i've been down this road of regret. / i know where it goes. / precisely where it takes me. / i know where it won't. / i see this road is long and thin. / the exits, just as dark. / it won't bring me back to life. / and it won't take me home. // dirt roads seem so long. / highways built of stone. / alleys shined with chrome. / still don't take me home. // i've been throught this vale of sorrow. / you know how it goes. / up and down, i sleep, i won't. / stay awake with hope. / an animal masked in the dark. / it looks ino your soul. / still won't bring me back to life. / and it can't take me home.

a man with silvered arms. who adds to my pain? / a man with black coat on. who takes it away? / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. / a man with no remorse. for what he gains. / dark brown and sweet with sex. take over my brain. / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. // black lights that make me feel alone or at peace. / white flash that makes me seem at war and insane. // a man that folds with force. i think it strange. / a man that takes me down with only his name. / a man that i see, still, but only at range. / a man that holds me sick, and won't disengage. / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. / black coat, white arm. / red coat, grey arm. // black lights that make me feel alone or at peace. / white flash that makes me seem at war and insane.

catharsis 04:51
come share my sorrow. / come, sit on my bed. / come taste my misery. / with one single kiss. / come see the ceiling. / thats over my head. / this soulless longing. / won't stop at your lips. // reword my inner sonnets. / replace the me i've shown. / forced out with hidden secrets. / come, let my body know. // come swim in visions. / come, lie on my bed. / rework the fealty i feel with. / the taste of your kiss. / come sense the pathos. / come, bound by a thread. / erode the pain inside me with. / these ropes on your wrists. // reword my inner sonnets. / replace the me i've shown. / forced out with hidden secrets. / come, let my body know.

will any of this matter...in a thousand years? / already fading from my thoughts, this listlessness and fear. / can my actions hurt me...in a thousand years? / will i regret the blood that i seek if i can see it near? // a thousand times around the world for several thousand years. / men repeat these tales i tell, a sad, sick chorus reels. / a thousand times around the world for several thousand years. / men will share this pain i feel and make it dissapear. // will me dreams still bother me...in a thousand years? / memories change frequency as these thoughts come clear. / will my course stand stable...in a thousand years? / already seems, it dissipates. has it been a thousand years? // a thousand times around the world for several thousand years. / men repeat these tales i tell, a sad, sick chorus reels. / a thousand times around the world for several thousand years. / men will share this pain i feel and make it dissapear.

inch 04:57
your fingers around my neck. / pressing in. taking me. / within an inch of my life. / you could take me away. / make it end. / you don't, you tease me. / holding me one inch away. // with one deep breath, release a kiss. / new love i'm not afraid. / i need you here, you love me here. / one inch away. // i feel the power. // you have over my body. do. / what you will with me. / push me closer. take me in. / one inch away. / hold me there, keep me here. / 'til you breathe my life back in. // cold rush of pain, my life escapes. / new love i'm not afraid. / you need me here, i love you here. / one inch away.

crush 04:29
i feel like i'm in high school again / whenever you're around. / i feel it in my stomach / whenever you come around. / my eyes afraid to see your face, / afraid i won't let go. / my hands afraid to touch your skin / afraid i won't let go. // i think that i'll let it take me over / let in my wish of starting over. / i hope that you'll let me get to know you. / i just want to be with you. / i hope that you'll let it take you over. / i hope that you'll know i've started over. / i wish that you'd let me get to know you. / i just want to be with you. // i'm so scared to kiss you again / but i just want it more. / and i just want to hold you again / and never let you go. / it feels like i'm in high school again / let your love take hold. / i fell like days that i had missed / return with so much hope. // i think that i'll let it take me over / let in my wish of starting over. / i hope that you'll let me get to know you. / i just want to be with you. / i hope that you'll let it take you over. / i hope that you'll know i've started over. / i wish that you'd let me get to know you. / i just want to be with you.
