But that's because I'm lazy.
So yesterday was interesting. Too bad I'm not going to tell you about it.
I do like waking up to messages in my inbox that cheer me up though.
But on to the reason I'm really using this thing: my songs
So here's one for your reading pleasure (or disdain.... whatever.)
It's about this girl who never could catch what I was saying when I tried to be cryptic with lyrics. And she's not my girl anymore, so I figured I'd write a little something. Granted, this was a while ago, I just thought I'd throw this one up there. It's called "The Runway Lights Are The Deepest Blue..."
I know I've used my words on you in the past
Plenty of them went by so fast
Plenty of them went so far overhead
But that's ok baby, you didn't catch what I said...
You can't hold onto my words
You won't know what they're worth...anyway
I tried to keep our teenage tragedy (too little, too late)
No longer bound by hooks or cherished dreams (too little, too late)
This guitar sings with your hipbones
and my mouth st st st st stutters with your eyelids
at least that's what they used to do
Until you came and disrupted my heartbeats
In lieu of what I thought I had right
You can't hold onto my words
You won't know what they're worth... anymore
I tried to hold our teenage tragedy (too little, too late)
No longer bound by hooks or... (too little)
no longer bound by hooks or... (too late)
cherished dreams are all we had
cherished dreams is all we were
I won't hang myself on them anymore
I'm now ending what we started
Deep breath, broken hearted
Though you shouldn't be
Though I shouldn't be
Goodbye to our teenage tragedy
We gazed up at the heavens and stared (too little too late)
and they got angry and overcast with tears (And I'm sorry I was late)
deep clouds broke our concentration (too little, too late)
and deep words messed up the conversation (tried harder before I knew)
And your eyes stopped stole my heart’s station (too little, too late)
So here’s where we are, bidding farewell tonight (too much on your plate)
A love we thought we had tied down in our sight (too little, too late)
Goodbye to our teenage tragedy (too much, too soon)
In lieu of what I thought I had right
