Jane Doe
Dear, I'll stay gold just to keep these pasts at bay To keep the loneliest of nights from claiming you And to keep these longest of days from waking you For I felt the greatest of winters coming And I saw you as seasons shifting from blue to grey That's where the coldest of these days await me And distance lays her heavy head beside me There I'll stay gold, forever gold

You were most beautiful as the damage and the trauma Pounding hard with battered wings of destiny You were my last great war You were my heaven ablaze Riddled with faults and fractures And I spent my last of days burning my oldest of bridges And I spent my last of nights killing the best of friends In the company of thieves, liars, beggers and whores I'll lay waiting, just waiting for my time to come

That's where they die That's where she outshines That's where they die That's where they die That's where she outshines That's where they die I'll never burn... I'll never burn... And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch I heard that phone call My hesitation Everything, I felt Everything you need I heard that phone call The hesitation Everything I am Everything you need Splinters of sentence And heartless advice Nothing's changed, nothing's changed But these days... But these days entwined But these days... entwined That's where they die That's where she outshines That's where they die That's where they die That's where she outshines That's where they die And now they're born... And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch And like that heart got in the way Like that true lost fire The child of burden and rage Like the distance in your touch Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance and meaning... Distance I'll become The lost cause Like the distance In your eyes Like the years We burned down

Cheap lips, soft eyes, lost in the most blinding lights As cold as those first nights alone As the second best he'll become Sleep deep, girl, dream well That night, I think he cried himself to sleep Just maybe, he felt more than we could ever know And I think he pulled that trigger to empty that memory I think he cut the weight to end the floods of you Let him soar, let him ride as budding gravestones do Just sleep, girl, just dream well

I have bled and I have given The longest of rivers and the longest of ropes And you're not grasping and my light is sinking on the horizon Knee deep among your wreckage and uncertainty With anguish my crown and heartbreak my throne I lay claim to this day - No love, no hope I've lost count of the second chances I lay claim to this day - No love, no hope

Those nights we had, and the trust we lost Those nights we had, and the trust we lost Those nights we had, and the trust we lost Those nights we had, and the trust we lost (It all reminds me) (It all reminds me) (Of the sleep that fled) (And the heart we lost) Just how callous and heartless the true cowards are And I write this (For the loveless) For the loveless (And for the risks we take) For the risks we take (I'll take my love) To my grave (I'll take my love) To my grave (For the loveless) For the loveless (And for the risks we take) For the risks we take (I'll take my love) I'll take my love (I'll take my love) To my grave As tired and worn it is I'll take my love to the grave I'll take my love to the grave I'll take my love to the grave I'll take my love to the grave I'll take my love to the grave I'll take my love to the grave

Death to cowards, traitors, and empty words To those adorned with the touch of rose petals And the blessed gift of forgetfulness For these are your years and days to outshine Push on and soar higher This is your memory, your everything, and the in-between Push on and soar higher Death to traitors, cowards, and empty words Death to traitors, cowards, and empty words Death to traitors, cowards, and empty words Death to traitors, cowards, and empty words

Death was just a simple glance across a dim lit room And those eyes did it Those three words did it Those three words killed him And I surrender to it all Between you and me, I surrender to you Forgive me for the sadness And the bringing of you down I just needed a lover and I needed a friend And there you were Running from forever like all the rest Three simple words bled me dry Three simple word bled us dry, bled us dry I love you

And I write this to you my dear For your eyes alone I'm out of heart and these tanks are low So cast your days to flame And set your phoenix to flight Let her turn to ash Among those flourescent lights Let your love drift deeper Let her wings catch the sky Just remember my name, girl And remember what died

She burns as bright as the sun And she falls darker than night She shines as light as these days And she fades faster than time Phoenix in flames

In the want, the need, and this desperation You'll find me as the time-bomb As the last great stand in this history When all our roads have been travelled And all have come to a most bitter end Today I thaw

These floods of you are unforgiving Pushing past me spilling through the banks And I fall Faster than light and faster than time That's how memory works At least in the dark where I'm searching for meaning When I'm just searching for something I want out Out of every awkward day Out of every tongue tied loss I want out Out of the burdening night sweats Out of the rising seas of blood Lost in you like Saturday nights Searching the streets with bedroom eyes Just dying to be saved Run on girl Run on
