I cannot seem to sleep... here's a first run of some lyrics I wrote about 15 hours ago:
"Broken Mirror"
Seven long years... Thought it was to end a year ago Did you break a mirror? One I didn't know?
It crashed on our wedding day... Eight long years ago... I broke the mirror And we've seen the bad luck grow
No matter how many times... I'd say that I love you You always knew How to hit a nerve No matter how many times... I'd say that I love you The years would go by Things would just get worse... ...more than we could know...
Is love enough? Eight is enough?
Saying goodbye... More than 100 times We never seemed to know... Was there such an obvious divide?
It crashed on our wedding day Was it more than one time? Did you break a mirror? To turn our lemons to limes...
No matter how many times... I'd say that I love you You always knew How to hit a nerve No matter how many times... I'd say that I love you The years would go by And it'd all just get worse... ...more than ever surmised!
More than we thought they could, The nothings would grow! Oh, no, oh...maybe we should... Just give up and let go?!? Until heaven above... Will our fault just grow? I always feel, I just know... So much love... For you, so much love...
So much love... ...replacing bitter memories... ...and to that I'll smile!
Drop the talking heads Drop the talking phones Drop the self-talk nagging you Remember the spark of our love Remember the bond of our love Remember the beauty of love!
It is...It is the end of us? Have we just been waiting for now? Both held on to the idea of us? Waiting for this...this final row? So long my love... So long to love... "Soul mate" must now need new definition! Do we say goodbye? Is our love just not enough?
They say "all you need is love" They say "love is not enough" They say "all you need is love" They say "love is not enough" To keep us bound...
Drop the talking heads Drop the talking phones Drop the self-talk nagging you Remember the spark of our love Remember the bond of our love Remember the beauty of love!
Sickly mortar...building blocks between Competing bacterium hotels... Lips service complaints instead of kisses... The walking dead stave off wedding bells... So long my love... So long to love... "Dis-ease" must now need new definition! Do we say good luck? Is our love just not enough?
They say "all you need is love" They say "love is not enough" They say "all you need is love" They say "love is not enough" To keep us bound...
Drop the talking heads Drop the talking phones Drop the self-talk nagging you Remember the spark of our love Remember the bond of our love Remember the beauty of love!
I'm done with it! I'm done with it! I'm done being done with you! You may be dumb, I may be lame Equally we're both insane!
I'm done with it! I'm done with it! I'm done being done with you! I may be mean, you may be rough We never seem to get enough! ...Of each others psychotic love! Or is love just not enough?

"Broken Mirror"
Seven long years...
Thought it was to end a year ago
Did you break a mirror?
One I didn't know?
It crashed on our wedding day...
Eight long years ago...
I broke the mirror
And we've seen the bad luck grow
No matter how many times...
I'd say that I love you
You always knew
How to hit a nerve
No matter how many times...
I'd say that I love you
The years would go by
Things would just get worse...
...more than we could know...
Is love enough?
Eight is enough?
Saying goodbye...
More than 100 times
We never seemed to know...
Was there such an obvious divide?
It crashed on our wedding day
Was it more than one time?
Did you break a mirror?
To turn our lemons to limes...
No matter how many times...
I'd say that I love you
You always knew
How to hit a nerve
No matter how many times...
I'd say that I love you
The years would go by
And it'd all just get worse...
...more than ever surmised!
More than we thought they could,
The nothings would grow!
Oh, no, oh...maybe we should...
Just give up and let go?!?
Until heaven above...
Will our fault just grow?
I always feel, I just know...
So much love...
For you, so much love...
So much love...
...replacing bitter memories...
...and to that I'll smile!
Eight Is Enough?

Drop the talking heads
Drop the talking phones
Drop the self-talk nagging you
Remember the spark of our love
Remember the bond of our love
Remember the beauty of love!
It is...It is the end of us?
Have we just been waiting for now?
Both held on to the idea of us?
Waiting for this...this final row?
So long my love...
So long to love...
"Soul mate" must now need new
definition!
Do we say goodbye?
Is our love just not enough?
They say "all you need is love"
They say "love is not enough"
They say "all you need is love"
They say "love is not enough"
To keep us bound...
Drop the talking heads
Drop the talking phones
Drop the self-talk nagging you
Remember the spark of our love
Remember the bond of our love
Remember the beauty of love!
Sickly mortar...building blocks
between
Competing bacterium hotels...
Lips service complaints instead
of kisses...
The walking dead stave off
wedding bells...
So long my love...
So long to love...
"Dis-ease" must now need new
definition!
Do we say good luck?
Is our love just not enough?
They say "all you need is love"
They say "love is not enough"
They say "all you need is love"
They say "love is not enough"
To keep us bound...
Drop the talking heads
Drop the talking phones
Drop the self-talk nagging you
Remember the spark of our love
Remember the bond of our love
Remember the beauty of love!
I'm done with it!
I'm done with it!
I'm done being done with you!
You may be dumb, I may be lame
Equally we're both insane!
I'm done with it!
I'm done with it!
I'm done being done with you!
I may be mean, you may be rough
We never seem to get enough!
...Of each others psychotic love!
Or is love just not enough?
I love you...I just don't care!
