Rush To Act

If I keep the mystery surrounding everything
Well, I think I’ll be just fine, waiting for your swift reply.
The discretion you have shown, and for reasons I won’t know,
Has taken its cue from the spots where you bruised
And turned coward your army tonight.
I didn’t want a salesman’s life still I creep towards your door.
I’ve got my plans and sacrifice. Who else would want more?
It’s a rush, so I rush to act.
So unsure, yet still bound to track.
If you say that you’re not looking back it’s a lie.
You’re too scared to give me some of your time.
Pacify this child’s heart in what’s left of my bit part.
It’s easy to believe that you played it smart
When you truly neglect to start.
The offers; I cant rescind, so I hide them away.
Re-cast the mold where I begin, and teach me what to say.

Sun Goes Down

Would it be a sin if I gave it up,
And took everything that I was told to love,
And I played the games that were asked of me,
While believing with my whole heart that I was sound asleep?
Now my currency of minutes has been wasted on a diet of defeat.
Tell the crowd I’ll leave it be.
But why am I warmer when the sun goes down?
All the circumstance that has served me well,
It keeps falling short of what I’d hoped to sell.
But surprises take hold and they envelop you.
When the time has come and I show up, I’ll be enveloped too.
So tired of the noise outside my mind,
I could never see you coming even if I tried.
Does it hurt so much to try?
Why am I warmer when the sun goes down?
I can hear you breathing when you’re quiet as a mouse.
I’m fine with the paths that have chosen me.
The failed attempts doomed to repeat.
A reformation meant to be in time. But I’m fine.
I swear to god I’m fine with all the lies. Somehow I swear I’m fine.

Stay

Think I said it all before I got here.
How many times can I be underwater,
And keep myself from drowning in
Waves of subtlety that are pushing to bust right through my skin?
You couldn’t be a better sight, for me to fall, for me to fight.
I’ll do what’s best, apologize, and say a prayer to end all time.
I’ve seen it all before.
I will always be catching up with myself.
A better man could be a better help.
So many sleep in open air,
And poison everything they have without a thought or care.
I shouldn’t speak or figure out that I’m a slave to my doubts.
If I believe, and set it off, will chemistry still be enough?
I’ve seen it all before; pretty soon you’re out my door.
All that I want to say is better left inside of me,
Because it just seems, like you’ll just fade away.
All that I want to say is better left inside of me
‘cause when it appears, I just want you to stay.
So I sink and crash, but never matter.
I’m my best for when you catch me after.
And I’ll create the perfect tale of sacrifice, where I prevail.
With hidden words and lullabies, I’ll bend the truth to fit my lies.
