Plans

A shadow falls by your eyes
and I can't see to make my next move so
I lie beside you and we sleep for hours and hours
The hardest part of my day has been
leaving your side

We were never sure of anything
except that tomorrow held
the sweetest mysteries

Hide under the sheets
for what seems like days
We won't miss the calls coming in
we'll order-in and think it's sweet to be invisible

One thing I know is
we'll never grow tired of being alone together

We were never sure of anything
except that tomorrow held
the sweetest mysteries

so throw away your plans, stay with me
tell me that today is ours
throw away your plans, stay with me
tell me that the day is ours
just throw away your plans.

disconnect/protect

Blade, blatant calamity
nondescript hypocrisy
sink into your capacity
with fine lines drawn in gravity
you have walls
you have knives
that you use to cut through
all of your buried abuse

you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand

pain, drink down the remedy
spilled on your dress
bound for catastrophe
what a mess, what a mess
run, like you have never run
feel your legs leap in motion towards the escape
you can't escape
when you're clinging to the cause of these mistakes

you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand
