i'm not easy no more,
i'm not as fun,
so what's up my man?
the sky and the sun.

i'm far from over,
i'm no where near,
i'm biting things hard,
most of them are bitter.

so i'm passing through,
and you don't see me,
here's something you didn't know,
i saved you the front row.

i'll continue walking,
see the birds chirping,
i already lost my hearing,
your silence was deafening.

please don't apologize,
i barely take things to heart,
it was already missing,
nothing much for you to cut.

please don't start weeping,
i'll stay at the sideline,
paying attention and waiting,
for you to do nothing.

this hymn,
you see,
it just won't stop,
no matter when
you're far up north,
and i'm down south.

this silence,
baby,
is not for nothing,
it feels like gambling,
can't be anymore exciting,
than to just see
what the tide might bring.

perhaps room is what you need,
at least that's how i read it.
or call me stupid,
for tardily pursuing my bid.

i do admit,
it feels like i'm losing grip,
which i never had,
though i don't feel so bad,
for such an exquisite scenery,
it's always worthy
to be silly.

I am sent adrift,
and everyday is just another shift,
when all I need is a chant,
to send me ashore again.

I went astray,
still with hope on my tray,
though I can no longer listen
to what you have to say,
when you are too distant.

come on over,
take my hand,
pick the clover,
wipe off the sand,
stay right there,
comprehend when,
it's easier to catch a fever,
than to grab you for a dinner.

or perhaps just a supper,
I'd still get to
spend minutes together,
send you home later,
we could maybe
take a detour,
get amused at the theater,
they're for you to consider,
my dear.

I heard voices telling,
I should give you something,
For all I know,
you deserve to have everything,
So what do I do
when I can hand you nothing?

For what it's worth,
I'd resort to stealing,
But what is worse,
I don't do this V thing,
Had a bad history about it,
and bad histories tend to keep repeating.

So take this words as a sign,
That you don't need a special day
to be in someone's mind,
Let alone when you're mine.

Now, would you mind?

how can i ever tell
how much i've been missing you
you put me under your spell
haven't been able to see things through

things happened in a snap
never saw it coming
thought i could see the ending
tried to do so with a clap

although i would be lying
to say i wanna shake off this feeling
because when you opt to be silent
i wear purple to feel your presence

so i'm telling that i'm missing you
that things can't be any truer than true
and i'll forever be in blue
waiting for those eyes to shed a clue

now listen.
can't you hear
the deafening silence?

it's awkward.
it's not even unclear
this is weird.

*
whisper to me how
to ease my pain.
show it to me now
i wanna be sane.
again.

we're celebrating.
we're jumping around
but something's missing.

i pondered a while.
i'm longing for
that blissfully burning smile.

she's getting further,
she's moving further,
off beyond my reach,
i used to smell flowers.

i'm going deeper,
i'm pushed deeper,
and i'm barely hearing,
the questions to my answers.

there're plenty to be told,
not much are bold,
Her Highness couldn't care enough,
none could be sold.

it's falling apart,
it's rumbling hard,
the hope of the states,
on a house of cards.

how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me into a blind,
when suffocation turns out to be something so fine,
when every path looks like a straight line.

how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me upside-down in every kind,
when an honest smile on my face
is not a luxury hard enough to find,
when i'm in haven sans any wine.

how can i take you off my mind,
when the only number i can think of is nine.

I was strolling in the sky,
And I wonder
How she could fly me this high,
To the place where,
Nothing of anything i fared,
Is anywhere near the bar,
I know,
Had them all by far.

So I sit and sip the coffee,
I know it's a journey,
And nothing comes for free,
But this fear of not knowing,
What the future is going to bring,
Is inviting a greater suffering,
For if it's going to rain,
I don't know if I can contain,
The state of being in such pain.

I made my stand,
Don't know how it's going to end,
The hope's for the best,
We'll celebrate and have a fest,
Too bad if it's not going to go through,
Life is never easy,
Proven to be terribly cruel.

I've never been at this altitude,
And I know for a fact,
Those eyes are worth a fight,
And no one's going to make it feel this good.

O how silly it could be,
when you're just another leaf on the tree,
as green as others,
nothing about you matters.

O how dull does it sound,
when you're just another jewel on the crown,
as glittering as the rest,
nothing makes you the best.

O how suffocating is the beat,
when you're just another man on the street.
