Going Somewhere Cupid

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT4OFEB8uyE

And if I had someplace to be
Buying a bouquet of flowers
that you’d never see
What… they’d die in an hour
Go to Rock Hard Mr. Jeweler
You’ll love me like you do
For what would be cooler…
maybe, I could give it to you
If I had the courage to

be going somewhere
Instead, run boy run… but why
Because I’m shy, no… I’m scared
Petrified, when you’re such a wonderful surprise
Only you’re not in my red room
You’re not mine, tragic
With “him” I’ll assume
Never mine to ravish
Me you’d never choose

But wouldn’t it be nice…
Suppose I might never know
Because this place is not quite paradise
To find you I might have to go
Holding my breath, when I slip you a note
I don’t want to run that fast
Don’t want to scare you… I hope
Then love has already passed
When the stars go blue

will you stay with me, or be right here waiting there
In your lingerie… someday
Well I won’t be no runaway
My heart’s not going anywhere

When you’re too close to care

Love from Scratch

I can make love out of anything… almost; a smile, a voice, eye contact, a bit of softcore and hardcore porn, well intention words… take your pick. Love from Scratch, when you’re mad and yet you know the truth or when you’re in the shower with a Fleshlight

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCusEdHNmUI

And it always hurts somehow
But before I say ow
I’ll cover you; I’ll follow you into the dark
I want to tear you apart
Fix you but I don’t know how
So would you come with me now?

Should I ask again, plead and beg
You knock me off of my feet but on my own two legs
Well you have you have wings
Only I’m trying with everything
With every thought in my head
Every breath you take, if you shared my bed

Even then it might hurt a bit
Would a kiss… a bit of ravishment
One bad romance
Or even a lap dance
Tell me, because I want to know what love is
Be my heroine and crazy bit*h

Somebody’s heartbreak
The reason I’m still awake
Why I think three little words through
Just love me like you do
Yeah this might be a mistake
Still I’ll Say what I need to say, if you can take

A little bit of love from scratch
Love… have I had enough
Stay with me, because
Pain like this or that

No one wants to feel alone

Feather Ed

Did you leave your wings at home, sometimes even angels fall, or maybe did you forget how to fly… all the things I was thinking about saying when I saw my crush in an ankle cast today. Feather Ed… they once used feathers for a lot of things

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXrQgvkfLiM

And even God thought, you’re such a wonderful surprise
You’re what men were given eyes for
So God makes even more…
only you’re the one that I adore
But I dream of you instead

Should I open my eyes?
Live brave in a whole new world
Just be the boy asking a girl
to love me like you do… absurd
Yet like a chief I tread

Imagining letters from the sky
From a poor poet’s hands
Spoken from this man
Tell me my love, here I am
How the quills once bled

Of the Marquis de Sade and an angel’s demise,
debauchery, wanton depravity
Ravishment and the biggest tragedy
That there would never be you and me
High above me, wings spread

I don’t ask why
You keep so many feathers, keep your wings
There is something better, only I spring
my own wings together from so many things
Still this year’s love is over my head

Neo Falling

Just when I think I see the ground I realize I have a bungee cord around my ankles or I’m the extreme wallflower hanging off the side of the cliff… I think I’m safe. Neo Falling… she has me falling all over again and I don’t remember the ground.

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IJU73jbgrk

And while I’m falling down
Like Neo, I try to realize the truth
How was I high enough?

Did I fly, did I climb, did I dream somehow
That you would love me like you do
As if the stars were only there because…

I needed the gods to help me out
with all these things that I’ve done; who
else could I be thinking of

Tell me but then again, not now
Maybe when the stars go blue
When I’m not afraid of my crush

on you or hitting the ground
with three little words, less powerful… “I like you”
But I’m high enough, to fall in love

Retired Feelings

As the song goes… too young to fall in love but I’m too old to be this afraid, to be a virgin, or to be all alone in the world. Retired Feelings, surely the pieces of my heart must be dust by now and if not what am I, lonely man at 31 or a dirty perv

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJsQvN_CFlM

And not speaking of desire
Doesn’t that make me a liar?
A courageous man would inquire
Be creative or even inspired
Instead, I perspire
Until I’m much too tired
Yet you love me like you do, the night entire
As Cupid and the other gods conspire
Forever alone prior
To the day I expire
Can I be anymore shyer?
Dreaming of a girl on fire
Instead, I stand right beside her
My heart much too young to retire

Shine Love

Girls like shiny things and that’s no secret but I think I would shine in the dark like any one star but in the end the sun always rises and I have seen myself in the light *sigh*. Shine Love… I suppose I understand, love may be blind but before that

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXGavbPAfE0

Millions of stars so shiny
What’s one wish compared to the others?
Here comes the sun
Juliet was Romeo’s only one
Wish you would love me like you do, “hey lover”
Love me, love me
Ain’t love blinding?

“Sorry” she says nope

Frenching Heaven

I’ve heard it takes so many muscles to smile and so many to frown but how many does it take to kiss her, how many to even look at her and frankly it doesn’t matter how many it takes to love her. Frenching Heaven, to have such strength…

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=midtJiNbM9w

Kiss, kiss, kiss…

So I smile wide
Better not to invite a suicide

Does that make you frown?
If I could have you now…

But there are only so many muscles
Love me like you do… even God struggles

Because Bed

Because that’s where she is, in my head, in my heart in my dreams and because everywhere else I know I can’t have her. “Because Bed” is safe but even standing right next to her, well if the girl only knew what I was thinking… baggy pants anyone?

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dkqwmnYppc

Beginning with her eyes, her smile
beckoning my heart, but the rest of me,
bedsheets should hide but really
beautiful still; my eyes close for awhile

Bewitched by an angel…
Bewildered and such
Beware this thing they call love
Betrays the most beautiful stranger

Beasts such as I
bearing my heart accountable
“Be my heroine!” shouted loud and powerful
Becoming my *sigh*

Belief… in love me like you do
Be heard
Be hers
Because know, she has no reason to

Mattress Goals

It’s a small world after all… everything I need on one street, a girl or “the girl” could be pretty close, and my bed is awfully big enough then again… I’ve never had another person in it. “Mattress Goals”… I want to share but love on the edge…

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfBtqlFAz5Y

So they make the bed bigger
for your halo and wings instead
Do you fear you’ll fall off the edge?
and so it figures

the nights would grow longer
Yeah I’m that type of monster
Perhaps you are stronger
Close your eyes and wander

As the stars grow too numerous
Wishes, star-crossed
Let’s get lost
Humorous

While I come up with a million excuses
To not say somethin’ stupid, like I love you
But hoping you’ll love me like you do
Only a man uses

everything… but has one heart
It’s so powerful
Still it’s doubtful
I’ll find you… when we’re so far apart

The Distance to You

It’s why I’m still breathing… because she is so far away right now but am I running towards her or away from her; no clue. The Distance to You… seems to answer the question but I’m not sure I believe it and maybe I should just enjoy the air

See Me Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FR0nYI7v-Uo

It’s the distance between Heaven and Earth
And so I’m always falling
Because speaking up hurts

But I never learned to fly
So through the streets I’m calling
Now you ask me why

Like an angel on my shoulder
Or is that your leg or thigh
I need you closer

Close enough and I still don’t see
You are my lady, my love, my girl
All I need is the air that I breathe

Maybe not
If you would love me like you do
Ask me never to stop

Because aren’t beds big enough
Who needs Eden… with or without you?
When it’s only the two of us

closer until the very next line
can only be love
Someday, sometime

you’ll be in my heart
I’ll make room… a lot
Just… don’t break it apart

my atom bomb baby
The Space In Between Us
That’s the distance between love; maybe

it might be… just too much
