Heels over....

I yearn to tell a lie
It just isn't as easy as all that
Because I want to make myself believe
Make a reality out of nothing real

Failure burns away under the surface

No
Destruction isn't my game
and I suppose that means that
This girl, at least
Can't play it in your name

Quiver away on the edge of defiance
Sweet, pitiful soul of truth
Shine with your terrible light of certainty

Yet marvel at the sacrifice you have given
For your soul will burn at both ends
And sometimes
The pain of shame will shine your face
and will speak louder than your eloquence.

Love

Will make a martyr of you
Then grind your honest soul to dust

But for once
God....for once
Just let this fool heart
Be spared the weight
Of caring
