No Sleep

I just need some sleep, I'm counting all the Crows
They're sitting on my windowsill, pecking cracks into my window
And I just need some relief, from the storm inside my own head
A strong reliance on pills, is keeping me from falling down
When the rain comes again, I'll feel the water wash over my skin
Wash away and start anew, ready for the following sun
And when the headaches finally clear, when my eyesight finally sharpens
I'll raise my glass to the Crows and wonder where you've all gone

Life is so achingly dull
When you spend it alone
I begin to lose myself, my accent
My body becomes a walking television
My eyes watching the lives of others
I can drench my life in arts and food
Walks and long thoughts
But that basic human interaction
Between two people
That sparkle and jolt
Can never be replaced
Cooped up in my apartment
So trapped by my own thoughts
Yet I'm free to go out and share them
So many people minutes away
But I'd never dare say a word
I recall everything that night
From the sweat on your body, to the pictures on the wall
Do you remember it well?
Do you lay in bed at night and try to put together a picture?
The third drawer by the bed
And the television set way too low
"Better be quiet" you whispered in my ear
A dirty little secret that was only meant for us
And some nights I walk around
Where I play back these scenarios
A couple times a month

Chelsea, I can still see his face
I remember what he was wearing and the ceramic tiles
You saw me as I entered the hallway
Cos you scurried up the stairs like a pack of Rats
The coats, in the hallway, are all stacking high
But in the bathroom its you I find
The windows are all steaming up
I'm standing there at sixteen staring straight at you
How, can someone, have such a hold on me for all these years?

I heard you breathing through the phone
I said goodbye from a thousand miles
Could you even hear me?
Or was the machine just pumping air?
I was too late and I wasn't there
I missed your last moments of life
I called you a few days before
You were so full of life
Spouts of pain and moments of tears
I haven't stopped crying all day
Laura cries with me and holds me tight
Tells me to go home if I need
"Peanuts in a jar atop the fridge"
"Don't sit near the window cos there's a draft"
What would be the point in coming home tonight?
When you're already gone
You're all I need
But you're already gone
And you're all I need
But you're already gone

A Song For You

Saw you standing there in your black dress
All alone on the back porch
Hair shining bright in the moonlight
Cigarette in your right hand
And all the reasons that I gave you
Slowly fell into the night
When you were standing under the stars
Into the darkest depths of the sky
Saw you sitting down by the ocean
Hair entwined in the flowers
When you asked me for a hand
To break you free from the wild
The twilight bounced upon the waves
And made your eyes all light up
It was from that moment
You're a speck of colour in the grey
