Breathe to the beat of sirens

The writings on the wall for you to see

Read these words now cos soon they’ll be gone

Watch as ink runs faster than you run from me

A thousand words run circles round you

How can this not move you?

My hands hold you tight as my lips say goodnight

Under this street light our bodies turn to silhouette

Even shadows become distant as we walk away

Footsteps become louder

My heart beats a little faster

You cross me out and leave another mark

In the spaces and places that you have made your own



What do we do when love is not enough?

Things that seem close were never close at all

The colours fade from your eyes faster than this final goodbye

Your words puncher my lungs as a gasp for air

Screaming from the fence line

You lode your gun one last time

Pulling the trigger as you open your mouth

Stand back and watch me bleed

Let this blood stained floor be a reminder

Of this: our magical little world



It’s almost over

As we to walk away

Hearts begin to beat louder

But only in the dark

Shapes that fit the spaces

If you think you’re invincible
I have you in the right place
If you have me smiling just because
Hold me tight and know that you are the reason
You so easily hand over your heart with a smile on your face
It’s in my hands that you find your perfect space

Ill never be far but when I am gone
Ill look down
As my hands glow brighter than the sun
They let me know that you’re the one
This is me with a smile on my face that the world could never replace

This might be lame and you probably think I am such a freak
But if I look at you and forget the words that I wana speak
Its cos your grace, elegance and beauty say what words can’t
I hid from the world only to find you
I burn brighter than ever before
With your hand in mine
We stand on the edge of this world
Falling back we begin to soar

Light the sky

Fireworks so bright they divide the sky
Touching the heavens pausing for a second
The crowd sigh’s as colours begin to dive,
These blues turn to reds and then to greens
I hope you can see what I mean when I say that
This world loves more like a murder scene
Taking what they want and pretending to care
Only to leave the taste of hate in the air

Its only hope that’s kept me waiting
I know this world hates me
So when the lights go out tonight we’ll be long gone
To the end of the world is as far as we can go
With feet dangling from the edge
I wana show you a world that only me and you will ever know

Fireworks that last forever
I would never have imagined
But there you were
Brighter than all the colours
Kiss me quick hold me tight
And watch the heavens
As our lives collide to light up the sky

The boy that once was

Standing on the sand
Ill hold you tight, kiss your head
And say goodnight
The moon is full
Ships in motion move across a great expanse with purpose
In a few hours that seemed like seconds
the sun burns warm against your face
Reflected in your eyes is my heart
You know you had me from the start
With smiles on our faces
We set our feet on a path that is only at the start

Standing on the sand where we first met
The moon is still full
Ships still seemingly move across a great expanse
The sun still rises above the horizon
Only lasting longer than before
The setting is the same except you…
In this silence
My insides scream out to a world
That’s taken you from me
Hoping that you will hear me scream
Ill stay a little longer
Looking back hoping to see you
You never came
With my finger ill write your name with a message in the sand
Coming back everyday hoping for your reply
I stand and sigh
It would feel better to die
I remember the days you made me feel so alive

It takes all I am to believe that ill be fine without you
I don’t know how I got here
And I don’t know how you got there
I just hope your fine
Looking across the sand
I see a boy that once was,
Once was needed
Once was yours
Once was everything
Once was loved

The skyline burns red

The skyline burns red
Soon it will be blue
There’s nothing that we can do
So we sit and watch
As the world paints a picture
Just for me and you
Your eyes are mirrored by this blue
I want you to know
I find a piece of me when I look at you


My world raisers crazy when you are away
And when u stay it turns to calm
It’s in your arms that I burn brightest
It’s not by chance that I have come to this place
As I sit next to you I know ill never forget your face
Through fields we’ll run
Across deserts we’ll dream


As we walk across the sand?
We leave footprints that few could follow
The water moves up
As the sun burns bright against our faces
The waiting is over
Tomorrow will be different cos
On this day I know that I love I know you
