« The Pursuit of... | Main | Eternity of Longing »

And about you...

These are the things I do
These are my vices
My devices for coping
With the life that I've
Flung myself down
They hurt me and
Tear me apart
But they're what I need
To live and to breathe
And find that comfort
That makes me forget
About life and love
And about you

I don't want them anymore
Not any more than
I want you this night
But they're here and
You are have gone away
Leaving me here to do
With what I have
These evil devices
That I have to cling to
And find that comfort
That makes me forget
About life and love
And about you

I'm wicked and I'm evil
Delving into machinations
My mind never could
Have imagined own its own
But without you here
I'm searching for things
That I can never find
Not all by myself
So I'm partaking in this
To find that comfort
That makes me forget
About life and love
And about you

I can't let these things go
Not after all of this
I let you slip away
From me and my life
So I feel thusly empty
A deep pit of longing
Without knowing what
I'm just looking around
For that which allows me
To find that comfort
That makes me forget
About life and love
And about you.
