All the plans we made

All the plans we made
While we lay in his bed
Sat by his fire
Lounged on his couch
While we walked on the beach
Were they all lies
Were they all lies
Does he know I slept there
Can he smell my sweat
Does he believe your lies
Like I did
Does he know you're settling
For second best
Does he believe your lies
Like I did
Does he know how much you miss me
Does he know you don't know how
To love

I invented darkness

I invented darkness
I gave birth to pain
I nurture sorrow
I cultivate disdain
My hearts been beat up so many times
Don't wear it on my sleeve
I keep it deep inside of me
Where it can not breathe

And in my deepest sorrow

And in my deepest sorrow
I find
That life has no taste

You took my hand and led me on

You took my hand and led me on
To a loving place where I felt so safe
I closed my eyes and let you lead
I left my life behind
You told me things about your life
Shared your bed and mind
Said we'd always been together
Said it would be forever
Felt your fingers slip from mine
As you kissed me and said goodbye
Backed away so light and slow
Still whispering I love you
I woke alone so all alone
Not knowing where you were
Looked into the darkness to see
You slip away in his arms

Here my love lays buried

Here my love lays buried
To fade into the past
Never again to be given so
Completely

Funeral for your love

Funeral for your love

I don't remember driving here
To the beach where we once lived
How many times did the sun rise on us
While we searched among the stones
We built a life together if only in our minds
Among the waves and tidal pools
The ocean gently groaned
I write your name
Upon a rock
And bury it in the sand
A funeral for your love
Here in my holy land

Confusion woman

Confusion woman
Can't make up her mind
Patching her house
Made of straw
Confusion woman
Living on the hill
Burning fires
Never happy with the wood

Every day is a conspiracy
They're out to get you
They're peeking through the trees
Expecting perfection
From everyone you know
Overcompensation for a life of sleaze

Keep the door open wide
For an easier escape
Keep running from pain beneath
Demanding honesty
From everyone you know
While you smile and lie through your teeth

Confusion woman
Can't make up her mind
Patching her house
Made of straw
Confusion woman
Living on the hill
Burning fires
Never happy with the wood

My rose

My rose
Got thorns bigger than any you've seen
They'll tear you up boy
I know they've ripped me to pieces
Christ they're mean
But still I come back for more
Because she's the most beautiful
Rose I've seen
The deeper they cut man the more I need
I'd rather bleed to death
Than never smell that flower again

Sorrow is just a game I play in my head

Sorrow is just a game I play in my head
I wrap myself in lonliness before I go to bed
Gave my love to a toxic woman
Manipulation queen
She got that junkie lying lifestyle
She take what she need
It's all about her babe
You believe all her lies

Fly on angel

Fly on angel
Fly away
With me or without me
It's all fine with me
For my love for you
Is strong enough
To endure
Having to let you fly away
I've seen so many suns rising
And even more setting
And not one can compare
To the beauty you posess
So if you must go
I'll be left to find
Your beauty in everything I see
You will always be a part of me
