For the Moment.

It's a quarter past 1
The room's spinning, grabbing you up like this is dangerous
The last time in a while for us to be so serial,
Hold on, we're already charged, guilty is our verdict
Why's my keys, cell, your number
On the floor, where's that party at, babe?
Wish I could stop my p-p-p-playful way,
Play it once, I'll play you twice

Just make the ground shake, dee jay
Let's feel this wave crash over me
Just let it out tonight
Yeah we'll be fine

You drop that bottle, splashing your dress
That girl is swimming in the empty bathtub, what,
Tangle me up right in your long hair
I won't resist
That girl was in my arms last night, sorry I
Forgot to call you back, my mind was
D-d-d-dizzy
(Take it slow)

Take us to the floor, hold my drink dear
I'm about to break you down, no need for tears
Concentrate, dance, spin that record babe
Hold this, we'll be alright, shake

Let's dance and pretend this is the last day to exist
Pretend this sexual tension between us will
Cease and desist, yeah
Hold on tight, you see girl, I'm no player
Even if ten minutes from now, I'll see you later

Just make the ground shake, dee jay
Let's feel this wave crash over me
Just let it out tonight
Yeah we'll be alright

'Cause you're a criminal as long as your mine

Speak softly.
Tread through my head loudly.

Falling leaves.

The leaves shiver and shake,
Rattling together.
They flutter gracefully, soaring, catching an updraft,
Before gently grazing the cold, hard ground.
What strikes me the most, is how they leave their branches
To fall.
Just like I fall, fall,
Falling
For you.

Writing the end

This wasn't the shit I signed up for when we went out
when I walk in, let's grab those cubes and throw them in a glass
don't stop, make it rock,
feel this, rush this pulse,
because there's no fear in the world that can separate us
especially when your mouth is around that bottle of Jack
don't stop, make it rock
tonight we're going to not fight, play these games
dig your three inch heels into the carpet
don't stop, make it rock
push me down, away, shit we can do this any day
don't need to fight, why make it right when we can drink all night?
No care in the world when you're here
we've got more class than the Queen on acid
crack, crack, crack, you hear that?
it's the sound of us breaking apart,
foundations cracking

pieces of our puzzle.

This has got to be over my head
everyone knows when you can't keep up to expectations
family pressures, alcohol induced seizures, failing exam marks
constant sickness, your vanity greater than mine, congratulations
girls that can't and won't put up with the disengaging of my heart
this can't be a change from the start.

It was the beginning of how things always were,
let's now reflect and allow our minds to wander
it's the teas on a warm evening.
its the hugs that make me feel that I matter.
its the dinner dates and drives, drive-thru's and dancing.
in the laughter in their eyes that can melt a coal heart.
movie nights while holding hands.
guitar strings ringing at 3 am.

You know what's the craziest feeling? No matter what happens I'm here for that someone.

I guess through metaphors, I am trying to tell someone I love them.
without the pieces, the puzzle is just...pieces.
and would you believe it? I feel complete.
life is too short to always be rushing us through.

Speaking from the other side of the heart

Every feeling that we get
When you're home alone, with your worst thoughts on your mind
When you can't miss anyone anymore
And when your thoughts can't seem to look up
After every hit we take
Every personal insult we laugh off and try to shake
The very people you smile at, but wish left your life
They hurt

This isn't supposed to be pretty or creative writing
It's simply powerful and expresses the bitterness we feel
You know that crazy feeling that just builds and builds
That gives you a rush of pure anxiety and is deep within you
The one where you want to lash out because of the hurt they caused you
I know that feeling, we all have that feeling
Why don't we let our thoughts for once, have meaning?
You hurt.

Forgetting how good I've got it

Actions speak louder than words. Destiny; you forgot about me.
Predictable? All my vanity has been lost.
I want to make you feel all right, hold you through the dark tonight.
Opinionated point of view, you live to push me away from you.
I want to make it feel all right.
The end of the world looks just like the beginning.
