Forever Color Us Red

Verse 1
Something splendid that will forever color us red
Together there are no more missing pieces to fill in
But there is this wall that is getting taller and taller
We can still hear each other and we will not falter
Chorus
This is just not something we can live without
This is something we must fight for
And with every barricade that would inflict doubt
We must carry each other over
As big as any blow may seem
Our love will keep it all intact
To give up on all of this
Is to give up on everything
Verse 2
So a plan that has been formulated for years fell through
But we will catch it and change it and make all of our dreams come true
Let us first catch our breath before we dive again
We’ll get deeper and deeper until we reach the bottom
Verse 3
Breaking down are both of us
Rest, rest, let our hearts rest
Although never die
We will bleed until we fill up and then this will explode

Torn And Tossed

Came home, unexpectedly, to a door knob turning in my hand
I heard my mother say, “she called”, and I ran
My hands were shaking as I recalled how to dial a phone
Here it is, here it goes, the end of being alone
She said, “I was so scared before, but now I’m not anymore”
And all I could muster up was, “that’s good”
I guess things like this bring a loss of words
I talked to her as she gathered up here things from drawers
And the beeping from the open car door pierced my composure
So she drove away and found a place to stay
She wasn’t scared anymore
So I went to the station and purchased my round-trip ticket
And got on the bus talking to her with a sick feeling of spirit
On the first stop, I receive a call, “they found me”
I turn back around, never more let down, and all I could do was weep
And with that everything surfaced that I feared
Everything that she seemed to make disappear
I rang out my eyes from my loss
The lifetime achievement that I once held, torn away, now tossed
She said, “despite everything, I hope you’ve been smiling a lot
don’t worry too much
We’ll always be here for each other.
I love you”
And it was as if my harness had loosened its’ knots
I was free to begin this plunge of my law
I took the letter I wrote back to you and tried to make a song
But it wasn’t music and it wouldn’t allow itself to be anything but raw
And now I’m so scared to be alone by myself
I’m sitting here on the bed that was to be yours
Inside the room, that too, was to be yours
This perpetual state of emptiness creates a dangerous tension
And now this story has reached a brand new peak
Of optimism and self-mutilation

I wish I wanted to kill myself so I would feel less hopeless
Atleast that way I would have options to relieve this tension
I am more exhausted than I have ever been from this stress
For the first time I’m keeping myself in check
Seeking comprehension
It’s much easier when this doesn’t exist
Staying alive, with eyes wide open takes everything I can give
Why should I even try if no one else understands how hard it is?
The wings of self-pity soar high enough to forget
I’ve gathered all these problems and I’ve dealt with them how an alcoholic drinks
She made me be able to forget about them at times
And now she’s really gone they’ve stolen so much of what I think
And I feel like I deserve just one break
I could fill this hole with a heart
I feel in love with her, at first, because of the blue
I have a real sense of shame tied to the idea of filling that part
But I also have a real longing to
I’ve avoided the chemicals that can only bring harm
And my blood only so occasionally seeps from hands
Writing can only reflect the words with a bit charm
I feel as if I need another soul in which to band
