Base Over Attic (1/23/2008)

I try to take a break so I can write from the mind
But you consume every thought in every moment of time
These thoughts are potently mine and I’m hoping I’m fine
I just tend to ramble on about what’s flowing inside
Though, I know it’s alright because I feel so alive
These doubts and confusion could never break up the rhyme
I’m just doing these lines while I behave like an addict
Your beauty is the image that can break through the static
And it’s what happens when a guy falls base over attic
Life gets a little bit crazy and these thoughts get erratic
But it’s so automatic for me to see through pollution
To dispell every thought that’s been wrought with confusion
And the solution is for me to speak without the poetics
Maybe I’ll break up the flow, perhaps I’ll trip in the sentence
But every single time my phone rings, I pray that it’s you
It’s kind of pathetic, but what I’m saying is true
Cause I’m so crazy for you, look what you made me go do
Writing down these cliches, I’ll even say “Baby” for you
The old me hates that it’s true, but the new man is better
I can even stay strong when there’s doubts of together
And every ounce of this letter, every vowel and noun
These are twenty four lines full of a truth to resound
Cause if there’s truth to be found, it’s that you’ve taken my heart
And filled it with a love that can’t be taken apart

Notes: I’ve almost felt a little guilty writing only about the ups and down involving love and such, lately. However, I realized that this is what my life is about right now and there’s no shame in it, so, I just thought I’d write about it again and be a little bit cheesy with it. What can I say? She does that to me.
