Airda Jones

I'm on a wire
Up a thousand feet high
And it only takes one step
For it all to decide
...

I lay here wondering
Seems like all I do
That's all that's possible
Since I am without you
...

I always had my arms out
Wondering just when
You would give up and give in
And just fall into them
...

Hold on to the rope tight
It just might break
And with that devilish grin
I cannot be saved
...

Leaf, will you flutter down
And consume the growth of brown
Taunt the bird with your flutter
And condemn him to the gutter
...

You bring me to life
When you breathe the sun
Bringing the light
That I have shunned
...

Little broken butterfly
You can easily fix those wings
All those tears and scars
Can be healed with cloth and strings
...

Being here
Is just enough
But sometimes
Its just as tough
...

How could I forget
That night we spent
Especially when you suddenly
Just up and left
...

We never follow the trends
We shouldn't start now
But now the difference
Is getting to me somehow
...

What was once one piece
No longer can be
Now that times have changed
And is no longer free
...

Butterfly, you flew away
And at first I didn't know
How each hard day was
Straining on you so
...

Secrets, secrets
They're creeping up
Secrets, secrets
They're adding up
...

I am frightened
And hard to admit
That I am scared
That will be all of it
...

I'm hoping for a ring
I'm hoping for a dream
I'm hoping for everything
Or so it would seem
...

Believe that roses will bloom
Around its crusted, frosty bloom
Believe that wings will onward fly
Even if flames should fray its ties
...

I tried and I tried
But I can't say I can
I never could truly
So that is why I ran
...

All eyes on us
We stood out in the crowd
Before we blended in
Now we stand by each other's side proud
...

The strikes are against me
More than you could count
But I don't think it's fair
To just single me out
...

You'd be breaking my bones
If I really had any
As weird as it sounds
I'm just not sorry
...
