The memories of our goodbye
The nights alone when the stars cried
Holding the pillow wishing it was you
The tangled thoughts of how you’re gone
Living the lyrics to the saddest song
Never speaking after having so much to say
When does it all go away
The memories of our goodbye
The nights alone when the stars cried
Holding the pillow wishing it was you
The tangled thoughts of how you’re gone
Living the lyrics to the saddest song
Never speaking after having so much to say
When does it all go away
Couldn’t stop those winds from blowing
Mountains never seemed so high
All the love we were knowing
All of a sudden, It died
Couldn’t catch that tear from falling
Would it had made a difference if I did
Couldn’t save yesterday from dying
Tomorrow had to live
Couldn’t fight the war within ourselves
Heaven was so far away
Drowning in the lies we wanted to believe
Swimming in the pain
Set fire to these cold hearts
Maybe that’s just what we need
Can’t save today from going
It has to leave
Couldn’t stop time if we tried
So we can mend the damage done
Maybe blend some smiles with the tears
So the bad days wouldn’t have won
I have no regrets
It wouldn’t help even if I did
Can’t stop today from dying
Tomorrow has to live
Broken heart
Footprints in the sand
Still fragile
Trying to put the pieces back together of who I am
You stole the days, damaged the night
Put love at war and lost the fight
The mountains we climbed
We fell down
All that’s left now
-
Are the river of tears, the silenced heart
The moon and starless night
The broken smiles left behind
Sought but cant be found
I learned to stand on my own
Learned to find my way
Broken hearts do mend, and debts to the past are paid
It only hurts for always
He’s like the music of the greatest song, playing through all the lands
And when he’s next to me, my soul cant help but to reach out and grab his hand
I’d be in a dead sleep, and if he speaks, wake right up to the sound of his voice
Just to be in his presence, is such a blessing, for me there is no other choice
+
I’d fall down a million mountains, just to be in his arms
Drown in a thousands seas, if it meant that he, would never see a day of harm
Jump out an airplane with no parachute, on the beat of his heart I’d fly
I’d give every day, just to have one moment looking in his eyes
+
When we’re face to face, I just cant help, in his eyes I stare
Even with all my mistakes, past and wrongs, he loves me like if my flaws are not there
When he touches me, a little of my breath leaves, I gasp knowing it’s a touch of love
If you ask do I want him, need him or long for him, I’ll answer all of thee above
+
I’d jump off the tallest building a thousand times in the name of love, he would do the same for me
Cry for him everyday, a million times, so a tear his eye will never see
When his ground is shaken, path set on fire, I’d fly him through the sky
I’d give everyday, just to have one moment, one moment looking in his eyes
Rain, fall through the ash of the lies of the people
Wash away these sins of stone
Mountains, move to no longer hide the truth of life
Shadows will be unveiled to show the light
Like a caged bird that finds song even in its confinement
I too shall sing
Sing through my stolen voice and tears
This is what the people shall hear
My blood may stop in the name of my oppressors
But do not think I will be of no more
Windows closed, doors nailed shut, home of no one
This life as I know it may be done
But in the smallest place where darkness resides, there can be light
Kill this body of worldly use and my soul will still have life
To shine truth on the lies, nothing will be in vain
I pray that my today won’t find your tomorrow with pain
Walk into the storm for change
Find the sun and shine it’s rays
So, in these shackles made by those voices of lies
Even in these chains of wrongs, starless nights
The truth will be painted for all to see
And when it does I’ll be there singing my song “I am Troy Davis and I am free”
He who never walks except where he sees other men’s tracks will make no discoveries
How can I love him?
He’s everything he never wanted to be
Dusty trail of a yesterday that followed him
Shadowed from a light he denied himself to see
How can I trust him?
Lied till his soul swam out from the depths of its confinement
Now he’s on a search, doesn’t know where it went
The truth is right there in his view and it has him spent
How do I love him?
He’s so sheltered and guarded by pretense and make believe
He travels back and forth from his mind to reality
Am I suppose to be there when he doesn’t want me?
How do I let go?
This pain that he feels, it shines out through his eyes
When he looks at me I no longer feel alive
And every ounce of passion I feel towards him dies
How do I help him?
He such a hopeless victim of himself
Scars fills his spirit like a sea
You ask, how do you know so much about this man
Well, its quite simple, this man is me
Our situation will never change if we dont
