Bring You Down

by Unrequited   Apr 25, 2007


You speak these words,
i hear no noise
breaking wounds
with absent tongues
and we are filtered through
as angels close their eyes,
distant, dead cracked sighs-
and the hands that do not move.

recapture the smiles
in blinded rooms.
times moves faster when
there's nothing to lose
no one to love
silence flashes
underneath these stones
these hearts
so alone
your thoughts reside
where i don't belong
we sing the sorrow
we've felt all along
the creatures shed their tears...
these voices have no home.

the sun of silence
never shines anymore
burning fires
never burn anymore
i am frozen
beneath these skies
and these scars are here to stay.

and still i blink my eyes
with thoughts of you
silent words within this heart,
shattered promises upon this tongue.

feelings falter
when buried deep inside
creatures shed their heavy tears
with thoughts of you in mind
you can't make
this love feel true
but still i blink
in blinded rooms
when i think of you
lightning strikes
as we filter through...
their voices dare not speak.

and now this heart
will bring you down
when did the present
pass us by?
it's the future
that can't be found
tonight we cry
our silver cries
my tears will turn you blue...

these feelings will falter
when buried deep inside
this heart will bring you down
this love will crash
as tomorrow falls apart...

these words i dare not speak.

    The desperation you portray holding inside is so great.... its very interesting how you can show a hint of containment in the midst of the feeling that youre going to burst
