Recognize the danger and step back from desire,
When the city lights are reflected in her eyes.
Understand the motives as time has no real meaning,
What I can not have you will not compromise.
Enchanted by the moment, lost is all perspective,
A smile a touch a matching sense of truth.
If I walk away I'll never know the outcome,
But if I stay I have everything to lose.
I'm living without her.
Gotta make it without her.
No doubt I'm on the way.
Feels like I've been here before.
No room to make mistakes.
But life's not about closing doors.
Unspoken messages.
Either a wall or a door.
Have to interpret this.
Is it worth the fight anymore?
When everything is new you risk and take the chances,
Whether sitting at a table or riding in a car.
Don't you know this feeling's temporary?
There will come a day when "new" is very far.
No doubt I'm on the way.
Feels like I've been here before.
No room to make mistakes,
But life's not about closing doors.

after the crash
is not the time
after the shooting
is not the time
after the flood
is not the time
after the breakup
is not the time
why do we always act after the fact
when we see the danger signs ahead of time
why do we hesitate, procrastinate
why do we always wait...until it's too late
after the loss
is not the time
after the outburst
is not the time
after the layoff
is not the time
after the failure
is not the time
why do we always act after the fact
when we see the danger signs ahead of time
why do we hesitate, procrastinate
why do we always wait...until it's too late
after the illness
is not the time
after the sex
is not the time
after the promise
is not the time
after the death
is not the time
is not the time

No time where I am, so free to exist,
Only the sense of you lies like a shadow
On the snow, in my mind.
I'd do it again, live life as I choose
Torn by the fourteenth link, inside a square,
Never fair to get that hand.
Exhausted by the hope of you.
My desires are my only crime.
Each day denial of myself.
I'll wish for life another time.
I walk to the window no longer afraid of the dark,
That's where I meet you now and feel the need,
That always bleeds,
That never sleeps.
Innocuous meetings become something so much more,
Adrift in a sea of attraction I can't forget,
Do I repent,
Or just accept?
Exhausted by the hope of you.
A chance to live or just survive.
How to regret the uncontrolled?
There's more to life than just the rules.
Look at life it goes by then I try to remember what it meant,
No regrets for the chance I take.
If it dies, realize that there's no way back again.
Burning bridge blocking every path.
If I leave it alone, could I still live with myself?
Surrender wondering, for certainty,
How much of me,
Would still be free?
But giving up false hope is always the sensible thing.
Would it result in achieving serenity?
Could I release,
And rest in peace?
Exhausted by the hope of you.
My desires are my only crime.
Each day denial of myself.
I'll wish for life another time.
