Upside Down

A wolf howling into the midsummer�s sky
Reminds me of that look in your eyes
And how you kiss me
So distinctively
So fulfilling
Meant to be
Yet I can�t take it
Any longer

I tell you to kiss me
Deeper than you ever have before
Because this will be the last time that I let you
But you don�t
Out of fear
I cry out to you
You sit down and cry
Looking up at the pitch black sky
Thinking of how crazy it is
Wondering what you did so wrong
How fear beats down and crushes the soul

I gaze into your eyes
You try to fight it
And try to find answers
You�re only left with more questions
Answers only visible among the stars

What�s happened to us?
To our bliss?
Our love?
To our void?

Can we give it all up?
Should we give it all up?
Do you ache for me?
Like I ache for you?
To feel you again
Your thoughts
Your touch
Your love
Your kiss
Delicate fingertips upon my face
Tantalizingly perfect

What went wrong?

All we know is
We turned our love upside down
Into despair
Into everything it thought not to be
And constantly we�re running on a carousel
Going round and round in circles
Never getting anywhere

We were so pretty
Picture perfect
But it�s all turned to pity

We smile at each other
Through this madness
And the excessive sadness
And quietly whisper goodbye
The final one
The final kiss
The final touch

It begins to rain
Pouring down tiny droplets of pain
Reflecting how we feel
For ending it all
When it shouldn�t have ever gone wrong at all

It�s unbearable
We kiss once more
It was wrong, but unstoppable
For our love
Is still gently floating
Around in each of our hearts

It�s still inside of us
How long can we ignore it?
Not much longer

What more can we do?
For is this not true?
All we can do is give in
Give into the love
Into the cold world around us
But what would that prove?
This whole thing was a goodbye
Unseen
Unnoticeable
Unknown

We turned our world around
Just to end up with a goodbye
And now it�s upside down

We could start all over again
But would that ever cease the pain?
The betrayal we feel?
And if so, it would only end up the same as before
One last and final kiss
Goodbye
