Slow DanceHe was sensible,
She was beautiful,
Neither of them,
Believed in miracles,

But something happened,
As the world span 'round,
And sent fate flying,
Out of their hands.

They ended up,
In each other's arms,
Falling in love,
During a slow, slow dance.
Broken,It doesn’t feel fair that the sun should be shining.
She stands there, the pieces of her heart surrounding her feet, with her eyes so tragic and dry.
She stands on the garden path, and watches his back as he walks away from her, shoulders hunched, tail between his legs.
He stops, he turns, and something inside her breaks.
“Would you just go?!” She cries, picking up the broken pieces of her heart and throwing them at him, with all the strength that rage has leant her.
The sharp shards cut her hands, but the tears have enough sense to stay away.
“Don’t you get it?!” She cries, her voice breaking, “There is nothing for you here anymore! Nothing!!” (Or maybe it was already broken.)
 
He opens his mouth to say something, but doesn’t know what.
Because it’s true, there is nothing for him anymore. There is a girl with hair threaded with fire, and eyes full of rage and something else.
The hardships of a Pencil.You've held me in your hand for many years.
Yes I was there for those pre-exam tears.
And though I think we're friends,
The relationship will have to end,
If you carry on munching,
On my poor rear-end.
Now,
Normally I'm a reasonable sort of fellow.
You know the type - rather pleasant and mellow.
But when you stick me up your nose,
To try and stem the flow,
I'm liable to be a little
Put
Out.
Yes, when you stick me up your snout,
I will cry and scream and shout,
Until, and only when, you pull me out.
Yes Mother, everything's fine.
It's easier to stay silent,
And let the world pass you by,
(You only have to smile and nod -
No more pointless lies.)

You're not playing their foolhardy games,
Won't pretend there's nothing wrong.
You know that the neighbours can hear,
(You've known all along.)

You can starve yourself,
And cut your wrists,
But what it comes down to,
Is a battle of wits.

Oh yes Mother,
Everything's fine!!
(It was just the world,
Passing me by...)
