WHAT A SHAME

What A Shame

Flee from the crow and dwell with me : 
Come let's let the good of love run in our heart's 
Let's talk to the crowd about love and good work's 
Of the small and the big : 
I'm better off in silence, let me be don't you see 
What you have been doing to me ? 
I'm trying to take in things lightly , 
To hoard brings hate , to climb brings giddiness  
Like a child at play during the day when the sky is not gray , 
Emotions are taking over me don't you see ?  
and I can't cover them neatly.  
I'm scared that you might see what this crazy life did to me. 
It's almost driving me blind like the night , 
Desire no more this life of the dark is not of my heart ! 
I want more in my life then this . 
When looking at you is a such a view I want to hold you  
And say every thing is going to be alright but that would be a lie; 
I can't even keep my eyes off of you what is my poor heart to do ? 
Then I pray and my heart has to say , the truth shall set me free  
Walk away from what is tormenting me . 
I know this love I have for you is hopeless, and running on confused, 
I keep drowning in deep love, aimless of the heat of the night with a 
Man that was not right . 
I keep falling for you, call me shameless.  
Hoping for something to a sky that's starless.  
A moon so dim it makes me sick to watch what is coming next ! 
I need this silence even if it senseless.  
your presence just makes me speechless.  
I hold on to what I know that holds my soul . 
Your the night and I am day this love will not remain , 
You would drive me in sane what a sham !
