book 2 - february 2000

5 years down the line
further apart
red beacon
cast so free
tears
sound
Five years
spirit words
better now?
dreampt last night
died for you
Maybe he's better off worse


Surrounded by the pain
Today's the day
+ some how I'm not silent
Though I know it's for the best


5 years down the line

5 years down the line
You came out the blue again
As few words as there were before
Once not needed, now needed more
+ seconds that could never be again
Were wasted away


Think I missed the revolution
Whilst I was sleeping
Can you tell me where to stand?


Glad about your weight loss...
...I'm sure it's a weight off your mind


Further apart

Further apart
In distance + time
But nothing compare to forever

Bring you together?
As it drove us apart
Will you find another always?

No turning back
So take your sorroundings
I'll be the centre of nothing


Red beacon

Red beacon calling
I can't look away
Can't ignore
The blood on the page
Laid flat before me
Giving everything
Wraps red ribbons round my eyes


Cast so free

Cast so free
On this lonely ocean
Say you're looking for the right time
Waiting for te perfect one
Used to be so easy
But now the stakes are so high
So maybe we can be wrong together


tears

The tears they feel real
Does that make things better?
I can't stop the bleeding
Despite all the pressure
And I can picture the frame
I'd like to reside in
Caught for a second in time


sound

Lift me up
Sweat me out
Give me sound

Blind with colour
Light with passion
Soul with melody

Body of one
That animal rush
Motion emotion


Five years

Five years
Did you give
Or did I just take?
Did you break my heart?
Did it never work?
But you gave me yours
+ I wasted it away
Such a gift
But only a loan
Only alone


Spirit words

Spirit here is burning out
So empty inside
So much to release
+ if I had the words
I'd write them
But instead I'll
Use those I know
Repeat as if scratched
On the inside of my mind
The emotions extracted
From darkness mine


Better now?

Better now than tomorrow
If it goes to the wall
You don't have to follow
The deep dark pit you hate
Is your escape

They say that she's pretty
But she's not so smart
So keep closed tight
Look after your heart
I know the future seems so far away
But it's just another day


Dreampt last night

Dreampt last night that you ran to me
I was barefoot in a far off city
You said "Is there anywhere we can go?"
Is there anywhere we can't?

Chasing the sun, somehow so together
I heard you call, did you think I'd forget'y?
I said I know a place deep down below
But you got to tred careful


died for you

I said I'd die 4 u
so why d'you have to kill me?
I said don't lie to me
So why d'you have to tell me?
The words that took so long to say
The words can't be unsaid
Forever nomore
Be sure
Forever premature
Be sure
Forever is a very long time
Everlasting (always the last to know)


Maybe he's better off worse

Maybe he's got fewer rules than me
Maybe he's a little bit more free
Maybe he's got fewer goals
Less places to go
But now I'm here
I'd rather go away

Maybe he's got issues
He's a little bit more real
Maybe he's got style
But I only want to be me

Maybe me I cared too much
Maybe we just shared too much
Maybe I thought too much
Maybe he doesn't think at all

Maybe he'll crash + burn
+ never care at all
Maybe he'll just never plan
So never fail at all

Maybe I made choices
I didn't see were there
+ he's see choices
+ chooses to ignore them

+ maybe he's devotion
Cause he's nowhere else to go
+ maybe you're happy with him
It's easier through smoke
Maybe when you're sober
Love couldn't be enough

Maybe love just had you trapped

Maybe not for me
Maybe not a thing that people like me do
Maybe time will tell
But time has all just stopped
Static ever falling

Maybe flew too high + had to fall
Maybe shouldn't fly at all
Maybe too much poison in my head
Maybe all the word's can't be unsaid

Maybe you just knew me too well
All the honesty, the heavens + the hell
Maybe you wanted to be yourself
With out someone to watch
Maybe you don't need someone to hold your hand

Maybe much too strong
Said you did all for love
Maybe do it all for fun
Or maybe something fragile

+ Maybe if I loved you forever
You'd have nothing left to prove
and nothing left to hope for

+ maybe you can explore elswhere
Because you know I'll always be here

maybe everlasting love could seem so dull

+ maybe you got too close
It took so long to tell me
+ maybe it took so long
Cause he had no rules to break
There was no line to cross
Just a life to walk away
