The Tease
As the wind swept her hair,
I couldn't help but stare.
That gleam in her eyes
Wipes away all my lies.
Her crooked, big, wide smile
And her androgynous, unique style.
The way she carries her own,
She can make a girl feel so alone.
Then it all comes back to that stare
And her wind-swept, disheveled hair.
That one last glance and you'll know,
Her perfect silhouette is just for show.
I couldn't help but stare.
That gleam in her eyes
Wipes away all my lies.
Her crooked, big, wide smile
And her androgynous, unique style.
The way she carries her own,
She can make a girl feel so alone.
Then it all comes back to that stare
And her wind-swept, disheveled hair.
That one last glance and you'll know,
Her perfect silhouette is just for show.

Dark Life
Dark night, dark soul, fighting for a place on this earth,
Dark feelings, dark road, I'm trying to figure it out.
I'm losing myself on this dark road, in this dark night,
I'm a creation of dark feelings, I have a dark soul.
Dark day, dark mind, I'm trying to hide the pain,
Dark love, dark road, I'm craving her, but she's away.
I'm losing myself on this dark road, in this dark day,
I'm a creation of a dark love, I have a dark mind.
Dark future, dark past, I'm broken by all the things,
Dark imagination, dark road, I'm an insane, lost creature....
Dark feelings, dark road, I'm trying to figure it out.
I'm losing myself on this dark road, in this dark night,
I'm a creation of dark feelings, I have a dark soul.
Dark day, dark mind, I'm trying to hide the pain,
Dark love, dark road, I'm craving her, but she's away.
I'm losing myself on this dark road, in this dark day,
I'm a creation of a dark love, I have a dark mind.
Dark future, dark past, I'm broken by all the things,
Dark imagination, dark road, I'm an insane, lost creature....

Walking away
I've wasted all these days for something that just won't be.
Looked all around for something I'll never see.
My mind is telling me I need to walk away, but my heart disagrees.
I just want to break away from these chains of love and be free.
So badly, I want the girl you think about every night to be me.
It's so heart wrenching when you look at me with those eyes.
So beautiful, big, blue and full of lies.
Please just let go of my hand and cut all ties.
Just leave my head, go on, go and leave me to my demise.
Too many dreams and thoughts reflected...

Pisces love
They say we're like two old trees on the top of an enchanted hill.
Aging together forever, always by each other's side.
I don't see what they do, especially since you only ignore me for the thrill.
I want to burn those trees down!
I want to laugh in your face when I tell you what I did.
I want to feel the rush of happiness as I see you frown.
Your beautiful blue eyes will disappear into the night.
I'll enjoy seeing you in pain like you did to me!
I'll watch you leave without even putting up a fight.
But then, you'll turn around and give...
