To Thin Air

@eva-nge-line

They come in droves
And I walk alone
I gave her back her coat
A crow looks upon his post as she walks home alone
He flies away as if he knows something that I don't
Back and forth, she lies again
She takes off her dress
And undoes her hair
And sits on the couch
And tells me to come
And she says in vain

The bleeding makes it obvious I don't fit in your slipper
I fall right back into your arms as my whole body quivers in the rain
Who am I to say?
A deer goes by, a lion roars, the rabbit is a skipper
I carry on, I sulk inside, or I allow my nights to turn to gray
I'd take it all away
To be your Cinderella

It comes and goes
You feel it in your core and then it creeps up to your muscle through the bone
Bleed along to the sound
Tap your sparkling red shoes, 1, 2, 3, but no home could be found
Then again
Drown your hands in sugar soap
And rub it all in 'till your knuckles turn red, the pain grows
You keep on doing it
Doesn't it feel good?

The bleeding makes it obvious I don't fit in your slipper
I fall right back into your arms as my whole body quivers in the rain
Who am I to say?
A deer goes by, a lion roars, the rabbit is a skipper
I carry on, I sulk inside, or I allow my nights to turn to gray
I'd take it all away
To be your Cinderella

Your Cinderella (feat. Evangeline)

Your Cinderella (feat. evangeline)

They walked off
A fresh grin awaits
"Those sissies don't have what it takes"

They tell the story
Of the boy who washed away
I come back to the water where they sinned
They tuned the station
To Chuckahomo Bridge

Castaway
You can't choose your fate
The sirens are miles away

They threw him over
The boy who washed away
I look upon the one who couldn't swim
They'll sing for miles
Of Chuckahomo Bridge

Chuckahomo Bridge

Am I a bother?
A distraction?
From your closet
Beyond forgiveness?
So picture perfect
Upon the window
I call for you
Through the crescendo

Revolving doors fly
Beyond the surface
I wish you'd tell me if I was worthless
I trace your signal
Radio silence
Without a shadow of a doubt, I've become mindless

And so, I try and try again
I wonder where I can begin
When I soon find the words, my stomach starts to twirl
I look upon the other side
I wonder if it's worth the time
Who knows if Mark and Maria saw the world?

Am I a bother?
A distraction?
From your closet
Beyond forgiveness?
So picture perfect
Upon the window
I call for you
Through the crescendo

Watching birds glide
By the furnace
I watch the clock tick
Somehow it turns left
Am I falling in reverse?
Or am I struggling to defer
The truth that lies beyond the gate through which you left

And so, I try and try again
I wonder where I can begin
When I soon find the words, my stomach starts to twirl
I look upon the other side
I wonder if it's worth the time
Who knows if Mark and Maria saw the world?

Mark and Maria

@monikrr

Creek down below
Sink your words before the tide
Stand by the pier
Boats glide along the lone shoreline
I find the pieces of my heart in July
I don't understand
Why wasn't I there
When you said goodbye

I can't let you go, brown eyes
There's a spot inside my heart
Where the flower's yet to die
Catch a glimpse upon the scars
Rip it up for your own sake
I am just your worst mistake
As the garden fades to black
You should go and run away

You should go and run away
(Do re mi so ti so mi re)
You should go and run away
(Do re mi so ti so mi re)
Oh

I'm falling for you in zero gravity
You hold my neck against the tree
Shirt stained mahogany
Hung upside down, catch up before I
Leave behind the places I can't go
The people left buried in snow
Oh, darling, please don't let me go
(Please don't let me go)

I can't let you go, brown eyes
There's a spot inside my heart
Where the flower's yet to die
Catch a glimpse upon the scars
Rip it up for your own sake
I am just your worst mistake
As the garden fades to black
You should go and run away

I won't let it die in vain, vain
I won't let it die in vain
