Little girl smiled today
You thought you were too jaded
You thought you couldn't shine anymore
Little girl you blind me when you do

There's oceans in your eyes
Raging storms and lonely winds
In swelling seas of wisdom beyond your years
Let me drown in them
Let me dream of walking into the sea
Let me drown in your blue eyes
I don't care about treasure or pearls
Just wanna feel life slip from me
I want to drown and be set free

I'll find you child
Carry you out if you want me to
Take you away from your demons
Only darling if you want me to
Your blue eyes baby
They light my way
Your blue eyes baby
They give me faith
Why child won't you let me rescue you
You're lost now love, we'll find a way...

Its cold this morning
I stumble to my car
Swerving home through the dawn
I want to let go of the wheel
Resignation
Desperation
My dysfunctional inspiration
How could eyes so blue be so cruel
You lost your soul, sweet thing
Probably around the time I lost God
Two disillusioned dreamers don't make a right
I tried angel, I really tried to turn the other cheek
I think I'd rather walk away and mourn you now
My beautiful baby with pale blue eyes
My beautiful tragedy
I love you for burning out in my arms
My beautiful baby with pale blue eyes
What can I do to save you from yourself...

EdgeVox

Tired of the lingering rain
Tired of the storm in my head
Tired of blazing through my time with whiskey and smokes
Tired of waiting for you
I woke up in your broken glass bed
With your rusty nail eyes full of tears
Where did it all go wrong
Time loves to drag when I'm being dragged on your cobbled words
I love that you have no mercy
Oh fuck all
Woe is me
Hand me the bottle

beegee

i love that you have no mercy
oh fuck all
woe is me
hand me the bottle




exactly.

On Winters & Broken Hearts

Hello again,
Your confusion is no good here,
It's a pale wind stacked against your caress,
Sweet skin, a tart's smile and a suicide king,
I missed you baby
I missed your stray soul

It's disorienting to feel happy,
Meeting people is easy,
I'm so popular,
I'm nostalgic for misery,
So glad you came,
My darling, my lullabye of pain
Everything's alright
Sweet slivers of cold skin
Broken hearts and warm whiskey
We've always made quite the pair
Oh how I've longed for your kiss,
Kill my indifference with your eyes,
Sweet Winter lips transcend my sorrows,
Embrace me in your rivers of melted snow
I can't wait to drown
I can't wait to escape my mediocrity
I can't wait to feel nothing
I can't wait for your blissful nonchalance
Death and winter's kiss,
My oldest and strangest old friends
You're most welcome here tonight...

EdgeVox

Never knew you cried in your sleep
Never knew you loved me as much as you did
Never knew you thought of me

Never knew you couldn't deal
Never knew life had torn you down
Never knew you needed me

Never knew you wanted to
Never knew you felt as lonely as me
Never knew you had it in you

Never knew you hated God
Never knew you forgave me
Never knew you never looked away

I love you
I'm there for you
I'd kill for you
I'll protect you
I'll carry you
I'd die for you
I'll never leave you
I'll never look away
I'll save you

EdgeVox

Last call
Watch the smoke drift out
Into the snowy boulevard
Shuffling my feet past your doorway
You stand there in the dark with a black halo
We're no good for each other
I know I'm no good for you
She laughs, lust and carelessness meet the night sky
Throwing silken caution to the wind
I lean in drunkenly
You taste like redemption
I need some more..

beegee

"you taste like redemption"

i love this one so much.
this is your best, texas. your very best.

Sometimes I can't help but feel
Like a "fresh start" is too forgiving a term
It's all worth a damn
You can't always articulate with bittersweet words and heartsick melodies
Better than not saying a damn thing at all

EdgeVox

Mistress, lay down your arms
Oh sweet lady of dusk bearing sorrow and twilight
Let me bear some of your burden
You're not alone
Nor will you ever be

Darling, I've forgotten how loneliness tastes
How God, our fickle forgetul lord, picks favorites
You don't deserve to know cruelty
You don't deserve to know misery
Baby it matters
Baby you matter
I would die without you
I would tear down the sky
I would burn the fields
You're not alone
You're not alone
Nor will you ever be
Not while I draw breath

On Love & Death

Mothers of the fallen,
Weep no more
Fathers of defeat,
You failed no one
You gave all,
You exceeded God's expectations
I leave here with no rancor
Regrets, I parted ways with his company
Long before the sun set on your eyes

On lost loves and what could have been,
I meant what I said
I would have never changed
Regardless of how many times we've been crossed by Fate
I leave here wanting
Yet strangely satisfied spiritually

I loved you all
I did the best I could
And I expect nothing less from each of you
Living vicariously through your triumphs
Never waste a moment's peace thinking what could've been
Rather know that I feel like I've lived a thousand years

My friends and lovers
My greatest mistress, Death
Embrace me now
Let us toast throughout the fall
Dance through the flames
Sing with the ashes
And love, yes always love
Love every moment of the storm
As I walk into the sea
One last time...

EdgeVox

Aunque nunca regreses, corazon
Tu cielo celeste me llora
Amor, me cargaste mi cruz
Mientras castigando mi sinceridad
No tengo porque perdonarte nunca
Mi amor, mi religion, mi catedral
Amanece conmigo
Hasta que la luna se queme
Y nos bane de cenizas...
