Mayday

Folder: 
Romanticism

(...can i withstand your steps,

i wondered on your finger tips

i wandered off your finger tips,

looking for one more thought..)



well i lost your senses

when i lost my head

damage extensive

reaching your expense



eat i with lead pencils

write i with steel forks

in plates of glassware

hide i metaphors



you're not reading

you're running for your life

well its right here

even if its out of sight



you were pacing

you were stepping on my mind

well come back here

the beats out of time



well i lost your stencils

and i've lost my gift

damage extensive

not to draw you in



you're not posing

you threw on formal clothes

and a brave face

in the middle of the night



you were pacing

you were stepping on my mind

well come back here

the beats out of time



the glass is empty

as far as i can see

but sinse you left

love seems blind to me



can i withstand the fog

will i cross on red

will the sea clear way to cave

only appear to open



mayday-you don't read me

you're running for your life

well its right here

slowly sinking out of sight



you were swimming

you were paddling my mind

well come back here

didn't mean tears to dry



(you've found solid ground,

six feet under my eyes)

Till this day i'm not sure who or what the inspiration was for this, but i do love it anyway.
