Breathe

This is the way you make me feel;
Every time that you get in my head;
And ever since our bodies first interacted;
I have not not heard a thing that you said;

I cannot help it all;
When you call;
I just fall;
It's this control that you've got over me;

And in my fantasies;
In my mind;
In my dreams;
I can imagine you saying to me;

//Fall deep into my love;
//Sink deep into my passion;
//Cry, slip away all the madness;
//Then baby, breathe, breathe, breathe and I will let you in;

This is the way I could make you feel;
Oh, won't you let me attempt?
I see you're tired, and;
I just want to help you rest;

I see the day's had it's way;
In your face I sense pain;
Although you hide it the best that you can;

Close your eyes;
While I try to find;
The words to make you understand;


//Fall deep into my love;
//Sink deep into my passion;
//Cry, slip away all the madness;
//Then baby, breathe, breathe, breathe and I will let you in;

Baby, breathe;
I will hold you tight;
Whisper your name as the day turns to night;
Demonstrate what I know your heart says;
All it takes is just one breath;
Baby, breathe;

I finally fell;
It was the autumn of my mind;
And I;
Could scarcely tell if it was your fault or mine;
Until finally I;
I did decide;
It was myself only disguised;
That was my hell;
Turned heaven's well;
And I'm here to tell;
I have survived;
Baby, breathe;


//Fall deep into my love;
//Sink deep into my passion;
//Cry, slip away all the madness;
//Then baby, breathe, breathe, breathe and I will let you in;


Starving

Why in the hell can't we just get along?
And tell me;
Why must we treat 'the other' wrong?
We could break through the mysteries;
Subside the miseries;
Rewrite a history of hurt and pain;

But love's forsaken me;
I would give anything;
Not to feel this way, every single day;
Every time we hate;
It just eats us away;

//Love, hope, faith, comfort, silence;
//Inspiration and a common kindness;
//Accomplishment;
//Identity;
//Attention that is paid to me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?

//Wisdom, understanding, conversation;
//Patience, strength, freedom and validation;
//A friendly place to be;
//Divinity;
//Some private time for me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?

You. You were once so hopeful;
Faithful;
Wait we'll be so grateful;
Listen, I know that life is painful;
But it brings me to tears to watch you grow so hateful;

And if you were some anonymous other;
I'd still love you as my brother;
I hope you do so soon discover;
Unnecessary so much to suffer;

So why is it that nothing changes?
Is this it?
All that remains is;
Little shattered pieces of my life, and;
This little tattered peace that still reminds me;
Confines and slowly binds me;

//Love, hope, faith, comfort, silence;
//Inspiration and a common kindness;
//Accomplishment;
//Identity;
//Attention that is paid to me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?

//Wisdom, understanding, conversation;
//Patience, strength, freedom and validation;
//A friendly place to be;
//Divinity;
//Some private time for me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?

My lonely heart, tortured mind; empty eyes;
Splintered vision, hungry soul;
This is the image of a broken man;
Did you really that love was a battle that must be won?
How do you think life's caused?
Thoughts in a rhythm, in a mirror of a man caged by all the little things he saw;

I walk no more into the shadows;
To be food for the negativity that looms all about;
By name I call you out;
Fear, hate and doubt;
These brothers three with close cousin greed;
I will overcome you by my own God-seed;
I'm starving;
But my hunger sets me free;

Sweet release set me free;
It's numbed my mind and it feels like peace;
It's always seemed way to easy;
I dream I achieve all these things;

//Love, hope, faith, comfort, silence;
//Inspiration and a common kindness;
//Accomplishment;
//Identity;
//Attention that is paid to me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?

//Wisdom, understanding, conversation;
//Patience, strength, freedom and validation;
//A friendly place to be;
//Divinity;
//Some private time for me;
//Can't you see I'm starving?



Intriguing to Me

What have I done?
To be deserving of this unselfish love;
You could give anyone?
You choose me;
To share your heart soul;
My world unfolds;
You've got to know;

//I could love you in the daylight, moonlight, sunshine or rain;
//I never thought it'd be so easy;
//Completely intriguing to me;
//I could love you in the daylight, moonlight, sunshine or rain;
//I never thought it'd be so easy;
//Completely intriguing to me;

I see a whole new world with the view you bring;
My eyes suddenly see colors that they've never seen;
I turn around, another door is open to me;
And in my heart I feel your beat, beat, beat;

Take me to the waters;
Wash my sins away;
But all I ever need is for your love to stay;

What you to me;
I can't describe;
I can't describe;
But let me try;

I'll give you all of me, faithfully, honestly, endlessly;
No part of me could ever be less than what you need from me;
It's so intriguing to me;

//I could love you in the daylight, moonlight, sunshine or rain;
//I never thought it'd be so easy;
//Completely intriguing to me;
//I could love you in the daylight, moonlight, sunshine or rain;
//I never thought it'd be so easy;
//Completely intriguing to me;

No Faith

Blank stare;
Sleepy gaze;
Unimpassioned response;
Dropped head;
Busy hands;
Tell me, how much time have I lost?

What did you think I was offering?
You can't possibly be as fake as you seem;

Bridges crossed together;
Somethings I will not ask;
I see you give attention to other people;

//I know you. You've got no faith in me;
//Some things in life are just that easy to see;
//I know you've got many reservations;
//So many hesitations to heed;
//But stand back, watch out, hold on and get ready;
//Because I'm going to make you believe;

We could go so far if you weren't in the way;
And for the promise of 'us' I would carry the pain;
I hope I sit in your stomach for a long, long time;
Like sour milk or rotted meat or anything that reminds;
Not of the past;
But of our future-unwritten;
Because it's truly unwritten;

Unconscious attitude;
Untapped amplitude;
I'm so sick of giving you the reasons;

//I know you. You've got no faith in me;
//Some things in life are just that easy to see;
//I know you've got many reservations;
//So many hesitations to heed;
//But stand back, watch out, hold on and get ready;
//Because I'm going to make you believe;

Dream state;
Please wake up;
Time is late;
Don't wait, love;

I am;
I am a piece of light;
I am the son of life;
I am the seed of Christ;
That means an end to strife;
Witness my self-wrought plight;
Lay down my upturned knife;
I am a heart contrite;
I am a soul in flight;

I am opportunity personified;
I am the hope of man embodied and individually ratified;
How can you stand there saying you're somehow satisfied?
Well I demand more!
Fools and whores is what we bore;
When we settle to crawl;
And we were destined to soar;
But wait, there's more;
