and i could do nothing at this point
to change her opinion of me
in her rock and tumble world
i'm as steady as the sea
and when there's no time for us to kill
and when the world stops spinnin still
we'll see we needed one more thing
to let us finally break free
but as of now
we hold on to wrong and right
and still some how
we keep our memories through this cold dark night
and as of now
yeah right this minute everything
this illusion we maintain
to keep our hearts from breaking free
is breaking me.
for years its just been you and I
and i couldnt be happier that way
and the roads we're going down
grew even closer every day
but when you're sitting in my car
and the sky is growing dim
the last few weeks i'm learning slowly
that the journey's gonna end
but as of now
we hold on to wrong and right
and still some how
we keep our memories through this cold dark night
and as of now
yeah right this minute one last thing
this illusion we maintain
to keep our hearts from breaking free
it's breaking me.
Do you write all of your own poetry? It's very beautiful - and original. A seldom thing in this world.
What you have you here are very good song lyrics. I like the firs stanza best; it's the most lyrical, as well as being the most clear. I don't think it's smooth enough for spoken poetry, but like I said, great song lyrics. Were you strumming on a six string?
PS- I'm always here to read you, Jack B. Nibmle.
My attempt at insight - It seems that you are more inspired when just musing than when you actually have a muse. It's nice to see you focus more on the idea than the subject at hand. I like this one very much. Keep it up.
