I gave birth to a lie

And it gave birth to many more

I watched it multiply

Till I could stop it no more

It was all fine

Until truth decided to come out

And draw a thin line

Between trust and doubt

The lies were spread

The truth washed them away

Soon, they were all dead

But the scars came to stay

Now, the lies are gone

The truth never picked a side

Scars are reborn

The mother has died

Just because I’m laughing, doesn’t mean I’m free

I know I have hurt you and you know you’ve hurt me

But I’m your destination and you’re my destiny

If I were to leave now, will you come with me

Away from this distraction. ‘Twas just you and me

O’ Stacy, ’twas just you and me

…

The love still remains here. I see it in your eyes

Can we buy a magic potion to rid our lives of lies?

Farewell to all the monsters. Bid them our last goodbyes

When I am sitting with you, all my troubles fly

Away to another land. ‘Tis just you and me

O’ Stacy, ’tis just you and me

…

This home has nothing for me and it will never do

I’ll be packing my bags and I hope to get through

This place has nothing for me. Don’t you feel it too?

I know where I’m going in these worn-out shoes

Away from everyone here, where there’s just me and you

O’ Stacy, just me and you

I wake up so lonely

In the middle of the night

I stare out of the window

And watch the night show

But there is nothing here to see

The silence of the night fills me

Now it does not matter

I feel so much better

My soul doesn’t feel so empty

The silence of the night fills me

I stare at a lonely star

It helps me heal my scar

There is no voice in me

The silence of the night fills me

Don’t ask me questions which I cannot answer

I will fill you up with lies

And to make you believe my words

I will even look into your eyes

So don’t ask me if I love you

I won’t tell you if I do

And I’d say ‘yes’ when I don’t

And you might believe me to be true

Let Mercury be marbled

Let Venus be virtued

Let Earth be your emerald

And brighten all that is you

Let Mars be your moon

Let Jupiter be your jewel

Let Saturn come a little soon

Or it would be too cruel

Let Uranus be our unity

Let Neptune bring something new

You can, then, have all of me

And I will have all of you

I will write a love song

Though I don’t believe in love anymore

I will sing a love song

Just like I used to before

…

I believed love was sufficient

Can surpass any wall

Enough to live and die for

And that would be all

…

Thought love was the greatest feeling

Absolutely pure and divine

And it would come to me eventually

So I could call it mine

…

But I was terribly mistaken

Proved bitterly wrong

Must stop watching movies

Must stop listening to songs

…

For love doesn’t exist

As she rightly pointed out

Life is about convenience

There isn’t any doubt

…

But there is nothing here

That you need to learn

You just keep believing

Love isn’t meant for everyone

…

So I will write a love song

Though I don’t believe in love anymore

I will sing a love song

Just like I used to before

Can I now go back in time?

Change the way these words do rhyme

And then everything will be just fine

I ain’t gonna cry over you

I’ve got better things to do

…

There is so much I’d like to say

But I throw those thoughts away

Save these tears for a better day

I ain’t gonna cry over you

I’ve got better things to do

…

Now I feel so strong and free

And I know who I wanna be

Time has healed your memory

I ain’t gonna cry over you

I’ve got better things to do

…

There is one thing you should know

I won’t be there where you will go

I won’t be there now anymore

I’ve got better things to do

I ain’t gonna cry over you

I am unreal and I don’t feel that I will ever heal

…

Guide me through the night

Without an unpleasant thought

Even if it may mean

That my heart be forever lost

Let me rest my head

Upon your tender lap

And forget all my pain

That comes with this trap

…

I lay in the arms of fire

And you are pouring oil

My ashes will be lost in the wind

Or mixed with soil

…

I am trembling in the cold

You take away my light

I feel so fragile all alone

My bones ache at night

…

And I know the truth is a lie

And all that is good is bad

All that is right is wrong

And all the happiness is sad

It barely matters now

How this will turn out to be

I am in the dark

No light to set me free

…

I am unreal and I don’t feel that I will ever heal

If I was a fire, I would keep you warm

Till you don’t need to rub your arms

And stay with you through the cold night

And drive away your fears with my light

…

If I was a breeze on a hot summer day

To you, so carefully I would find my way

Yearning for so long and for so much

 I will cool you with my touch

…

But I am just a little boy with love to give

And sweet words that have helped me live

And I can only write a poem for you

And hope that you would love me too
