come in to find a puppeteer
Showing off the tricks he engineered
Dreaming of one day becoming big
Big enough to climb off of the crib
To inform the wisdom king
Destroys ideals
A love, a love so strong
Won’t make it wrong x2
Time to leave for good
This time I think I’ll go alone
Come on pick up your head
And comb your hair
I will meet you there
The masters of its dreams would come alive and its screaming echoed through the night
Every time they looked into its eyes
Little kid would feel immobilized
A flick of the switch revealed the light
That takes all the bad thoughts back in time
Dreams are not that real but we should dream
Cause in your dreams you can’t chose who’ll win
To control the raging bull enrages it some more
But love that’s strong, won’t make it wrong, the beast will calm.
Time to leave for good
This time I think I’ll go alone
Come on pick up your head
And comb your hair
I will meet you there
All in all, he’s calling and I will be ready when you’re all tucked in
Your eyes look tired my love
Tonight, lay down and dream the sweetest dream
All in all, he’s calling and I will be sure to keep my smile wide
To let you know how much of me stays beside you
Tonight, I’m leaving here but never you.
Time to end the letter that I have been writing all my life
Just read the last few pages love they’ll remind you
That I’m leaving here, but never you.
Not the same with you away, away, away. x2
It’s not the same with you away, away, away. x2
Time to leave for good
This time I know I’ll go alone
Come on pick up your head
And comb your hair
I will meet you there
We will meet again
Trust me you’ll be great.
