Slipping through my hand
A million precious memories Each A grain of sand I try, I fight, I hold on tight But it's slipping through my hand For every laugh and smile And every shout or tear I try, I fight, I hold on tight But I cannot hold it here A flawed yet perfect jigsaw Of nights that turn to day I...

Slipping slowly
I don’t know when I first felt my childhood slipping slowly It was somewhere in the dark Maybe on a slushy snowy night that made me cry I’m tired of saying goodbye - He agreed It might have been some other day When my paintings taunted me alone Or when I first realized I’d one day be all...

And even if I could be just a name on your lips, slipping out with a warm smile, I would know that I did enough to protect your heart, even in the silence that separates us, I don’t know where you go, in the days that flow like rivers of time towards the unknown, Nights without stories, devoid...

Slipping slowly into the void No one's fault The consequence of years spent in silence The distance of unspoken secrets You know me...don't you...know me? Rain pelts the windows The roof My eyes Falling into indifference Headlong without a net The reality of a fire growing cold The fleeting moments of glowing embers You love me...don't you...love me? The dark creeping across the grass The windows My heart ...

Slipping
Slipping I feel it everyday pats of me slipping away. For a moment in passing all of me once seemed immortal and everlasting but now, fading like storm threatened gray clouds part of my mind slows thru the oppressive crowds. I dare not speak keeping my secret hidden and discrete while cautiously I direct my feet. Stepping thru the garden...

Slipping Off the Edge
With every fibre we try to be sure but we get beaten and broken. Nothing stops the tears when the anger is awoken. Wishing I could love myself as I was but I'm frozen. Willing to jump if only to be chosen. The only thing left to do is embrace the motion Becoming an omen That you can survive and...

I Let It Slip Away
I let it slip away, Like a feather in the wind. I didn't hold on tight enough, And now it's gone again. I loved him with a passion, That burned deep within my soul. But I couldn't make him stay, And now I'm all alone. I thought that love would conquer all, And we'd be together forevermore. But he had other plans in mind, And I...
