All To My Head-t.v

Is this happenin'
Am I really feelin' pretty in my own skin?
I will let this all go to my head
Another day I might regret this
But tomorrow I could be dead

There's this photograph of a neon sign
It reads books & it smells like the eastern air
With a raven nearby
My hand on your thigh
We search the night for some comfort
Most nights I'm spiralin'about
The words they never seem to matter much
Till you speak them aloud

If I Could...
02:29
|
|
||
If I could...
If I could be anywhere
I'd wanna be with you
Doesn't matter what we do
As long as I've got you
Recently I've been missin' you more than usual
I'm not sure I can make it through this harsh world alone
& If I could
If I could feel anythin'
I'd wanna feel your lips against mine
If I could hold her
Well I'd never let her go
Recently I've been missin' you more than usual
I know I can't make it through this harsh world alone

On an endless search for a lover so kind
I've maimed myself
Searchin'between couches, cushions & covers
For a kiss divine
I swear I've found some layin'about before
|

Let me take you for a walk
Down to the garden just around the bend
& let's sing a waltz
"Out of nowhere out of our thoughts"
Let me take you for a walk
All things divine & fine
Age like you a very fine wine
If time be kind & you remain mine
I promise to always be honest & on time
Let me take you
& if time be unkind
& all things divine they fade from my mind
Like your smile or the colour of your eyes
& you are no longer mine
& you are no longer mine
& I hope you remember our waltz
& I hope you still
Hum our waltz

S.O.A.H

|

It is hard when you are on both ends of the blade
It is just hard
The days go on though
With but a faint echo of the goodwill that was bid yesterday
That fateful day when we spared one another's hearts

there are but frantic
scattered moments
where i feel inclined
to tell you
what's goin'on
inside my mind
when i taste your porcelain
the art you call skin
i am lost-deep within
i become translucent
you can see right through me
i put no fight up
oh this is what you paid for
i am learnin'to be
what i've yearned for
a sweet & secure dove
a better person
in a new love
with you
oh
with you

Temptress

|

Cause you're my raven-haired temptress
My seamstress of fate
& there is no great escape to be made
I am at my end with love
& I don't think
No, I can muster another one
Lovin'you is like livin'under a gun
Never know when to run
Cause you're my raven-haired temptress
My seamstress of fate
& she shot me down
She shot me down
My raven-haired temptress
There is no great escape

Capturin'
01:00
|
|
||
I am capturin'myself
Through smoke & alcohol
In every breath & sip I take
I'm loosin' faith
Loosin'face
My skin dries out
& I cry out

where-do-we-go?
01:45
|
|
||
When the final curtain closes where do we go?
Oh no one knows
But your friends all came to your show
You kept them around to be the things that you couldn't be you lived vicariously
And when the warm autumn fades
Where do you leave to?
Oh no one knows
What do you long for?
The mornin'dew upon your skin
The crisp night air goin'through your hair
Or the taste of blood in your mouth after a fight
Where do we go?

I've been thinkin'of what I should say & how for over a day now
Forgot my own self-made vows
Left to be dower & grey
I take myself down a shade
See the shadows as they lay across my face
Time is takin'place
A space in which I am sinkin'in
Sinkin'in
