She searches to complete the emptiness in a new face every night. Just for a chance to fill the loneliness inside the shadow of the night. Now she can run but she can't hide from the ghosts inside her past. She may lose herself into the lies "it's not love but hell it lasts". So tell me what are we trying for when we never had control and we search for something tangible within the remnants of our souls. Now she can see it's not forever but she needs him at her side. It may not be the best thing but it's all that they could find. When she looks into the mirror she knows there is something more. She's waiting to find love again but for now she's not alone.
The Other Side You say the grass is greener, well I've forgotten how it felt, so soft and soothing and peaceful to my soul. You try to tell me of the wonders that you have known. But, my feeble mind can't fathom the love that you've been shown. Sometimes I forget what it was like to be in your shoes. To speak the words of promise that you whisper so intently now, and I can't help but wonder how the parts we play have been reversed. I just know that I want to be on the other side. So how do I get there? I ask of you, expecting yet recieving no reply to the questions that I already know the answer to. But your way is not my own and you can only help me try to find my way back home ... the other side.
I've seen better days been closer to you felt your presence at my side and sometimes it seems that I'll never get back to where I was but then I realize, that I can't look back, no I can't compare, to how my life has changed since I was there. I'll look to you for my joy and my strength. Yes, I'll run to you and I'll seek your love and your grace. I get so tired of falling down, I don't know why you take me back. But I know this, that you're love is true and there is nothing I could ever do to escape your love or to lose your grace. No, you never will turn away your face and so I'll run to you with my outstrecthed arms and you'll hold me close, yes you'll keep me safe from harm.
Tug Of War I'm slipping back into the void and I welcome every stumble. Not worried with your fading face as I watch each promise crumble. Go ahead, I'll meet you there, just leave me here for now, in this place where dreams last and tomorrow I'll start over. I search for something real with the faces in the crowd, but they all cry out for my escape and absorb each lasting breath. There must be more to you than this constant tug of war, so why do we reach the peace you offer to simply taste the torment of the fall? |
