Through the Window


Looking in from the window

What has life become? 

The glue holding me together

Has come undone


Every night under the moonlight

Always watching from the shadows.

Keeper of your every comfort,

Will I ever find my own? 


I don't want to live on your dime

But I feel like I've got more time

Is the choice really yours or mine? 

I don't think I'm ready to die.


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I don't want nothing to count on me 

I don't want to let it all down 

It's hard enough to hold the line 

When you're leaning on a rain cloud


Didn't need to lay you down to rest 

You were already on the ground 

So I laid down beside you 

Until the sun came 'round


I didn't know what else to do

It seemed like it already happened

There was no light, or warmth, or hope.

The sun begat dark, cold, pain. 


Ever since I've been piling stones

and cursing winds of they ever fall. 

Praying to the birds that there's some meaning in this misery.

Some long awaited reward at the end of the pit.

Digging deeper, still.

Have I reached you yet?

There's a song in my heart

But it stopped when yours did

I can't lose if I don't play 

So what's the point?


I don't want your help

You just wouldn't get it

I don't want the pain

I just want to forget it. 


I don't mean that,

I'm sorry I said it.

but it hasn't been the same

and I'll always regret it.

Seven Loves You.

You were always hiding behind every wishful thought

A flicker in the darkness of the light almost forgot 

The oxygen has vanished and I'm on my last breath,

Digging more and more each day,

Have I reached you yet?


Isolation is a heavy stone

but there's no island,

I'm not alone.

I'm just trying to be a better man

Just trying to be good. 


What makes a man? 

Is it in me?

It must be heavy;

I think I'm sinking.


I know the weight of my mistakes 

They pull me under in my dreams

I'm always running uphill

Until I wake up at the bottom.


I know the choices were all mine;

I'm the only one to blame

but that doesn't ease my mind

and it hurts just the same.


"As much as I loved it;

As great as it was;

I ripped and I ruined it

And now it is done"


I'm in an echo chamber 

and I can't find my way out

I keep hearing the same words

like they're coming from my mouth


Seven loves you,

even when you lose hope.

When you forget to hail mary;

Or run out of rope. 


Seven loves you,

when you're ever in doubt.

I ain't got nothin left to say

except the truth.
