these wooden floors

they make no sounds

as you turn

and look to the ground

your lonely eyes

they look so deep

like your lost

in a restless sleep

my hands are warm

they slip in fear

when you leave

in a flurry of tears

/

these sunny days

where we can smile

are they real?

I don't want to leave this blissful isle

but then your pretty laugh

it's washed away

like the sun

on a rainy day

my lips don't move

as you look at me

at my hidden heart,

not able to feel

/

these beautiful colours

they seem faded

like our minds

tired, and jaded

what is love?

the little girl asked you

'it's a beautiful thing'

I wish that was true

my fingers are frozen

so cold, unfeeling

they don't leave your arm

darling, I'm unyielding

/

these battles we fight

they're already lost

so what is the point?

what is the cost?

you think that you're failing

we should give up hope

but don't you turn back

we're still afloat

I can sense your sorrow

my dear,

put on that happy grin

wipe your tears

/

maybe this is wishful thinking, but you're mending
you think we're at war - this is love darling
what did you expect?
it's not all hearts and roses, certainly not perfect
you've got to fight hard, but you wait for the last kiss
oh honey, do you want to fall down that dark, deep abyss?
