Laureate
El Poeta
I see you, feel you, but I’m touching a wall
Blank and emotionless, cold to the touch
Trapped in this corner with nothing at all
I never knew I could love you this much
You’re teasing, you leave me, guess nothing is real
Isolated in this box, suffocating with grief
No chance to appeal, after I told you how I feel
So many directions, don’t know what to believe
I can’t take it! I’m breaking, the fuck do I do?
Slowly disappearing behind the screen door
Never quite sure if I should chase after you
Emotions are torn, I can’t ever want more
I stare, you don’t care, omitting false hope
Knot in my stomach, ends looped on my neck
Your words start to pull, the rope starts to choke
Heart and soul leave me, with nothing left
Violins shatter towards their deaths,
Hearts crumble to the sound of man,
A noose is tied around our necks,
As the guitar falls, with an awful slam.
Golden wings; they cease to fly,
Fail to reach their destination,
Earth tumbles with a lonely cry,
As we bleed our sanity to our own dear nation.
Slice an apple, to reveal it's mould,
Take my heart as a sign of sleaze,
Give in to the blistering cold,
Silent lover, release me please.
It burns as I fight my own dear desire,
The night catches alight,
As my soul embraces fire
So I cast away my pain out of sight.
