Kill Me No More

I swallowed all of you
Where am I? Not here
Drifted far away from all things clear
and frozen in the fall
Looking up at you
Trying to save me with your words but that... won't do.

Before I opened all the doors and let you in
All that I wanted from this life was to begin
Now it's my lie that won't believe me
Love is what will kill me .. no more.

Forever as you said, ends where we are now
You who made the Sun go out somehow
Of trust impurely made by the slightest tear
All the seams have come undone and you...not there

Before I opened all the doors and let you in
All that I wanted from this life was to begin
Now it's my lie that won't believe me
Love is what will kill me .. no more.

What's my name

My name is David
I'm carrying the wheel
Thanks for all you've shown me
But this is how I feel
Come sit next to me
Pour yourself some tea
Just like grandma made
When we couldn't find sleep
Things were better then
Once but never again
We've all left the den
Let me tell you 'bout it

The choo-choo train left right on time
A ticket costs only your mind
The driver said, 'Hey man, we go all the way'
Of course we were willing to pay

My name is David
I gotta box full of your toys
They're fresh out of batteries
But they're still makin' noise (makin' noise)
Tell me what to do
Now the tank is dry
Now this wheel is flat
And you know what else?
Guess what I received In the mail today
Words of deep concern
From my little brother
The building's not going as he planned
The foreman has injured his hand
The dozer will not clear a path
The driver swears he learned his math
The workers are going home Yeah!
The workers are going home Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

My name is David

It's Now Can't

Under the water,
Its cold and its grey.
My torrid autumn,
Another season decays.
Open up the Hollow,
And my walls come down.
I tell you it’s a problem,
Just when no one’s around.
But then,
I know what’s wrong,
You complicated everything.
I know you’re gone, gone, gone,
This is where I will draw a line.
I will draw my line.
Look at all of these peoples, Tragic little people,
They smile and then they don’t know what for.
But then,
I know what’s wrong,
You complicated everything.
I know you’re gone, gone, gone,
This is where I will blur my line.
I will blur my line.
Our houses are haunted, Dark and deserted,
They’re made of my secrets and shame.
Baby I want it I know I’m not worth it,
I can’t even tell you my name.
Again,
I know what’s wrong,
You complicated everything.
I know you’re wrong,
You took it all away from me.
I know you’re gone, gone, gone,
This is where I will cross my line.
I am crossing my line.

Look Again

You have taken the heart of me
And left just a part of me
And look, look, look what you've done
Well, you took all the best of me
So come get the rest of me
And look back, finish what you've begun
Be done

There is someone you ought to meet
It's me, Mister Incomplete
Look at what I've become
For it's due to the lack of you
That I'm now only half of two
Look, I said back, finish what you've begun
Be done

Come and sit by my side
Where there's nothing to hide
And we'll try to decide
What you've needed
But from where I stand today
I can't think of a way
Or the words that I might say
That could change your mind and make you stay
Oh no, not for all the times I've pleaded

Look what you've done
You have taken the best of me
So come get the rest of me
Look back, finish what you've begun
Oh, be done

The End

Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world,
'Cause you don't love me any more?

Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when I lost your love.

I wake up in the morning and I wonder,
Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,
How life goes on the way it does.

Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye

Love Me

Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
My guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio

Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
I love you I really do
Loneliness is a such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again

What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And listen to my sad guitar

It Is

Don't you know it's true
I belong to you
Don't you know it's just how it is

Dont you know it's so
I won't let it go
Don't you know it's just the way it is

Long Time

Love will abide, take things in stride
Sounds like good advice but there's no one at my side
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me but I don't know what it means.
Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time
Caught in my fears Blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near
And I never drew one response from you
All the while you fell all over guys you never knew
Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long long time
Wait for the day You'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was
Cause I've done everything I know to try and change your mind
and I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time
Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time.
