Purgatory
Verse 1:
Here I am again in this waiting room
Don't know what way it's going to to
Don't know where I'm going and I don't know who
Is going to walk in through the door
Although you're here, I feel alone
And I want to just break down and cry
But even now at this desperate time
Won't let the tear slip out of my eye
Chorus:
Forever in this stage of purgatory
Promise you'll run away, stay away from me
I've long accepted this is how it's going to be
The devil in hell is probably waiting on me
Verse 2:
I know he's watching, I...
Here I am again in this waiting room
Don't know what way it's going to to
Don't know where I'm going and I don't know who
Is going to walk in through the door
Although you're here, I feel alone
And I want to just break down and cry
But even now at this desperate time
Won't let the tear slip out of my eye
Chorus:
Forever in this stage of purgatory
Promise you'll run away, stay away from me
I've long accepted this is how it's going to be
The devil in hell is probably waiting on me

Why Can't You?
Why can’t you see things the way I see them?
How beautiful your eyes are, the powers of your smile.
Why can’t you hear things the way I hear them?
The music of your laugh, the truth behind your denial.
Why can’t you understand things the way I understand them?
Like the kindness in your heart, or how strong you really are.
Why can’t you feel things the way I feel them?
Like the love I have for you. You’re my life, my soul, my heart.
How beautiful your eyes are, the powers of your smile.
Why can’t you hear things the way I hear them?
The music of your laugh, the truth behind your denial.
Why can’t you understand things the way I understand them?
Like the kindness in your heart, or how strong you really are.
Why can’t you feel things the way I feel them?
Like the love I have for you. You’re my life, my soul, my heart.

The Colours Of The Skies
At daybreak I see red, fiery and warning.
It illuminates the sky, getting brighter minute by minute.
It takes over the cotton clouds, lining their edges.
It is wary of the day to come, of what it shall unravel.
Later I see blue and yellow, safe and content.
The rays of light stretch out, transforming all to gold.
The clouds begin forming shapes, shape-shifting at their will.
It promises us happiness, all worries are forgotten.
At sunset I see orange, warming and tranquil.
It tints all it touches, bringing beauty upon the world.
The sun lowers...

Him
He makes me feel like I am falling infinitely
Though I do not fear of when I may land
For I continue to hope and dream that maybe
He’ll be there holding my hand
His eyes his face his nonchalant way
All give me butterflies when our paths meet
And even in our brief conversations in class
He makes my heart skip a beat
He brings a smile upon my face
Even on days that I feel low
I dream of dancing in the moonlight
Softly swaying to and fro
His gleaming smile, his gentle chuckle
Forms a harmony in my ears
The thought of his arms...
Though I do not fear of when I may land
For I continue to hope and dream that maybe
He’ll be there holding my hand
His eyes his face his nonchalant way
All give me butterflies when our paths meet
And even in our brief conversations in class
He makes my heart skip a beat
He brings a smile upon my face
Even on days that I feel low
I dream of dancing in the moonlight
Softly swaying to and fro
His gleaming smile, his gentle chuckle
Forms a harmony in my ears
The thought of his arms...

The Butterflies
The relief of knowing,
Knowing that all will be better
That changing its form
Will heal you of this pain
Making haste as you search
Search for your ticket to healing
Joy takes over your body
You become intoxicated
The realisation of pain
Pain brings you swiftly back
Shows you that what you believed
Was completely untrue
Tears stream as you search
Search for what will save you
You let out a sigh and draw them
The butterflies.

Was completely untrue
Tears stream as you search
Search for what will save you
You let out a sigh and draw them
The butterflies.
