In the Morning

Your lips were sweeter than a merry-go-round
And richer than the roaring seas
Your eyes were deeper than I'd delve to go
And rarer than I dared to dream

In the mourning
There'll be nowhere left to hide
No more doors to shelter lives
For you and me
In the mourning
There'll be nowhere left to run
Only left to come undone
For you and me

Your lips were meant to meet mine
But were they made to remain?
As tides and seasons change
I can barely hold on to what is real

In the mourning
There'll be nowhere left to hide
No more doors to shelter lives
For you and me
In the mourning
There'll be nowhere left to run
Only left to come undone
For you and me

In the mourning

When we wake, forgive me when I stutter
Quickly lose my bravado, my swagger
Without the liquor to provide me
With a smut to hide under
My softer side and emotions are quickly laid asunder
With no more coochie-coo to cope it's quickly clear what is up
The devil's just run out this cup
The sword and sookie taint the crush
A simple mesh to vest the deeper verted test that we hold
The basic instinct to regress, embrace those physical goals
Denied my mind's true gaze, lacking the strength to phase
My true waves of feelings, a life on my own, healing
But know I get my ego's mediocre medicine
Easy getting by for getting, slipping through the physical haze
You're such a queen, undeniably
But your mind and heart, how it enriches me
I didn't have the strength to speak, wasted what could've been
Let the sunrise upon the scene
So reveal all the bravery we lack in league
When we wake
