Write fast. Write far.


Head in the clouds or eyes at my feet
Fall asleep or fast heartbeat
Running in the wind or running out of time
And you can't make up your mind
No you can't make up your mind

A rock or a hard place
Sink or swim
Life's a game
You lose or win
A rock or a hard place
Sink or swim
Love's a game
You win or lose
Your mind

Blow an eyelash or make a wish
Make it come true or blow a kiss
Say you'll be content and that's just fine
But you can't make up your mind
No you can't make up your mind

A rock or a hard place
Sink or swim
Life's a game
You lose or win
A rock or a hard place
Sink or swim
Love's a game
You win or lose
Your mind

Mind the gap and don't fall in
Sit at the edge and watch it spin
Hold your breath and count to ten
And maybe you can stop being just friends

The author's comments:
As usual with my songs, this is not about anyone or anything in my life, truly. I wrote this Taking Back Sunday style song and it just so happens that most of alt-rock teenager-y music has love as a subject. Normally I don't write love songs much less publish them up here but I liked this one and decided I shouldn't force limits on myself due to others possible misinterpretations or judgments. So yeah. Just FYI. Peace.
