No Sense (07-16-09)

where is the moment where it all makes sense
I had a pleasant thought worth sharing
But i buried it in the backyard with the dead strawberries
My dog's cold nose is pressed up against me
I think he believes in heaven just like me
I have so much more than this to offer

Dark drops of rain are falling on my heart
filled with little shipwrecked debris of hope
But I can't talk about it now
If I moved my place in time
Would it all begin to make sense

I think the shadow of a kiss is just around the corner
I summon love in the darkest of my hour
But like a cemetary of lost, no answer ever comes
Covered in songs
I retreat and stay away from the cold stars of despair
As nothing begins to make sense

The window to my heart must be closed to all visitors
Thats what my last lover whispered to me before I left her so
I think spring forgot to bloom inside this cranky heart of mine
For now all I see is a chalk board full of distant memories

Flames alongside smoke are moving down the hallway
With my wet body wedged between the past and future
and the bitter taste of reality still hanging on my lips
Little by little has this world stopped loving me
Does flower after flower die in my name as the days go by

Love feeds on love
Instead of flowers for the girl
like poetry dipped in blood
Sometimes the boy can't get it right
Even though the depth of the girl's eyes are worth keeping

Sometimes it doesn't make sense to feel this way
In the land of dreams
mixed with fresh red roses
the night may be full of stars
But I still long for the love I can't find

Why is my heart always left searching for more
It makes no sense
It makes no sense at all
