a book of poems

the two of us in enough of love
to stay afloat and none of us drown
strike fear in the gods with our howls
broken to bits in pieces we lay
on top of a book of poems
thinking this just might be home
we helped ourselves, somehow never filled
our emptiness left unsated
permanence forever faded
i'd sit here a charlatan
as we get closer to snow
if I said that I don't miss your hold

drown me in water or wine
either way i'd find somehow to turn out alright
where did you go alone
I'd have given my eyes and ears to help you find a home
wish i was there i swear
I'd have ripped you from the city that almost stripped you bear
pardon me please i mean
wouldn't you rather be lost among the oceans and the trees
its in the past we cast
purple and yellow shadows that we thought would never last
so crumble with me we'll see
whats left of this world and what will be will be

shameless shell
04:28

there's a dark in me, its hard to tell
but i let you in so you in so you could dwell
you broke on through my shameless shell
and all the pieces rip and tear
all my scars they open wide
and i should have never let you inside
the sober thoughts, they flood my mind
and i ain't got nowhere to hide
and who is gunna save you
i'm sorry i am such a drag
but when i think of all that i had
alone and all i have is me
and goddamn am i bad company
and now who is gunna save

dream lover

every night I hope and pray
a dream lover will come my way
a girl to hold in my arms
and know the magic of her charms
cause i want a girl
to call my own
i want a dream lover
so i don't have to dream alone
dream lover where are you
with a love oh so true
and a hand that i can hold
to feel you near as i grow old
because i want a girl
to call my own
i want a dream lover
so i don't have to dream alone
someday i don't know how
i hope she'll hear my plea
some way i don't know how
she'll bring her love to me
so dream lover until then
i'll go to sleep and dream again
thats the only thing to do
till all my lover's dreams come true
because i want a girl
to call my own
i want a dream lover
so i don't have to dream
a dream lover
so i don't have to dream
a dream lover
so i don't have to dream alone

my bones

|

waiting on my judgement day
where everything's taken away
and someone sings me a birthday song
god i wish you could stay
and all of my friends that finally were
well my past has taken others
and my ghost
is crawling from my bones
speeding down the road in the rain
who's a man to blame
and all of my destiny is turning to dust
but i'll go on if i must
where is my future where is my hope
well its pending the end of a rope
and my ghost
is crawling from my bones

call me sacrificial
that'll make it easier
for all the rotten things you do ok
nothing but yourself
fills that head of egos
self intrinsic thoughts make you alright
theres no cure for selfish
believe me I tried to help
all those years you've gone and took away
i guess i'm at fault for
making you feel like you're bigger
than the bit of space that you take up
or maybe I'm dumb
let me forward my path
escape your toxic presence
all you did was fill me up with doubt
and you'll be fine don't worry
ride your ship to all the glories
hurdles don't come much to ones like you
theres no cure for thinking
that you're something special
maybe you'll get smarter maybe not
and I guess I was part of
making you feel like you're something
stepping on my throat to help you up
or maybe I'm dumb

died in the catacombs
03:06
|
|||
|
you were digging up italy
i was useless in my bed
lost everything that meant to me
sorrow riding rivers red
my desire was hearing love
when the wine got a hold of your tongue
gunna die inside the catacombs
for my sins i shall atone
damn this year and damn my eyes
and while you're at it damn my mouth
wouldn't stop you if you tried
follow flocks all flying south
i've retired feeling love
let the buzzards tear my tongue
i have died inside the catacombs
all my sins i share alone

when
when i see your face
its hard to keep in good graces
and yeah
when I meet my god
hopefully he's not
mad at me for what I've done
'cause i have lied a lot
maybe it will not
maybe it will not all go my way
anyway
yeah
maybe i've gone insane
from all this fucking pain
that i feel inside my hart
and don't
don't you dare help me
don't you try and say
that its gunna be okay
cause i have lied a lot
maybe it will not
maybe it will not all go my way
anyway
you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
you'll never know dear
how much i love you
so please don't take
my sunshine away
there's logs on the fire
hoping for some kind of
cold attire
and oh
that makes me a liar
just for a second
some keen denial
and ah it all desire
hang me from my neck
from rope and wire
and i have gotten so tired
sleeping on something
so cold and tile
