Verse 1:
I carefully craft an image of you
In my mind.
But, sometimes, the reality does not match
The illusion in our dreams.
This is not how it should end
But, how it should begin.
Tell me: where do we go from here?
Chorus:
I am getting over you.
Though, the pace was slow.
I never needed to test my feelings for you.
But, you, you felt the need to test the waters.
Now, I’m left with nothing but our memories.
You got me in unbound memories.
You shattered my soul and spirit.
Verse 2:
Though, I don’t need to know your sins.
You will be a scarlet letter for the world to see.
Your past continues to haunt you.
Christ cannot save you from your sins.
You confessed your sins to me.
You dragged me along yet
Always looked for someone better.
Bridge:
If only you could see
That I know your story
Better than anyone,
We could become each other’s everything.
Though, I don’t know what lies ahead,
I’ll follow you wherever you will go.
Our lives are caged in together.
Falsehoods and lies
Truth in disguise
Whispers comprise
A doubt in my heart
Blinding my eyes
Sorrow and sighs
Darkness will rise
My world falls apart
Sweet Amor, when our love is never done;
Appearing to me when I did call.
Please tell me you never be gone,
Don't break my heart at all...
These fearful nightmares,
The road to terror and beyond.
Loving your most precious words,
That made us twain, that made us One.
Soomin and Ryan forever and ever
You'll never ever truly see a couple any better
Both koreans and a little french too
They stick together like monkey glue
At this time, I wish them farewell.
Ryan doesn't have time for me anymore
Oh well.
Peace
The feeling of rest
After a hard day's work
The weightlessness of relaxation
Finally
Serenity
No reason to fear
No longer any worries
My mind is happily blank
White like new-fallen snow
While I sit by the fireplace
On a Christmas morning
Calm
For my spirit is calm
My soul no longer pains me
I'll soon fall asleep
To waking dreams
And an eternity
Of sunrises
For at the bottom of my heart;
The dregs of my emotions lie
I'd given all to you
And you drank without satisfaction
I filled your glass over and over again
Yet you could not be content
I had nothing left to give
And then, like so many before
I was thrown aside
Cast out like a leper
But the thing about barrels
Is that they can be refilled
And someone wanted me to be filled
They poured their heart and soul into me
They completed me until I overflowed
They granted me a purpose, and a meaning
So now as I look upon you
Inebriated in your unfulfilled grief
Wasted in your past iniquity
I pity you
For we cannot be connoisseurs only
But we must be barrels as well
For we cannot drink alone
But must be drunken from again
Men of Iron, Men of Smoke
Red hands hidden in their cloak
Helter Skelter in their hearts
Silence people, so they start
End beginnings, death of life
Pleasured pain, calming strife
All their “truth,” is but lies
Hide the demons in their eyes
Propaganda lead the people
Separate the laws and steeple
All who speak against them die
Total darkness soon is nigh
All of those who live are dead
In a white world made of red
Let me take you
In your mind's true eye
To blue-green pastures
Ocean-like waves of grass
Flowing gently over hill and dale
The sun gently shining
Partially cloaked behind the clouds
The crickets singing to each other
Fall is soon at hand
But for now we enjoy
Those few last days of summer
And as we lay on the warm earth
We'll daydream at how fast
The year has gone already
Silent time is passing
Pleasant melodies fall upon my ear
Swinging, swooning,
Waltzing melodrama
Imprinting their faerie-like steps
Deep into my mind
I am lost
In a tidal wave of euphony
An effervescent motif
Returns like starlight after sundown
There is no time
For eternity sits in this moment
There is no war
For my heart is stilled
My soul is quiet
I am finally at peace
