When there's nowhere else to run Is there room for one more son One more son If you can hold on If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go You know, you know - no you don't, you don't I wanna shine on in the hearts of men I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand
Another head aches, another heart breaks I'm so much older than I can take And my affection, well it comes and goes I need direction to perfection, no no no no
Help me out Yeah, you know you got to help me out Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner You know you got to help me out, yeah
And when there's nowhere else to run Is there room for one more son These changes ain't changing me The cold-hearted boy I used to be
Yeah, you know you got to help me out Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner You know you got to help me out, yeah. You're gonna bring yourself down Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
[Time, Truth, Hearts]
Yeah, you know you got to help me out Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner You know you got to help me out, yeah. You're gonna bring yourself down, yeah. You're gonna bring yourself down Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner You're gonna bring yourself down Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Over and in, last call for sin While everyone's lost, the battle is won With all these things that I've done All these things that I've done If you can hold on If you can hold on
She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles When the world is hers and she held your eyes Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer And she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
But you've already lost When you only had barely enough to hang on
And she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth And she made you better than you'd been before She told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer And she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap She said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"
But you've already lost When you only had barely enough to hang on
She said, "no one is alone the way you are alone" And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known Some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure Days like that should last and last and last
But you've already lost When you only had barely enough of her to hang on
There are girls who get everything they want without even asking, then there are girls who nag and get all grumpy and bitchy to get things that they want. Hahahaha naggy bitch!
"Isis died", never did i ever expect to hear that so soon. Left me in tears the whole night. I love you my precious, precious little baby, we share the same birthday.
I was here before, wrapped up in frowns, pale lips and nausea. I was here before, alone and scared, and i am here all over again, scared but ten times lonelier. I'll go through the same procedure again, this time with confident strides and hope for visual compensation because all i yearn for now is proof that it was actually all just in my head. This morning after my dad fastened the opal around my neck, i walked slow and unsuspiciously back into my room to dry my saline, tears which no one ever sees. Surprisingly when i came back out he asked me why i was crying, i just smiled and said i had dust in my eyes. I cannot put my guard down or i'll get taken advantage of. My dad has seen through me, i felt like punching him, i don't know why though. I never know anything anyway. So mom and i are back to square one again, enemies under the same roof.
This morning, i peered down and told the cab driver that his cab smelled like fuck, then slammed the door and walked off. Where is this angst coming from? I don't want to go back.
