(Oo oo oo oo)
I tend to simplify
Solidarity to its core
Sadistically settle for nothing more
Complex yet futile my love seems to rest
In the palm of someone who loves me less
My tale of woes I drag with a pen
(Na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na)
I’ll take my time again
To feel everything in full
Cuz I won’t settle for you
I’ll clean my act up wash you away
In a feat of triumph you’ve left no stain
I watch in fear and disdain
I hold my breath
As you exhale
Stuck in my mind
But you prevail
Fear rears its head
When a moment slips like a thought from my head
And I will fall again
(Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na)
So I ask you to dance
To the rhythm of my hands
And you move to the beat
But you’re stepping on my feet
Interlaced in your stride
I’m fraying at the seams
Silhouette a disguise
You lay underneath
(oooo oooo)
(oooo oooo)
You hold your breath
I can exhale
Stuck in your mind
Now I prevail

The Sea

I dreamt in kelidascope light
As we faded into the night
She tried to capture the sun
But it wouldn’t stay for long
In a haze I lost her gaze
So I guess I set her free
She will find that heart of hers
In the depths of the sea
As the days passed long and slow
She felt her heart grow cold
So she searched for someone
To help her mind grow strong
Though I left her long ago
I felt her presence grow
As I waded into the sea
She was staring back at me
She held my hand with grace
As our fingers interlaced
I will show her the ways of the world
And watch her hair unfurl
That morning I drew a map
Of the things I can’t make sense of
But the ink just clouded my eyes
So I lay them to rest
And as I awoke
The ink had stained my cheeks
So I held you longer than I could
In our home stuck in time

What I Knew

I fall
I fall into your arm
And I hold
I hold onto something that I conjured up
But you bought
You bought into every word I thought you hung on
So I saw
I only saw
What I knew
I loved
I loved the way your hands reached for mine in the dead of night
But in your dreams
But in your sleep
Was it my hands you meant to meet
I fight the urge to tumble down into my mind
The space you once occupied
Now filled with a lack of regret
Cuz I’m the best I’ve been yet
I held my head far longer than you held me
Fallen in scattered debris
I find myself looking for truth
That I couldn’t see looking at you

Wildflowers

There’s simplicity in this relief
Though most would deem you a disappointment
I’ve let go of the breath
That I clutched like a child to my chest
So I can inhale stifle a tear
Picture your silhouette in a garden of gold
But how could I fail at intrigue and lust
When in your tapestry I am laced
I will waste for you
I dreamt of wildflowers in my hair
And your love in my hand
