Peaks and Tides

I wait for the sun
with quiet rhymes
like leaves in the wind
we'll sway, dance in time
and slowly i could see the light
that's peeking through
and crawling on the sheets
i turn around
and close my eyes
and listen to the steady beat then slowly drift to sleep
I open my eyes
and see you're here
my skin drunk in warmth
my mind twisted right
if this is what the world had stored
then i would wait
a thousand years or more
to be where there is more to see
where breathes last long
and nothing's right but this, its meant to be
lose sight of peaks and tides
burn down the walls ive grown
we'll turn the stones to gold
and I'll hold your heart in my hands
run back into the time
i wished for sanguine eyes
when you had fixed my sight
and you held my heart in your hands

Go On

what seems unfair is now the norm
ill breathe it in and take the fall
its in the books i havent read
but id rather leave it
than to know for sure
so take my shoes
take my bag
take the clothes
behind my back
ill learn to smile
youll learn to see
what you will never have from me
this is how its supposed to be
so go on
go on
i give it all
yet none's received
a dying love
that's testing me
fleeting days
i feel the speed
im still behind
on my four feet
so take my shoes
take my bag
take the clothes
behind my back
ill learn to smile
youll learn to see
what you will never have from me
this is how its supposed to be
so go on
go on

Cold Water

cold water
i am rolling in the deep
i am losing to the sea
where's the fire i cant breathe
cold water
i will slowly drown and freeze
in the absence of the heat
i am slowly gonna die
cold water
go and make me drink some more
make me perish from inside
i am drying up from all of this
cold water
you had to slow it down
won't you make it swift and quick
i know i ain't gonna die
it's too cold for me
where's the warmth
where's the fire i can feel
now you're gone

Looking For

ive heard you fumbling for control
in late of evenings
and early morns
i tried to ask
i tried to know
what 's left unknown
you couldnt stop
and i couldnt help
i knew in mind
it was your tale to tell
i watched in pain
but ill watch you rise
some things just keeps us blind
keep you blind
keep me blind
words were spent when letters died
without a thought
I knew youd try
is it really hard to look inside
are you afraid of what you hide?
dig in deep
and clench your heart
the bottom end
is where you'll start
and i am here
beside you love
some things just keeps us blind
keep
tell me did you find what you were looking for
did you hold back the tears when you found there's more
buried underneath all the years youve cut so deep
facing all the darkness when youre losing your mind
theres nothing left more but to look for the light
tell me did you find what you were looking for

In Darkness

Hope for the change
the promise of goodbye
it's in darkness that light shines bright
pick on the cracks
take what you like
leave me the courage I had despite
all the darkness, this light shines bright
so toss the coin, and win the bet
there won't be loss in all that's set
look at the stars, look at the sky
yes I am small
but I'm alive
Hold out your thoughts
the devil lives in fear
let him see you
but dont let him near
I've drawn out the lines
crooked and weak
still you could see here
that I did succeed
there is darkness where light shines bright
so toss the coin, and win the bet
there won't be loss in all that's set
look at the stars, look at the sky
yes I am small
but I'm alive
Drink from the loss
of everything you see
there is freedom in all you'll be
so keep the hope
fill it with life
see that there's nothing i wouldnt like
it's in darkness that light shines bright
