2005-09-19 23:39:15 ET So yeah... I haven't posted in a while. I'm doing fine. A little overwhelmed with work and school and more work and more school... but the writing has been helping. This next one is quite crazy but I like it. "The Dance" The clock tolls twelve I’m up to my old ways again Line them up for me to look upon Yeah this is the beginning of the end Oh I’ll bounce from one to another come on I’ve grown accustomed to this custom One up one down and I’m dead in the heart and the head By the mourning the morning newspapers will read of my romantics I’m the emotionally leeching lover’s feeding masochistic side of the bed Welcome to the party This partly is yours to blame for it all Drink it fast or you won’t last Like a storyteller’s book on love A submitted narcissistic for your approval After all... Yeah I’ve heard it before Ringing in my head from my hair on down You don’t have to sing softly darling No one is here to stop you for now Raise your voice raise your glass This is the last thing I’ll ever ask of you before you leave This is the morning after mindless self-indulgence Just another notch in my belt and more suspense And a head full of self-esteem Oh it's the beginning of the “this and that” tit for tat I’m up and out the door from this neighborhood murder scene Accomplice to a crime you can’t think to fathom Yeah you can’t play stupid with me Sing me that song one more time again and again Yeah that’s exactly what I thought this would be A hand to your neck and the other somewhere beneath And someone already has your tongue in cheek As if by probability You could have tripped on all the common feet and common struggle We are the common children of the fatherless brides Of chance circumstance and double trouble Sliding prescripted smiles under our skin straight to the bone She’s on the ground again Yeah I’ll be the one to take her home Sound all the sirens of the gravest alert After all the fun and the games Someone has to get hurt Blink blink the clock is down again Flashing 8's and I've sucked down another one I can already that this is the feel the beginnning of the end |
