The Sun Burned Out

I'm so happy
That I could die
But they need me
So I will try
To play in this game I despise
To hide behind my disguise

Could they help me
To see what they see
All the beauty surrounding me?
Could you save me from myself?
Could I become someone else?

I can't survive another day
Without talking to you
And I wish that I could find a way
To tell you

At the end, the consequence
Pain and sorrow
Abandonment
Of all the love you had for me
And all I thought would set me free

I can't survive another day
Of living without you
And I wish that I could find a way
To show you
To show you

So Happy

Lullaby

I saw you, Datadrift
And my heart was swept away
I fell too hard
And I'm still falling to this day
And this is my way
Of telling you baby.

All my desire exploded
Like a hurricane
I leapt into your fire
And I would do it all again 
If you'd just say when
I'd come running to you

I know I left you feeling angry
I'd never blame you if you hate me
Like I'm hating myself

I think about you
Nearly every single day 
No less a part of me
However far away
Haven't been OK without you
No.

And here's a final thought
That I will leave you with
I'm still in love with, my Datadrift
How could I forget my breath?

Spinning sinking
Wishful thinking
Foolish dreaming
Inside screaming
Oceans calling me back
To you.

Datadrift

Beware of Darkness (No Vocal)

Recorded on a digital 8-track, way back when...two friends of mine took their own lives within a year of each other. Of course how could I realize at the time that suicide would visit my life again?
