Friday Night Lights

Hey there, how are you?
Would you like to
Leave with me?

Darling lets go now.
You know how
I want to leave

We'll go to the edge where we had our first date.
We both loved the place. We said one day our fate
Would take us there.
Let our lives be spared.

Lets go to the top.
This can't be stopped
By anyone.

The edge is so high.
We'll fall through the sky
Towards the Friday night lights.

Take my hand and one, two, three we'll go.
We'll give the city below the best show
They will ever see.
Lets be a memory.

As we fall,
The lights they call,
"Come to us, join us in this dance of misery"

As we fall from so high,
Slicing the sky,
I only see you, beautiful and true to me.

We bleed,
On Friday night lights.

Over, Past the Sky

Take me over the overpass
So I can look over and feel the vast dark sky touching my eyes.
The feeling of flying is overwhelming.
I wish to jump and soar away to the edge of the sky.
Here you and I can die into space and extinguish the trace of fear.
Picture perfect images of you and I as we touch the lips that kill, we die.
So we've died.
By the hand of another love quit forever.
Pour into my soul light, so ever bold from a distance.
Melt the way the time of day away from me shes been to let love spend existence.
But don't ask why this magnificence is boiling and coiling around the day.
Avert your eyes but feel the pain in beauty slowly again killing you and me.
Like a leaf off of falls tree, we descend back to hell calling.
Died and died again and we're back where we began under the overpass.
The saddest feeling filling our being slowly sinking us to the grass forever to 
dream gorgeous thoughts of the overpass.

She Will Be Real

She glides over the open field.
He watches her pass from below.
She has come to ask, but steals a thought to take when he said "no."
But the thought does no good for this humanoid.
For she is still unable to raise the void.
All she wants is to have one thought.
But still she will never be real.

From the girl he takes it back.
The thought he loves most is now back.
Images of vast distance through space rush before him on the path he traced.
He now hates what he has done.
She should have this thought, just this one.
He touches her hand and gives her thought.
But still she will never be real.

Her face so emotionless begins to shine.
If she could cry this would be the time.
With a gentle voice she said real smooth "a better thought one could not choose."
And raising their heads they looked to the sky.
In an instant he could die.
Watching the stars raises the thought.
But still she will never be real.

Taking his hands, together they ascend while more and more thoughts to her he 
sends.
Still looking high as they climb in the sky further and further up they fly.
She looks at him and he looks at her and slowly they begin to fall to the earth.
Him and her her only thought.
But still she will never be real.

Faster and faster they keep falling.
She doesn't understand why they are falling.
She looks to him and he is smiling.
He touches her cheeks, she is crying.
Closer and closer the ground is coming.
Together to their death they are falling.
Her and him his only thought.
But still she will never be real.

Love Manual Recall

Take me up to where it's hard to breath.
Just suffocate me.
Illuminated in light so cold by a face so bold.
Drift up,
Drift out.
Sink slowly down away.
Wrapped in clothes of blood stains alone and cold to cry.
This space around squeezed.
I've died.

Further away from you I've been.
Now so close to touch the hand.
But I recede while your face bleeds when you cry.
Haunted by a spirit that has not died.
Haunted by a spirit you question.
Flow up,
Flow out.
Open veins bleed doubt.
Spilling beat by beat from a heart of glass.
Fragile so.
It's life long past.
To the ears every beat a blast to help love pass.

Flow up,
Drift out.
But I can't help to think about the bleeding doubt of the stranger.
My soul in danger.

Drift back,
Flow down.
Standing on the edge watching him drown.
His love true.
His blood blue.

Dry eyes tear me up.
Pull me waist deep in his blood.
Pulling me nearer.
His love radiates.
As I walk through blood disintegrates.

Drift out,
Flow out.
I extend my hand and touch the face that couldn't kill this man.
Space freezes.
The air breathes.

Breathe in,
Breathe out.
I exhale the doubt to love and die by the hand of blood.

Please Stay

Creeping gently into sight, warm touch from the distant light.
So far away you have been from this distance.
My presence I send.
So full of good with an evil heart, one day to tear us apart.
When you see it too you'll turn these grey skies blue.
So I'll stay, my presence with you, just for the day.

Come take this pain away from this sky so grey.
I'm screaming to you, please listen to what I say.
Flat top clouds in the sky, tell me your alibi.
What reason for this dark emptiness can you say?
Please go away.

Disappearing out of sight, cool breath felt from the winds might.
Farther away you have yet to go and the distance clings.
You pass so slow.
You're so lost without my presence there, into emptiness I stare.
When you feel it too you'll do what you have to.
So I might, know I care for you, stay for the night.

Come take this pain away from this sky so dark.
I'm screaming for you, please listen to what I say.
Vast black sky so distant, your sparks have left their mark.
What reason for this dark loveliness can you say?
Please go away.

Lost without you, you're lost without me and I need you here with me.
Wash this night away and bring back the skies that cry for a warm touch from the 
distant light.

My Intangible Love

Whisper to me, in my ear so deep tell me where you are.
Tell me the story of where you did and how you came so far.
I'll breath you in unwillingly and suck the sweetest taste out of you that you can 
throw away.
I'll leave you and love you unexpectedly.
Live in my lungs and I'll breath you out piece by piece you'll slowly become whole.
With every breath I expose you more and more.
So beautiful how you are when you whisper to me.
Keep loving every breath exhaled out of me.
I know I will.
For every time I breath, you I'll see and I'll know you'll always love me for giving 
you the ability to breath.
There you are, the most beautiful scar ever burned into me.
Touch me and take me away.
So far away to where into space the sky bleeds.
But you won't.
You can't.
You have walked right through me, so with one breath I'll lay you to rest invisible 
again.
Forever only to me.

Blood Green Sails

Take me to the end of this life which bends
towards the sky.

Leave a trace behind like someone would find
at the scene of a crime.

Listen to the distant noise and you will hear my voice
calling for you.

Saying
"Come save me from this airless space
So deep in lifelessness I'm beginning to seep"
And with one last breath I'm taken by unconsciousness
And pulled under. Locked in a wondrous slumber.

Rescue the boy you knew before someone takes you
And puts your breath away.

Get out of that hell quick before into it you slip
And for never return.

Follow the inner noise and you will hear my voice
Calling to you.

Saying
"Come save me from this airless space
So deep in lifelessness I'm beginning to seep"
And with one last breath your taken by unconsciousness
And pulled under. Locked in a wondrous slumber.

The trap has been set, now we will let
Wannabe heroes drop in.

And in their heads they will hear the voice that said
What you have heard

Saying
"Come save me from this airless space
So deep in lifelessness I'm beginning to seep"
And with one last breath I'm taken by unconsciousness
And pulled under. Locked in a wondrous slumber.

Saying
"Come save me from this airless space
So deep in lifelessness I'm beginning to seep"
And with one last breath your taken by unconsciousness
And pulled under. Locked in a wondrous slumber.
