déjà écrit: top of the world

we can fill in all the gaping holes
let loose the grip that holds us close
turn away from all bad things
conjure up what we want to see

i am free and all alone
to find my way to this now known
as everything i've wanted from the start
my vision is set as clear as can be

a majestic sight for all to see!
with all my friends and friends to be
past lovers along with future lies
settling into my watery eyes

this may melt my skin and break my bones
a small consequence of my spontaneity
and as i struggle to keep my head afloat
my body will go limp.. down i will go

down to the depths of my deepest desires
you naked and bare and arms so wide open
all my questions answered in a form of a book
a stairway to heaven, yes! my own little heaven

no ticks and tocks for i move the hands of time
the pool of blood is just a reminder of the past
this aching body tells of a work well done
stretches of silence to enjoy the sound of your breath

the leaves they turn red when i happen to cry
the leaves they fall when i finally die
trees so vast and plenty so i can blend in
just one tiny axe so all my chances agree

i am nobody even though you are somebody
somebody to love with everything to hate
you are a wall i realize i can never climb
i bask in the shade you unwillingly cast

through times like these i hope you jump right in
although the empty look in your eyes keeps me away
it can only get better, says the smile on your face
the end is near, so sprint straight on ahead
