Related quotes: when i left the party...

I Do Not Want To Be Lost In The Crowd Of Tongues In Cheeks

when i left the party
i lied, i told someone that i am going to the rest room,
i rushed to my car and sped towards my way home,
i am not home at parties, they give me
gooseflesh,
my hairs like to rise like i were
electrocuted,

in my isolation i feel real, a king in my own small territory,
when i am with you
people, i become so scared, scared about what i think i do not really
know,
my senses are sharp and it knows that there is danger
of being
lost again amidst the crowd
their tongues inside their cheeks
and you just don't know what happens next,

and so i left earlier that you expected,
i simply have no more reason to stay and be melted like a candle
in that big fire
of hypocrisy.

Making A Candle

i pick up the pieces
of melted candle

these are the wastes
left-overs of those already used

burned, i cut them with a sharp knife
like bread crumbs and

put them all in a small kettle
a little fire melts all of them

i got a thread a slice of tin
as weight inside a mold

i pour the melted candle there
and set the newly formed one aside

i reflect upon life
i reflect upon the people with wasted lives

vis-a-vis
the new candle that i made.

The Party

As we were dressing to go out our little girl and boy
Came in and asked if they could go this time
We told them little girls and boys don't belong at parties
And that they should be in bed asleep by nine
The babysitter came in then and we kissed the kids goodbye
And told them that we'd be home soon and told them not to cry
Then we left for the party like we'd so often done
Thinkin' only of ourselves and not our little ones
The party started out wild and it grew wilder as the night wore on
With drinking laughing teling dirty jokes nobody thinkin' of home
Then the stranger feeling came over me and it chilled me to the bones
And I told my wife that we'd better leave the party
Cause I felt that we were needed at home
As we rode along I got to thinking of how the kids that mornin'
Had asked if we would take them to church the next day
And how I'd put 'em off like I'd so often done
By sayin' we'd probably get home too late
Then my thoughts were interrupted by the sound of sirens
As they cut through the still night air
Then we turned down our street that's when we saw the fire
The rest was like a nightmare
We took their little bodies to church the next day
Though we'd left the party early we still got home too late

Scared

I'm scared of life and what i'll become
I'm scared of not being able to go on
I'm scared of what will happen
I'm scared of your reaction
I'm scared of letting go
I'm scared of what i don't know
I'm scared of losing you
I'm scared of being used
I'm scared of being hurt beyond repair
I'm scared of whats out there
I'm scared and so alone
I'm scared and searching for a place to call home
Will you hold me and fight away my fears
Will you tell me it's gonna be okay and wipe away my tears
Will you hold my hand as i walk through the dark
Will you stay and not leave or break my heart
Will you be there to pick me up when i fall down
Because i really need someone right now

If Youre Gone

I think Ive already lost you
I think youre already gone
I think Im finally scared now
You think Im weak - but I think youre wrong
I think youre already leaving
Feels like your hand is on the door
I thought this place was an empire
But now Im relaxed - I cant be sure
I think youre so mean - I think we should try
I think I could need - this in my life
I think Im just scared - I think too much
I know this is wrong its a problem Im dealing
If youre gone - maybe its time to go home
Theres an awful lot of breathing room
But I can hardly move
If youre gone - baby you need to come home
Cuz theres a little bit of something me
In everything in you
I bet youre hard to get over
I bet the room just wont shine
I bet my hands I can stay here
I bet you need - more than you mind
I think youre so mean - I think we should try
I think I could need - this in my life
I think Im just scared - that I know too much
I cant relate and thats a problem Im feeling
If youre gone - maybe its time to go home
Theres an awful lot of breathing room
But I can hardly move
If youre gone - baby you need to come home
Cuz theres a little bit of something me
In everything in you
I think youre so mean - I think we should try
I think I could need - this in my life
I think Im just scared - do I talk too much
I know this is wrong its a problem Im dealing
If youre gone - maybe its time to go home
Theres an awful lot of breathing room
But I can hardly move
If youre gone - baby you need to come home
Cuz theres a little bit of something me
In everything in you

She

She has gone away

I wanted that.

She has gone away

I am left to myself and my cooking gadgets

If she were there the house would seem to be crowded

I am scared of a crowd

I want to be left to myself

I enjoy to be alone

She has gone away

I miss the crowd in a sunny street

She was a crowd in the street in herself

I am feeling cold

But I am scared of warmth

I am scared of the din of the city

It is cold here

She has gone away

I enjoy the coldness

I am alright

Am I

Home

”IS A HOME WHERE YOU FEEL SCARED OR SAFE?
IS A HOME WHERE THERES LAUGHING OR CRYING AND YELLING?
IS A HOME WHERE ALL YOU FEEL IS HATE AND ANGER?
IS A HOME WHERE THERE ARE SLAPPING FROM EVERY ROOM?
MY HOME IS MUCH WORSE
I FEEL LIKE THIS EVRY MORNING AND EVERY NIGHT
THE MORE I GO THOME HE MORE I DONT WANT TO GO
BUT THAS A HOME TO ME AND THAS HOW IT’S GOING TO STAY

Peeping Tom

Careful not to fall
Have to climb your wall
cause youre the one who makes me feel much taller than you are
Im just a peeping tom
On my own for far too long
Problems with the blues nothing left to loose
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
Face that fills a hole
Stole my broken soul
One that makes me seem to feel much taller than you are
Im just a peeping tom
On my own for far too long
Troubles with the gear
Nothing left to fear
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
With every bet I lost
Every trick I tossed
Youre still the one
Who makes me feel much taller than you are
Im just a peeping tom
On my own for far too long
Problems with the blues
Nothing left to lose
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
Im weightless
Im bare
Im faithless
Im scared
Im scared
Im scared
Im scared
Im scared

I Dont Wanna Know

Well you followed me this far
Did you find out whats inside
Can you tell me what Im doing
Is it something I should hide
I dont know for sure
I dont wanna find out what I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Or anyone to second guess no
You told me all your secrets
And I filled you up with lies
Now Im living honestly
Because I said goodbye
I cant go home anymore
I dont wanna find out what I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to second guess
I was losing all my senses
I was losing all control
It was getting so offensive
Now you want me back for more
And I just wont go
If you think you know the answers
Youve got a lot of gall
Cause it gives you satisfaction
Knowing nothing at all
I dont care anymore
And I dont wanna find out what I left there for
What I left there for
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to take a second guess no
Im not scared and Im not lonely
Saving all my money or my breath yeah
Im not looking for an answer
Im not asking anyone to take a second guess no
Take a second guess yeah
Take a second guess yeah
(hey)
Take a second guess yeah
(hey)
Take a second guess yeah
Take a second guess
(I cant talk to you)
Take a second guess
(yeah, yeah I know)
Take a second guess
(well I gotta go okay)
Take a second guess
Take a second guess
(over one billion served)
Take a second guess
Oh yeah

Scared

-sneaky!
Im scared, Im scared, Im scared,
Im scared, so scared.
Im scared, Im scared, Im scared,
As the years roll away,
And the price that I paid
And the straws slip away.
You dont have to suffer,
It is what it is.
No bell book or candle
Can get you out of this, oh no!
Im scarred, Im scarred, Im scarred,
Im scarred, oh no.
Im scarred, Im scarred, Im scarred,
Evry day of my life,
I just manage to survive,
I just wanna stay alive.
You dont have to worry
In heaven or hell.
Just dance to the music,
You do it so well, well, well!
Hatred and jealousy, gonna be the death of me,
I guess I knew it right from the start.
Sing out about love and peace,
Dont wanna see the red raw meat,
The green eyed goddamn straight from your heart.
Im tired, Im tired, Im tired
Of being so alone.
No place to call my home,
Like a rolling stone.
Stand even!
Wow!
Hey, yeah!

Someone I Won't Miss

There’s fire in your eyes
No, wait that’s just your lies
Sorry did I make you sad
Well I really don’t feel bad

You hurt me, left me scared and clawed
I never knew you were so flawed

Don’t worry I give it all back
Because I realised I never did lack
All those things you said I missed
Once I got out the poison of your kiss

You hurt me, left me scared and clawed
I never knew you were so flawed

Once I thought I was so alive
No more struggling to survive
But you showed me I was wrong
Showed me everyone betrays you before long

You hurt me, left me scared and clawed
I never knew you were so flawed

But now I’m so happy and free
Coz without you I can be me
So let me just say this
You are someone I will I never miss
