stop and go

if i don't say this now
i will surely break
as i'm leaving the one
i want to take
forgive the urgency
but hurry up and wait
my heart has started to...
separate...

there now
steady love
so few come and don't go
will you
won't you
be the one i'll always know
when i'm losing my control
the city spins around
you're the only one
who knows
to slow it down.

when you're dreaming with a broken heart
then waking up
is the hardest part

you roll out of bed
and down on your knee
and for a moment
you can hardly breathe
wondering if you were really here
are you standing in my room
no you're not

do i have to fall asleep
with roses in my hand
would you get them if i did...
no you won't
cuz you're gone gone gone gone gone...

looking for something i've never seen
alone and i'm in between
the place that i'm from and
the place that i'm in
a city i've never been
i found a friend or should i say a foe
said just a few things you should know
we don't want you to see
we come and we go
here today
gone tomorrow

we're only taking turns
holding this world
it's how it's always been
when you're older
you will understand

if i say who i know it just goes to show
you need me less than i need you
take it from me
we don't give sympathy
you can trust me trust nobody
but i said you and me
we don't have honesty
the things we don't want to speak
i'll try to get out
but i never will
traffic is perfectly still

when i'm older
i might understand.

seem like 25 won't do the trick.

i declare
that holidays have ended.
the only word to describe it is...
short.

time to stop thinking
and start again.
