Marisa Nelson

Her dad was a drug dealer
And her mom was a druggie
Fights were and everyday thing
And there was not a quiet moment in the house
...

I can see in the dark
I stumble in the past
And everything just fades away
There's gonna be an accident
...

Shimmering in the night
I saw her eyes
I clenched my fists tight
In thoughts I would float away
...

I live in my head
My head makes these dreams
I live for these dreams in my head
There's still emptiness
...

There are times I dream of you and me
And how perfect the pieces fit
I search for ways to make you see
There would be no conflicts
...

You are my friend and I hope that you know
I love you with every little peice of my soul
You can beat on her and I won't have a care
She wants to throw me down and pull my hair
...

When you sit there in the dark
I want to come find you and sit and talk
See whats on your mind and you know
You can come to me if you ever feel low
...

Into the oceans where the currents met,
making their way calmly next to the sun set.
Gazing upon this marvelous view,
two on a bench; myself and you.
...

The first time I saw you I felt this feeling in my chest
This feeling of longing and a mysterious interest
You walked in the room as fast as you walked out
And I sat and wondered what you were all about
...

I thought you were the one
But then you let me go
I thought I was in love
Because you let me grow
...

We are meant to be
Whether you believe so or not
Because everyone has their person
And that's the only thing they got
...

I've learned that everything I thought, was wrong
You were all I ever thought I needed
As I walk these streets I'm ready to move on
But maybe I'm just lying to myself
...

Your hair is brown just like all the leaves
And your soul is so warm unlike the cold air
Even though it is frigid out, you warm me
I always wondered who would fix my hearts tare
...

She's not sure what she wants
But somethings always gotta give
You give your love to her
Responses seem unclear
...

You run around trying to find love
But no one seems to love you
Your insides twist and bend as
You give your whole self to
...

Lay with me beneath the stars
Let's stay here until we forget who we are
Wave goodbye to all the cars passing by
And please don't leave because if you do I will die
...

Tick tock, tick tock
What is this noise I hear?
Tick tock, tick tock
It's so easy to fear
...
