My last old one....it's a good one though

Stars Lose Their Meaning

Bright nights subside over tidal waves,
A page in this book that cannot complete our history,
Centuries compiled with cemeteries,
We’ll solve this in our era of disgrace.

Crouching in this field, below all these stars,
And they could’ve been ours,
But, now they live in someone else’s eyes.
Disguised by my broken heart, this solvent flesh.

Chorus

This isn’t my night, from where I stand.
Your retinas notched, and arched.
Ready to cover up a target of a heart
Of someone who couldn’t please you.
Will you tempt the fall?
The autumn when every star in the sky lost it’s meaning.

And with these stitches, they reflect our time (or lack of)
One last effort ride, to save your pride.
To a place where you dispel my presence.
Smoothly and equate this to a trial marked staleness.

I’ll collide with pride.
In my severed ties, and crooked lines.
With ribbons that don’t fit so perfectly…
But this barbed wire shines, moonlight follows.

Chorus

I can now look at myself through a novice thought,
I’m a glutton for this punishment,
And my words will echo like the past.
You trade my broken heart for something more useful.

I was willing, and you were wincing.
Does the thought of this burn in over-it eyes.
How can you forget me?
(All of this was for you; all of this was for you)

ah i love that. awesome. one change: the title. it's lame. i understand how it relates to the line the chorus , but 1) it's not the same words..which is good because i love the line in the chorus...(it doesn't have to be the same words, no, but i just wanted to point out how much the line in the chorus rocks:D )and 2) when i read the title of the thread i almost didn't click on it cuz it made me think 'oh..this song's gonna suck...bad title'. but it didn't so i'm glad i checked it out. bottom line: the song rocks. don't stop writing. change the title.
