Okay, this is actually a song I just finished but since I'm undergoing a severe case of insomnia I figured I'd post the lyrics. Let me know what ya think. :)
Hello my love, how long has it been since I last looked you in the eye?
Since the beast of burden's hump went dry? Am I foolish to try to reconcile?
So sit a while, breath with me and talk about life over a cup of green tea.
You'll say no when I offer the honey and the silence will be an eternity.
Ain't it funny that way.
With words not yet spoken the silence is broken; it looks like your heart.
The truth is a river that makes your lip quiver and tears your composure apart.
I've become what I was with a space in between and theres something so old about seventeen, but with each passing day I'm becoming a feign for love, if you know what I mean.
And my heart does not bleed hatred anymore.
It dances to a beat with feet that are sore from wearing the tallest shoes sold in the store which were used to kick down the door so many times before.
You'd be surprised at the weight and the size of my letters.
Even with all the lies it was you in disguise but I guess that you didn't know better.
How can I preach peace when I'm at war with the guilt of missing the way I used to feel before I ever had a reason to be healed?
When I was hungry and you were a meal I could afford to steal.
How can I stay mad at something like this?
At something so beautiful as a kiss?
But, quite frankly, it isn't your lips I miss so much as the feeling of falling into the abyss of perfect bliss.
I walked to the spot in the parking lot where he brought me.
I looked off the lege, almost fell off the edge but something in the air caught me and I turned back.
~
That is it. This song is about reconciling with the world through myself, but I think the music says that much clearer than the music.
