in disguise
[DOWNLOAD]

hidden fire burning me down
my desire, dressed in your black gown
easy liar, drowning in your cries
lost in shire, throwing it all away, selling another day
save your eyes and chase me around
hold it close and don’t let go,
wasting your life away in disguise
hidden lover holding me down
my desire shames to be your crown.

so far, i’ve been feeling used.
nineteen efforts all refused, thrown back from you.
today, i’ve been gone for hours
and come home to messages i’ve scoured
the years just to find that you were never mine,
all through the time.
so we’ve crossed that line and it’s too late to say…
tell me it’s not over,
we’re not even close to over.
this is not the end, i will see you again.
you can’t fool anyone but me,
playing tricks of tomorrows that bring
dreams of you.
so what can i do if all you say is true?

angel in the hall

December 6, 2009

last night was so long ago,
when we were together.
but tell me i’m not alone,
that this could be forever.
for years, all in regret,
hoping we could just forget
and go on living out our lies,
hurting each other.
but it’s too late to turn this around,
and now you’re gone forever.
angel, where have you gone?
you’re the only one i need to know.
turn around and don’t look back
at the other one whose love you lack.
just turn around and don’t look away
from the other one whose love you gave.

we are playing a show at the best place in the hampton roads area to catch live bands… THE NORVA! and yes, i did say WE. for the first time ever, elocine will be performing as a full band. i’d like to thank justin and mike (from blue morning) for providing bass and drum support, as well as james (from apple of discord) who will be coming all the way down from new jersey to help out on guitar.

i’d also like to thank the guys and gal from city voices for extending the invitation to be a part of the evening’s entertainment. they are a fantastic band, a great group of people, and they’ll be celebrating the release of their first EP, so come on out and show your support.

hope to see you there!

the distance

don’t answer that…
it’s just a call from someone you know.
but he can’t be here.
i’d wait for days for you to show,
and talk to me whenever you want.
so don’t go breaking my heart,
there’s nothing left.
but just so you know, it’s not your fault.
why can’t we be together like we should?
won’t you be my one and only?

through the eyes of a merciless youth

June 3, 2009

remember the day you gave it away?
i thought i lost you forever.
i heard you say you’re leaving today.
i don’t know what to do now.
i couldn’t be all that you want me for.
it’s a relief because you deserve so much more.
i couldn’t see your beauty,
so hold on to the one that you adore.
but you’re still the one that i’ve been waiting for.
