Fly Paper

I feel a presence I catch your movement In the corner of my eye Keeping its distance Features hidden With passing time Exerting tension I still grate against the pull Keeping pace with me More than company to see Hide in my shadow Deep within my wounds Hide in my shadow Brick by brick I build my tomb Exerting tension I will grate against the pull While this dissention speaks And plays the fool Every Fall the fear is always there I like to visit my despair Silent but not gone

Evaporate Drop by drop Sinking inch by inch Feel the ebb and flow As momentum slows Accumulate One by one Changing bit by bit Ivory tower test Entertains the guest Hidden in the space between the words Another dialect to learn An ounce prevents a pound of cure Sacred and mundane Articulate Word by word Standing face to face Bridges burning still In a test of wills Manipulate Step by step Twisting day by day Addicted to the fight Words as sharp as knives I see blue washing into orange and red Fanning sparks to flame Details multiply Never twice the same Assimilate Choice by choice Shrinking lie by lie False identity Keeping you from me

Downstairs up and upstairs down I dream of angels In white flowing gowns Fancy fades as earth and sky explode I should have understood What I was told Always longing for a place I'm not It has a stronger pull Than what I've got Indecision builds a bigger mess More is more but finally more is less Back and forth Between the poles Comfort in the only place I know In limbo lost Holding only possibilities Thinly stretched The synapse snaps to impasse Inside out and outside in I see too many things To know where to begin I pace the floor In search of middle ground Lost in the weeds I'm living downside up or upside down Back and forth Side by side Between the poles Comfort in the only place I know When I'm here I'm thinking there When I'm there I wonder what's going on I miss everything

Standing there abandoned And in disrepair Stranded in a question Frozen in the air Left behind to find That there is no one left to care Unsuspecting unaware Landscrape Skeletons awake to play Secret life in sins implied Chasing time for ties that blind Buried by the Landscrape Landscrape Looking in the wrong place Sleeping deep inside I'm drifting through the weeds Sweeping up the ashes Of these broken dreams Looking to the past To glance at all that might have been In between the unseen sins I'm believing & deceiving myself I can't keep carrying memories around

I can't see inside the present Staring down the road reflected in the sun More said than done I'm immersed in introspection Setting stones of speculation one by one Longing for something more Tomorrow cannot come While I wish my time away Safe in my comfort zone Ignoring cold reality I can feel the strings attaching Stumbling blocks overturning under me Scraping toward Faint rewards Fabricating milestones Living in Stately whims At a place beyond my reach Wanting - searching Scanning - yearning Markers guiding me Skating past Liquid glass On my way to something else I forget What I get Before it's what I've got Planning - tracking Clipping - posting Markers sticking to me Scraping toward Faint rewards Skating past Liquid glass Cue cards show All I know Markers pulling me

Here I am On an island once again Hoping I can stay Far away In my solitude In this place I choose Four winds raising waves As old ghosts play Dragons, dreams, and daring deeds Breathing mystery Kaleidoscope Helps me cope with insecurity Dragons, dreams, and daring deeds To soar on gilded wing Fancy free For we decree a halo for the king Here I am Reaching for the promise land Dancing on a myth I romance the past in dark embrace In my secret place In between the winds Where breath begins Dreams and daring deeds Dreams and daring deeds Dreams and daring deeds Dreams and daring deeds Dreams and daring deedsÂ

I shut out myself And the world You ignore the past Say it won't last Some mistakes will not erase Coloring all that I do and say Empty heart and crowded mind Won't make it right I hang by a thread Upside down We step off a ledge Onto the edge I lift my head I clear my thoughts And listen for words of saving grace I'm letting go of all the skeletons I chase We can co-exist Living in the Crowded Emptiness

Something else to occupy Something else to drain your energy Something more weighs on your mind Something more that's keeping you from me All these things to make me bleed Tangled up in the weeds Playing hide and seek As you fade from my view Where are you? You're not here when you should care Reaching out for your hand But it's not there Hide and seek You're not here Somewhere else is beckoning Somewhere else is hidden in plain sight Somewhere else is my retreat Somewhere else is shelter deep inside Floating on the sea Random currents moving me If I don't care I will go somewhere Rain in the morning light Dreamt a lifetime in a single night Weathered and worn Creased and torn Creased and torn Understanding comes too late Submits, comments, corrections are welcomed at webmaster@darklyrics.com TILES LYRICS
