I thought I was your favorite trick
Seeing how my novelty's all gone
Thought I was in the clear
Karmic chips all cashed in
My sweet despair
My only love
This graveyard world
Clandestine beauty
Not sure where I am anymore
Swirling empty cities
Mindless grey people
Where did all the colors go
How will I ever find you
I'll hold on til my fingers bleed
Hurry....
 
hey tumbleweed. it's been a while.

"i'll hold on til my fingers bleed...hurry"

still giving me a reason to kiss ass poetry wise, i see.
 
Serendipity was never your cup of tea
It's getting late again and I'm thinking how I lost you again
I beg the sun not to leave me alone with my thoughts
I hope that maybe you might be thinking of me..
Even if it's to curse my name out loud
Your silver shame
My broken ideas
Our bottle of lies
Darling you're with me til the end of my days
Baby you haunt me everytime the sun falls from the sky

Wonder how lonely the moon is tonight
Got no place to go to but down
I guess, I feel that way too
Your silver shame
My broken ideas
Our bottle of lies
Darling you're with me til the end of my days
Baby you haunt me everytime the sun falls from the sky
 
I think we woke up fighting
Not sure what makes you wanna hurt
Say you're not sure about the future
Honey, I can barely handle the past
I light up the last cigarette
Because I can
There's really no point in shouting,
I won't hear a word
I was in the middle of a dream when I noticed you were crying
Baby, you're raining so hard I can hardly get a word in
Got 20 dollars we'll have ourselves a time
I know just where to go
We'll buy some smokes and some whiskey and find the nearest edge
We'll dance and hang on for another night
I know just where to go
Where we can kiss the stars
Where the sun can't see us
Baby, you're raining so hard I can hardly breathe
Spent our last dollar on whiskey
The trucks running on empty
We'll make it I'm sure
I'll carry you if we don't
I'll carry you for the rest of our lives
I know just the place
So we can be alone
I love you in jeans
I love you in blues
I've got some to spare
Honey, you're raining so hard it keeps me afloat
At least for another night....
 
Now you've finally got everything you need,
You're not sure where to go to throw it all away,
She's got the moon at her feet,
When the sun comes calling, she's busy
I tell you, I never felt this way before,
Never loved nobody that rained that way before,
She walks like wildflowers sway in the wind,
She's got it all figured out alright
With my back to the south,
Maybe I'll find my way too
She said, "You better find it quick, I've got other lovers too"
I put on my boots and said "Darling, I've got somewhere to go, I'll write you when I get there..."
She's got it all figured out alright..

It's too early to feel this alone
I get to work an hour early
I desperately need the distraction
Just when I was sure you taken by the clouds,
I get caught in your undertow again,
Yeah, you know just where to rain
I know you're not stupid
I guess you have no heart instead
Lord, I'd do anything to not feel so alone
So sick of square one
Honey why won't you let me move on
Just when I thought you were long gone
I get caught in your undertow again
Yeah, you know just where to rain
 
Prayed I would find you
Before my blues found me
How strong do I have to be?
To tired to sleep, both night and day
Jesus, don't leave me alone with my demons
They've got so much to say
While last time we talked, we both walked away
Feel so goddamned blue
Shaking, like I need a fix
Can't remember the last time I was hungry
Jesus, don't leave me alone with my demons
They've got so much to say
Feeling so tired, I think I may know a way....
 
So I talked to the other guy today
Denied, everything, denied
You know how I get
I guess you weren't afraid to tell
I've never seen cowardice at point blank
I'd laugh if I wasn't so goddamned depressed
Fuck, I gave you everything I had
But I'm gone, babe, too far gone
Cheers babe
One more night of misery
Cheers girl
One more night of sweet revenge
Cheers darling
You'll cry when I'm done with him
Cheers......to fists and cigarettes
Whiskey coursing through my veins
Lord, I love being numb
Cheers love, to dirty kisses and broken glasses
One drink for every time you've lied to me
Oh sweet girl you bring the worst out in me everytime....
 
thought about calling you last night
when the whiskey hit my head
you know drinking thins the blood?
considered bleeding to death
with a cigarette in my mouth
yeah that's how I wanna die
strangely enough this is the best I've felt in a long long time
guess I'm just funny
I sit there counting the days til the next storm
god, I need the rain
that way I can way I can walk around all angsty and think of you
I'm so tired
so so tired, babe
I'm going to bed and sleep til I feel like waking up

this line is so damn cute. it makes me crazy.
oh, and tumbleweed, don't bleed to death until you finish the whiskey, ok?

~la vicia.
 
Tomorrow,
I can't fucking wait to start again,
I can't wait to know better,
I can't wait to forget you,
I can't wait to drink all the whiskey in new england,
I can't wait to feel desperately lonely,
I can't wait to be stereotyped,
I can't wait to find myself,
I can't wait to fall for you again,
I can't wait to get into a fight over stupid shit,
I can't wait to find out whether I'm worth a damn,
I can't wait to kick open the door,
I can't wait to conform for a while,
I can't wait to freeze my ass off at night,
I can't wait to take advantage,
I can't wait to be underestimated,
I can't wait to continue my pissing contest with God,
I can't wait to start living my life
I can't wait to find you.......
 
It's alright to step into the light
I'm used to running through the dark
My eyes burn on breaking through
I got no bottles to hide behind anymore
I ain't got no tears to cry no more
I just want to get on with my life
Before I stop giving a fuck
Out here there's so many trees
So many places to hide from my troubles
Why can't I be happy?
Lord, why won't I forget you
I noticed there's no stars out here, just darkness
I'm trying really hard to stay focused
I'm bleeding myself to stay bright
I'm not going to fucking burn out anytime soon
Lord, you're either with me or against me
I'm not going anywhere til it all makes sense....

Well it's another windy sunday
Hell everyday feels the same
I'm breezing through my smokes
Like some slow burning suicide
That's what kissing you felt like
Feeling lonelier than usual
Night's greedy arms engulfing the sun
Leaves me jealous of it's embrace
The stars burn out nobly
I know exactly how they feel
Last time I looked outside
The trees swayed gently in the wind
Indifferent to the burning world
I know exactly how they feel
I can smell the thick ocean air
Coming in through the emissary rivers
Coursing through the earth like the lifeline's in my soul
Waiting for the epiphanies in your eyes
The secrets of your soul
Lie untouched in my wispful memory
Sweet sweet girl
You broke my heart
And I couldn't love you more for it...
 
Oh darling
It's getting late
Too late to sleep
You left the room
As quickly as you came in
Take all the sweetness too
Leave me in the dark with the smoke and tears
I've seen too much with my tired eyes
Lived too many days with my youth
Wasted too many nights with you
So bring me a candle and a glass
I'll toast to your shadows
Still hanging on to your ghost, love
Your memory keeps good company
As long as the whiskey doesn't run dry
I'm happy
I remember how we used to smoke and dance til the moon gave out
I smile and pour another as the sun comes up
Your shadow's gone too...
 
She wore wildflowers in her hair
To match her cinammon smile
My baby my tart
Bittersweet kisses and long nights
Oh we had ourselves a time
Just livin and dancing through the days
Bittersweet kisses and long nights
The hell with the consequences
Rain'll never catch us now
Nights turned into day
Oh how I loved my girl
Rode with the devil at sundown
Slept til the stars came a callin'
Had ourselves a good time...
 
Fog's lifting
Sun's washing up on the shore of the day
It's time for me to go, love
I make coffee
I take your smokes
Can't find my zippo
I find a gin soaked napkin
Write "my sleeping baby blues..."
Can't think of anything else
It's easy to leave
Impossible to not come back
I'll get sick of being alone
Will you open your door again
Will you let me into your bed
Will you hold me when I'm crying
Will you ever wise up and leave, girl
I'm no good, I told you when we met
I love that you smiled and kissed me
I'll always love you for trying
"my sleeping baby blues"....
 
Do you give a fuck?
How much are you worth today?
How far are you willing to go?
Would you give up everything
I didn't think so
Been raining all week
Could it have been a better life
Could you have seen it coming
Could you have been mine

It's raining stars out tonight
The air's heavy and lifeless
Feels like it did when I died
I'm not sure if I gave it my all
I'd like to think I did
I have no regrets except the ones you gave me
Just broken glass and flowers from your hair
I loved drinking with you til dawn
Just meaningless gorgeous chatter
Could I have seen it coming
Could you have been mine
 
Everything's different now
Yet you're still the same
Still felt devoted to you
Even though you've broken me too many times
I can't stand my bullshit chivalry
That's what you do to me
I can't help but be indebted to you for the sorrow I've drowned in
I wouldn't trade any of that for anything
I found the higher ground
I don't want it
I want to swim through your gutters
I want to be in the mud
I want to embrace hell
If that's where you'll be
I'll follow you down
Stay with you while we both drown
I don't want you to face anything alone
I won't rescue you if you don't want me to
Let's just stay a while....
 
hola, you.
it's wonderful, as usual.

"I found the higher ground
I don't want it
I want to swim through your gutters
I want to be in the mud
I want to embrace hell
If that's where you'll be
I'll follow you down
Stay with you while we both drown"

i love that so much.
