i wanted to take you home last night
but i'd been waiting a while
for you to say it'd be alright
but nothing's changing your mind
i want to call you up tonight
because we've been wasting our time
we could hold hands, we could make out
or just be cool because there's no one around
just don't let go of everything we know...

the object of my desire

trapped beneath the weight of days
waiting just to say i know
that we should go our separate ways
and hope to meet again someday, somehow
wrapped up in this dream of lies
if i can open up my eyes, i'd know
that i'm the only one to blame
and now my heart won't be the same
without your love
i can't be myself
when you're around
it's something new
i don't know myself
all at the cost of loving you
if i could say the words i feel
deep in my heart
and if you feel the same way
i won't be afraid anymore

hey little darling girl, you're in my dreams again
because i just can't help this feeling to pretend.
i don't know how to get by
without your kiss and that look in your eye
and i can't feel your breath when i go to sleep at night.
my little darling girl, you're in my dreams again,
but i don't like the feeling of having to pretend
because i know that there is no time
to say all the things that are on your mind.
there's just too many years to make up between the lines.
i am not enough to be the one that you could love.
so i'll just give up and let you be the one
that i keep dreaming of.
take my hand, don't let it go---
i never wanted any more than this.

open your eyes,
can you see me now?
you’re lost in the crowd,
drowning you so loud.
crucify all you are to me
in the suicide of your heart.
walking alone,
are you happy now?
smiles and your charm
can’t save you this time.
take all of your breaths
in one last cry,
and plead for the shame
and guilt of your life.
open up, let it in, take it all–
what your heart can’t give.
let it out, let it go, wash away
what you can’t forget.
am i losing out on a love with you?

tell me one more time,
what is it on your mind?
but it's not easy for me,
i am barely listening
to your words that skew
the way i feel for you.
i bet it's not easy
fighting off the boys who can't see
that you're so beautiful,
that you're so wonderful.
the way you go, don't run away
from all the secrets i can't stand.
the way you speak goes to my head,
can't i be the one instead?
it's been a long, long time
since i first stepped in line
to be the one who could do
anything you want me to.
so just forget the child
who day after day and a while
let them get the best of you
and panicked from the boys who can't see
that you're so beautiful,
that you're so wonderful.

just another delusion

lost in the wake of the death of your precious smile,
i can't shake the thought that i've let myself down.
i know i'm to blame for whatever this misery is,
troubled and shamed that it's all in my head.
i want it all, but your heart won't give.
just say the word and i'll go on.
i know you deserve something more,
all you wish for,
and what i will never be.
so why can't i stop fooling myself over you?

elocine Hampton, VA
Elocine is a one-man band that began in 1995 as nothing but a way to kill time during the insipid days of high school. Sole member, Nelson Ciron, was also the drummer for the South Jersey/Philly-area indie rock band, Apple of Discord, from 1995 to 2003. After moving to southeastern Virginia in late 2003, Ciron decided to focus more of his creative energy on Elocine. ... more
