My Center Holds

The parts that float away,
Pulled by someone else's gravity
Their attraction not enough to draw me out.
My center holds

You draw me in, you draw me closer
You draw me in, you draw me closer
You draw me in, you draw me closer
To that sweet release

I don't wear my damage on my sleeve
My scars are hidden underneath
I don't need to be drawn out
My center holds

When I hear your voice
I'm off like a shot to the North
I'm wading out to sea,
You're on the shore,
Calling me back to the beach.

You draw me in, you draw me closer
You draw me in, you draw me closer
You draw me in, you draw me closer
Closer to that sweet release.

A Lot of Love to Give

I thought that I was broken
Left over from my demolition
I thought that I had shattered
To look in the mirror and see the fractures spreading
Waking up, from my morbid day dream
Shaking off the dust
I am not a broken heart
I'm just an open heart
I've got this gift to give
I've kept it safe, kept it close
I'm not a broken heart
I've got a lot of love to give.

Keepers of the dead

We're all keepers of the dead. We wear our memories, etched like lithographs, hanging in the hallways of our hearts. We're all walking reminders, of joy and love resounding. Echoing, in the hallways of our hearts. Memories of forgotten blessings, unrecognized miracles, come flooding back with grief. We your fellow keepers, remember, we take the words out of your mouth and speak them as our own. We're all keepers of the dead, with the pain of loss still spreading, you are not alone.

Waving my dick (at the wedding)

I can't let go of the possibility,
that I let my reflection, make the decisions
If I pick up this mask, and put it back on
I'll never take it of again

I'm not over my little bitty broken heart
I'm left standing,
I'm waving my dick,
waving my dick at the wedding

I can't tell if time is moving wicked fast
Or If I'm just standing really still
If I move a muscle, If I draw a breath
Will they just stop and stare?

I'm not over my little bitty broken heart
I'm left standing
and I'm waving my dick,
I'm waving my dick at the wedding.
