Pockmarks

Pockmarks on moon's skin, you are sitting inside your car
The frozen frame in the night
Wondering just how far you'd be able to drive, the arsenic pen droops from your mouth
Trust is a weakness, lies enticed you like a siren's serenade made of cyanide
Should listen to your mind, "if it's too good, just run"
It's a flytrap waiting to go off
No more waiting
No more wasted time
Pockmarks on moon's skin, you are driving 'round in the night
Phone vibrating in the glovebox
Afraid of leaving but afraid to stay around
It's time to fight, jump into the fire
You're still thinking out loud "all this time I was blind"
"I'll say it first, it's over, I'll never run back into your Venus arms"
It's detox time, no parting words, your patience has run out
No more waiting
No more wasted time

Planespotting

As I go through these photobooks and dusty old diaries
I can't help but look back on all those special memories with pride
You were likely my best friend back then
Bottles as part of the furniture
In many ways we were quite different
I was into gleaming clothes and films, you were into drugs
I liked to play calm like Clint, you were the impulsive one
Canny nagging while acting manly
"Please don't mix up with that crowd", I said
They'd never pick you up from the gutter
If you ever ended up in that sad state of mind
Primary school's funny like that, volatile yet so fragile
Pint-sized minds spotting planes after school waiting for the ride
"We'll always be bros" we'd shout across the road
The onus, onus is on me to tell our frail tale
As time passed and I passed my exams you were not often around
I thought earth had swallowed you, eventually I left the town
Years turned to decades, I found myself a new home down south
Until one day it hit me: I'd started missing your scowl
With eagerness I dialed your numbed and called, no response
After days I got a call back and my heart nearly stopped
Waves of life had pulled you underwater claiming your life
I'm still reminded by the airplanes in the sky
The onus is on me to tell our frail tale

Everything & Nothing

Your 80-pound fairytale
For too long I've, for too long I've watched from the sidelines as dreams corrode your mind
And stains on the sheets won't fade, no
I have to find my, I have to find my courage, this won't cut it anymore
I've watched you shrink away
Trying to fade like, trying to fade like a fragile firefly when you are only human
You've got everything and nothing
Dents and cuts that just won't heal, no
You think you're nothing, well ain't that something
When you're really everything to me
Everything to me
We're in it, we're in it, we're in it together
Everything, nothing
You've got everything and nothing

Time Stands Still

As time stands still
And the world's asleep
I can feel the heat
It's you and me
Since I laid my eyes on you
The secret's been stuck with us like glue
But our love's slowly building our tomb
It comes to life only 'round fullmoon
Yes, I should have been home by now
The passion's too strong to slow down
We know this has gone on for too long
Shh, did you hear that
What was that sound?
As time stands still
And the world's asleep
I can feel the heat
It's you and me
