Falling Out

Falling Out

Moribund Devotion V


I’ve given this…. As much as I can

Carried this torch for you until I burnt myself

Being a fool for you didn’t take me long

But falling out of love happened so fast.  


Snap 

With a flash you enveloped me

Surrounding me with new intimacy

Before I knew it you had assumed a place

And gotten a bit too comfortable. 


With nothing new to spark development 

And now losing forward motion

I’ve matched every move you have made

And we’ve nothing left to play. 


I’ve given this…. As much as I can

Carried this torch for you until I burnt myself

Being a fool for you didn’t take me long

But falling out of love happened so fast


Falling out, out, out

Out falling, falling 

Falling out of love

Out of love with you 


Boom

It came and went, gone with a flash 

Burning out before it could be taken in 

But where did you go, what went wrong, why’d it slow

Me Snared in a trap with nowhere to go 


Any energy left for you I spent 

To be good in my mental space 

How quick you lose pole position 

When you will see nothing else 


I’ve given this…. As much as I can

Carried this torch for you until I burnt myself

Being a fool for you didn’t take me long

But falling out of love happened so fast


Falling out, out, out

Out falling, falling 

Falling out of love

Out of love with you 


Pop

Now wide awake the dream is done

Time really wasted itself in the here and now

With nothing left here to keep pulling me in

I now fall away quicker than you came


Waisting no time distance grows between us

Once cohesive now breaking up

Our foundation was neglected 

And now it’s all grown apart 


I’ve given this…. As much as I can

Carried this torch for you until I burnt myself

Being a fool for you didn’t take me long

But falling out of love happened so fast


Falling out, out, out

Out falling, falling 

Falling out of love

Out of love with you 


…I just wanted someone close

Safe and warm, To not be so alone 

But I don’t known where you’ve gone

May you fall down one day somewhere good…

28 Reasons (2nd Draft)

 28 Reasons


I kiss your brother just for a thrill

It’s not about your feelings it’s my pleasure

Just when you feel that I’m only trouble 

I will bring you esctacy that is beyond measure 

 

Ooh ooh I’m breaking every rule

Leaving every dream you hold dear,  ruined


So of the 28 Reasons that broke you down

One was enough to bring the tears

And with these 28 Reasons you’re still here now

Are you just dumb or a sadist


you say you love me, But I can see that you Feel so bad

I guess love has no logic

I'm not the devil, I’ve been called worse so I don't care

As I sooth a heart, that’s raw aching


I steal your treasure or at least your heart

All for sport I admit it’s making me bored now

How does love taste? You’d say “Sweet and bitter”

Why else would you think that I’d make your dreams come true

 

Ooh ooh I'm making every rule

you’re left with no choice but to play along

 

So Of the 28 Reasons what makes you pray

That you still want me in your life.

And with these 28 Reasons that I enjoy

Watching you hurt while needing me

 

you say you love me, But I can see that you Feel so bad

I guess love has no logic

I'm not the devil, they call me worse so I don't care

As I sooth your heart that’s raw, aching


I swear I need you more so than ever

This deviant behavior does turn me on

It’s our little secret unless you tell

Then everyone will know of our game

 

You're in danger, but it's okay

You're a grown-up, yeah


28 Reasons of love and pain

You’re hurt but yet you’re in my bed

(Do you just love the pain?)

Of all the 28 Reasons I give to you

I wonder which will make this end

 

you say you love me, but I can see that you Feel so bad

I guess love has no logic

I'm not the devil, I’ve been called worse so I don't care

As I sooth your heart, it’s raw, aching

Damaged

Damaged 

Moribund Devotion II


If you want someone

Who’s full of life 

No misery

Then move along

If you need someone

Thats full of hope

Without sorrow

I’m not the one


Maybe once that’s who I was

But the constant abuses to my heart

Have left me someone less


But if you still want to try

I’m not the one I was 

When it comes down to it

The best me you’ll get is


Damaged


If you crave someone 

Who’ll give his all

No questions asked

Then move along 

If you long for one 

Who is a dream

A fairytale

I’m not the one. 


I remember when I was

That guy so full of hope and love to share

Just a ghost from my past


But if you still want to try

I’m not the one I was 

When it comes down to it

The best me you’ll get is


Damaged


Shattered

Broken

Ruined for lack of a better word

Damaged


Shattered

Broken

Ruined beyond repair simply

Damaged


But if you still want to try

I’m not the one I was 

When it comes down to it

The best me you’ll get is


Damaged

Childish Heart

Childish Heart

Moribund Devotion I


I'm still stuck holding on to dreams of love, fostered by fantasies

Does that sort of thing no longer exist?

Would I be were missed for not wondering

And with childlike wonder and imagination

I still dream that the fantasy exists for me


Throughout my life I’ve remained stoic

Facing challenges and failures, without flinching 

All the while I’ve been protecting a childish heart 

Still in need of developing 


Please give my childish heart

A reason to mature 

And not grow sour

In jaded disdain 

With unadulterated love


Why is something so precious and absent in the world a weakness 

I try to hide it, but it must be known 

Even though you weaponize tenderness

I will treat it as my greatest strength that I have 

Despite the world trying to turn me against it


Do you know what it is like to cry

Because you are overwhelmed with a shameless love

That radiates from deep inside a childish heart

It’s torture yet it’s wonderful


Please give my childish heart

A reason to mature 

And not grow sour

In jaded disdain 

With unadulterated love


I just want to function

Instead of overloading

When I don’t know how to deal

With the desires…

… of a childish heart


Please give my childish heart

A reason to mature 

And not grow sour

In jaded disdain 

With unadulterated love

YOU I WE (away from love)

 YOU I WE (away from love)


I have to stop treating you like a focus  when you seem to yearn to fade into obscurity  


I know it’s easier to retreat into a distraction, but sometimes you have to face reality and it’s pain


You and I aren’t we 

So only thinking of you only hurts me


We aren’t a thing 

You cannot know

I’m withering 

Away from love


The anguish you give me isn’t a deliberate choice but it still burns my very core just the same 


Nothing can excuse either of us from any damning moves going forward in this sapian mating ritual 


You and I aren’t we 

So only thinking of you only hurts me


We aren’t a thing 

You cannot know

I’m withering 

Away from love
