Myths of Past

Like looking both ways on a one way street
It's an unnecessary recognition
Walking away from repeated needs
How can she debate on them and not see me
A fever wrecks my thoughts
Wishing that I was there
"I love you" echoing deeper inside
I'm moving on but idealization doesn't die
A thought will always call to her, as it does for another
When will I know it's real
How is this going to be returned
Living, living, hurting and dying
Wanting, wanting, waiting and trying
I've confounded this concept
This case calls for recess
It's dynamic and fooled
It's heated and cooled
Endings start the past
Tonight we won't last

Where To Be

Impatience is a virtue for those who've waited too long
This endless hope need not go on
When will stability reign
When does pleasure take away pain
A black heat, hopeless
A racing beast, slowless
Do what you will
My heart is jaded, alone and steel
My words are said, it's all I need
Walk on in denial, it's over, relieved
The past returns in name alone
A warmth unfamiliar, feels like home
Your lips curl and a smile breaks silence
This is me revived, hopeful against defiance
Tell me again of those moments of old
When secrets were broken and hearts were told

To Live

Tell me of love, of pain, of suffering
Tell me of times of joy lasting tirelessly
Speak those words of praise, divine reverence
It's time to face the lost
It's time to lose your will
Love lasts but dwells among desperation
How do you determine such commitment

Tell me of hate, of pleasure, of happiness
Tell me of those moments lost in investment
I'm fighting these choices when God is leading
Do I know Him as I should
His voice is set behind my own
I'm losing because I chase this path
I will soon lose the source I know
My future is uncertain, I've lost who I am
My potential is squandered

Tell me of choice, of future, of falling
Tell me my life is going, changing
Speak to me and don't let me go
But it's time to leave
It's time to break away
Tell me to dedicate
Tell me to live
