Five of Eight

Misdirection
Copouts thrown
Cheap scapegoats
Techno groans

Engines rumble
Emotions tumble
My hands; they fumble

Rocket missfires
Screams of the tires
As we come to hault
My lips taste of salt

Conversate 
Congregate
Spend a little time

Compensate 
Don't be late
Dwelve inside your mind

Claims i staked
Had you pegged
But still you had declined

Broken heart
Wasted art
Yet still my hands are tied

Tried to deny
The feelings i hide
Yet I set them all free

So you possibly,
Could let yourself see
You never needed me

A toy just a lust
Avoid you I must
Alone again.  I have to be.

Now we are lost
A winter frost
Still, every rose must die

Five of Eight Two

Wont you please loose
My neck in this noose
A terrible mole 
Digs deep in my soul
she leaves a dark hole
So fill it with pain
It's all that remains
There's nothing left said
When a dream is just dead
So toss it away
For another someday
It's just how it's played
This slow painful game
Left with the stain
An image in my brain
Of what might have only been
It's not what you say
But how you display 
The way that you are
My toes in the tar
On a freshly paved lot
In the summer so hot
Undone by my love
I'm dreaming of
