oh tell me
have i lost another
i see the dirt in your eyes
i see it wash away in my mind
i see your mind wash away
pour down
wash you out
if the sun melts
could you stay so still
in the never ending shade
i watch you fade away
and i have a question
do you see the angel watching over?
can you feel the devil pull you under?

do you remember me?
that's ok if you don't
i tried to write a song for you
about a hundred thousand times
it always seemed so subtle
i guess you'd done it before
but now there's a great big puddle
right under me on the floor
it's not like you never vanished before
and i wish i'd known the extent of your pain
i tried to be poetic, or would i rather just honesty
oh honestly
apparently you died
apparently you're somewhere
dying in an alleyway
crying for it anyway
i'd try to find you again
but now i'm in a different city
i know the final truth, i've known for a while
and i wish you'd known the extent of my pain

Angels

the lights that guide the way home
shine for me and me alone
the cold air that burns the skin
it draws out what sits within
the fiery notions of the start
burn bright and weary in my heart
the frightening plight of the future
takes me, won't take me for a loser now
if i stop to take a breath
can i count the time that i have left?
mum and dad, they would be proud
i'm still their boy but i've been around
the deliverance of fate is unfair
i can't look away from its unholy stare
and where is the god when i am lost
how many angels will it cost?

Only Knew Me Well

you finally found the courage
not that that's all there is to it
and you said i'm sorry
for losing so bad, it hurts
it hurts a lot
i know and i'm sorry too that it hurts for you
you only knew me as a grommet
you never knew me as a poet
i'd look you in the eye
but you might as well be rotten
well maybe you are
i never saw it, i only heard about it
but it still rings truer than true
the dismal, the pitiful, the very bottom of your veins
you never came back
you just fucked off

To Be Found

stars litter it all
like glitter on the floor
lie on the ground
with your head nowhere to be found
