How can I explain this so you can finally see,
That while I sit upon your grave down on bended knee
That my soul longs for the day to be set free
And frolic with the other souls just to be let be.
I cannot hide within this heart and hope to be made wise
Knowing you're no longer there but see me through the skies
But my heart is broken and I cannot find repair
With knowing you are gone and never to be there.
We were young when we met so many years ago
And with you gone it hurts to breathe and feel this empty soul
And sitting here with your letters spread upon my floor
Makes me wonder what had happened where our love did go.
I was so angry when you left,
You broke my heart in two
And took a piece to keep from me,
And carried it with you
But now you're gone and that piece hasn't yet returned
I'll just light the other half and maybe it will burn.
It's often I wonder which road to take,
The left or the right will make me quake
I give my love as if it's all
I can offer on exchange not to fall.
I fear of the fall could stop me dead
Or leave me shackled to a bed
But fear is just the opening score
My heart it fears wants so much more.
It sings with love and jumps with ease
It laughs with care and doesn't bleed
But if it does on rare occasion
Please don't look at the invasion.
For my heart just wants to love
It wants to be in the clouds above
And hold you tight within these arms
And never question your charms.
I stand here at a crossroad
Wondering how my heart's not stone
How with one simple breath
I could be left all alone.
I fight within the inner self
I pray that time is wrong
I hold on to a painful thought.
I don't want to be alone.
The path I take is long and hard
There is no time to cry
The only thought I seem to grasp
Is I won't be left behind.
I want to hold within my heart
The key that once was lost
To fight with out the pain it gives
To fight within this heart.
To find the end of the rocky path
I cannot stop or slow
For if I do You won't be there
And I won't be welcomed home.
I'll stand outside and wait
With all abated breath
To hope that you will look out and see
What awaits your longing glance.
The cold and snow won't stop me
From wanting all of you
To keep me safe and warm me up
With the love that enfolds you.
I see you mistress of the night
Wearing the white that shines in light
Holding the men their hearts so close
That you make other women seem like ghosts.
We vanish into the walls
As you walk by us through the halls
How long do you plan to hold their hearts so dear
Until you make each of the saps disappear?
Its unfair to steal each one away
Then throw them out with no delay
But they alone can save their hearts
From a bitter love form the start.
To think is to dream of a dream from the soul
Where fire and hunger and love does grow.
To dream is to love of a love that grows strong
With comfort, with hope, and timeless love.
To love is to pray for a prayer that is answered,
Like kisses and candy and happy ever after.
To pray is to hope for a hope of ones love,
Where kindness and smiles and sugar is won.
To dream is a wonder that binds me to you
To love is a power that keeps us true
To pray is a caress that comes in the night
To hope is a gift that holds us at night.
Heaven sent is what he said,
As he lay me on the bed.
He kissed my lips then kissed my brow,
And told me that forever found.
A love in which alas will lose
A dance in which we cannot choose
A single tear which left my eye,
A tiny prayer that thoughts could fly.
Tiny hearts that dance at night
And cause a man to lose in flight
Which lifts her up between their sheets
This is her last and only treat.
For he will leave her in the morn
And she shall be a woman scorn
But they will know the love they had
And the feelings that though were wrong, weren't bad.
Break away from the norm
Show me what you feel,
Tell me all the secrets stored
Keep me from the storm.
Stare at me with lighted eyes
Share the air I breathe
See the way the wind does blow
Feel the gentle breeze.
Break the chains that hold your soul
Shrouded in the fear
Bask within the hidden fires
Take that first breath.
See the gentle eyes of life
Don't let them dim in sight
For the power that you hold
Keeps then in the fight.
Pain sweet pain,
It's all I know.
It lifts me up,
It follows me home.
Pain sweet pain,
It sears the soul.
It cuts like a knife,
It breaks your bones.
Pain sweet pain,
It heals the wounds.
It lets us heal,
It shows we're real.
Love oh love,
It moves the soul,
It take the pain
It helps us grow.
Love oh love
It drive us wild.
It makes us young,
It stands the trial.
Love oh love,
I feel you now,
Through bone crushing pain,
The journey's begun.
Standing in the darkness,
Hearing all the cries,
Watching every painful thought
Slide across their eyes.
Knowing that you feel their pain,
Knowing that you understand,
Doesn't take your pain away,
Something you can't bare.
Standing silent in the shadows,
Watching them just walk on by,
No one ever notices you
No one ever stays.
Keep yourself within the dark,
Hide yourself from light,
Keep your secrets to yourself,
Know the life you take.
Pick your victim like your wine,
No one tastes the same,
Share you siren with just yourself,
Then start it all again.
As my life slowly changes
As my heart slowly breaks
When my voice no longer lingers
When there's nothing left to take.
Will you stand beside me
Will you stay my friend
How will you take it
How will you understand
So now I have my ending
So now I can go home
I won't be upset
I won't let you go
You'll stay in my heart
You'll be my life
So soon I'll be leaving
And never thinking twice
But everything there is to know
Will slowly go away
But when that happens
You will know
My death was not in vain.
