Midnight Phonecalls

tell me what u think about it..

night falls
silent like dark silk
wrap me in those loving folds
we waitonce we were innocent
now our eyes are cold

where did we go?
when did we lose the battle for time?
what do i know?
are these words really mine?
where did we go?

day breaks
falling like a comet fast
duck and cover, as we run
i feel faintwe've got to make haste
to make the moment last

where did we go?
when did we lose the battle for time?
what do i know?
are these words really mine?
where did we go?

time loses meaning,
when i think of the feeling you bring
my head is reeling, now i'm just waiting to sing
i'll tell you everything...

where did we go?
when did we lose the battle for time?
what do i know?are these words really mine?
where did we go?

summer

i love summer.
she loves summer.
he loves summer.

we love summer.

i love waiting.
she loves watching.
he loves straining.

we love summer.

i love stirring.
she loves sifting.
he loves tasting.

we love summer.

i love listening.
she loves talking.
he loves to ignore.

we love summer.

don't we?

truly worried sick

i can't bear to know this
and not do anything.

i just want to help, but
i have this feeling that i'll be making it worse.

i want them to be safe.
i just want them to be safe.

everyone keeps telling me that the only way to protect them is
to stay away.
to run.

but how can i do that?
how can i abandon them like little children
waiting forever on the steps of some school.
through rain and snow, sun and sleet.

until they grow from rosy-cheeked little kids
to bitter teenagers, floowed by a haze of rage
that follows them, clouding their every move.

how can i doom them to that fate?

how can i let them take the road i was forced to take?

how can i just leave?
