Always there
Always in the back of my mind
It's never too far
slowly creeping and stalking
with its ever so sweet aroma
always taunting me into falling
Is it really that sweet?
A shard of glass that's so beautiful
yet so ready to break my soul

It starts as a silence
slowly rising in volume
And just as you're about to break,
it falls back to nothingness
starting the cycle again
It's like two people sitting together
so glassy eyed
knowing talking would
reignite the fire in their minds

Fighting hard to resist the temptation
clouding my every thought
My mind is saying stay away
While my heart is saying go
This forever going tug of war
is pushing me past my limit
How long can i stay and watch
and know I can't live it?
This dreaded hope that breaks my heart
turning every spark to fire
But I know it can not be this way
I will never give in to desire
