#5 ROCK / INDIE / ALT - 2

Shine so bright:
a golden halo of fireflies. in a way it was much too close. i wish i could have told you then (how i feel). we sit together in darkness staring up at the sky and the stars shine so bright. i have these dreams where i know exactly what to say and you tell me you forgive me. it's going to be alright this time. if i could i would wall my ears so they hear nothing. i would have covered my eyes. if i could. and your eyes they shine so bright. in your eyes i see the truth. in your words i hear the truth.

Portrait:
angel closes her eyes and i'm swept away. the spark of life has become a dying flicker of hope. she said she sang to me a warning of fallen times. but i would not hear. a crumbling image of a day gone by. a tear of blood coming from sealed wound. and the sound as it rang off of the porcelain was like church bells. an angel closes her eyes for what may be the last time and it's all been seen before. but the difference is that i'm scared. the difference is that i'm scared. it has been a trying summer for us all and it seems to be reflected in the tone.

Eviction Notice

someday i’ll play this song in a stadium 
lyrics:
time 
is moving out of course
why? (are you so out of reach)
Now there is nothing left 
so i can’t have peace of mind but at least i wont be dead 
in the end i trusted you now there is nothing left 

is it easier just to start again? 
living everyday, don’t pretend 

i see you tell all your other friends 
the ones that will never know my name 
it doesn’t matter, i could say anything 
and what difference does it make?
now you should be holding me 
now you should be holding me 
you should be holding me 


in the end i trusted you now there is nothing 
nothing not no nothing not no nothing 
no no nothing left 

was it easier just to walk away 
leave it all behind in the rain 

i made a song and called it don’t pretend 
but you don’t understand what i was trying to say 
i see you laughing with your other friends 
you’re never gonna like it anyways 
now you should be holding me 
now you should me holding me 

time 
is passing me right by 
why? 
must i feel paralyzed? 

so i can’t have peace of mind but at least i wont be dead 
in the end i trusted you now there is nothing left 
hello? 
every night i pray for you
i wonder what you’re up late doing 
if i had more time i’d give it all up for you 

now you should be holding me 
now you should me holding me 
you should be holding me 

would it be easier to start again 
like we’re strangers just pretend 
pretend that it wasn’t meant to be 
why can’t you be holding me? 
why can’t you be holding me? 
why can’t you be holding me
