Drowned
Triggered by a landslide...it was out of my hands..buried beneath hope & circumstance...do you think it was worth it?...Let me be the first to admit...I saw it coming...pray you're hurting twice as much as me...but somehow I doubt it...Blinded by the moonlight in your eyes...as you twisted the knife in...manufactured bitter poison smile...draining the life from me...Hope you're happy with this...now you're free to spread your wings...tear me limb from limb...at least you've kept your self respect...I drowned in your eyes...but I never survived...I found my missing link...inside my mind...numb from it all no further to fall...concede this battle but I'll win the war...What does not kill me will only make me stronger.......
Better Than Me
Whisper it to me...selective honesty...wish you the best...better than me...Tired of loving & giving...receiving nothing...I'll never admit it...don't get a chance to decide for myself for my sanity...I hope you miss me...Distance makes the heart grow colder...time will always be the healer...disconnected epithets...fail to heal the here & now...Tired of letting my heart rule my head...no chance to make a difference...what's special to me means little to you...too late to wish that I'd never met you...Whisper it to me...tell me you meant it...wish you the best...better than me...Can't stop the waves of emotion...high tide hurts like hell...low tide low ebb low self-esteem...just want it all to end....
Glass Eye
Drained love
lost time broken heart...rage through numb inside dying light...used for
what purpose
was never
made clear...turn your cheek & move on....Seems pointless to me...never
had a chance to see for myself...to you to me we can only agree on nothing...shadows
reflect from a glass eye...distorting versions of truth...don't pity me
I feel for you...lost in a time of confusion...Don't visit your ghosts
upon me...don't let the past become reality...take the chance to step out
of the shadows...I'll turn my back & walk away...Last time I'll let
go of my emotions...rein it in hold it in check...no one to be close...no
one to hurt me like you...Shadows reflect from a glass eye...tell me the
truth about past lies...never forgive but I'll try to forget...images burned
in my mind...of you
Happenstance
See it from afar...it never goes away...abandoned lost alone...earth melt to stars...Connect and replicate...a million thoughts of One...Lost distance track of time...expand the mind outside...cause effect and multiply...forewarned yet not forearmed...Déjà vu a thing of the past...this is my time...know what is to come...reach out from behind...all around yourself...wrong place at the right time...right place for the wrong life...far beyond sense...This is my time...my happenstance...my fourth dimension...reflection of a million lives...This is your time...your happenstance...your fourth dimension...look inside yourself
Missing
Wheels within wheels within cycles...cycles that bind us to our fate...regardless the energies keep combining...serves to remind me to wipe clean the slate...searching for answers to questions I cannot voice...you came from nowhere to show me the way my dear...still lie the waters that blanket my bitterness...nothing else can hurt me as I drown in your eyes...Clearing the mists from my head like a hurricane...trapped in the eye of the storm but I feel safe...look to you now as I feel you slip away...leave me with nothing more than a memory... I couldn't bear to hate you...don't want to turn against you...I couldn't bear to lose you...channel myself through you...feed off the strength of feeling...missing until now...Clearing the mists from my head like a hurricane...trapped in the eye of the storm but I feel safe...look to you now as I feel you slip away...leave me with nothing more than a memory...Lau yit quan my mantra...lau yit quan my cornerstone...tell me what I've been missing...show me the way once more my dear
Conscience
It was nothing a brief moment to savour...spoke with my heart expected no favours...way down inside...way down inside me...I let the sun shine on my conscience...let the sun shine on my conscience...feel it cleanse me...As I face the new dawn speak no more of you...at night when the dreams come then I will be true to me...way down inside...way down inside me...Not going to change my view...will not be broken by you...untroubled is my conscience...trust in myself...but not in you...I let the sun shine on my conscience...let the sun shine on my conscience...feel it cleanse me
Reboot
Shut you down wipe the memory clean...start from scratch mould you in my image...experience rebirth...crash the program...stake the claim...to be who I will...soul searching takes me places that I don't want to be...reconnect only to find inevitable incompatability...is it me?...reboot restart or leave me
Delirious
Spoken..
And all the
colours become white...the sunlight helps to hold delirium at bay...seated
, warm, I desire...nothing more than my dreams...can provide..escape from
sliding down into...I will not call it destiny...for I merely take delight...I
do not - can not regret my desire...warmed by the sun I sit...on my window
sill and dream...before me on an endless field...I wonder if this is destiny
I face...a vision of how what I will come to be...I must be delirious...Frustrated
libido...a constant companion...wanting and needing to be deserved...Awake
and restless...unable to question the silence...so quiet there is shouting...screaming
aloud am I loud enough for you...to hear or too subtle for you...to even
taste...confused like you by has beens...too scared to pass right through
away...Frustrated libido...a constant companion...wanting and needing to
be deserved
Echoes
What could it be...that lurks behind me...what could it be...that takes me slowly...I could not help but feel this way...I shouldn't have to feel this way...It echoes back again...It echoes back again...
