They're like twins, only one is ugly.

[virtue3]

Because I just can't find the words to say that wont make you angry,
I don't say them, and open my mouth anyway.

When I'm near you, my mind gets tied and my tongue gets hazey.
Things aren't as simple as they are in my head,
These idle fantasies fail to show their prophetic untruths.
And sitting close to you makes me feel so silly,
a gentle wind that can't quite make it up the mountain.

But, damn, how those mountain flowers smell so nice.
And when I'm near you, all I can think about;
that mischievous smile when you're teasing.
my face goes flush and I hide it behind something silly.
I could never admit to letting you see what you do to me.
I know you see it anyway.

The words inbetween us in the air,
silently hanging on their weight,
and still I wont say them.

Because I like you, for all the things I could never say out loud.
Your honesty is refreshing in a world filled with lies.
Your playfulness is like a school game when we were still innocent,
Only with the charm of your suggestiveness.
That smile you get when you know you tripped me up,
leaves me furthur disadvantaged,
In ways I couldn't hope to pretend to understand.

Because I can't stop thinking about you.

===============================================================

My hands are empty,
there's nothing left to hold.
It's all been taken,
Three middles left to unfold.

I'm still standing,
The wind entwines my thoughts,
drifting, drifting, drifting,
Cloudy dreams not left alone.

Affected by your cruelty,
Silent words their rejection echoes still.
Your voiceless insult wounds the deepest,
I have ever known.

My words were true,
despite your best excuse,
they were for no one but you.

You don't say anything.
