Eight

i don't know how i should put it to you
so i'll keep my tongue shut and glued
i’ll admit that i don't hold a lot of hope
but that's the only way i cope
i have wasted all these years trying to please
everyone else but me
I have tried to change myself a thousand times
who i am’s not worth a dime
i would hole myself up for all eternity
but that's not realistic, see
i would never harm another living being
i love the world to an extreme
i was thirteen when i first felt this way
i only knew cause he was eight
i would gladly point the gun right to my head
cause i know you would want me dead

Thirteen/He Said

One summer scene
We were two boys in a dream
He was shy of just thirteen
When he laid his eyes on me
Tousled hair and dying limbs
I scoop him in my arms again
He turns to face me with a grin
"You're it!" He beams "I win! I win!"
He wins he wins he wins this time
His smile goes wide and so does mine
We laugh and play and it's a sign
That happiness can be divine
Is it wrong
Is it right
Will we go to Hell tonight
Do we seem out of place in this haunted holy night
If we do...I'm sorry, little guy
Ooo, I love you
Ain’t that the greatest sin
Ooo, I miss you
But you won’t let me in
Ooo, I’d love to
Play like a child again
Ooo, I love you
But you don’t want me to
Ooo, I love you
Ain’t that the greatest sin
Ooo, I miss you
But you won’t let me in
Ooo, I’d love to
Play like a child again
Ooo, I love you
But you don’t want me to
That what be goin on
That what be goin on
That what be goin on
That what be on my mind
That what be goin on
That what be goin on
That what be goin on
That what be occupy my time
And He Said
And He Said
And He Said
And He Said
I will reward (He rewards)
Every sin (sinful thought)
In the form (in the form)
Of eternal strife
I will reward (He rewards)
Every sin (sinful thought)
In the form (in the form)
Of eternal life
Oh I love you
I still do
I love you
I still love you
I love you
I still do
I love you
I still love you
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love you-ou
I still love
Julian, I don't hold it against you

Dove
02:56
|

When I was young and wild and free
He used to say he really loved me
And I believed it to be
True
He went to pick me up from school
His smile went wide and mine did too
And I jumped up into his arms
He held me fast and swung me round
He played with me all through the day
"The last one is a rotten egg!"
We ran until we hit the door
Then laughed and laughed upon the floor
When I was younger, I was loved
He tucked me in, "my little dove"
He read to me about a tree
And kissed me as I fell asleep
Back then, I was his raison d'être
He told me not to e'er forget
"I love you so, my little dove
If anything, it's this I know."
And he held me close, he held me close
When I was young, I had a dream
That this was not a fantasy
But then I woke
My spirit broke
And I was all alone again

Centuries

How delicate
The skin that I
trace along your face as I
Hold your head in my hands and
cry
Why
Do you do this thing to me
Make it so that my eyes can't see
And my mind is blind
And my heart unwinds
I taste
The chocolate of your kiss
That bliss
that fills the hole inside of me
Oh can't you see
It's not just me
It's you
it's who
We're meant to be
And centuries
Go by and I fly
To the skies of blue
Where I first saw you
Oh, it makes me new

I have never loved you
02:25
|
|||
The words you never longed to hear
The truth upon my tongue, so clear
I have never loved you
As much as I have wanted to
It's trying, my dear
When I don't like what's in here
Skies of blue, my inspiration
Went and died, oh my elation
When you walked across the threshold
Did you know my words were bold?
I have never loved you
Even though I’ve wanted to
Every day I struggle
To give you all the love you seek
I have never loved you
The way that I have wanted to
I wish I could love you
But it’s not what I’m capable of
Skies of blue, a ruin of integrity
What’s left of me
When you walked across that bridge
You sank it with your dignity
I have never loved you
The way that I have wanted to
Every day I struggle
To give you all the love you seek
I have never loved you
The way that I have wanted to
I wish I could love you
But it's not what I'm capable of
I wish I could love you
And comfort you with all your fears
I wish I could love you
If only I knew you could too
…
My name is Julian
And I believe the stars align
And I've come back to find
My place inside the universe
