Olympian

At the front of a dance floor. In front of the booth.
I met a Greek God and here's my proof:
Chiseled by the greatest, he's meant to be the fakest.
But he's more real than stone and stronger than bone.
He's got dark brown hair and ripped golden flesh:
And I think he's ready to take my test...

Hope

And it's only when she's flying that she doesn't feel down,
So the drugs kill her slowly while she's painting the town.
She lets herself go as they ease through her mind,
Leaving the memories and the tears behind.

Thomas

With your inebriated brain and your arrogant heart,
You thought you didn't need me and weren't you smart?

Now you say you that love me, that you need me back,
Do you really expect me to "cut you some slack"?

It's all sugar coated, the things that you say,
But why would I want you, either way?

It's so hard to be brave, it's so hard to be nice,
Was it really worth it for that fleeting tryst?

Now everything's over and we're so far apart,
When all that I wanted was you, from the start.

My tears have ended and there's not much of me left,
But it feels so good to have you off my chest.

Betrayal

You tore my heart into so many pieces,
I never knew I could be so speechless.
But now that I'm so torn apart,
The only sound is this beating heart.

Cheat

How could you hurt me in the one way I would never hurt you?
How could you break that one thing left, the one thing that would lead me to success?
