Follow me, follow me
Only if you dare
But, know this…
Don’t question
Just follow
Or you might
Just wander away
To where…
Nobody really knows
But, that too is an adventure
At least,
So I’ve heard
But, you see
There are some who
Don’t find their way back
I wouldn’t like to see you lost
So,
Follow me, follow me
But,
It is all up to you
We all have our roads
To follow here,
and everywhere between
Dreams and reality

i have no love

Somewhere lost in Philadelphia
Between the times of 12am - 4am

To the times where I feel like nothing that I do really means anything
or that none of it will ever really matter
and I need to just disappear - I feel at home alone and lost in cities with nowhere to go,
nowhere to be, no one to be. It’s some time after 2 in the morning and everything feels okay
where I’m just a ghost among a bunch of strangers just going about their lives.

Sometimes, it makes me see things clearly and other times — it just helps make those thoughts feel not so heavy — it’s okay to be lost.

And maybe, this does matter — Maybe, I just don’t know it. Maybe, I just can’t see it.

“
we fall asleep with the color of the sunrise
we count the years on circles under our eyes
we dream in shades of blue and grey…
we speak in tongues of metaphors and stories
we bleed the ink of subtle allegory
we are the needles in the hay…

so many faces, so many voices
so many reasons to give this up.
this goes on and on.”

have you seen her?
the girl in the red dress

follow her down
the girl in the red dress

only if you dare
to question it all

because, the things that you think you know --
they're not at all the same in her world.

the girl in the red dress,
she'll draw you into the greens

she’ll draw you in —
to the dead of the woods

the girl in the red dress,
she's a dream, she's a nightmare

have you seen her?
the girl in the red dress
