Underneath



I've been living underground, away from the pain, away from the crowd
Drowning in my sorrows, listening to your footsteps
Haven't seen the sun in months, I don't miss it much
'Cause in the night you come alive
Lend me your hand my love, pull me out this place

I can hear your cries from the ground
And the old wounds begin to bleed again
I've turned to the bottle, but the bottles' run dry
Lend me your hand my love, give us another try

The once blue sky has turned gray
Our memories begin to fade
Love burns in the fire
An eye for an eye
But I dont mind
I dont wanna see
Might as well go blind

Time it ticks without warning
The words are sticking
Oh tonight!
Will everything be alright

Love is a city, a city of ruins
We live in the streets, of this no name town
Opposite sides of the street
No real, no fake
Nothing we can take

In time the shadows begins to creep
In time our love will become a gaping hole
That we cant fill, its the risk we take
Only for a thrill, only for truth, only for love that doesnt take place.
 
"Now & Then"


Can't seem to sleep in this deserted house
Maybe it's the drippy faucet
Or it was the unmistakeable line
Thinking about the world after I crossed it
Take me back to a time where everything made sense

I can't seem to find you when I need you the most
Locked outside, can't climb over the fence
Looking in your the blinding sun
That can't light my way way
Out of sinking sin

Lift me up, take me back home
Can't stand the feeling of being alone
I've tried to move on
But you I could never clone

Days go by so fast
I can't keep track
All I can do is think
About what I could do if I could go back

I was the theif
Who stole your pride away
You called me a liar
Baby...your preachin' to the choir

In the sky I can see you every now and then
In the moonlight I go back again
Now the day I cannot face
Gone now without a trace

I love that...that's exactly how I tend to feel.
