sometimes i bleed for you
my will you can't undo
i feel cold steel break through
i bleed myself for you.
my life has come unglued
i can't discern or prove
my heart, it yearns for truth
i spill my blood for you.
death wish to be pursued
i give my flesh as food
my blood belongs to you
i want to be consumed.
Postpone
why do you stay
when i say for you to go?
why do i play
though each time
i tell you no?
what do you think,
that i need you so?
(chorus) one of these lonely loney nights
one of these lonely lonely nights
one of these lonely lonely nights
they'll be you.
why do you wait
like you know
what i would say?
why do you take
the bait
each time it's layed?
what do you think,
that our future
starts someday?
(chorus)
why do you still
persist to remain?
why do you still
insist to pine away?
what do you think,
that you will attain?
(chorus) repeat once
Poser
am i really this insecure
does everybody like me
i gotta be sure
do they think i'm funny
do they think i'm cool
does anybody know
what i'm doing this for
why do i wory what they think of me
don't i know i'm making such
a poser of me
is everybody looking
do they think i'm cool
does anybody know
what i'm doing this for
is it necessarry to contemplate
i'll buy a round of drinks
to guilt alleviate
is everybody laughing
do they think i'm cool
does anybody know
what i'm doing this for
does anybody know who i'm trying to be
how did i lose the girl
formerly known as me
does everybody like me
is everybody fooled
does anybody know
what i'm doing this for?
Traumatic Stress Syndrome
i try not to retreat
from where i place my feet
i travel to repeat
what i know i can't defeat
everybody's naked
the stress is too complete
my mind cannot compete
i'm getting in too deep
i have a secret i can't keep
everybody's naked
i made an inaudible bleat
a cry that's incomplete
my heart made still it's beat
it's a vigilante feat
everybody's naked
the situation's bleak
my burden's made me weak
i'll camouflage and sneak
away from what i seek
everybody's naked
can i trust you not to speak
of what must remain discrete
i'm addicted to the peak
of this momentary tweak
everybody's naked, everybody's naked, everybody's naked
Needy
and so it seems
as time goes by
passions fade
makes me wonder why
what once flowed freely
like your flowery words
takes deep concentration
for a word to be heard
i want to feel loved
i need to be needed
i desire the days
of first touch, bodies heated
i want back the magic
our love once churned
i pine in remebrance
of when my heart burned
when did the fire cool
when did it become a strain
when did we stop making love
in the cool summer rain
i want to feel loved
i need to be needed
i desire the days
of first touch, bodies heated
i want back the magic
our love once churned
i pine in remembrance
of when my heart burned
what happened to endless chatter
sharing all our worries
comparing each other's
heart breaking war stories
i want to feel loved
i need to be needed
i desire the days
of first touch, bodies heated
i want back the magic
our love once churned
i pine in remembrance
of when my heart burned
i want to be known
and still be a mystery
i want you to know me
and still hunger deeply
i want to feel loved
i need to be needed
i desire the days
of first touch, bodies heated
i want back the magic
our love once churned
i pine in remembrance
of when my heart burned
Emotional Mute
how does a heartache work
draws strength each uttered curse
no reason in the universe
invisible wounds i'm left to nurse
imperceptable, undetectable
i struggle deep inside
ache i persist to hide
the contents of my stomache start to slide
and my alter ego shows her charming side
imperceptable, undetectable
i contradict my own dispute
pounding of my head in strained refute
why can't i execute
method to the madness of emotional mute
imperceptable, undetectable
i scream a silent ache
my heart was doomed to break
for goodness sake
how much more silence can i take
imperceptable, undetectable
time drags in looping lapse
mouth tight in perfect clasp
i might collapse
i can only wrench a muted gasp
imperceptable, undetectable, imperceptable
