If You'd Comply -- new song

http://chivalryonapostcard.tumblr.com have a listen

When I pass you my heart
It still jumps like
A postal worker
Who just got cut and

When I think of you all
That I can hear is
AM 180
Ringing in my ears

[chorus]
I still owe you
Ray bans, I would love just
One dance
If you'd comply [x2]

I diddle my thumbs and
Pretend 1 is yours, I
I hear your voice
Every time the rain pours

What's happening? I
Still ask myself as
I sit where we sat
Between the book shelves

[Chorus]

When I think of you all
That I can hear is
AM 180
Ringing inside my ears

Executive decision

I have decided I am going to take a break from writing.
Maybe for a long time,
maybe for a short time.
I am incredibly tired of myself and my words,
my ideas and my inspiration.
My goal in life, for a long time, has been to
write something truly beautiful.

I really don't think I'm capable of such a thing.
I don't think I am capable of many things.
Most of all that.
Well, not most of all.
But certainly in the top 3.

I'll write you when I get back.
If I ever do anyways.

Fond but not permanent fair well,

Liv

NEW SONG -- The Earth

you’re like a cosmic collision
shooting through space and arousing my vision
something that I would love to behold as
my own

you’re like a fresh summer solstice
warming the breeze, using earth as your hostess
something that I would love to behold as
my own

[chorus]
you must be the earth
either that or I'm the tiniest girl
anyways
i think you're the best
the only one who puts my heart to
rest

you’re like a towering tree
lending your shade to watch over me
something that I would love to behold as
my own

you’re like a love lullaby
smiling and crying all at the same time
something that I would love to behold as
my own


[chorus x2]

(500)

I watched Mark Webb's (500) days of summer last night.
I don't know what to believe anymore.

I love that feeling.

My connection within

I am a ancient bridge.
Breaking into my purest bricks I finally see my connection within passing.

I am an aging starlet.
Stiff from needles and knives I finally see my connection within fame.

I am rickety ladder.
Wobbly with weight and work I finally see my connection within the sky.

I am a rotting tree.
Decaying, layered with this forests moss I finally see my connection within the earth.

I am a sunken ship.
Lost inside an angry ocean I finally see my connection within the sea.

I am a far away land.
Past the world and all its wonders I finally see my connection within distance.

I am a neutron star.
Collapsing into myself I finally see my connection within darkness.

To fall.

stop it

I don't take,
You never give.

You get yours,
When I get mine.

You love ideas of people,
I love idealism.

Are we even yet?

Deranged

Can you taste me on your tongue
As my senses start to run
My scent becomes my vision
My touch is now what listens

I'll give up the sunshine
If you make it worth my time
The night has strayed and left me lonely
I need your arms to make me homely

Winter's fleeting, winter's fickle
Payed off summer with only nickels
Warm like green tea, soothes my soul
love like yours to fill a hole

so empty
and still so full
irony
stings my veins
empathy
so deranged
where are you?
