Lie

"We're not all imposters walking around in your world..."

'Til . . .

If I can't sleep in the winter, I'll write 'til daylight peaks through.
If I can't drink enough to forget you, I'll look at pictures of me without you. 
If I can't dance enough to remember you, I'll add extra leaps 'til my turns lay me on the floor.
If I can't drive far enough to get away, I'll stay in our special place 'til you have a diffent face.
If I can't scream loud enough to stop you, I'll whisper 'til you begin again.
If I can't touch you so that you know I'm near, I'll stand in the background 'til I'm the only one you see.

If I can't find your heart, then I'll walk down the hallway 'til I see your ghost...

She Has

The Other Woman has feelings...
She has broken dreams...
She has foolish thoughts...
She has weak ambitions...
She has unresolved issues...
She has dark places...
She has unrecognizable faces...
And she has a bit of hope that will only last as long as her next breath.
 
So, if you please, I'd like it if you wouldn't refer to me as the other woman...

To Hold

You are mine, and you are lovely.
You are my darkest wine.
So, if you end up leaving, I'll be fine.

I promise you, I'll be fine. 

Change of Season

"I'm a little chilly but nothing uncomfortable."

Are you not...

Are you not supposed to lose complete control?
Are you not supposed to be angry?
Are you not supposed to lose it all?

Are you not supposed to try to keep everything in your hands even though you know it's all being taken away from you?

Over

"Today was the first day that I didn't think of you..."
