on the roof again

i posted a few under a different name a couple of years ago, and some people figured it out even... but i wanted to try and get some creative juices flowing by reading some of yours (and mine as well) and nothing's coming just yet...
so i figured a lil repost might help the brain along...
in the meantime, enjoy.

*bittersweet (blood and rainbows)

blood and rainbows; all i see
and this is my apology
it wasn't supposed to get out of hand
you were just supposed to understand

and all your smiles can't save this hurt
     all i wanted...
and all the lines get a little blurred
     all i wanted...
and i'm not sure that my heart can convince my nerve

the memory starts to fade
the dreams turn into stains
a bittersweet eulogy

blood and rainbows; all i see
i don't want your sympathy
lonely mornings from last night's lust
the guilty flowers have turned to dust

all the days you left me here
     all i wanted...
last night's promises in my ears
     all i wanted...
confusion clears and i'm left choking on the fear

the memory starts to fade
the dreams turn into stains
a bittersweet eulogy

blood and rainbows; all i see
still the pain shows through the seams
technicolor dreams of you and me
on a black and white reality

and now i see we'll never be
the things i thought we were
it's killin' me, but i believe
that the world is still pure

words unspoken, rip me open
now i'm dying on the bedroom floor


blood and rainbow's symphony
a bittersweet cacophony



we are what we seek
