PIECES OF LIGHT

“You know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is really healing and beautiful and sort of poetic? It’s not. It’s just garbage and it’s pain. You know what’s better? Love. The day that you start thinking that love is overrated is the day that you’re wrong. The only thing wrong with love and faith and belief is not having it.”

LOVE

“Love is being stupid together.”

— Paul Valery

LOVE

HELLO

REMEMBER ME, OH GOD, FOR GOOD

I hold your back against my chest
Rest my lips gently on your neck
Watch you stir so peacefully
I wonder if you’re dreaming of me

Hello, hello, can I get you something?
Goodbye, goodbye, cause he gave you nothing
But you know I would
Yeah you know I would

How am I supposed to keep
All to myself when I can see
Everything that I could ever need
Is standing right in front of me

Keep a piece of you so close to me
So when I sing this song you feel my grief
Every night on this fucking stage
So far from you, but so close to fame

When you’re gone the days seem so long
Time keeps ticking but I can’t move on
But when you’re here it all becomes so clear
I’m only happy when you’re near
