Go Fish

Tonight we go around in circles, at three in the morning with the sounds of the city in the background and the hope of something better held between tired fists.

What Once Was

If we were to dance,

Music

I took what I wanted. That’s for certain. It was like a flash of lighting you know? I didn’t know what it was until my eyes were burning and I had to think about it.

Hold On To A Moment

I Am Red

There is a bucket of paint

Empty promises and open bottle litter the floor

Another You

I’m going to find another you, one day on the subway.

DJ Never Let Me Go

So I asked her if she thought the sun rose and set with us, if we could love like it was the end of the word. You know, like there was no tomorrow?

Leaving

It was not a long conversation, for minds had already been made up. There was a boat leaving, and he wanted her to come with him.

Since Then

If I Ruled The World

They asked me what I would do if I ruled the world,

Ask Someone If They Are A Dreamer

Ask someone if they are a dreamer, and in all likelihood they will say yes.
