With cliche lines and melodies
Ill express the things I cannot say
With broken shards of poetry
I bleed the words I used to pray
Clouds of smoke just hide the doubt
That I know who I am
Wicked lies and busy lives
Caress my awful scam
Does he know that hes all I have?
That I gasp for his every breath?
That without his heartbeat close to mine
There is only remaining death?
Yet I carry on this wretched act
Because I cant admit my place
A reject of God, a reject of man
Just running an endless race
For I will never find the one I love
Because he is running too
Fleeing the harsh reality he knows
Escaping his allotted doom
And if he finds me, will he stay?
His soul is so confused!
I begged their god to grant us peace
But the god of love refused
So I keep running desperately
Choking on my tears
Seeking the refuge of his arms
Which melt away my fears
But for now my lines and melodies
Will express the things I cannot say
And with broken shards of poetry
I bleed the words I used to pray
