I don't want to get attached
Just to let go, just to watch it fall
But those eyes, they have me mesmerized
Where they take me I'll never understand, a world all on it's own
The beat of your heart is my new song
I don't want to fall for you
Just to fall on my face again
But something tells me you'll catch me before my feet ever leave the ground
I don't want to play in the water and get in too deep
But you are pulling me in
And I just can't compete with the force of your gravity
So if I say yes
Will I feel remorse
You are my sweet taste of sin
Just one touch will never be enough
Just something about you has me drawn in
Would you take me by the hand?
But I don't want to get attached
Just to let go, just to watch it fall

As She Spread Her Wings
Look at this old photograph
And memories come back
You have always been beautiful
Too think you are dressed in white
More beautiful than before
Makes it that much harder to believe
Just moments ago it seems as if you were here but
Who knew when they said "it could be gone in a blink of an eye" it could be so true, that it would be you
As we search for words behind our tears
You look down on us
Flying with all the angels
Bowing down at God's feet
And we try to find the breath to speak
It's so hard to believe you're not here
In this silence we can almost hear you sing
Feeling so numb
Our hearts break
As we think of that sweet smile
It’s just hard to see the fairness in it all
Look at this old photograph
And know the memories will always last
You may not be on earth but you are in our hearts
And you will live forever their

Washed Away
Another old one, I don't know if it is up here already but w/e
Watch the rain roll off the window
Wash off what you just saw
A small swift move
And it's all gone
Wipe off the fog
It all comes undone
Like a ribbon in the wind
You'll never see it again
Close your eyes
Like a movie it plays
A cut in the film
Now it will never be the same
Listen to the rain hit the roof
Sounds like a off beat heart
Wait for the lighting
So just for a second you're not in the dark

A Hero
Risk your life
To save one like mine
Reach out your hand
To those in need
Give the shirt off your back
Jump in the line of fire
Fight for people you do not know
Even the undeserving
Run into that burning house
Knowing you may never come back
Risk your life
To save one like mine
With no questions asked
Brave men and women
Who live as a sacrifice
A true hero
Who will always have our backs

I Really Don't Know....
Just a few dif. ones I thought sounded cool together....
Read all together
Lock me up
Throw out the key
Let my rot in disparity
No pain no gain
That's what they say
Speak your words
You'll die in vain
Like a dam slowly cracking
Soon it will break
Flooding everything
So lock me up
Throw out the key
Let my rot in disparity
Drowning in your words
Surrounding me
For all of eternity
You spit your words out
With no effort
Caring not of who you hurt
Like a rich man
You take but do not give
Piece by piece
You rip it apart
And like paper, once it's been crumpled
It can never be perfect again
Your words are like dull knives
Don't cut deep
But leaving a sharp
Agonizing pain
My fantasies and dreams are two different things
But consume all the same
Life and death
Love and hate
A beautiful catastrophe
Lies mixed with the truth
Me, and you
Read all together
Lock me up
Throw out the key
Let my rot in disparity
No pain no gain
That's what they say

Sweet Taste Of Sin
Your touch sends a rush
A rush that I lust
I want more, just can't get enough
Hold myself back
Trying so hard
You are a sin that digs deep into my skin

Missing
Each star I tear off the wall,
Is a memory I let fall.
As I promise myself I'll be okay,
holding back tears that could flood the earth on its sunniest day
Everything falls, crashes to the floor like a priceless vase
Knocked over by child's play.
Pieces, all over the place
Not all kings men
Nor all the kings horses
Will be able to put it back together again
Sweep up the mess
Throw it all away
Into the sea of dead memories
Watch it wash away
Because not even forever can live on past the end
Like darkness flees from light
My demons consume my dreams
Like a freak train on the run
Now, a storm has begun

A Life Taken
It's a little old but here it is...
His last words my name
Spoken so soft and sweet
My heart melted, aces
A pain like no other,
It hurts so much I can't feel it
Empty is the only feeling I seem to have left,
Though it's not really a feeling at all
His last words my name
On the weary night
The knife so sharp
The air so cold
His blood warm
My tears wet, like rain

Past Forever
To say I love you is forever
And forever can never be
Because even forever has an end
And my love for you runs past forever into eternity
