star

i am that star that sits among the galaxy
with nothing but the vast eternity
surrounding me
it holds me tight
it's all i have to call my lover
no other
no other
i shine for all to see
their eyes look towards the sky
but they cant find me
eternity
it will welcome me
it will hold me tight
like a lover
no other
no other
i wish to join the stars
walking this cold earth is not for me
i want to be held in the arms of eternity

I am

...the girl that no one will dance with.

you tell me




You tell me it's no excuse
you're sorry
you will learn from your mistakes
yet the next day is a repeat of the last
oh little boy when will you grow up finally
when will you see beyond your own selfish pleasures
when will you understand that one day you will not dance all night
you will not drink all night
you will not smoke all night
you will not flirt all night
and after the party is done you will be alone in your bed
crying, like you did when you met me

you tell me the things i want to hear
then swindle me with excuses and anger
i give you undeniable purity and love on a golden platter
you eat from it turn around and then eat from the platter of a Dionysian God
i can't compete with such temporary spoils
i am not that shallow
i would never entertain it, i know what i offer and stand for

you tell me such beautiful hopes and dreams
you tell me that you yearn for something real
i stand before you with arms open and warm
something you can count on for the rest of your life
but when handed it you take the first opportunity that life hands you
your success and fame and glorification over takes your true beauty and you think only of pleasuring your body
when you tell me you are of the heart is this a Gypsy speaking?
your mannerism takes a sharp turn the instance you leave my side

I tell you i hurt
i go to my room and pretend i walk this earth alone
there is no one but me
no one can hurt me and i won't cry

Little boy, you tell me you want to grow up?
i must have misunderstood
