Learning To Be Lonely

And I try to get the record straight
The difference between love and hate
Can't love another till you hate yourself
Can't hate another till love is on the shelf
And I'm learning to be lonely
Take what's mine some call it greed
Maybe it's just what I need
Maybe I need time alone
To love myself to build a home
Foundation to be misunderstood
Slowly grasp adulthood
And I'm learning to be lonely
It's just not between the sheets
Desires fill my every need
I understand that I'm still young
And in due time this love will come
Until then please understand
I'm not sure how to be my own man
And I'm learning to be lonely
But my minds fucked and confused
And maybe slightly bruised

I hate to see, the look in your eyes
When you find out that the big surprise
Is that I'm not coming home,
And I haven't been alone
It's hard to see, you staring through me
Our love was lost and our matrimony
wasn't meant to be
No, not for you and me
At the
Heartbreak Hotel
Things aren't going so swell
At the heartbreak hotel
Coming home to be alone
Your name pops up on my phone
Yeah this shit sucks
So does your shit luck
Yeah I can't help the way it went
I checked in early and went to bed
But not to sleep
No I never sleep
At the
Heartbreak Hotel
Things aren't going so swell
At the heartbreak hotel

Paris

Take a picture from your 14th floor window
A picture that I shouldn't keep
Send a letter to an old school mailbox
The rain made it hard to read
Ink soaked fingers in Paris
You always said you'd see the world
instead of taking me with you
you left me here in my peril
You said darling we're just not meant to be
Stay back here while I cross the sea
And all my dreams are filled with the
Illusion of hope
Maybe someday you'll come back home
And I'll no longer be alone
But until that day you'll be my Paris runaway
Darling I never meant to hurt us
Glass homes we've shattered into
Two pieces divided unevenly
So I'll just give my half to you
Spend my nights roaming cities
Find darkened allies at night
Wondering if it will get better
Or if in the end I'll be alright
You said darling we're just not meant to be
Stay back here while I cross the sea
And all my dreams are filled with the
Illusion of hope
Maybe someday you'll come back home
And I'll no longer be alone
But until that day you'll be my Paris runaway

Ghosts

Our Ghosts are brought together
In the loss of our minds
And of our souls
Leave us behind
Brisk wind of coming weather
Death never seemed so beautiful before
Till you showed me the door
Colours on the ground as I lay silent
Scarves are wrapped so tight to keep us warm
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
Let me soak in yours till the end of our time
Oh let me soak in yours
Till the end of our time
Deep cuts from verbal daggers
visions of our hands held stagger
in and out, of my conscious mind
Train tracks I lay to test the
Will of our so called God
Who can decide?
If you live or if you die
Colours on the ground as I lay silent
Scarves are wrapped so tight to keep us warm
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
Let me soak in yours till the end of our time
Oh let me soak in yours
Till the end of our time

When I Wake Up
04:36
|
|

The sun rises up
The moon crashes down
You look for the face
You listen for the sound
But where does it go?
It's nowhere around
Love is the answer
Love is the plan
It blows through the wind
Through the palm of your hands
And soon it runs out, like a wave over sand
When I wake up
I want you there
When I fall asleep
When you're gone away
I've got you in a special place
When you're gone you can't be replaced
It sounds so cliche
The things that we say
To express ourselves
And the points that we make
Even though we don't
Let it all out
Love is the answer
Love is the pain
It blows through the wind
It leaves behind a stain
And soon it runs out
Like a run away train
There's no going back
When I wake up
I want you there
When I fall asleep
When you're gone away
I've got you in a special place
When you're gone you can't be replaced
