Clouded By Thoughts

CLOUDED BY THOUGHTS - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I’m clouded by thoughts

We need to talk

There’s something wrong in the machine

I don’t understand

Why we can’t hold the hands

We’re breaking apart and you know what I mean

Every time we make the love it turns into a fight

Just a couple of hearts looking for a place to hide

You’re doing it just to beat her

I’m nothing but some kind of prize

I’m doing it just to spite her

I’m trying to bury her alive

What are we doing for ourselves?

We can’t keep up the scratch and bite

This time we find the answers

This time we take it eye to eye

I’m clouded by dreams

We need to scream

There’s something wrong inside of our way

I don’t give a damn

Why can’t we keep to plan?

It’s crashing all around and nothing is all that we can say

Every time we kiss it lip to lip it turns into a flood

Just a couple of hearts looking to taste each others blood

You’re doing it just to beat her

I’m nothing but some kind of prize

I’m doing it just to spite her

I’m trying to bury her alive

What are we doing for ourselves?

We can’t keep up the scratch and bite

This time we find the answers

This time we take it eye to eye

“Look into my eyes”

Is this what it all comes down to?

You … me …. A shadow?

Is this what we’re going to war for?

What about us?

Who are we entertaining? … Her?

I’m clouded by thoughts

We need to walk

There’s something wrong and it’s not what it may seem

Every time we make the love it turns into a fight

Just a couple of hearts looking for a place to hide

I’m running away so enjoy the ride

You’re doing it just to beat her

I’m nothing but some kind of prize

I’m doing it just to spite her

I’m trying to bury her alive

What are we doing for ourselves?

We can’t keep up the scratch and bite

This time we find the answers

This time we take it eye to eye

You’re doing it just to beat her

I’m nothing but some kind of prize

I’m doing it just to spite her

I’m trying to bury her alive

What are we doing for ourselves?

We can’t keep up the scratch and bite

This time we find the answers

This time we take it eye to eye

We take it eye to eye

Looking in my eyes … goodbye

That Devil In Your Eyes

THAT DEVIL IN YOUR EYES - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Forget your inhibitions

You’re completely insane

Sex is your nutrition

It’s the diet for your brain

You feed off of the power

In which your body’s made

Too many unbelievers

The price they had to pay

You can keep your evil lies

I will walk the line

Just spare me this for just this time

Can’t look you in the face to see it

That devil in your eyes

Feel that hot explosion

The touch you fornicate

Lilith is a bad girl

Heaven is too late

Your soul is there to sour

In this, you can’t describe

Too many instigators

Too many don’t survive

You can keep your evil lies

I will walk the line

Just spare me this for just this time

Can’t look you in the face to see it

That devil in your eyes

Found a sweet intention

You’re so out of control

Sex is your invention

It mandates all your goals

You deal in all the dark streets

To where you hide at night

Addicted to your heartbeat

The war is there to fight

You can keep your evil lies

I will walk the line

Just spare me this for just this time

Can’t look you in the face to see it

That devil in your eyes

By A Thread

BY A THREAD - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Just an after thought in the morning

Will your broken eyes ever heed the warning?

My heart could touch your soul if you would just let it

My head can’t let you go so girl just forget it

And I hang by a thread

Everyday when I let your memory back into me and

I wish I was dead

Then and only then would I forget you

Then and only then would I forget your name

Just an early train of new emotions

Arriving at the station and causing commotion

My heart is cinder so my head just forgets it

My soul can’t pretend but the pain seems to let it

And I hang by a thread

Everyday when I let your memory back into me and

I wish I was dead

Then and only then would I forget you

Then and only then would I forget your name

If I can’t breath the air then I can’t breath you in

This is my despair and you know this

If I can’t burn what doesn’t even exist

Then when will my power of resistance start kicking in?

You’re my dilemma

You are my shame

A scar on the wound of time

You are my enemy

You are to blame

A victim of your own Divine

Why didn’t you save me from all the things that you promised me

That you were going save me from?

And I hang by a thread

Everyday when I let your memory back into me and

I wish I was dead

Then and only then would I forget you

Then and only then would I forget your name

Then an only then would I ever let you

Then and only then would I ever let you back in

Yes I would let you back in

I would let you back in again

And I hang by a thread
