Still Alive
your cutting moments
put fear in the heart
that the cold had come to stay
that love was pain
and trust was false
it would always be that way
when anger poisoned
your sweetest touch
it felt like murder to new hope
but time has brought
me back to me
and taught the foolish how to cope
standing again
alone but alive
i'll walk from this regret
something whole left
in burning soft eyes
ready to pay love's debt
Lonely Songs
no hole where the heart is
still beating, still alive
still the girl with love to spare
forever feels so alone
and mistake upon mistake
haven't taught the slow
to learn
with time to pass
and freedom to waste
sit in the window
stare at the rain
will it to wash away the sins
hide the tears
that burn with frustration
and i'll sing alone
