Deaf

by Aidyn   Nov 5, 2005


Who knows the point?
I beg for mercy
I need a way
I leave and let be.

What is the rush?
I need your temperance
Show me love.
Forgive my preference

I started a fire today
Burning through my head
I asked for another day
Burning what you said

Silence finds
Another answer
And still she walks
With other romances

I can't escape
Don't need it clearer
It's still the same
Your hand's no nearer.

I started a fire today
Burning through my head
I asked for another way
Burning what you said

I cannot say
I wasn't walking
Through the door
You're never talking

And still the birds
Are flying low, now
There is no change
I change it somehow.

I started a fire today
Burning through my head
I didn't hear you say
Nothing's born or dead

I didn't hear you say

I burned your words today

    I think this is one of my favourites!

    you could turn it into a song - if you take out a few of the repeating stanzas (so the chorus doesn't get tiring)....but these are DYNAMITE lyrics, man...it's times like these that i wish i still practiced guitar so i could create a melody for it

    ahh well, YOU'RE the music student *poke, poke* hehe...just thought i'd mention that after the lil' Lit kid comment i got...*raspberry*
