Hunger


Everything that could happen
All the possibilities
I hate this surrealism 
Hope roaming through my body
Why can’t I just take it at face value?
Why, can't I hear the no?

All I do is keep imagining
His arms, his caress
How our skin would melt together
The rhythm of us
To make him hunger 
So as to make him feel
For he starves in vein

Loose your self control
marvel at my body
The softness of my skin
How can you say no?
Said no?
Don’t you see that this is?
Can't you see what we've done?
But you choose to be blind.
and you chose to say no.

God, it makes me want you more.
Make me feel as though
I’m not enough of your taste
That in all that I’m worth
I’m that risk that you’re not gonna take.

Beginning




There’s no sight beyond
Only that which I lust
My backwards, is forwards
My now, the only
He was the beginning
To be safe, and knowing 
With projection and sight 
But I was only growing
I sought what I seek
I’ve found what I see
Precise in pain
With no suffice to gain
You’ll make it wither
You’ll make it die
Your my only heartless fool
In that which I die
In what you don’t see
The blind that you’ve made 
The treasure that I’ve sought
Is all but to be lost
In the sea of the heart
Which to see in that sight
Is only black and only white.

Between the Bars

Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do 
You won't but you might
 The potential you'll be, that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make

 Drink up with me now
 And forget all about
 The pressure of days, do what I say
 And I'll make you okay
Drive them away 
The image is stuck in your head

People you've been before
 That you don't want around anymore
 That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still 

Drink up baby, look at the stars 
I'll kiss you again between the bars 
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
 Waiting to finally be caught

 Drink up one more time
 And I'll make you mine
 Keep you apart, deep in my heart
 Separate from the rest
 But I like you the best
 Keep the things you forgot

 People you'be been before
 That you don't want around anymore 
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
 I'll keep them still

Lines

Something has changed, something permanent
I no longer feel empty, apathetic and cold
The strength of complete and utter solidarity 
Does not beckon me from depths 
Of the warmth and terror of feeling
Odd that I would manifest 
Into who I am 
Of something resented
With all the being that I was
Little as it emerged
Up from a place of fright
Insecurity, need of over protection
Myself to guard a helpless child
Of my young self
Too innocent, 
Too vulnerable
Incapable to realize
All the actions taken against
I cut, and hid in the depths of myself
A place so far away secure in
The adult unknowing of all in it that hides
Judgement of error keeping in check
Allowing no glimpse to emerge 
By the lines I drew round myself
No one could come in or reach
So little, so unaware 
I did not recognize
The extent of importance 
To the immense energy 
That these lines came drawn
Not till life tripped me over
The bucket of water left out
Now tipped and fell 
Erasing much of the lines
Making path
To see straight forward
A place I thought inanimate
So stood at the existence of my feet
I awoke
With all lines shattered
There dissolving in the water
I stood,
Overwhelmed by the insecurity
Alarmed at the promiscuity
I took arms 
To be my only advocate
Adult and child together
Standing,
With no cause but their own
Standing, 
With no song but one note
Being and existing in constant parallel 
All hell began to break free

Sail

For the past few days I've been listening to this song over and over again. I've become obsessed, at least for the moment. I find this song attractive, and obviously everyone has their own interpretation, but for me it speaks 'this is who I am, this is my love, either take it or leave it.' Sort of like a 'fuck you' but in a nice way. I love you, I'll give you my love, but this is how it comes with all it's imperfections. Not to say I wouldn't be influenced or open to change and growth, but more of I won't change my monumental core values and expressions, cause you say so. 


Lyrics:

This is how I show my love. 
I made it in my mind because 
I blame it on my ADD baby. 

This is how an angel cries 
Blame it on my own sick pride 
Blame it on my ADD baby 

Sail

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself(Chorus: myself)
Blame it on my ADD baby

Maybe I'm a different breed
Maybe I'm not listening
So blame it on my ADD baby 

Sail

Bells

I woke up to alarm bells
Lost in my own bed
Lost in my own head

Control, slipped through my fingers
It was all artificial
A sea of masked memories

I woke up to alarm bells
Lost in my own bed
Lost in my own head

I ran, I ran, I ran
I swear I did!
But my feet held fast
Stuck by the concrete walls
No strength could avail

I woke up to alarm bells
Lost in my own bed
Lost in my own head

Stop the ringing
The constant ringing
That shrieks in my mind
Stop!
Let darkness prevail

I woke up to nothing
The warmth touched my skin
There the bedside table
A bell laid broken
Cracked in two

For a moment
Comfort sought me out
For a moment
No bells were ringing

But only for a moment
It came back
As if a headache
Those miserable bells!
And from where?
For whom did they ring?

A hand pulled me up
From the peace
Where I lay
I sobbed to the sound
That I could not drown

She pulled me up
Hand in hand

Quickly I was taken
Quickly we ran to shelter
Quickly she drowned the ringing
With hot summer air

In the distance it was there
But she held me with care
She surmounted the distance
To create a place of existence

A moment of rest
Eluded to these signs
Consciousness gave way
To the fright they conveyed
These bells were ringing my name
In a sea of Alarm

Rumor Has It


The things that I want. The things that I have. What I’ve paid to try to let this go. I’d fuck you over without blinking, leave your goddam life in the dust. A place of misery where you won’t be found. You made me pay over and over. When I find you, seek you out, there will be nowhere to hide. I know all your secrets because you hid me in your shadow. The things that I have. The things that I want, and the things I’m gonna get. Rumor has it, I'm out for your soul.

Spirited Away

There it is. There you are. My day was brightened by your departure. Now you're back. I thought maybe you were gone for good. But you came back, waltzed right in as if you were comfort. As if I were dependent. You brought the damn clouds with you. I wish you would get out, turn around and walk out. But around your neck and in the palm of your hand, is something I want. Something I feel as if I need. Something that keeps you coming night and day. There you are, standing in my way. There it is wrung from your neck, and dripping from your hand. There it is. There you are.

Lust

I fell out of heaven
To be with you in hell
My sin's not quite seven
Nothing much to tell

Lust I have and crave
A saintly boy I'm not
I'll take it to my grave
Beside it cursed I'll rot

I'll ride these roads alone
Beneath the sulphur sky
Everywhere I roamed
Life's one big lie

When the fireball goes down
Out by LA ways
I come into town
But only for a day

Starving on my knees
I pray for you to understand
The man sure is weak
But lust holds my hand

I struggled and I cried
I pounced with no avail
Least I never lied
Or did the truth derail

-The Raveonettes

Morning

Deep blue sky, why do you hide?
You make me cold
Down to the bone
Shiver beneath my skin
I seek and find
What I cannot hide

Stolen

Tick Tock
Of this clock
Round in circles
I get lost
Shoes were taken
My feet were bare
Breaking mirrors
Broke my stare
Were you angry?
I don't know
Dreadful drowning 
You want me out
Stolen blood
My restless sleep
Desperate seeking
Let me out
Painful burning
My bathroom seat
Tick Tock
Round in circles
I get lost.
