i know your eyes
better then i know my own
i've stared at these
memories for so long
my face has changed
you're still the same
that's what i find
in this brand new day
meanwhile..
well, meanwhile..
this earth altered
crumbled before
the altar
the don, the pope and the slaughter
this is the last day
i'll look to you
i've got much more
discovering to do
and part of love is
discovering something new
i can't stop the world,
anymore
you're love won't die
and it won't live
i can't stop the bleeding
without salting it
and i can't add more salt to these wounds
and i can't add more salt to these ruins
never is where we begin
forever is where we end
nothing lasts
quite like what's buried in the past
quite like what's buried under the past
vehicles are broken
outside the cemetary
so i take a stroll
down a lane called memory
ah...
could ressurrect your spirit
and crucify
laugh in your face
and you'd wish i'd die
but i can't hurt you (like i could once)
why do you hurt yourself, and both of us?
i've tried to run before
mostly i've tried to walk
i tried and tried and
blah blah blah
you know i tried some more
despite all those effortless words
it's not for lack of effort,
i've given so much
i can't stop the world,
anymore
it's not for lack of effort,
i've given so much
i can't stop the world,
anymore
you're love won't die
and it won't live
i can't stop the bleeding
without salting it
and i can't add more salt to these wounds
and i can't add more salt to these ruins
well, i woke this morning
eh, i woke this morning
feeling like life had given it all up
for no purpose at all sweetheart
and i woke this morning
caught my eyes in my glance
my face has changed
you're still the same.
.....fuck;..
it's not you i despise,
just the way you treat me and life
i tried to love you,
but i'm out of reasons to find
and you're not giving..
..giving it any mind
i didn't want to wait so long
i figured i'd let go
but somehow you held on
still all that i've grasped has no arms
you have no heart.
you want to hurt me
that's what i see
through the lense of what's left
of this broken down vision
you say that you're open
now you'll be open
but you shut me out
you shut me down
this motors running,
it's run out of time
vehicles are broken
i'm walking away
(i've walked away)
a seal on a great wine
you'll never taste
cause i won't be bitter
after this sentence.
behind your dark matter
is sparkling energy
if you don't close the curtain
before the dawning of time
you're beautiful
you're bountiful
you're the best kept secret
even from yourself.
