"Judge Not" or The Alcoholic

What a joke
Look, over there,
That drunk!
God, what a mess
Don't make eye contact!
Jeez, he really is creeping me out
Aw no! crap man
He's gonna fall
Ha, what a pathetic loser
Just another bottle-hitting boozer

...

I saw him trembling
About to fall
I saw him quiver
He just lost it all
When he hit the ground
He really hit it
He didn't even try and catch
Himself
I can't suppose
I really blame him
His hands were clasped to his ears
In a vain a attempt at
Drowning out his demons

Leave all Your Love and Your Longing Behind

You don't know how much I long for you
You don't know how much I care
Because I'm so cold
And dispassionate

But just beneath my surface
Of fear and shame
Is your lovers voice
Calling your name

So I'm sorry I'm so loud
And misleading and rude
I'm sorry I keep running
Away from you

I finally found a way to stop
But its not enough
I can't go back any further
Come find me

I'm not running.

Never Let Me Go II

When the red dawn said hello
You were in my arms
Your skin was pink
And your lips would part
And I said then in the scarlet glow
"Never, never, never let me go."
