A Sad Ballet – Demo

Her heart’s been broken too many times
She’s doubts that she’ll ever truly be loved
The unrequited love that’s always passing her by
No one can see what’s going on

All he wants is for her to see
The pain in his eyes and recognize
That everything is not all right
All the things he can’t say
It’s killing him from the inside

But it’s ok to feel this way
It gets better with time
I promise that these feelings won’t stay
I’ll understand

He was thinking that this would last
And you would be the one to call him back
No one ever sees you standing there
They’d never think you would
Take this plunge into sound

But it’s ok to feel this way
It gets better with time
I promise that these feelings won’t stay
Look around, we’re all on the ground
We’re all with you now
Close your eyes and hear all this now
It’s all around
You will never forget this sound

Looking at moments in your past
Things that you’d almost forgotten now
You’ll punish yourself or else you start to fear
That you’ll forget them, but you won’t my dear
Looking for answers you fell off the track
Wishing that you could take everything back
And you could end it, and you could end it, and you could end it

He’s not much better, he’s stuck in his head
Your problems always follow him into bed
Hoping to find a home for you
You’re broken and he does not know what to do
This life he is doomed to live
Giving until there’s nothing else to give
He’s looking for everything you want
You cannot see what you have done

You’re falling, you’re falling , you’re falling , you’re falling now
You’re falling, you’re falling , you’re falling , you’re falling down

Four long months inside these walls
Does anyone hear you when you start to call
I started to write and then all of these words
Came pouring out, ones you still haven’t heard
You say that we are acquaintances
But that I just can’t I just can’t accept
This was long overdue

You’re falling, you’re falling , you’re falling , you’re falling now
You’re falling, you’re falling , you’re falling , you’re falling down

Remember this feeling
Don’t ever stop breathing

I was hoping for a chance to see you again
Down the road we know
I was failing at the one thing I was good at
Letting go
Of someone I know

You were the one that showed me how
Fire could heat and warm the ground
And when we’d woke we’d only found
Black dirt

As I’d look amazed you’d find
There was was nothing on my mind
Except the one thing I can’t bind
At all

And you taught me how fire works

I left you love and I am so sorry for what I have caused
The damage I’ve done
When your world falls apart I won’t be there
To pick you up
Because I am gone

I never thought I would see you again

You were the one that showed me how
Fire could heat and warm the ground
And when we’d woke we’d only found
Black dirt

As I’d look amazed you’d find
There was was nothing on my mind
Except the one thing I can’t bind
At all

Didn’t you know this was an empty place
I thought the human race would give me more time
Didn’t you know I wasn’t made for this
Looking and hoping past this light

Breathing is hard when you are out in space
I thought the human race would be more kind
Didn’t you know I wasn’t built for this
Clusters and galaxies entwined

Oh can’t you see
This is not how it’s meant to be
So take my hand
And run away with me
We’ll live indoors
Where they cannot see
I’ll be with you
You’ll be with me

Hope’s a dishonest thing
I couldn’t bring myself to tell you what I want
Everything that I couldn’t say
I’ll hold it in it’ll tear me apart

I was looking
You were searching
Everything that you said missed me

I was looking past these endings
You were wanting everything

I was there but I just couldn’t see
Everything that you wanted when you turned your back on me
I wondered why this could never be
Everything you’re searching for is a distant memory
I was you and it turns out you were me
Dreaming past these empty homes of a distant future scene
Remember me I don’t have much to say
Everything that’s gone away has gone away today

I was waiting
You were waiting
I was feeling everything

I was waiting
You were waiting
Must this all go on

What if I said there was no one else like you
Who made me feel like this
who did the things you do

And what if I said I’d go almost anywhere
as long as you were there
Would that make you scared

But we’re running away
Searching for the things
You said you’d never say
Searching for a resolution
Every single day
Is harder than the one before
I don’t want you to say
That I was the one

I’m not the one I’m not the one
To ease your broken heart
I’m not the one out on the road
I’ll tear you apart
Everything’s grey turning to black
Since you took my heart
Looking around down on the ground
I’ll tear you apart

You were like a ghost from last summer
Hoping this could be so much better
Looking at the sky at night when all you saw was just false light
And we would look around at each other

Like last summer
You don’t have to be all that better
You don’t have to be

I was hoping for a chance to find you
Looking for that heart that I could mend
In the outskirts of this town where sadness dragged you down
You were looking past this end

Like last summer
You don’t have to be all that better
You don’t have to be like the others
A fading memory

You were everything that I need
You were everything that I dreamed

Mountain passes high in the north hemisphere
We’ve been in this place too long
The sun was out til midnight and so my dear
You learned that my heart’s not strong

Oh my dear
Won’t you come here

I was waiting for a change
You were waiting all the same
From New York to Kyoto
Everything we didn’t know grew clear
We’ll wait til there’s nothing left to fear

We couldn’t find an answer in the desert plains
Memories only make you sad
I said if you weren’t careful I’d fall in love
You asked if that would be so bad

You don’t even know
How fast these feelings grow

I was waiting for a change
You were waiting all the same
From New York to Kyoto
Everything we didn’t know grew clear
We’ll wait til there’s nothing left to fear

We didn’t have a chance
I’d like to think we had a chance
I’d like to think we had a chance
But we didn’t have a chance

I was waiting for a change
You were waiting all the same
From New York to Kyoto
Everything we didn’t know grew clear
The love we want just isn’t here

I wouldn’t put it past your brothers
To make you think these awful things
I wouldn’t put it past your brothers
I wouldn’t put it past your mother
She never really liked me
I wouldn’t put it past your mother

I wouldn’t put it past them

Friends drift apart
I know it’s hard
When you’re up and down that boulevard
You seem awful sweet she says to me
Then she turns around and looks at me
And says I’m not going anywhere

I wouldn’t put it past the old ones
With these thoughts inside their heads
I wouldn’t put it past the old ones
I wouldn’t put it past the young ones
Always being where they’re led
I wouldn’t put it past the young ones

I wouldn’t put it past them

Friends drift apart
I know it’s hard
When you’re up and down that boulevard
You seem awful sweet she says to me
Then she turns around and looks at me
And says I’m not going anywhere

I’m not going anywhere
This I promise to you

Sometimes I just can’t seem to recollect
Everything that went inside your little head
But I never thought I’d know you like I did in the end

You were like a brilliant summer ray
Cascading through the winter’s misty haze
And I never thought I’d know you like I did in the end

I saw you before you even knew who I was
Then love inside you grew
But I never thought I’d know you like I did in the end

Won’t you take me away again

All the things that I will never say
All the things that you’ll never say to me
I never thought I’d know you
Hate to know you
Like I did in the end
