The dance of hurt

by Faith   Jul 14, 2008


Palms gripped around my waist
that rose is pinched between your teeth
your breath is giving me chills
my heart is giving a sparatic beat
im dancing with you now
stepping foward to the side and back again
head leaned all the way back
my hair sweeps the floor
your black eyes are engraved into my blues
turning them darker and darker once more
if only you were a man, if only this was a dance floor
you keep asking for one more dance
and i never can walk away
for one reason or another i long for you to stay
your that final motivation to never give up
your that deepest thought that haunts me
spinning in circles, faster and faster is my fate
the lights get dim, the music stops and now its to late
i have taken my final dance with the problems of this world
all the while i thought it was just a little dance, just a little touch, just a little swirl
i have danced this dance for many years
and it has let loose soo many tears
when i look into the eyes of hurt it smiles and tucks the rose behind my ears
baby i wanted to slow dance
and give you what you need
my pain is what you drink and off of my own fingetips you feed
now we are all alone in this room of blank stares
no one knows whats going on here
baby no one knows your even there
lets dance this last song of suicide
its a tune im sure you know
i sing it as your lullaby
your nightmares soon follow
i no longer want to dance but terror fills the room
his hands are now around my throat and all i feel is doom
you called for me in your deepest dispair and now im here
you tell me what your final wish is and we both shall dissapear
the tears race to my lips and i tremble beneath his strength
and now all i remeber is the slowley fading length
the floor is getting closer and the echos in my ears
are eating at my insides and snatching all my fears
as i lay across the dance floor in my once dazzling dance shoes
i have nothing left to say and nothing left to prove......
i once had the world to give and now i have it to loose
