Misled

You think you're so tough
Can you withstand the thorns of her walls
You think you're so gentle
Can you handle his ego as a delicacy

Are you misled or misleading

Caretaker

Somebody else will
Clean up the mess
I've made of you
Mop those tears

Do my job

Carried Away

Holding me by the wrist
But I'm floating baby
Back home
You can't hold on long enough

Didn't know how far from home I was

Bonfire

He was the flame
And the fire
Kept me warm and
Burned me alive

Led me to paradise and destruction

Gone

Never see me again
Won't allow it
When we cross paths
You'll wonder who's that

Without any clue who I've become

Still

With others
I could run, jump
Some others I could certainly skip
With you I could be perfectly still

There was nowhere else we wanted me to be

Lost With You

I live in a sea
Of cannots
You told me I could have
Everything I have now

And everything I lost with you

Hotty

I run hot
And you were a cold compress
On the back of my neck
You made the sweat okay

You made them stop laughing

Reduce

Is love anything more
Than two people feeling
Like they don't deserve each other
Then realizing they do

Then realizing that's enough

Au

I've taken off the lens
Seen you through
My own eyes
You are more than photogenic

Those touch ups demean you

5:17

It turns out
Your side of the bed
Is lonelier than mine
Cooler but colder

Where to sleep now

I Saw It

She lit every fire
Burned every bridge
Fanned every flame she could
And he watched her hurl her fire sticks

Into the pond before his feet

Value

Why did you
Walk right past me
I was still showing you more
The more I revealed the less

I'm just tired of being depreciated

Goodnight Kiss

Lips
Then forehead and nose
After tasting you I wanted you
To remember me and my scent

Knowing you might have to

Jetlag

I want someone
To think fondly of
At hours like this
Instead of shame and rebuke

I could go for some honour

Scaling

No more babe
For the first time
You're all gone
I am alone with no ropes

Climbing properly with my legs

Get Some Air

Weddings
I am happy for them
Really I am
It's a beautiful night

On both sides of the moon
