Falling Slowly

I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
Games that never amount to more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice
You'll make it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing it loud

Sedated

Just a little rush, babe
To feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me
Just a little hush, babe
Our veins are busy but my heart's in atrophy
Any way to distract and sedate
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb
Free and young and we can feel none of it
Something isn't right, babe
I keep catching little words but the meaning's thin
I'm somewhere outside my life, babe
I keep scratching but somehow I can't get in
So we're slaves to any semblance of touch
Lord we should quit but we love it too much
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb
Free and young and we can feel none of it
Darling, don't you stand there watching won't you come and save me from it
Darling, don't you join in you're supposed to drag me away from it
Any way to distract and sedate, adding shadows to the walls of the cave

I saw you from the bottom of the stairs, 'fore you know I was coming
And though nervous and scared, I lingered on
I heard most things break by the ends of these types of nights
But I'll force upon
Every word I've brushed up on
Since knowing we won't speak like this again
You got a certain who-knows-what about you
And I got a small amount of time
To figure out what it is exactly and to whom does it apply
But I know for a fact that these are broken nights
Covered in bottles, the stench of loss of life
And I know that it's quite heartbreaking we won't speak like this again

I Love How You Love Me

I love how your eyes close whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me heavenly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me
I love how your heart beats whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me without being told to
I love the way your touch is always tenderly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me
I love how your eyes close each time that you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me
I love the way your kiss is always heavenly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me
