Summer Nights

My existence is bleak,
My smile is weak.
My legs ache and groan as I walk the painful miles back home,
The darkness whispering in my eyes.
My cheek burns as I remembered your beautiful lies.
Once upon a time I believed in a fairy tale,
But damn that was one epic fail.
I push forward, my heart breaking,
A perfect smile I'm faking.
Where do I belong,
I always do something wrong.
How can you say you believe in me?
Can't you see what I see?
A monster, an abomination,
The darkness and I have a strong relation.
I bet we'll never know the difference between dark and light,
If you give love a chance, you just might.
I can't go on, I can't keep going,
My emotions are showing.
The darkness wraps it's hand around my throat,
Surrounding me like a castle's moat.
Instead of protecting me,
It's keeping me from being free.
Laugh and sing and cry,
I'll accept my fate and slowly die.
One pill after another pill,
The alcohol on the window sill.
I have a secret you need to know,
I have to tell you before I go.
I always loved you,
I wanted to save you from all your going through.
I wait for you in dream land,
In dream land together we stand.
Stars shine in your eyes for me like they used to,
Baby I love you.
Let me take away the pain,
If you don't love me I understand, but I'll no longer be sane.
Seasons change as I dream of summer nights,
The stars in the sky like a million little lights.
Your blue eyes looking in mine,
Lost in you, for once everything is perfectly fine.
I would catch the moon for you,
Just tell me what to do.
If you say goodbye then you must know,
I will no longer have a place in this world, so I'll let go.
My heart beats for you,
I'm so addicted, I don't know what to do.
Darling, I need you,
I don't want anyone new.
So please take my hand,
Together we can stand.
When things get bad,
Before I go completely mad.
Kiss my lips and dance with me in the street,
You'll never find a love so sweet.
Listen to my heart, with your head on my chest,
You'll see I love you the best.
I promise I'll be brave,
Your heart is still ready for me to save.
It's okay beautiful girl, I'm afraid to fall too,
But all I know is I can't live without you.
I'll catch you before you hit the ground,
I'll kiss you, I don't care who is around.
I have loved you since the day I met you,
I love you, I really do.
Is that a crime?
So baby..let's stop wasting time.
Will you be mine?
