The Sea and its Shore

In the woods catching leaves
As they fall on your head,
When you feel a little tired,
Curling up in bed,
Seeing a painting so enchanting
You just stand there and stare,
Talking deep to a friend
Emotions laid bare.

Mist on a lake,
One single cloud in the sky,
Storm rolling across the ocean,
The things that make you wonder why,

Somethings are beautiful,
Somethings make you smile,
You are all those things and more
I miss you more than a sea
Could ever miss its shore

Back To Chelsea

It isn't natural for a Chelsea man
To be surrounded by all this sand
To fear the echoes of live rounds
And to never sleep when the sun goes down
So I'm writing you this letter
To say I miss you more than ever
And to promise you this:

When I make it back to Chelsea
I'm gonna take you in my arms
And never let you go
And girl I promise you a kiss
For every day we've missed
Until I make it back to Chelsea

I'll have to say I think we've done some good
If I had to do it all again, I know I would
There's still a few shots every now and then
But they say this war is finally coming to an end
So this might be my final letter
I say the sooner the better
Because I'm ready to come home

She reads his letters everyday,
Then she puts them all away
Next to his medals and his flag,
That she would gladly give back

If it would bring him back to Chelsea
So he could take her in his arms
And never let her go
Cause she's still waiting for a kiss
For every day they've missed
Until he makes it back to Chelsea

Never Mind

Look at you
Look at me
Look at who we could be
I want to know who you are
I want to know what you want
.....From the start

What happens if you turn away?
And everything turns blue and grey?
And I just wished I'd told you "Never mind"
I could tell you now
....But baby never mind

And everytime you look at me
I could go crazy, but I dont
And say it, but I won't
Because I'd rather be alone
...Than lose you

And all I really want is to be next to you
But i'm too tired to fight
And I could tell you all this now
...But baby never mind.

Over time, every day
There's nothing I can do to make it go away
So look at you
And look at me
And think of what we could be
All I really want to say is
"I need you darling"
....But would you understand?

And everytime I look at you
I can hardly say a thing
How can I hold a conversation
When you're taking my breath away?
My head starts to spin
and then it hits me:
....I Love You

And I Don't Want Lose Your Face

I just heard a song just now on the TV
Another girl singing about a boy
She sees his face in every space, in every room
And I know that if I turn around you won't be there
If I close my eyes will you be there?

I've got a picture of you on my wall
And I hope it never falls
And I hope I never lose that feeling
I used to get when you would call
And I pray I never wonder to myself
Who were you? And where are you?
Or if you where ever here at all?

That girl in the song has it so good
I wish I could close my eyes and see you
I wish the sky had your face
And the oceans had your eyes
And the sunset had your lips
And I had you

I don't want to lose your face
And I don't want to wake up one day
And not remember what time erased
And I don't want turn around
Because i'm not scared
Of what love gave me and took away

And I don't want lose your face

Gefallener Engel

Sie tappt alleine durch die Straßen.
Die Nacht ist dunkel, der Wind ist lau.
Wonach sie suchte, das vergaß sie;
Woher sie kommt, weiß sie nicht genau.
Sie trägt ein Kleid aus heller Seide:
Im fahlen Mondlicht wirkt es grau.

Ein gefallener Engel,
Die Flügel sind zu schwer, um aufzustehn.
Sie schließt langsam die Augen,
Um selbst nicht mit anzusehn,
Wie sie unbeachtet immer mehr vergeht.

Sie singt ein Lied von fernen Tagen;
Es hat keine Melodie.
Es gibt Antworten ohne Fragen,
Die keiner versteht, nicht mal sie.
Sie zittert stumm, die Nacht wird kälter:
Ein Schleier des Nichts, der sich um sie zieht.

Ein gefallener Engel,
Die Flügel sind zu schwer, um aufzustehn.
Sie schließt langsam die Augen,
Um selbst nicht mit anzusehn,
Wie sie unbeachtet immer mehr vergeht.

Sie hatte den Nektar des Glücks probiert,
Doch jetzt ist sie nur ein Hauch von Leben,
Der sich in sich selbst verliert.
Es ist, als hätte sie nie existiert.


EIn gefallener Engel,
Die Flügel viel zu schwer, um aufzustehn.
Während sie langsam zu Boden sinkt,
Wird ihr Schatten verweht.
Sie schließt die Augen, damit sie's nicht sieht.

Und das Einzige, das leise in der Nacht verklingt,
Ist ihr einsames Lied... .

Foolish

Temporal as a glass house shattered,
yesterday our love still mattered.
Cobwebs toil as darkness creeps,
sorrow trolls as lost anger seeps.

Truth be known from lies you said,
pierce the heart, run crimson red.
Among passion, unforeseen tears,
comes to light, my greatest fears.

To play the fool, I played it well,
so much in love, I could not tell.
My damaged heart, I so entrusted,
unopened doors, with hinges rusted.

Spiral down, lost loves depression,
your wanton ways, loves obsession.
The cost was deep, it was too high,
my heart bleeds from sad goodbye.

My heart cries out, to understand,
shattered dreams on shifting sand.
For where is love, if not with you,
to ease this pain, what shall I do?

My Knight In Shining Armor?

How can I let you in
When I'm scarred for life,
How can I give u my heart
When its chopped up with a knife

The pieces are broken
And nowhere to be found,
But you say you don't care
And that you will stick around

Some days I know you like me
Others I really don't know,
But overall I've got to say
I can't let you go

My knight in shining armor
On a white horse, with a rose in hand,
You will do anything
At my slightest command

But I back away
And start to wonder why,
I want to run back and hug him
I don't want this to die

So will I give him a chance?
And fall in love once more?
Is he finally it?
The one I have been waiting for?

The Shadows

Shadows mock me from the wall,
the silence makes me want to hide.
There’s no one to save me from the fall
in the dark abyss that lies inside.

Inside of me many monsters dwell,
it is my shape they all form.
I wonder if I entered the very hell,
but this is just a reappearing storm.

Every time, I open a brand new door
it is a different me I see,
It's always one I’ve never seen before,
And one I don’t want to be.

Enchanted

When I first met you
the first thing I noticed were your eyes,
And as you walked up to me,
Looking in me, I was so mesmorized

Our first conversation went so fast
But somehow time felt so slow,
Because nothing else mattered
Like an opening act of a broadway show

It starred your eyes,
Brown, round and fair,
Accented by your smile
So gorgeous I can't compare.

As we sat in our chairs
And talked about so many things
I noticed a smile
And the same views on what life brings

You make a portrait of beauty,
A canvas so stunning,
I can't help but wonder,
What makes you so cunning.

You subdued me at first sight,
I can't help but fight,
These feelings of passion & warmth,
With wonder & delight

The way we look at each other
As if we just know,
That you like me
And I like you

All I know is I was enchanted to meet you



"That night was night was flawless, don't you let it go. I was wonderstruck, dancing all the way home. This is me praying that that was the very first page, not where the story line ends. I'll spend forever wondering if you knew that these were the words I held back as I was leaving too soon: I was enchanted to meet you"

Constancy

The day we met I saw the stars align
And heard a skylark sing about the moon;
His eager lips were sips of vintage wine,
To savour on a winter afternoon.

He painted leaves on every naked tree
And long dead roses bloomed beneath her gaze.
The copper shone despite the verdigris
On ancient roofs that rose above the haze.

And even now his radiance remains,
Like vintage wine he casts away the years.
Still eager lips can kiss away the pains,
His artists eyes disguise impending fears.

From when we met until I have to die
I'll bless the day he taught me how to fly.

My Ending.

The air is pelted out of my lungs,
a hand clamps over my mouth,
nails dig into my cheek.

I'm pulled back,
screams muffled,
heart pounding.

Like ice-cubes against my neck,
razor scrapes against my skin,
fucking stings!

A deep rumbling sound.
Laughter?
Can it really be laughter?

Pressed against a wall,
the stone so cold it aches,
and it scrapes at my skin.

I try to struggle,
it crushes me,
I'm useless.

My head is snapped back,
A black eye in a bed of ivory flesh,
the last thing I see.

Fire explodes along my neck,
I feel myself go limp,
Everything is spinning.

My body is empty and frozen,
...
Even before I hit the ground.

Love Pains

Breathing in
has started feeling like a sin
letting it out
leaves me filled with doubt

laying alone at night
eyes closed, no sight
i wonder if he knew
what i would do
for as long as my hearts in two

all the blood that will be spilled
he's the one who's billed
and i'm still here alone
with no one to call my own

i let it build up more and more
then when it gets to the point that i can not ignore
i resort to my sharp, thin, silver friend
from beginning to end
he makes a clean slice
then again twice

to my friends i'm myself again
but really i'm just waiting for it to begin
the pains of an open wound
ones that take to much time to consume

Only It's Different...

I look at you one last time
Hoping to feel something inside
Instead I'm empty with a broken heart
Only wishing we could go back to the start

To when it was just me and you
And being in love was all we knew
But then we changed
Our love for each other, rearranged

But still we kept clinging on
Refusing to believe our love was gone
Yet still we continued to fall apart
Leaving us both with a broken heart

And now you're back after so long
My biggest fear? Loving you again
I need you to go, I need you to leave
But still I want you next to me

I look for the answers in your eyes
All I can see is your past lies
I ask you to leave, our memories too strong
Strangely, You insist I've led you on

You leave my thoughts in disarray
And as you turn to walk away
I look at you for the very last time
Only this time it's different...


...I feel nothing inside
