Discipline

Down

I believe a lot of stupid shit that's not true.  You loving me, for example.

Nothings the same since you came into my life
Burning heat radiates from me 
Since the day you set my soul on fire.
We may be just friends. 
But theres much more to this (Theres so much more to this)
And I am sure of this (I am sure of this)
I am so sure of it.  
You were mine…still mine
Till the end of time I’ll be by your side
Destined by fate; Soul mates.
At the end of the day,
Im one phone call away 
Singing about that day

You said I love you
I said I love you too
Just want to hold you,
Fire in your eyes so true
Too scared to lose you,
Too scared to tell the truth
But I could use you..
Just be my muse.

Keeping it quiet
Keeping it to myself
Playing platonic
Playing it safe, I guess
Too scared to lose you
Too scared to lose you
Too scared to lose you 
Just be my muse

This is love
I think I finally got it
This is love
Im feeling so outta pocket cause I know love
But baby boy you’re a blessing straight from the stars above
Every time I leave you I feel a void in my chest
And when Im in your presence I feel that Im at my best
And then you stop time with your eyes
Collide the oceans with the skies
And damn, my palms are sweating as if Im taking a test
Remember the convo that we had together that December?
Or when I called you crying early in September?
You promised that you’d always be my friend 
And the day that you’d leave me hangings the day 
That the world will end

I wanna be your friend, but friends don’t do the things we do
May want little more, but Im afraid of losing you
You kiss my lips and Im in bliss
But God forbid you ask me
If I wanna be with you, cause Ill tell a lie till Im blue
Communication (Communication)
Secrets surrounding our every conversation
(But when you touch me, and when you love me,
I feel so lovely, it feels so lovely staring at you above me)
Cause I see it, you see it,
Chemistry has been deepened
And now my will has been weakened 
Cause in your touch I felt freedom.

But now I open my eyes
Everything you said to me no longer applies
Had me in a heart bind
The words that you spoke had me feeling sublime
You told me your soul burned when I crossed your mind
Excerpts you sent just to fill up my time
Your name was a station that triggered a rewind
Im turning the channel, yeah drop of a dime
So many words
The shit that you said to me, I’d never heard
Poetic text
Like “The image in my head of you is surely complex”
“Full flesh”
“I choose to see you girl, often in bed”
“You got your eyes on my mind, I  wish we could connect”
“Mind, body and soul, I return to where we met”’
I can’t believe I bought that shit 
Love was my greatest threat

Time Wasted by Florentine.

Wasting time
Arms wrapped around you, 
Paradigm shift
Shifting
Tumbling
Falling
Stumbling, 
Bawling every time I feel so alone
I call your phone
No answer.

How you gonna forget about me?
Say that we’re good but your time is not free
Keeping my mouth shut, my gut is hungry
Fed me with words but your flight I foresee

You hold my hand
Making me feel like your my man
Knowing damn well your just a friend 
But then you kiss my lips again…

Then you kiss my lips again
Start to steer the ship again
Grinding with your hips again
Pull my hair and take me there 
In this secret love affair
After sex I always stare.

Wasting time
Arms wrapped around you, 
Paradigm Shift
Shifting
Tumbling
Falling
Stumbling, 
Bawling every time I feel so alone
I call your phone…
Pick up!

Why am I here? 
Why come here now?
This is a challenge.
Im down on luck, 
Im down to fuck
And you’re around.

Remember when we were together?
Playing rough in sweater weather?
Dont it all feel familiar?
Maybe Im thinking too much
We go our own ways 
Then some of the days 
You come on around
And we hit the town
Laying real low
Cause both of us know
Contact like this is a slippery slope
Cause you independent, and Im independent
But none of that matters when you rock up in it
And its so magnificent
That I miss it when its gone
Going with the wind
Real early in the morning 

Real early in the morning
I turn to a face I adore
Knowing you’re here but not knowing what for
Wont be too long ’till you walk out that door

’Til you walk out that door
You’re here but what is this for?

Wasting time
Arms wrapped around you, 
Paradigm Shift
Shifting
Tumbling
Falling
Stumbling, 
Bawling every time I feel so alone
I call your phone…

Wasting time
Arms wrapped around you, 
Paradigm shift
Shifting
Tumbling
Falling
Stumbling, 
Bawling every time I feel so alone
I call your phone…

Smooth Goin' Down

Re-Introduce Myself

Credits to Toran "TenToez" for the instrumental.
Credit to subject of this song for not giving half the fucks I do.

I fucking hate you
Especially cause you’re really what I want 
And I used to wanna date you
You got me fucked up bout love
And you really can’t relate 
Cause you don’t feel how I feel
And I swear I pride myself on keeping it real
But I’ll lie to your face if you ask me 
'Bout my heart 
Cause if I tell the truth 
I know it’s a done deal 
Sometimes I feel uneasy about love
Sometimes I know it’s you I’m thinking of
Feel like Tyler,
I’m creating pictures seeing you above me when in reality you’re barely even aware of me
Simple conversation gets my heartbeat  racing 
And I know you underestimate 
How your role further complicates my feelings
You grab my hand and pull me in to dance
Next thing I be in my thoughts and shit
while you be in my pants

I want you to give me more
I know you won’t do it
Around the world we could explore
But you’ll beat me to it
You’re like the wind against my shore
And you chill me to the core
I just want to be adored..

I just wanna be loved
I want you to give a fuck
I don’t wanna be lonely while you’re doing youre own thing
I don’t wanna be the only one sitting here stuck

You like it when I kiss your lips
I already knew that
You wanna feel someones support?
I already do that.
I should fucking cut you off 
Not like you’d care anyway 
So it’s really no one’s loss

I been so fucking stupid 
How many tears I cried 
All the emotions pooled in some fucking guy

I’m getting angry as I write this 
Woah
Lemme take a break

Because the more I talk
The more my fucking head aches
And my fucking heart burns 
You make my fucking guts churn

You treat me like you like me 
I know you’re not really here
I’m just here to entertain you 
And you’ve made that very clear
Every time I think of this it puts me in my place
I could snap a fucking picture 
And you’d cover your face

Not with them though
Shows how much you care
You’re only bothered with me 
When they’re not there
It smells real bitter in the air

I could go on for hours talking about 
How the way you act towards me makes me want to act out
Maybe I don’t really hate you
I’m just mad at myself
Cause I let you take my love and
Put right on the shelf

But you’ll use it when you need it
Yeah, that’s for sure
All the years of pain that I fucking boar
Just to let you back in like you’re the cure
But when I did that
You just infected me more
