For too long I longed for a blade
To separate me from my substance
I was hunted haunted wanted by the waves
Just beyond the fingertips of so called justice
But just before the crypt
Towards the last page of the script
Full of breakups and make downs
We found our own way around it
The only thing I want to be
Is someone I would wanna be
And the only one I would wanna be
Is someone you would wanna be with
No I write rhymes each and every day
And yet sometimes it's difficult
To find new words to say
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
You and I
A ship on a stream of glass
Cutting away a poisoned past
Blades of grass
Cut with a blade of brass
Smash
The glass graveyard with one wave
Hard
You are my face card my ace
We walk the streets at night
We are what eagles dare
We walk the streets at night
We are what eagles dare
No I write rhymes each and every day
And yet sometimes it's difficult
To find new words to say
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
And I just want to
To be alive
