Up and Down
Your love for me came out of the blue
It was an early falls mourning
And for what you said I had little warning
I ran from your words, I ran from you
Consciousness dancing its way across the ceiling
For you I had more than feelings
Telling myself that only if God willing
Caught in my own thoughts about lives dealings
Hoping the door would open when I got to it
My stomach aching like I was having a fit
All things inside of me fell into an open pit
Caught within your sites and my answer might of gotten me hit
I had to run and hide
I was turning into knots inside
Wishing my spirit to take flight
I was left here standing and I had to fight
Hiding I was already in love there was no decision
Then I felt my brain go off on its own a get away mission
Caught there with only my feelings
And my acquaintances with love left my mind fizzin
Of being stuck in my own vision
About negligence and loves killins
And it was all I could do
Was fall down and stay up by kneeling
