Un-Speak

I missed myself today
I caught the head cold of apathy
And now I can't stop my useless sneezing
We're still nursing the wounds
But we're still holding the razors blade-down-ready
I wanna fall in love tonight
Wanna see the sun soaked in ice
You're holding the natches while I juggle the gasoline
We laugh and laugh while the world stops turning
Didn't you see the question in my eyes?
Please don't make me sepeak;
Don't let me shatter the glassy film over your mind
Have you any idea how long this has taken?
How long I've waited to stand back and watch you walk away?
Or was I just another fit of
Blinding red emotion in your gray everyday
