hope's_last_lie
continuous ache in my mind's eye i am always walking away
see every love that ended with misery
every pinprick that time should've long since erased
no one is replaced or forgotten in my vast recollection
it's all filed away under "hope's last lie"
as in- the last time that hope is allowed to slip by unnoticed
(and undenied)
i've got a pocketful of useless lessons decaying to dust and
blowing away on the wind just like i wish i could
like i know i must
gotta get the hell out of here without that damning look behind
but i've got memories on rewind and i know absolutely
that i'm running on borrowed time and i will be back again
to relive this tragedy once more, to rebegin this play
knowing well the end, but expecting a difference anyway
the definition of insanity, alive beneath a haggard smile
its taken me awhile to think i was this strong
and so long to not show any of these scars
i am tired of wishing on burned out stars and lasting love
when will it be enough to just lay my head down
and never find the stubbornness to get back up
another ache has been filed in that otherwise barren hall
you took your steel strung hands to me
so why am i still waiting for your call?

wicker man "no, really, i'll be OK"

THAT is hope's last lie.

we've said it before because we wanted to believe it and because we didn't want anyone to know we were hurting worse than we were showing outwardly

Beyond Repair

a cycle is a circle of time
the snake devouring its own tail
infinity
eternity
i gave up the controls to this life a long time ago
i am merely sitting behind the wheel
letting the car go where it may
keeping a heavy foot on the gas
praying for a quick death.
no, control is merely an illusion.
no man or woman may have it completely.
i do not wish for it anymore,
it is not a concept i even comprehend...
life will get better
life will get worse
these things happen
oh, dear
and have i let friendships die?
i have.
with no regret, and you begin to hate
lose faith
turn your face from this dying ember
but you remember me still.
forget my breath
i am nothing
nothing to mourn or miss
this is my life
this is your pain
i will not let you watch me fail
i am shamed enough, hiding from the world
let me destroy my life alone
let me be watch it all fall down while i stand in silent wonder
breath caught in my breast
heart beating as if it might escape its cage
i know where i am headed
eyes open wide, maybe even a little light inside
this is my life.

onemorebumpintheroad i'm looking back on a past that i can't walk away from
god knows how i've tried
and i've been waiting so long to say something meaningful
but all that escapes my lips are sighs
i'm so tired of lies and petty crimes against my spirit
but nobody hears my cries anymore
i'm just praying for something more this time
a little light where only darkness could survive
should i run away from this one or take the inevitable heartache in stride
i want so much to have love living in my soul again
i can't remember when i last felt it's breath inside of me
is this what i seek or am i being naive
how many stars have to burn out in my little universe
before i finally get the course right
i feel so much like i'm navigating blind
and i can't see your face to guide me
i wish i could know that when you're on the outside you'll feel the same because you're the first to make me alive in awhile
i really do want to believe your smile but my judgement is clouded by pain
it would be such a relief to just hold you again
to look into your eyes without that barrier between us and
spin our own universe from the remains of mine
