Burn-In

So difficult to hold still.
Like some teenage nightmare,
I'm at school naked.
Feeling naked here alone with you.

That is how vulnerable I feel,
sitting here holding still.

Gone.
Now I know what I don't got,
How can I be here with you,
when you still are not?

That is how vulnerable I feel,
sitting here holding still.

Visit me sometime?
I kissed your face before when you were sleeping.
I stored the picture for my keeping.
Will you visit me sometime?

I looked directly at you,
the view burned in my mind.

I can't look directly at you,
the view burns my mind.

And when the night,
Brings you to my dreams,
How wonderful it'll seem.

And when the dawn,
Comes and takes you from my arms,
your memory burns inside of me.

Will You Remember Me?

I want to hold out my arms,
And have you help roll up my sleeves,
I want to hold out my arms,
And hold you til everyone believes,
You're the one for me.

I want to fold you in my arms,
And have a little break from worry,
I want to fold you in my arms,
And bask naked in your glory,
You know you're the one for me.

You thrill me when you offer your hand,
And help me keep my steady,
You thrill me when you offer your hand,
And always at the ready,
I know you're there for me.

All the little touches,
Sum greater than the parts,
All the little touches,
Some so touch my heart,
That you so know me.

Even the fairy tales fade,
When no one stays past stories end,
Fantasies & romantic words once said,
In the back of the mind soon forgotten.

Whore's Wagon

Took pleasure in your company,
But seems you preferred more than I,
Found you out there,
But I'll not be the other guy.

No chance to be around,
When not there out of sight,
You put me down,
Lies are your truth and that's not right.

Can't pretend it didn't matter,
Tried to be selfless for you,
You can't twist this to your purpose,
You haunt the dead you know this is true.

You won't let anyone love you,
And still we try and do,
Abandon yourself again,
Remember who first abandoned who.
