you've got stained cheeks and a broken laugh
oh whats wrong my dear
did he threaten to steal your heart
and fill the gap with fear
darling darling why cant you see
that the one who will love you good is me
darling darling why are you so blind
although the tears fill your eyes
ill wipe them away
theres a shake in your voice
hesitation when you speak
oh what has he done
i notice the blood on your hips
and the quiver of your lips
I'm here
darling darling why cant you see
that the one who will love you good is me
darling darling why are you so blind
although the tears fill your eyes
ill wipe them away

Broken Heart

what if i am not what you need
what if i am just a disease
will i remain in your memory
known as your favorite melody
when you live your whole life with a broken heart
you wake up every morning wishing for a brand new start
you ask yourself what can be done
to fix the issue and soon overcome
we used to talk all the time
for you id sacrifice all my life
you hear me but you cease to listen
oh its a foolish world, a foolish world we live in
when you live your whole life with a broken heart
you wake up every morning wishing for a brand new start
you ask yourself what can be done
to fix the issue and soon overcome

Issues

when you see your dad
kneeling by his bed
with his head
burried in his hands
you can only wonder
what could be haunting him
when you see your brother
completely disappear
only to be seen
every now and then
he lives in the dark
sealed away from the pain
and when the sun
no longer shines
and when the flowers
they cease to bloom
and when the leaves
fall off their trees
you see the sickness
possessing your family
and when you see your mother
so tense
over the little things
ripping our her own hair
at a glance of the bills
only wondering how she's gonna pay them all
and when the sun
no longer shines
and when the flowers
they cease to bloom
and when the leaves
fall off their trees
you see the sickness
possessing your family

Postcards

be still my beating heart
for i do not wish to go on
someone tell me why
why everything is falling apart
you've been bending me further
sooner or later ill burn
you were supposed to be my escape plan
my bottle of whiskey my gin
this is exactly what you wanted
for me to feel your body on mine
one last time
so i send myself postcards everyday
trying to rid myself of the pain
you've been bending me further
sooner or later ill burn
ill burn

Shadow Of A Man
03:41
|

|
in the meadow where i rest my head
i feel the kiss of the wind on my skin
without you I'm another blade of this grass
torn up by the hands of the curious kids
i spend the nights on a cement bed
cold and dirty, my new home
what was mine is now all yours
what is left is this old guitar
i walk these city streets alone
the shadow of a man
oh where have i gone
i did it to keep you out of this place
i did it to keep you safe
its better that i am here
living the lifestyle with certain fate
i walk these city streets alone
the shadow of a man
oh where have i gone
