Unfinished
I don't want to breath anymore.
I don't want to be touched anymore
Not by you
I want to feel free again
I want to feel safe again
Even from you
I want you to leave me alone. I want you to make me stay. I'd like to feel free from everything. I won't be victim to anything.
I'll shrink so far inside that I can't feel the pain.
It won't be long til my heart is dry
Drier than my eyes have been for days
Than my lips for ages
My throat for years
Knotted inside, everything I ever wanted to say
To you
To myself
A blessing within a curse
I wait to see which of us will get hurt first

he had all kind of reasons
why she was unable to love him
she was just too young
she was too high strung
she was afraid of commitment
but all of the theories
that he recited
played like the song
of the unrequited
baby, how long's it been now
since you held me to your chest
and told me that you love me
more than all the rest
it's such a shame that you won't talk to me
cuz i won't repeat after you
i believe that there is more to life
we coulda loved each other through
but i was afraid of commitment
when it came to you
i'll tell you, if there is one instinct
i just can't get with at all
it's the urge to kill something beautiful
just to hang it on your wall
are you just too young
are you too high strung
to actually follow through
on all the love you said you had
baby i never lied to you
is all or nothing
the best we can do?

nicotine
i hate you sometimes
but i love to be your queen
you are my muse
got me smokin nicotine
i watch you sometimes
from oh so far away
but i can't forget you
or anything you say
you sang that song in my ear
and it tickled those tiny hairs
love is a puzzle
some pieces they adjoin
it's not like that with us
but i keep flipping that coin
i watch you sometimes
from oh so far away
but i can't forget you
or anything you say
you sang that song in my ear
and it tickled those tiny hairs
