empty glass

someone once said
love is all you need
but it isn't enough
for her to deal with me

it wasn't enough for me to say
I'm doing my best for us
every day

because it wasn't enough
to make you stay
The look on your face says
you don't want to walk away
it isnt enough
it wasnt
love is just one thing that you need

every day i try to make it better
though i know in my heart
the sound that yours makes
when it breaks apart

because it wasn't enough
to make you stay
The look on your face says
you don't want to walk away
it isnt enough
it wasnt
love is just one thing that you need

i know that lovers sometimes
lie when they're face to face
the bottom of my glass is empty
just like this place

because it wasn't enough
to make you stay
The look on your face says
you don't want to walk away
it isnt enough
it wasnt
love is just one thing that you need

i hate to see see you leave
but i love to watch you go
even if it's away from me

Two Hearts

Two hearts, Beat together, One quickens, The other starts to lessens. Two hearts, Beat together, One louder, than the other. Two hearts, Beat together, One is fading, The other still.

'Wake Me'

Wake me, only as you drift into the cavities. And leave nothing behind to remind me. That we were never really that involved. The pictures bear no resemblance at all.

Say It Don't Say It

Say it then; While the moon Licks the floor Special with silvers We can dance On fragrant floorboards, Feet synchronised In a way our hearts Never were. Please say it; You're lying beside.

Optimist Curse

Look into my eyes And tell me one of your optimistic lies, Just something to stop my cries I don't want any more cheese with my whine.

It really all comes down to a game of how I put too much cream in my tea. How much I miss you, how much you hate me. The way my throat gets sore, when I have nothing to say.

Don't Run To Me

Don't run to me if you're scared. Don't run to me if you're afraid. Don't run to me if you're angry again. Don't run to me if you're happy. Don't run to me if you're upset.

Forever

Never say I love you, if it isn't really there. Never talk about feelings, if you really don't care. Never hold my hand, if you're gonna break my heart.

When Mrs Was Miss # 5

How can I sleep when the reason to wake is gone Why would I pray when the reason to hope is gone When could I forget when the reason to remember is gone.
