Ariadne's Thread

 





Spirit



feeling my hunger falling deeper inside of me

feeling my anger gnawing away at me endlessly

feeling my naivety consume an eternity

and I never believe that it's true

I only dream of being closer to you

never quite said what I wanted to say to you

never quite believed the words that I spoke to you

never quite imagined the things that I did to you

never knowing what I wanted to do

only dreamed of being closer to you

feeling the noises run away hauntingly

feeling the monster roam freely outside of me

feeling the tension fall away hungrily

and I never know what to say

always lived as if I would see you again

never quite loved the worlds I wanted to

never quite lived the dreams I held close to you

never quite made anything believable

and there is nothing left that I can do

only pretend that I am close to you

feeling the words stare at me patiently

feeling my heart fly away lonely

feeling my skin bring out the agony

and I never believed it was true

never tried what I wanted to do



walking away with my heart in my hand again

tripping across memories of the ghost again

breaking away with tears in my eyes again

never believing what I knew to be true

only wanted to be closer to you



only wanted to be closer to you
