But then when he began to get to know the girl he realize the girl despite looking great and well off is somewhat hurt and like maybe she lost a lover before and the next man she fells in love with mistreats her so she lost the will to love or lets say afraid to love again despite her wanting affection.
And it seems this man wants to be with her but he is rejected by the girl so I think that is the part "You are letting your life sip away"
Like the girl is wasting her life.
This sums up my current romantic situation quite well
Maybe we can come up with some dark romantic pickup lines from DT lyrics.
"I will cross the bridges in the sky just so I can walk beside you"
"Love just don't stare"
"I guess am I just a dreamer as I await to sleep if so I shall be the sleeper and you are my miracle"
"There is a new love that born for each one that has died"
------------------------------------------------------------------
Or we can use DT lyrics as part of a dark Romantic play or Movie.
Plot: A man a struggling Musician long suffering from depression and pondering on the meaning of his life and brooding about his past decisions meats a woman a painter (Sets the tone for the first verse of the Bigger Picture "I can see the painting come alive" )
so the man falls in love with this woman and some how finds the will to live and fix himself but little did he know that the woman her self is thorn from within having been a survivor of an abusive relationship she also somehow finds comfort to know that the Man manages to turn around his life, but despite having an obvious chemistry the woman fights her own feelings fearing that falling in love with this man would just end in despair again.
==================================================================
So here could be an example of a scene in that play.
In this setting the man is in a corner of a time-worn dockside inn, tells his story of despair to the bartender.
Man:If you want to know what is going on in my mind.. Or you will see is a barren wasteland..
Wellcome to the wasteland where you will find ashes nothing but ashes?
Bartender :Ashes?
Man:"Yes the ashes are from all my dreams that have burned up!
Bartender: Well you know there is always hope don't give up on your career you have the gift of music.
Man:Hope you say? Ah that hope will just be merely like drop of water in this desert inside my head!
As the man left the pub a bit drunk on his pickup truck he wildly swerves down the road where he almost hit a woman on the side of the road trying to change a flat tire he gets off the pickup to offer help he recognised the girl
who frequents a coffee shop and now he gets more chance to open up to the girl.
And so the man started to tell his story as the woman listens openly!
The woman tries to discourage any more romantic bond between them to progress but the man so infatuated and captivated exclaims "You filled me with hope"
Woman:Ha hope thats some thing I no long believe in
Man: I once thought the same hope is like a drop of water trying to quench an arid land but you can turn a drop of water into an Ocean"
