Float up to kill me without a sound
Cute razorblades cut through the air
And in my fading consciousness
I saw you there

And I, I want you there holding my hand
I need you there doing all you can
But you refuse and that's so you
You only do what you want to
And it's ok

Pretty pink stars in a purple light
Do little to signal the end of the night
A body broken down wrapped up in violence
Begging for the whispers
To gently break the silence

And I, I want you there holding my hand
I need you there doing all you can
But you refuse and that's so you
You only do what you want to
And it's ok

If we were perfect would we have made it this far
Without a doubt we would've burned away
If we were perfect would we have fallen so far
Without a doubt we would've learned someday

Make everything crystal clear
Make everything better while you're here
Ice down the black and blue
Start getting ready to bring me back to you

Butterfly bullets in a back alley now
Float up to kill me without a sound
And I saw you there

The Bullet You Never Heard

Butterfly bullets in a back alley now
Float up to kill me without a sound
Cute razorblades cut through the air
And in my fading consciousness
I saw you there

And I, I want you there holding my hand
I need you there doing all you can
But you refuse and that's so you
You only do what you want to
And it's ok

Pretty pink stars in a purple light
Do little to signal the end of the night
A body broken down wrapped up in violence
Begging for the whispers
To gently break the silence

And I, I want you there holding my hand
I need you there doing all you can
But you refuse and that's so you
You only do what you want to
And it's ok

If we were perfect would we have made it this far
Without a doubt we would've burned away
If we were perfect would we have fallen so far
Without a doubt we would've learned someday

Make everything crystal clear
Make everything better while you're here
Ice down the black and blue
Start getting ready to bring me back to you

Butterfly bullets in a back alley now
Float up to kill me without a sound
And I saw you there

Great Write! Wonderful song, i would love to hear this, it seems so dark but at the same time a detect a hint of hope, however small it may be, it is there. Very well done.

James,
You are by far one, if not the only person, who can write lyrics that even without the music, get me dancing. My whole body takes in every word, I hear it deep within my heart and soul. And I feel what it seems you're trying to get me to feel. This is one of the best, if not THE BEST, pieces of writing I have ever seen. I saw little pieces of this off and on while you were perfecting it and never in a million years did I think it would turn out this gorgeous. You are my favorite by far on the site. You are such a great writer and you deserve the praise of a great writer. I applaud this and every other beautiful thing you have shared with me and the site. I hope you know I am a huge fan. of you ;) and your writing.

Lindsey

finally had the time to check out your lyrics here. i like this one. it's got an interesting theme to it and flows quite nicely.
"Butterfly bullets in a back alley now
Float up to kill me without a sound
And I saw you there"

Couldnt help commenting again...

"Make everything crystal clear
Make everything better while you're here
Ice down the black and blue
Start getting ready to bring me back to you"

I wonder if you would ever let me show Jared some of your poetry? It says more then anything I could ever write could say. :) James, You're that good. :)
