Lullaby of Lies

January 28, 2006

Everywhere I look

I see your face

and I am dying

in this place

but I can’t say

I’m sorry

Cause every time

I make a wish

to feel your heart

and taste your lips

my future just

gets blurry

You’re all that I

have ever known

without you I

feel so alone

and I hate

every minute

But if I crawl

into your warmth

and seek for shelter

from the storm

I’ll just be deeper

in it

So lie to me

a lullaby

and watch me tremble

as I cry

and make my mind

forget

Cause if I can’t

these memories

will have me crawling

hands and knees

a lifetime

of regret

And every piece of me

ashamed

and I have no one left

to blame

and all I want’s

relief

Even if it’s

just a dream

a thought,

a feeble minded scheme

wrapped up in

sheer deceit
