MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS ♡ "POWER & CONTROL ♡

Emotions

Though this moment I feel Alone,

The pain you caused will heal on its own

Through these days you’ll see what’s true

How much your pain is hiding from you.

I’ve done my best, and yet you want more

I am not whole, but the emotions you ask to ignore

For what is expected, this just isn’t fair

Your escape from reality is hard to just bare

I saw life in your eyes for which you returned

We built a whole life, which temptation then burned

It’s hard to let go, and let one just walk

You took the first step, you made the last knock

I know you’re afraid, I’ve seen this before

You run so often, from what you can’t ignore

This is my pledge for you understand and see

You may have run now, but the lesson is free

When you want something the most it may appear

Though that something can turn dark from being unclear

It’s happened before, and this time makes three

Your past catches up when you’re hiding from me

I know there’s a lot for one enjoy

The beauty of life in a city so poised

Why buy the cow when the milk is free

Is that why you run, and from what you can be

Lessons in life are learnt from ones pain

I’ve learnt this before, with nothing to gain

For this is my cry for each one to see

Why lie to those who helped and loved me

If this is the end I want you to know

You have a good heart but you've damaged my soul

You’ve felt this pain too, before you and I

Why revive this to split and make lies.

Believe

Watch how you move in the city on this dark night

Trying to hide from the mood you claimed you had good reason that right

I still like hearing from you, don’t you want to doubt you

But you’ve given me some reason isn’t that right?

I’ve been here before, opened that door but struck twice

Worried to the core that what you did just wasn’t too bright

You took this from me,  stole what you’d seen  

Yet when its time to give take that from me didn’t feel just right

I want to believe in the words you say

You’ll make it up today, that’s what you say

I want to dive into urges too, holding it back from you

Won’t show such distain

I would still enjoy standing right there beside you

Should you change your mind and show you want someone right there for you

Waiting is a choice you put there instead don’t you

Money is the key but happiness wasn’t bought only past due

I want to believe in the words you say

You’ll make it up today, that’s what you say

I want to dive into urges too, holding it back for you

Don’t show such distain

Your searching through the options too, who’s at bay

Your searching through the options too, who’s today

Your holding back on who’s to play, search away

I want to show you my energy just from that air you breathe

Soulless City

I never made it as a big man

Wearing suits, attending soirees just like you do

My art can be so bland

But that’s what helps me deal with what life puts me through

Wanting more just like you do

Pushing through just like we all do

Its not like me to want souly

I was hiding from my hurtful story

This time that you’re wasting

You felt this too or am I just mistaken

I’ve been tough

I’ve been drowned

Through the years in a heartless city

This lost souls search through tears

Yet they could never find this

Couldn’t find this

I can’t say that I didn’t see this

I brushed my sleeve and moved right too you

You must have been so glad

Cause when the fear struck you pushed away, didn’t you

Wanting more just like you do

Pushing through just like we all do

It’s not like me to want souly

I was hiding from my hurtful story

This time that you’re wasting

You felt this too or am I just mistaken

I’ve been tough

I’ve been drowned

Through the years in a heartless city

This lost souls search through tears

Yet they could never find this

Time

All I want is time

All I want is Time

To feel good just like you

I felt those lips kiss softly

Rolled around with no complication

And you held me closely

Loosing breathe and you felt so safe ya

I’ve been touched

I’ve been found

Is this the end to a hopeful story

Those strong eyes see through mine

Because all I asked was for time….

One More Time

I felt the breeze and found that kiss

Wondered around lost but that I couldn’t miss

The heat that had come my way for sure

Could you be the brave one and endure

The sense that something new has come

A feeling that I couldn’t have undone

The tender embrace which helped create

A notion, A Vibe that I didn’t want to escape

Lips so soft they felt like silk

Your hand that followed it made me melt

You knew how to touch ones soul so deep

Wrapped up in one another without the sleep

Intense and true as fate would say

The clock struck 9 and you could not stay

You held me close and caressed me tight

All I could ask is for one more night

xoxo Will xoxo

Hush Hush - Nicole

I never needed you to be strong
I never needed you for pointing out my wrongs
I never needed pain, I never needed strain
My love for you is strong enough you should have known

I never needed you for judgement
I never needed you to question what I spend
I never ask for help
I take care of myself
I don't why you think you got a hold on me

And its a little late for conversations
There isn't anything for you to say
And my eyes hurt, hands shiver
So look at me and listen to me because

I don't want to stay another minute
I don't want you to say a single word
Hush hush
Hush hush

There is no other way, I get the final say
Because I don't want to, do this any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say
Hush hush
Hush hush
Ive already spoken, our love is broken
Baby hush hush

I never needed your corrections
On everything from how I act to what I say
I never needed words
I never needed hurts
I never needed you to be there everyday

Im sorry for the way I let go
From everything I wanted when you came along
But I am never beaten, broken not defeated
I know next to you is not where I belong

And its a little late for explanations
There isn't anything that you can do
And my eyes hurt, hands shiver
So you will listen when I say baby

I don't want to stay another minute
I dot want you to say a single word
Hush hush
Hush hush

There is no other way, I get the final say
Because I don't want to do this any longer
I don't want you there's nothing left to say
Hush hush
Hush hush

I've already spoken, our love is broken
Baby hush hush
No more words
No more lies
No more crying
No more pain
No more hurt
No more trying

I don't want to stay another minute
I don't want you to say a single word

Hush hush
Hush hush
There is no other way, I get the final say
Because I don't want to, do this any longer
I don't want you, there's nothing left to say

Hush hush
Hush hush
I've already spoken, our love is broken
Baby hush hush

Cold Winter

Can the morning bring more delight?

Can a phone call really change what is right

Neither parties wanting to mention what’s the break

Messages wondering what from who gives and who takes

Emotions run high in the season of cold

Pondering why such a wait and for no time to hold

Is there something to be changed in the way that we speak

Would much matter if one had no care to be reached

Why ignore something in which fate had dealt

What’s in your fears to hinder what could be felt

Where you the one cast aside from a former love

When tensions ran high did you pray above

Remembering in that first day we met

You had thoughts of what was meant

The city is bare and for all to see

The lost only wonder but that’s not for me

xoxo Will xoxo
