The storm



Oh I’m waiting, waiting, waiting on a brave storm
To roll on in and break these walls down
I built them with nails and screws
Held them together with your - I love you’s
But darling I should have known
That action speaks louder than words do
And you’d leave just as our house was finished
Only I was foolish enough to stay.

Yes I’m waiting, waiting, waiting on a brave storm
That rattles trees and shakes their branches
With raindrops that do deadly dances
To fall heavy on the roof I built for me and you
I put in hard work to keep you safe
And give you shade from the mighty sun
But like true love you came undone
No support beams put in place
No remorse on your beautiful face
And to think for me you were the one.

So I’m waiting, waiting, waiting on a brave storm
To knock this house of lies down
I wish to be free from your sins
Lover, you have thought me wisely
You broke my heart when I let you in
Lover, I will choose cautiously from now
I found my strength within
My storm is about to begin.

Breakdown

Well, I thought knew myself more 
Thought I had the strength in me to stay and fight 
All the sticks and stones that broke my bones 
And every little of word of theirs, in their game of thrones 
But Lord, I’m weak and still without a cure 
Oh, and it’s not that simple enough for me to ignore 
Yeah, I wish it were simple enough to ignore. 
 
I remember the old days, when things went wrong 
I’d call on my Grandpa to pick me off the ground 
Mama was busy and daddy was never home 
To hear my troubles and lend me a shoulder to lean on 
And now that he’s gone, now that the dark has won 
It feels like love just built me up to break me down 
Yeah, Love done built me up just to break me down 
 
Well, I was told by some, you need to love someone 
When you felt pain you’ll have somewhere warm to run 
My lover, she was beautiful, too beautiful not be cruel 
She made use of me, the queen and her worker bee 
And I lost myself defending her lies to everyone 
It felt like love just built me up to break me down 
Oh, Love done built me up just to break me down
 
Now I’m a religious man in my heart of hearts 
My faith in god has always been strong 
I’d pray that he’d pick me out of the lost and found 
But god is just a common man, in a crown of thorns 
We were the ones who left Nola to drown 
Yeah, God’s not above us, he’s each and everyone 
Some do good and some will cause you harm 
Love will build you up, just to break you down 
 
Well, Love done built me up just to break me down 
Pushed me to seek solace, lay low, shut down 
Yeah, Love done built me up just break me down.

Crazy (Not to fall for you)

I wish I had the power
To pick all your insecurities
Lock them in a box
Throw away the key
Yeah, I wish I had the power
To show you
You’re as beautiful as you can be
And any boy that doesn’t get on his knees
Would have to be crazy, crazy, CRAZY,
Not to fall for you.
Yeah, he’d have to be crazy, crazy, CRAZY,
Not to fall for you.
There’s a thing about you that sets you apart
In a world so cruel and material
You’re one of the few that think with their heart
Since I’ve got to know you babe
I can say without a doubt
That you put your loved ones first
 leaving yourself at last
You don’t wanna let them down
Just wanna make them proud
So i can’t imagine that any boy
Who walks into your town
Wouldn’t wanna take you out
and make the night never end
walking around and around
Unless he’s crazy, crazy, CRAZY,
Not to fall for you.
He’d have to be crazy, crazy, CRAZY,
Not to fall for you.
He’d have to be batshit crazy
Straight out of an asylum
High on Valium
Have 99 problems
Not to fall for you.

The Best & The Worst

If i would write a thousand poems,
To tell you what i feel
Or say that I love you
What would that reveal?
When what we have
Is deeper than love, babe,
and more complicated in a way.
I like your presence around me
You're my iced tea on a summers day
If it was up to me, babe,
We'd never go our separate ways
Oh, I would challenge you to find
Another man who sees what I see
But if you know me by now
I'll hope you always come up empty
Because you bring out the worst in me.
Its a compliment
Don't be upset, babe
It was never meant
to hurt your feelings
Its just that you are so amazing
You make me wonder
If i deserve to be with you
So i get jealous
of all the people who get close to you
I can be such a child
I'm so afraid to loose you
After all, Its because of you
I'am not a man of yesterdays
Because of you, who eased the fall with a warm embrace
Because of you, I think of love as a happy place
I learnt to dream, because of you
Stepped out of my box, because of you
who turned that box into a home
I can never be alone, because of you
And though I'm hopeful that me and you will be together someday
If you met another man along your way
I would learn to let you go
Yes, I'm thankful
For the man you made of me
I had thought that was all I could be
But darling, you brought out the best in me.
