stop.

I never would've thought,

It'd turn out this way,

oh no, not this way.

-stealing glances from across the crowd-

remembering how it felt to be in your arms

yearning for a moment,

when our hands are together again,

can't the world just stop?

and let us take a breath

I could fall away

-disappear-

and for not one moment

would you notice.

I pushed you,

and we both came crashing down

but, only you were beatuiful as you fell.

Honestly We are not a unit.

Oh the honesty we sever
when we say that we we're always together
what a secret you have become
I won't let the sun shine on your face
not in my room
not on you in my room.
the sun doesn't shine on your face there.
any place but your face.
I'll keep you dark and hidden
until the dusk you will be dark and forbidden
tucked deep inside of my shelf
there you will stay
sheild the force of truth from me
what a tainted exsistance you keep
forcing such a scared and past distance
will the world ever see your pretty face
oh the honesty we sever when
we say that we we're always together.

So far away...

How did I become so far away from you?

When did I end up not knowing you?

How did this happen?

Was It fast

Was It slow

Like the race cars speeding

or the winter months

Was the world changin?

When did I go so far away?

You know my feelings

I know your there

You've seen me stumble

You've heard me cry

You'll take me back I know you will

How can I come back to you?

How did I become so far away from you?

House.

stuck inside this house,

house of glass, I'm always on the inside,

you used to be here with me,

but you left, breaking a wall or two while leaving,

It didn't matter the weather, raining, storming, cold, no weather at all,

or bright sunshine,

you sat there with me,

what happened?

why did you break the walls,

and leave me in my house alone?

I never let anyone else in my house,

the closest people only ever touched the glass,

not me, the glass, you, you sat right next to me,

in my house,

no one else ever broke through my glass,

no one else ever came in,

if I let you in,

would you break my glass again?

If I let anyone in,

will they break my glass?

I remember when I first got my house

so proud of my unbreakable house,

Then- It left me all alone,

alone in my house,

alone but safe.

safe in my lonely house,

but then I couldn't see through the glass clearly,

not until you came, cleaned the walls,and came inside.

you came inside my glass house,

you broke in from the outside,

broke into me,

and then you broke everything that was me,

If I let you back in,

would you break my house?
