A mind swept uneven
Across the hard wooden floor
Sure it's got a roof
and it's got a door
...
Through your kind eyes you see
The tears fall so clearly
and although you try to fight
You can't seem to find the will to see it through
...
Once knew a kid by the name of Rick
No matter what he did, he was called a spic
Not nothin' he could do, not nothin' he could say
Had to walk around with that shame every single day
...
Quivering hands meet and lace to the skin.
Delicate is your palms although nervous with attention.
Time dwindles as the clock spirals in its intervals,
and latched hands make way to ones rest.
...
Your heart is warm but like them all
We fail to precieve that if we let it catch fire
Then we will fall, and be left with the ash,
where our hearts used to be.
...
You hold your chest as you start to cough
You feel the air slowly drain as the need arises
I watch with glazed eyes not knowing what to say
I offer unstable words but I think I go unheard
...
I think it was the realization that I'm no longer alone
That helped me to put down the phone
and say goodbye to my doubt for the very last time
It was a sign that allowed me to see through
...
We made a deal
That we did seal
With a kiss on the lips
and my hands on your hips
...
I saw a dead man walk a lonely mile
To kiss the lips of a hungry crocodile
He once ran on old rusty railroad tracks
Ran faster then the train with the speed he lacks
...
Been grinding my teeth
This pain just wont leave
Like a headache screech
It leaves me on the floor
...
