January
i always knew summer was fleeting
but never that winter suffered the same fate
is there a season that doesn't change?
because this love seems to be following

the same patterns
the same disappointments

i always knew time was passing
but not that it carried any true weight
is there a second that doesn't fade?
because this life seems to be following

the same patterns
the same disappointments

it may be a new year but that just means
new ways to fail myself and relive memories
because i live each day like it's my last
and still find a way to have regrets
(and i have them)
    top

Marble Hornets
can someone please jog my memory?
i'm not sure if it's the beer talking or just me
but i'm 23 and still a-fucking-lone
and i'm paranoid of talking on the phone

all my best friends are obsessed with
marble hornets and porn star tits
they've got one thing in common
they're fake as fucking shit
and i'm over it

i promised myself i wouldnt sing
about that girl that fucked me then left
but i find it funny how i always end up letting myself down
but it's reassurance that i'm still human

all my best friends are obsessed with
smoking weed and getting pussy
so i'm always sitting by myself
why do i put up with this shit?
well i'm over it

roses are red
violets are blue
my only regret
was loving you

all my best friends are fucking gone
or three states away
so i'm always writing songs about being alone
but i'm over it

no, i'm not
    top

If Sorry Meant Anything You'd Still Be Here
i'm sorry that I have emotions that conflict with yours
but your eyes aren't the same green that they were when you were sixteen
and my skin settles on my sheets without friction to provide heat
so won't you reconsider so we don't have to spend this winter alone?
    top

Phone Calls From Prague
your finger tips left imprints on my skin
from summer nights when you were scared
cause my voice was low
and we didn't stay home like we used to
the only thing keeping you from leaving was my heartbeat matched your breathing
but when you left for europe that May it changed
you returned with a new light to your face
i remember the last thing you said
it wasn't goodbye
but that's what i heard
and that's what you meant
    top

Remember That One Time We Got Lost Using Google Maps?
I think too much about life and of us
that I should be locked up
mostly of road trips and you leaving me breathless
and becoming restless at night
and I'm so bad with words
not to mention my memory
but if you'll believe in me
we'll go places you won't believe together

this winters been warm with you in my arms
reading poetry to help me sleep
and I teach you about physics and biochemistry
and somehow that stills turns you on
I pinched my cheeks to make sure
that I wasn't dreaming
and your eyes were still staring at me
pulling me relentlessly into forever
    top

Christmas Eve
It's cold tonight without snow on the ground.
Hope is given tonight to people without it.
Tears aren't shed tonight now that these lights are shining bright.
Don't let go tonight; don't let go of my hand tonight.

Won't you hold me now and I'll kiss your cheek.
We'll sing Christmas songs just one more time.
On Christmas eve we'll watch Santa come and pretend we're asleep.

Huggles and kisses are what we've all been missing.
Honey put on some hot chocolate. We're pulling an all nighter.
Here's your present dear and I wrapped it tight.
I tied a little shiny red bow on the top.

Won't you hold me now and I'll kiss your cheek.
We'll sing Christmas songs just one more time.
On Christmas eve we'll watch Santa come and pretend we're asleep.

What is that? Who could it be?
How did all these presents get under the tree?
I love you dear and I've been a good boy.
So lets go back to sleep.

Won't you hold me now and I'll kiss your cheek.
We'll sing Christmas songs just one more time.
On Christmas eve we'll watch Santa come and pretend we're asleep.

Timmy's Christmas Song
I'll be coming to see you for Christmas.
It's all I need. You're all I need.
I hope you know you're my everything.
I'll be coming home for Christmas.
It's about time that I'm in your arms.
I hope you know I'll never leave you alone.

Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.
Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.

The best day of my life is when you came into my life.
And I wish you'd be my wife for Christmas.
The best day of my life is when you came into my life.
And I wish you'd be my wife for Christmas.

Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.
Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.

Darling, darling can't you see I'm the only one you'll ever need to hold you?
And to love you.
Honey, honey can't you see you're better than Chocolate ice cream?
Under a mistletoe I'll let you know how I feel.

I'll be coming to see you for Christmas.
It's all I need you're all I need.
I hope you know you're my everything.
I'll be coming home for Christmas.
It's about time that I'm in your arms.
I hope you know I'll never leave you alone.

Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.
(The best day of my life is when you came into my life.
And I wish you'd be my wife for Christmas.)
Just know I love you dear.
And I'll riding a reindeer right into your front yard.
I'll never be this far away again.

I've Got A Christmas Tree In Every Room
I've got a Christmas tree in every room cause Christmas time is near. 
Lights spun all around it and a widdle hanging dear.
I've got a Christmas tree in my living room, shaking it's behind.
Ornaments are hanging high and a train is strolling by.

I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.

I've got a Christmas tree in my room I'm looking at it right now.
There's no present under it but my cat is going meow.
I've got a Christmas tree in my bathroom, it covers up the smell.
It helps me sing in the shower cause there's a ringing bell.

I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.

I've got a Christmas tree in my parents room and it keeps them up at night.
A Christmas tree in both my yards and their lights are shining bright.
Geez, I love my Christmas trees.
Praise the Lord above for giving us this Christmas time for us to share the love.

I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room.
I've got a Christmas tree in every room, oh.

Merry Christmas
You should know that wherever you go
I'll be with you on Christmas
And though you're far you're in my heart
And I have our star on Christmas
It's not about the gifts you get or even the ones you give
Cause none of them could ever compare to the love beneath my skin

You should know that whoever you hold
I'll miss you most on Christmas
And though we may have grown apart
You still own my heart on Christmas
It's not about mistakes we've made especially the ones you can't take back
Cause when it snows and Christmas lights glow the love will show again

So Merry Christmas baby
I'm not sure if you can hear me
But if by chance you can
You never left my head
    top

White Christmas
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree-tops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh-bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
And may all your Christmases be white
    top

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
Let your heart be light.
Next year all our troubles will be out of sight.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
Make the Yule-tide gay.
From now on our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in golden days,
Happy olden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us,
Will be near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together,
If the fates allow.
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

Once again as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yours.
Faithful friends who are dear to us,
Gather near to us once more.

Someday soon we all will be together,
If the fates allow.
Until then we'll have to battle through somehow.
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

O Little Town of Bethlehem
O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie.
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all these years are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch on wondering love.
Oh morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth.
And praises sing to God our King,
And peace to men on earth.

How silently, how silently, this wondrous gift was given.
Cause God imparts in human hearts the blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming but in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him still the dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem descend to us, we pray;
Cast down our sin and enter in, be born to us this day.
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel.
    top

Away In A Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head.
The stars in the sky, looking down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.

The cattle a-lowing, the baby awakes;
But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.
I love thee, Lord Jesus, Look down from the sky,
And stay by my bedside, 'till morning is nigh.

Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay,
Close by me forever and love me I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.
    top

Silent Night
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child 
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace. 

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from Heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ the Savior is born; Christ the Savior is born. 

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light.
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
with the dawn of Redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth; Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

Owen Wilson
farewell to sleepless nights
farewell to past loves
farewell to Hemingway and poems he wrote when we was giving up on life
farewell to tired eyes
farewell to cold skin
farewell to Domestica and No Good For No One Now

cause i found 'The Ghost of What Should've Been' in your smile
and i found my summer in winter in your breath
it sings me to sleep at night

farewell to speechless conversations
farewell to just wasting space
farewell to lying to myself about being ok
farewell to questioning love
farewell to blaming everyone
farewell to apathy and regret

yeah i know we're both gonna be alright this time
cause i found my summer in winter in your breath
it sings me to sleep at night

Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) Building
cats got your tongue huh?
keeping your eyes low to the ground
you say that you're afraid of missing something
but i know you're lying to yourself
you say i'll let everything just fall in place
but you and i both know it doesn't work that way
maybe one day you'll stop trying to be someone you're not 
    top

French Braid
the best thing about the morning is waking up thinking about you
nothing jump starts my heart quite like you do
dreams could never imitate this reality
so i try not to sleep too often anymore
but just so you know when you're too busy to sing me to sleep
i fall asleep listening to braid or joy division
and wonder when the hell i'll figure out teleportation
    top

This Town Needs Water Guns
i only wish i could tell the future
then i wouldn't be where i am now
but the summer sun set so quickly
now a fierce snow claws at my window
i understand that i must move on and survive somehow
but nothing could make this easier
if i could only ask you one last question this would be it: 
what happened that made you so uninterested?
    top

How's The Weather
i hate how our conversations are always 
"hey, how is the weather"
"well, it could be better"
i hate how i won't say anything when i obviously want to
so i just smile at you and keep my eyes to the ground
i've seen better days on a soap operas we used to watch daily
but now i am lucky if you even sit by me

i've learned from experience that love can't last forever
but please don't let it end like this 
(just so you know) this silence is why i can't sleep

A Letter
i know that i've grown up
and you'll always remember me at two years old
slurring my speech and clinging to your feet
but you've given me my favorite memories
i know this distance tears us apart
old photographs and phones calls aren't enough

so i want you to know
you've always be there to help me conquer the coldest winters
and i love you for that
    top

It Could've Been Different
it's been so long that i can't even remember the last time we spoke
or the last thing we did together
best friends forever - a promise we couldn't keep
going our separate ways
i'll probably never see you again

if i was magician i'll put you out of my hat 
we'd raise hell on wycliffe street
like we did when we were 15
now 22 with a 9 to 5 job 
how did we let ourselves grow up?

i've been thinking of you as of late
where have you been?
and who have you loved?
i hope for your sake you're not as fucked as I am
last time i was in houston
i stood at the place where we all grew up
it was one of the only times i've appreciated life

i've been thinking of you as of late
where have you been?
and who have you loved?
i hope for your sake you're not as fucked as I am
    top

There's No Such Thing As Destiny
you and me are human beings
with different intentions
different emotions
so why am i surprised when you confess to me
that you're so sorry but it's not meant to be
and you ask me can we just be friends?
and i smile sarcastically
and whisper softly i'm sorry but it's not meant to be
i know that everything might not work out
nothing's ever meant to be
and that's what really scares me

I Guess Everything Reminds You of Something
the smell before the rain
always makes me so nostalgic
for summers back in texas
and i wonder how my dog who ran away is doing now
i hope he thinks about me each time he chews a shoelace
every time i see a john wayne movie
i'm thankful for my dad and how he raised me
and i honestly believe that i'm the same as i was when i was fourteen
i still worry about things that really don't matter
i found the meaning of life in the fortune cookie
it said stop asking how and why to live life and just do it
i guess nike was right
but i've never been one to take advice
i guess everything reminds you of something

Are You Afraid Of The Dark?
there are no stars in this town
light pollution drowns them out
you have to go out to the country
but that can get so lonely
so i usually stay inside
with closed blinds late at night
read some bukowski or hemingway
stare the ceiling and just drift away
are you afraid of the dark?
because i am
are you afraid to die?
alone, yes

Why Do We Always Have To Resort To Pillows and Natalie Portman?  
summer is ending but unlike usual i don't feel empty
i'm noticing beauty in small things
like a 50 cent ring or a simple good morning
in every way i feel lucky and it's all because of you
i'm longing for michigan or new york
so i can tell you three simple words face to face
and we don't have to fight off sleep
until then i guess we can live on pillows and natalie portman
and phone calls that last until 7 a.m.

A Clean, Well-Lighted Place 
old man times are changing so fast
your past loves are far gone
and your thoughts on life have slowed down
and the bottle is all that you've got now
but i can see myself in those bloodshot eyes
and you were right we all need to find our own ways to sleep at night

Don't Ever Listen To Shakespeare
life is a constant battle with myself
i'm fighting these memories
and how i am losing
but i won't get back all these wasted nights
and i am now learning everyone lied
time isn't medicine no it's a poison
and it'll always run through my veins
so what can i do?
and how can i make it through?
when the poets were confused
because i can't forget you
i'm taking the side roads because i know that you do
take walks at 3 a.m. hoping to find you
smoking a cigarette, reflecting on how your day went
but it hasn't work just yet and i'm scared
of what i would say if it actually did
so lately i stay inside passing time, wasting life
so what should i do?
how the fuck can i make it through?
tim, i took your advice, i stayed home
and i still feel alone
and the worst thing is i know that you're happy without me
i know how that makes me seem
and maybe that's why you left me
and maybe that's why i hate me
    top

A Way I'll Never Be
winter's creeping up on me
either summer was shorter or global warming
i look around my room and all i see is an unmade bed
misplaced records and untied tennis shoes
a half burned photograph of you
of course i couldn't see it through
is this what i've got to show for all my years on this earth?
cause if so no wonder i question my worth
i wonder if i'll ever be truly happy
i know only time can say
but honesty it doesn't look that way

The End of Something
it was a long drive 
you had begged me to stay
but i had changed my mind
i couldn't comfort you anymore
it was the last time we spoke
you'd asked me to read you Hemingway
then asked what it meant
i said "love, it wasn't fun any more."
and then we realized it was about us
and no more words came out of our mouths

sometimes its better to let go of the nights you can never get back
most times its best to say no to a need to reinvent the past 
and now i know the heart doesn't need it only wants love

it only needs air

Still Not An Emo (Big Punisher - Still Not A Player)
I don't wanna be an emo no more.
(I'm not an emo I just cry a lot.)
I just sit in corners to attract them hoes.
(Free hugs, free hugs.)
I don't wanna be an emo no more.
(I'm not an emo I just cry a lot.)
But you bitches know this shit is just for show.
So who's down to cry tonight?

Hey yo, I'm still not an emo but you still a hater.
I put a knife to my wrist, ha! See you later, I'm gone.
Brand New keeps, my hopes weak
Every week, hear me weap, my wrist bleeds
Into the streets with a option to cry
I write a note to my friends; 'sorry thugs, goodbye'
I know it's sad but yo I gots to go.
All these bitches in the world got me feeling real low.
All these bitches in the world yo they gots to be hoes.
All these bitches in the world just keep takin' my dough.
So I take this sharp blade, line it up with my veins.
Bite my lips really hard so I can numb the pain.
Don't mind when my eyes leak,
Mind your own fucking biz when my wrist bleeds.
Don't tell me you fucking love me.
I got this great porn on my 'pute screen.

I don't wanna be an emo no more.
(I'm not an emo I just cry a lot)
I just sit in corners to attract them hoes.
(For free hugs, free hugs)
I don't wanna be an emo no more.
(I'm not an emo I just cry a lot)
But you bitches know this shit is just for show.
So who's down to cry tonight?

You think I'm done? Nig, I haven't begun.
I don't discriminate. I'll off myself to this song.
Cause obviously I want to kill myself when I listen to Dashboard and nothing else.
But let me say to you tiny bitches kissin' broke ass bitches in a small ass kitchen
With a broken down cadillac thinking you all that
I got my Grand Am and the ladies say
"Dayum, can I roll in that shit with you?"
Naw, I already got five damn hoes in front of you.
So let me just say that last of all all the true players aren't emo haters at all.
They're too busy getting down in the club;
They're too busy getting them some love.
So lets follow these niggas some mo'
In the words of Lennon just let that shit be, yo.

I watch this sunset, it's taking over me.
I think I'm gonna cry because of it's beauty
So with closed eyes I let my tears get thickers
Then the bitch is like "what the fuck is up with you nigga?"
I watch this full moon, it's taking over me.
I think I'm gonna cry because of it's beauty
But I'm not emo so I hold that shit back
Throw the bitch on her back she says "don't stop, get it get it"

I don't wanna be an emo no more.
It's not my fault these jeans are tighter than your mom.
I don't wanna be an emo no more.
Rap just sounds better on acoustic guitar.
So who's down to cry tonight?

Not emo, but indie.

Not emo, but indie.
You niggas know you lurve me.
Not emo, but indie.
Shit, this white kid just got me wet.
Not emo, but indie.
But not the Indy 500 fuck that shit
And not Indiana Jones either.

Peace.

Paper Universe
I want to hide away.
I don't want to face the rising sun.
I don't believe in fate.
But I do believe I can't breathe without you.

I'll make a paper universe for me and you.
So we don't have to deal with this real life or being used.
And if you leave I'll set it on fire and watch it burn.
And close my eyes so I'll always remember how I let this go.
How could I let this go?

I want to hide my face.
But I want to have yours all around me.
I don't believe it's fate.
But I do believe I've made my mind up.

I'll make a paper universe for me and you.
So we don't have to deal with this real life or being used.
And if you want I'll light it on fire and watch it burn.
And close my eyes so I'll always remember how you let this go.
How did you let this go?

I'll close my eyes and hold on tight to a dream.
I'll close my eyes and hold on tight to our dream.
I'll close my eyes and hold on tight to this dream.

I'll make a paper universe for me and you.
So we don't have to deal with this real life or being used.
And when you left I set it on fire and watched it burn.
And closed my eyes so I'll always remember how you let this go.
But how can I let this go?

Bikes
It's Monday and I don't want to wake up.
Then I think of your face,
And I'm suddenly standing up.

And I just wanna ride bikes with you.
And I just wanna ride bikes with you
On a sunny day;
On a clear highway.

It's always those little things you do,
That pull me through this bullshit life.
And the little things you say,
That define my everydays.
And if I were to write a novel of our life,
No one would buy it but I'd still read it every night.

And I just wanna ride bikes with you.
And I just wanna ride bikes with you.
On a rainy day;
On the park track-lanes.
On a cloudy night;
Counting car headlights.
On a country road;
The stars lighting up our sky.

Natural Selection
I evolved for you.
And I adapted to your every need.
Every gene expressed by me functions just to make your life a dream.

I'd breathe for you if I could.
Make your heart beat feel good.
Make the days not so long.
Prove our love is still strong.

Natural selection chose our bodies and mind with perfection.
No intelligent design.
But with a grace not even God could define.

I'd breathe for you if I could.
Make your heart beat feel good.
Make the days not so long.
Prove our love is still strong.

I'd breathe for you if I could.
Make your heart beat feel good.
Make the days not feel long.
Prove that love will always be strong.

How Memory Works
5 A.M.
Eyes wide open again.
And the moon is looking at me like a dog I haven't fed in weeks.
My mind keeps playing tricks on me.
It thinks you're there then I reach out my hand and get air.

Don't you fucking let go.
I still need you so close.
Don't you fucking stop talking me to sleep.
It helps me dream.

Hey, I know it's been awhile.
But can I please ask you something?
Why don't you take one fucking second out of your life to tell why you're still keeping this up.
When you tell me you feel so empty.
I don't even have anything to feel empty anymore.

Don't you fucking let go.
I still need you so close.
Don't you fucking stop talking me to sleep;
Reviving my dreams.

Can I please tell you a secret?
Last night I had a dream.
We were sitting in your parking lot
You looked and said to me:
"I'm so fucking sorry. 
I take back all this shit I did to you over the years.
But right now all I want to do is take your hand and run away;
Take the fucking fastest plane to France.
So if you could please forgive me and look into my eyes 
And tell me you still fucking love me..."
And then I woke up to my sheets covered in ice.
But I could swear you were the moonlight in my eyes.

Europa
We should fly straight the moon,
But one that orbits Jupiter.
There we'll see some falling stars,
And other lights from afar.
And if I whisper I love you
And you can't hear because there's vacuum
Know it's said and really meant
Before I wake up from this dream.

Boats and Birds
Lyrics and music written by "Gregory And The Hawk"

If you be my star, I'll be your sky.
You can hide underneath me and come out at night,
When I turn jet black and you show off your light.
I live to let you shine.
I live to let you shine.

But you can skyrocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy,
Far from here where there's more room to fly.
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by.

If you'll be my boat, I'll be your sea.
A depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity.
Ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze.
I live to make you free.
I live to make you free.

But you can set sail to the west if you want to.
And past the horizon till I can't even see you.
Far from here where the beaches are wide.
Just leave me your wake to remember you by.

If you be my star, I'll be your sky.
You can hide underneath me and come out at night,
When I turn jet black and you show off your light.
I live to let you shine.
I live to let you shine.

But you can skyrocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy,
Far from here with more room to fly.
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by.
Stardust to remember you by.

In Dreams (In Nightmares)
Take baby steps towards me
With your hands stretched out reaching,
But never get to my chest.
You confess you've been hiding what you feel.
But I noticed through your speech patterns,
The lack of calls and not staying home
That you've been falling out of love slowly with me.

And this is how it goes in nightmares.
I keep running to you but you're never there.
So I sit and toss myself into the ocean to
Remember dancing to the glow of your eyes and the moon.

And take baby steps towards me
With my eyes closed tight reaching,
But never get to my chest.
You confess that I am not what you desire.
But you noticed through my speech patterns
The late night calls and crying sighs
That I'm still in love

With you
But I always will take care of you.

Cold Sheets
Under these cold sheets finding energy to breathe,
Counting each second that passes.
It's already morning.
I'm seeing the sunlight through tight eyes with soft sighs.

Hide me from this world.
I don't belong anymore.
And save me from these mornings.

Under these cold sheets,
Needing nothing but a breath to warm me.
And my sleep patterns change when you don't call,
Or when you won't say anything at all.

Hide me from this world.
I don't belong anymore.
And save me from these mornings.
Throw me off the face of this Earth.
I don't wanna breathe anymore.
Or save me from cold sheets and morning.

Sleep Patterns
I never thought you could watch time until now.
I never thought you'd feel brain cells die until now.
But you are a waste of my time and memory.
So don't think for a second I'd waste either of those on you.

People change. So get the fuck over it.
Love fades or was never there, so realize it.
Or you'll be unhappy like I was sinking into that bed with you.
It's tough that you only live once but that's more reason to.

Don't make an excuse this time.
You did this to yourself.
You did this to yourself.
You do this to yourself.

You tell me that your sleep patterns change every night.
Don't even try to fucking blame me for that.
Because I only ever did or do what's best for me but not for you.
You can call me selfish but I call it logic.

So fucking stop making me say things I don't mean.
I'll still smoke my cigarettes. I'd say I love you if I meant it.
I'm sorry that I don't need you every night anymore.
But I promise it'll be the same for you over time.

Don't make an excuse this time.
You did this to yourself.
You did this to yourself.
You do this to yourself.

Go write your fucking songs about me.
Go fucking cry because you miss me.

I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't need you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't miss you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't love you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I can sleep without you.

I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't need you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't miss you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I don't love you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I can sleep without you.
[You did this to yourself. You do this to yourself.]

I'm sorry that it's the truth I'll always need you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth I'll always miss you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth I'll always love you.
I'm sorry that it's the truth that I can't sleep without you.
[I did this to myself. I do this to myself.]

Daffodils
I put a daffodil into your hair
And you smiled so soft in the gleaming sun
But you took it out when I turned away

I still try to imagine your face as it was
Only two years ago when our love wasn't these songs.

And I want to paint the past into my present brain
With the brushes you used to construct those beautiful things

And sometimes I'm still in reverie when
I think about how I used to be able to sleep.

And I reconstruct the laws of gravity,
So I hold my breath for three whole years.

Finding Saturn
You're beautiful in every way imaginable. 
You're perfect in every way, so indescribable.
And it would take life to even scratch of the surface of how much I love you with words.
You're a mystery to this universe and it amazes me.
And if you want we could find Saturn through our 15 dollar telescope.
And it would make my life if I could die next to you
And fade away to the outline of your face.
Princess, when you fall asleep please have the sweetest dreams.
(Even if they're not of me)
And darling, when I call your name please come to me.
(So we can fall asleep)

I'll just sing low.
I'll just sing low so you don't hear me.
I'll just sing low so you don't need me.
I'll just sing low so you don't hear me.
I'll just sing low so you don't miss me.

Scarves & Sweaters
It's been a cold winter.
But you've been here to warm my skin and bones.
Your scarves & your sweaters wrap around my cheeks when I hold you close.

There's summer in your eyes.
And there's spring in your voice, angel.

I remember seeing Copeland,
Replacing all the words with your name.
I remember seeing Owen,
And driving back in the dark, cold rain at 3 a.m.
(But do you?)

There's summer in your eyes.
And there's spring in your voice, angel.

There was summer in your eyes.
And spring in your voice, angel.
There was fall in your sighs.
And nothing else more beautiful than you.

But how's winters going to be this year without you here to warm me?

June
I've got a lot of things stuck in my head.
I've got a list of words that I haven't said,
And it's a mix of I love you and I hate yous.
There's been a lot of nights when I haven't slept.
There's been so many nights where I've cried myself to sleep,
Without the hope of any dreams; just nightmares or nothing

June please come back soon.
I need the warmth of the full moon

But don't you know that you save my life
With every time that you blink your eyes?
And all I want is to do is ride hot-air balloons
Or a bi-plane to get to you.

June please come back soon.
I need the warmth of the full moon

Why do you talk to me when you're too tired
To say that you're still in love with me?
And don't tell me how without me there you're happy
Or there's nothing else for me to breath for.

And don't you know that you save my life
With every time that you blink your eyes?
And all I want is to do is ride hot-air balloons
Or a bi-plane to get to you.

Lets fly our kite to the edge of the sky.
Pretend we're kids in love again.
Pretend that life is going to be ok when we know that it's not.

And I don't want to say that it's the truth.
But what else can I say without you here, June?

Forehead Kisses
I can calculate the time that I will arrive at your doorstep around 2 a.m.
And you'll tell me before I leave,
"Please stay safe and sound."
And I'll say "ok"
But whether I really want it that way is another story...

I want to give you the world,
But I can't wrap my arms around it.
I want to give you the moon,
But I can't stretch my arms to grab it.

And when I get there I can taste the cigarettes on your lips.
I start to say something but then don't bother with it.
And then you'll tell me before I go,
"Don't leave you should stay so we can both fall asleep tonight."
Yeah, we can both fall asleep tonight?

I want to give you the world,
But I can't wrap my arms around it.
I want to give you the moon,
But I can't stretch my arms to grab it.
No, I want to give you everything,
But I can't possibly so why do I even dream of it?
(Even dream of us...)

But at least I can give you forehead kisses when you need them.

Sun
In a past life we must have been the first two particles
That collided and threw up the Big Bang
And eventually by gravity formed the entire world with entropy
For the soul purpose of me staring into your eyes
And I know that sounds crazy,
But it's only theory that I'll accept.

And I, I thought I was your sun.
And I, I thought you were my moon.
But I guess that was a joke on me.
The universe is ripping itself in two,
And it's all because of you.

I was standing on the roof of this building and staring into the sun.
So I would understand what's so fucking better at keeping you warm.
Cause I remember things that I once thought were dreams
But they were reality; like your beauty.

And I, I thought I was your sun.
And I, I thought you were my moon.
But I guess it was all just a joke on me.
The universe is ripping itself in two,
And it's all because of you.

I'll just sing it low so you don't know.
I'll just sing it low so you don't know that it's the truth.

And I, I thought I was your sun.
And I, I thought you were my moon.
I fucking guess it was all just a joke on me.
And the universe is ripping itself in two,
And it's all because of you.

The Flight of the Red Balloon
Little red balloon:
You probably think that no one knows
Just what you thought of
When she let go of you that Wednesday evening
When the storms were gathering

I wanna let you know that we're all toys in our own way
Some just don't know it yet
But I definately know how you fucking felt
When the tension on your string was relieved
And you were left to drift off unwillingly into the sky

But not the stars
And not to the moon
Into the cackling storm that sat mocking you
For being so, so fucking breakable; so fucking mortal

Little red balloon:
I still believe in you and what you were made for
To make someone smile

So here's the secret
I thought I'd keep it
But I'd rather spill my voice into these sound waves
That little red balloon was me
And the girl that let go was you two months ago.

I'll just it sing low so you won't know.

And in time we all drift away.

Goodbye Space
Goodbye space and goodbye time.
I won't need you where I'm going.
Far beyond the glow of the brightest shining star.
I won't need light where I'm going.

And Moon these songs are only for you,
From a Sun running dry on helium without you.

Goodbye day and goodbye night.
I won't need you where I'm going.
Far beyond the pull of gravitys plight.
I won't need it where I'm going.

And Moon this breath is only for you,
From a Sun running dry on heat without you.
Remember I'm the Sun and you're the Moon in this one.

I'll sing low.
I'll sing low so you don't hear me.
I'll sing low so you don't need me.
I'll sing low so you don't hear me.
I'll sing low so you don't miss me.

So goodbye space and goodbye Moon,
I won't need you where I'm going.

Owls
In the forest morning light shines down
On everything and illuminates the whole world
All the shade fades away like all the sad faces
And lightly brushes on the top of your eyelids
Drops of rain dissipate as the sun rise
Peaks above the horizon through the calm haze
You are the moon hanging over me gently
Shining down cause you know that you are everything to me

Lets stay huddled in this tree together
Lets stay warm on these branches forever
And we'll always know the way
We'll know love is real

And it's not a dream though it feels just like a daydream
Every time you turn your head to catch a glance of me
Hearing my heart flutter like dragonfly wings
Knowing that the moon will be our night time release
No, it's not a dream though it feels just like a daydream
Every time you turn your head to catch a glimpse of me
Hearing my heart flutter like dragonfly wings
Knowing that the moon will be our night time release

Lets stay huddled in this tree together
Lets stay warm on these branches forever
And we'll always know the way
We'll know love is real

So we'll stayed perched here against the oak tree
With moon light radiating through the tired leaves
And we'll speak softly to each other in a way that makes the stars shine brighter
And shine through the night, the fog, the rain, the heat; the snow, the thunder bolt that cracks the sky in two
And a tear falls down your cheek and at that moment time stands still
You take my lonely hand and I close my eyes so tight and hope for love

And I'm here because of you:
My sweetest Star
My glowing Moon
My shining Sun
My perfect Breeze
My only Cloud
My little Owl
Hold through the night the only light
That beams from your eyes and keeps me alive
I hope you know the calm you'd bring me with just your heart beat
And your breath singing me to sleep
And I'm here because of you
And I have found what I've been searching for
Because now I know what the universe was created for:
Just to hold our love
Just to hold our love

Sparks Fly Up
Think of the sweetest thing you've ever thought:
You're better than that
You're better than that
I know that Polaroids and piano chords are two your favorite things
And I know that we could lay in bed all day dreaming of things
Like a future and what it will bring

And I feel like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up

And out of my heart and into the sky
To light up the night so we can dance and breathe
And I know, I know that this could never change
Cause I try my best to give you my all

And I feel like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up
And I feel just like I'm falling in love again
Every time that I see you sparks fly up

So I just want you to know I will never let you go

Wasting Away
When you come home from a long day
I'll be waiting here for you
And if you're lonely and you need me to stay
You know I'd love to

And I don't care if you're too tired
To lift your mouth to say those things
That you want to say but I know you think
So lets waste this night away together

So close your eyes
While the moon shines just outside your room
It's where I want to be
So fucking desperately with you

No, I don't care if you're too tired
To open your door to let me in
I'll sneak in somehow
So we can waste this night away together

And I know someday you'll be my star
And I know someday you won't be too far
But tonight I just know that I've been missing you
And I'll wait for you fall back in love with me

And I don't care if you're too scared
To say what you really think because I'm not
I know I still love you
I know I still need you
So lets waste this night away
Lets waste our days away
Lets waste our years away
Lets waste this fucking life away together

Under the Covers
Sunshine sneaking through the window
Tugging on your eyelids
Moving down your cheek
Pull off your sheets
Wake up and breathe

You've been waiting under the covers
I've waiting for you for so long, so long

Shadows dancing on the windows
Dive into the sunshine
Cover up the light
Pull back those sheets
Over our cheeks

We've been waiting under the covers
Waiting for each other
Or maybe it's just me
Maybe it's just me

I slowly let your breath swallow me from miles away
So I can sleep for the first time in weeks
    top

Leaving
Take your time
I've got my whole life
And I can close my eyes
So I can hear your heartbeat
Late at night when I can't sleep
I think of you breathing

Stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
And I wish was standing there to watch the sun set with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do

I have nothing to say
I did nothing all day except wait for you
And it's all I do but it's all I want to do
Late at night
When all our stars are shining bright
I think of you breathing
So fucking scared of you leaving

So stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
And I wish was standing there to watch the sun set with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do and know it's about you
And how I need to not stop thinking about you

Stay quiet for now
We've got a lot not to talk about
But I wish was standing there to watch the moon shine with you
Sleep for now
We've got a lot just to dream about
I know I do
I know I do
I know I do

Sometimes
You've been waiting for days for a reason to stay
And the way that you change is the way that I stay the same
And I know you forget every waking moment

And sometimes I'm fine,
But mostly I'm not

The static from your favorite sweater
Taking pictures from the highway in your car
Now it's all in my head and it's never again

And I'm wondering why,
I even try to breathe

But it's all I want to know
You're all I want to know

Still I'll wait for days in the rain
So that my tears never fade
And your ghost is the same

And sometimes I'm fine,
But mostly I'm not

When every second's a second I'd take back
But every day is a blink in forever
Still I try every way to make you stay
Is my bed not warm?
Are my eyes too worn?

And I'm wondering why,
I even try to breathe

But I still dream of the universe
And how it reminds me of us;
Yet it never fades unlike how I fade
And it's unexplainable and it's unbearable
I can't take anymore so I fall to the floor

And can you believe that I still breathe alone?
    top

The Universe
At the center of the universe
We believe there's a black hole
And last night with my eyes closed
I swear that I reached it's edge
So I took your hand so it would drag us in
And even light could not escape
And you were mine forever

At the very edge of the universe
There's no more space and time
And all our stars and our galaxies
Are far beyond my reach
But I took my hand and I stretched as far as I could go
So I remember you forever

So Moon don't be so far
The Earth it needs your pull
And Moon don't be too far
Because I still I need you

And from now on every second I'll try to travel back in time
To see your face just as it used to be when it used to be mine
And do you want to know why the universe reminds me so much of you?
Because it's all I'll ever know
And it's inconceivably beautiful

But at the center of my universe
There's only you
There's only you
There's only you
There's only you and I forever

Chemicals
We're two chemicals
Thrown into an unlabeled beaker
The mad scientist insists it won't explode
But the solution starts to boil when I dissolve into you
Because I always gave into you

And I'd understand if at the end of the world
You want to be alone
But since I sense it's so soon
I'm starting to wonder why
I guess I'll be fine
But am I ever fine at all?

We're just two chemicals
Obeying the laws that we're told
If I move to you, you move away
And you can break all my bonds but I will reform
Because I won't give up on you

And I'd understand if at the end of the world
You want to be alone
But since it's already here
I'm starting to wonder why
I guess I'll be fine
But I'm not ever fine at all

You used to be my enantiomer
But now you're just my diastereomer

Dear Moon
Dear Moon,
I've been missing you
I noticed lately that you're not as full as you used to be
Or as bright as you need to be to light up this wasteland for me

Dear Moon,
I've been needing you
And without you here light subtracts itself
And my days and my nights become a blur
And my sleep doesn't occur anymore

It used to be that I was enough
It used to be that our love filled the universe
It used to be that I wouldn't cry
It used to be that I loved the night
But not anymore

But I hope you know I still wear my ring
I hope you know I still have my plane
I hope you know I still hold our bear
I hope you know that I don't think it's fair
And I hope you know that I still love you more
I hope you know that I still won't be forgetting you
And after everything I know I'm stupid for forgiving you
But mostly still needing you

So come back home into my arms,
And let our life take it's course
Take it's course

Forever Yours
Falling to my knees
On this blade of pavement clinging
To the starlight clawing through my skin
Then your silence pulls my veins
Through my throat into my grave
With the rain washing my memories from me

My heart it doesn't beat
Against my lovers cheeks
My finger tips don't touch
The girl I love too much
My eyes do not see
What is everything to me
And my voice will never work
Because it's forever yours
Forever yours

So I slide off the edge of this earth
Hoping space will pull me into the sun
So I can feel the true warmth of love burning me up
And when those particles collide on my skin
I'll be wishing you were here at my end
So the last thing I saw was like the first time that I felt alive in my entire life

Now my heart it won't beat
Against my lovers cheeks
My finger tips won't touch
The girl I loved too much
My eyes will not see
What was everything to me
And my voice will cry out one more time
Please save me
Please save me
Please save me now
Please save me now
Please save me
Please save me

So my heart it won't beat
Against your fucking cheeks
My finger tips won't touch
Your fucking skin
And my eyes will not meet
Your fucking gorgeous blue seas
My voice will never work
Because it's forever yours
It's forever yours
It's forever yours
(Please save me)
Know it's forever yours
(Please save me)
No, it's forever yours
(Please save me)
It's forever yours

These Old Bones
This old skin and these old bones
They slowly turn to dust
With each full moon to stir my memories awake

These tired eyes and these starving lungs
They slowly fade with time
Because each second I spent living was apparently a lie

So lets breathe slowly
Pretend we're on time
With each other like all those long nights
So we can remember
Entwined knees under those sheets
Without being afraid of wasting away

This broken heart waits for its last beat
So it can finally be set free
Then I turn into a ghost so I won't feel anything,
Much like you

So lets breathe slowly
Pretend we're on time
With each other like all those long nights
So we can remember
Entwined knees under those sheets
Without being afraid of wasting away

This old skin and these old bones
No, they don't work anymore

Learning to Sleep
Every night I wait
Until I can see your face in the shadows
Just so I can fall asleep and have a nightmare
Wake up, shivering

You're a thunderbolt that lands on me 
With low probability
You're a chainsaw cutting me in half
In a horror movie

I'm a waste of life now
People tell me to grow up and move on
But no one's like me just like no one's like you

And I'd rather be the ground you strike
Than someone safe at home
And I'd rather be in a million pieces
Than safely breathing and whole without you

It's what you do to me
But it's what you do to me

It's what you do to me
And if it's what I have to face
So you realize your true place
Then bring it on

Bring it all fucking on.

For everyone and everything that's ever been
But don't you go losing your sleep
Over little old me

You know I miss you

But I won't miss you anymore

And I think about the times that I sung all night
So you could close your eyes

I
if i believe (e e cummings)

if i believe in death
be sure of this 
it is because you have loved me,
moon and sunset
stars and flowers
gold creshendo and silver muting of seatides

i trusted not, one night
when in my fingers drooped your shining body
when my heart sang between your perfect breasts

darkness and beauty of stars
was on my mouth petals danced
against my eyes and down
the singing reaches of
my soul spoke the green

greeting pale departing irrevocable sea
i knew thee death.

and when i have offered up each fragrant
night,when all my days
shall have been before a certain
face become white perfume only,
from the ashes then thou wilt rise and thou
wilt come to her and brush

the mischief from her eyes and fold her
mouth the new
flower with
thy unimaginable
wings,where dwells the breath
of all persisting stars

ode to childhood (piero scaruffi)

When i was a child, the world,
with all its mysteries scattered
all around my body, was a question
that i dared not ask. I was not afraid:
i was overwhelmed. I did not know yet
the language that could weave together
the words, the sounds, the meaning
which, like a new map, were replacing
the twitching fabric of my dreams.

In the wake of the dying kite,
i understood the meaning of time,
of everybody's time, of the fear
that wise ancient masters buried
in the gilded spires of churches.

At a beach far away from any ocean,
i, the observer, stood in awe of life
and its infinity: i was nowhere nothing,
but life was always there, and beyond.
I, the wave, ran deep into the woods
to feel it into my soul, to learn
its tongue, boundless strains of myth
pervading every cell of my brain.

Since then i, the eigenstate, often toasted
to the life of infinity, because everywhere
everything appeared the same, and nowhere
did nothingness transpire. Life is the name
for the emerging infinity of all infinities.

IV
ode to moon/spacetime (piero scaruffi)

I recede from the visible universe
in the opposite direction to the Moon,
the blunt scythe harvesting nights,
while the endless agony of gravity
leaks the lost alphabet of stars
in which sunrise will be written.

The waters curling in the air
disturbs the withered horizon,
still flickering, still hissing,
and its calm, unwinding murderer.

Darkness, perhaps, is the true fire,
burning all echoes that wouldn't stop.
It is the edge that we wouldn't cross,
that we ought to smelt until it glows.

i cannot fathom an ending to this fear,
i the bleeding shell played by tides,
i the sand castle melting in the foam,
i the vanishing footprint with no name,
i the drop of steam exploding in the surf:
the fear of being lost;
the fear of being found;
the fear of running too fast;
the fear of flying too high;
the haunting fear, perhaps,
of not fearing enough.

The moon unleashes upon me its wake of dreams,
like an oracle that foretells the end. 

[In the face of the endless free fall
shaping our universe, what is one to expect?]

desert places (robert frost)

Snow falling and night falling fast, oh, fast
In a field I looked into going past,
And the ground almost covered smooth in snow,
But a few weeds and stubble showing last.

The woods around it have it--it is theirs.
All animals are smothered in their lairs.
I am too absent-spirited to count;
The loneliness includes me unaware.

And lonely as it is that loneliness
Will be more lonely ere it will be less--
A blanker whiteness of benighted snow
With no expression, nothing to express.

They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
Between stars--on stars where no human race is.
I have it in me so much nearer home to scare myself with my own desert places.

letters that you don't send
pomegranate wednesdays
safe hugs

silently if, out of not knowable (e. e. cummings)

silently if, out of not knowable
nights utmost nothing, wanders a little guess
(only which is this world) more of my life does
not leap than with the mystery your smile

sings or if (spiraling as luminous
they climb oblivion) voices who are dreams,
less into heaven certainly earth swims
than each my deeper death becomes your kiss

losing through you what seemed myself; i find
selves unimaginably mine; beyond
sorrow's own joys and hoping's very fears

yours is the light by which my spirits born:
yours is the darkness of my souls return
�you are my sun, my moon, and all my stars

The Hollow Men by T.S. Eliot

I
We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralyzed force, gesture without motion;

Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to deaths other Kingdom
Remember us � if at all � not as lost
Violent souls, but
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.

II
Eyes I dare not meet in dreams
In deaths dream kingdom
These do not appear:
There, the eyes are
Sunlight on a broken column
There, is a tree swinging
And voices are
In the winds singing
More distant and more solemn
Than a fading star.

Let me be no nearer
In deaths dream kingdom
Let me also wear
Such deliberate disguises
Rats coat, crowskin, crossed staves
In a field
Behaving as the wind behaves
No nearer -

Not that final meeting
In the twilight kingdom

III
This is the dead land
This is cactus land
Here some stone images raised,
here they receive
The supplication of a dead mans hand
Under the twinkle of a fading star.

Is it like this
In deaths other kingdoms
Waking alone
At the hour when we are
Trembling with tenderness
Lips that would kiss
Form prayers to broken stone.

IV
The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
In this valley of dying stars
In this hollow valley
This broken jaw of our lost kingdoms
In this last of meeting places
We grope together
And avoid speech
Gathered on this beach of the tumid river

Sightless, unless
The eyes reappear
As the perpetual star
Multifoliate rose
Of deaths twilight kingdom
The hope only
Of empty men.

Here we go round the prickly pear
Prickly pear prickly pear

Between the desire
And the spasm
Between the potency
And the existence
Between the essence
And the descent
Falls the Shadow

all the time running (mary frances wagner)

Even when you see it coming,
leave tread prints behind,
you'll wonder about this moment,
this curve at dusk, the dog chasing
the coyote across a field, the coyote
losing ground each time he checks
his pursuer, all the time running
toward the road, toward the woods
on the other side, all of us thinking
we have enough time. Then brakes
yield that rubbery smell of trying.
In that instant the coyote sees you,
his eyes hold all he knows.
When you stand on the shoulder,
you'll see the pool form, the eyes
glaze over, the body heat
shimmer into the air; how fast
light subtracts itself.

Sonnet CXVI by William Shakespeare

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worths unknown, although his height be taken.
Loves not Times fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickles compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
          If this be error and upon me proved,
          I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

the remnants of a dying star (andrew mcshan)

there is a darkness in this world
that one can only come to know by the sound of her voice.
in that brief moment, it is as if the black hole at the center of our galaxy
expanded a nanometer too far past it's event horizon and swallowed the universe.
to this the failed astronaut lifts his head towards the light polluted skyline and replies:
"maybe this nothingness won't so bad after all."

last night in a dream he felt infinity pull him out of that nothingness
through the grace of her breath.
but lately his dreams mutate into nightmares as their once bright stars form nebulae;
(the remnants of a dying star).
"what is it about the day that makes the night and these stars seem like a dream?
and what is it about the moon that turns that same night into a nightmare that makes me realize how fucking lucky dead people are."
how fucking lucky dead people must be.

as nothingness finally becomes an unshakeable reality,
he remembers how the universe slowly reformed for five passionate days,
then crumbled under the weight on it's own uncertainty in existence.
"when i was a boy, i dreamt of flying a spaceship to the moon to claim it just for us.
now, i just wait for the fabric of this universe to swallow me into it's nothingness."

boy (russel hammond)

Hidden behind that smile
Is an expression
Which shows the way he truly feels.
An expression never seen
But so recognisable.
On the verge of surfacing - he hides.
Afraid.
Alone.
Not knowing what might happen to him.
His innocence has drowned him
As to happiness he seems immune.
He only needs attention.
Someone who can understand his problems
And the feelings that he hides.
Love's always eluded him,
Left him without a home to go to,
Left him without a use for his name.
How horrible a life he's led.
The path he trod was covered with
Hate,
Indifference,
Rejection.
It was tough.
He's only young.
He's just a
Boy.

from the book "Another Roadside Attraction" (Tom Robbins) 

"There are three things that I like," Amanda exclaimed upon awakening from her first long trance.
"These are: the butterfly, the cactus and the Infinite Goof."

Later, she amended the list to include mushrooms and motorcycles.

While strolling through her cactus garden one warmish June morning,
Amanda came upon an old Navajo man painting pictures in the sand.

"What is the function of the artist?" Amanda demanded of the talented trespasser.

"The function of the artist," the Navajo answered, "is to provide what life does not."

Amanda became pregnant during a fierce thunderstorm.
"Was it the lightning or the lover?"
When her son was born with electrical eyes, people no longer thought her foolish.

Wearing a yellow velvet toga gathered at the waist with green scarabs,
a garland of blue Japanese iris about her neck, her bubbling baby strapped to her back,
Amanda would charge her motorcycle through the meadows searching for rare moths.
One lingering afternoon in spring she chanced upon a small band of gypsies camped beneath a willow tree.

Suspecting them to be skilled in such arts, Amanda asked,
"Will you not reveal to me something of the nature of my true being?"

"What will you do for us in return?" the gypsies asked.

Amanda lowered her long lashes and smiled sweetly.
"I will suck you off," she said.

It was agreed. After she had thoroughly pleased the four men and two girls,
the gypsies told Amanda, "You are by nature a very curious woman," and sent her on her way.

For her birthday, Amanda's father (who was enormously fat) gave her a performing bear.
The bear understood only Russian while Amanda spoke only English and Romani 
(although she was familiar with several of the North American Indian dialects, she never spoke them publicly).
There could be no performance. What to do?

Amanda made friends with the bear. 
She baked for him delicious meat loaves.
She scratched his ears and fed him oranges,
Oreo cream sandwiches and Dr. Pepper. 
Gradually, the bear began to do tricks on his own accord.
He danced when Amanda played her concordia, he rode her silver bicycle,
he balanced three croquet balls on his nose and smoked fine cigars.

One day a man from the Moscow Circus visited the city near Amanda's town.
At the request of her father, he came to see the bear.
He barked commands at the bear in Russian but the bear paid no heed
and eventually rolled over on his rug and went to sleep.

"That damn bear never would take orders," the circus man complained.
"Frankly, that's why we sold him."

That summer, Amanda's big project was the establishment of a Butterfly Conservatory.
Since many moths have a very short life-span,
there was a big turnover among the inhabitants of her institution.

Down by the waterfall, Amanda pitched her tent --
it was made of willow sticks and the wool of black goats.
Having filled the tent with her largest and softest plaisley cushions,
Amanda stripped down to her beads and panties and fell into a trance."
I shall determine how to prolong the lives of butterflies," she had previously announced.

However, an hour later when she awoke, she smiled mysteriously.
"The life-span of the butterfly is precisely the right length," she said.

La Mort des Amants (Charles Baudelaire) [The Death of Lovers]

left (original version in french):
Nous aurons des lits pleins d'odeurs l�g�res,
Des divans profonds comme des tombeaux,
Et d'�tranges fleurs sur des �tag�res,
Ecloses pour nous sous des cieux plus beaux.

Usant � l'envi leurs chaleurs derni�res,
Nos deux coeurs seront deux vastes flambeaux,
Qui r�fl�chiront leurs doubles lumi�res
Dans nos deux esprits, ces miroirs jumeaux.

Un soir fait de rose et de bleu mystique,
Nous �changerons un �clair unique,
Comme un long sanglot, tout charg� d'adieux;

Et plus tard un Ange, entr'ouvrant les portes,
Viendra ranimer, fid�le et joyeux,
Les miroirs ternis et les flammes mortes.

right (english translation by William Aggeler, The Flowers of Evil (Fresno, CA: Academy Library Guild, 1954):
We shall have beds full of subtle perfumes,
Divans as deep as graves, and on the shelves
Will be strange flowers that blossomed for us
Under more beautiful heavens.

Using their dying flames emulously,
Our two hearts will be two immense torches
Which will reflect their double light
In our two souls, those twin mirrors.

Some evening made of rose and of mystical blue
A single flash will pass between us
Like a long sob, charged with farewells;

And later an Angel, setting the doors ajar,
Faithful and joyous, will come to revive
The tarnished mirrors, the extinguished flames.

Ode to a Loved One  [Sappho (c. 610-570 B.C.) translated by Ambrose Philips]

Blest as the immortal gods is [she],
The youth who fondly sits by thee,
And hears and sees thee all the while
Softly speak and sweetly smile.
 
'Twas this deprived my soul of rest,
And raised such tumults in my breast;
For while I gazed, in transport tossed,
My breath was gone, my voice was lost:
 
My bosom glowed; the subtle flame
Ran quick through all my vital frame;
O'er my dim eyes a darkness hung;
My ears with hollow murmurs rung.
 
In dewy damps my limbs were chilled;
My blood with gentle horror thrilled;
My feeble pulse forgot to play;
I fainted, sank, and died away.

Frustration (padmore agbemabiese)

I have walked through the wilderness with no wings
yet the stars keep twinkling sometimes,
I am scourged by the cold starlit heaven the pain dreary and my sore heart weary

this soul speaks of a storm with an axe deep into its roots
and the pain is like a salty stream running through a wounded heart yet,
the fair moon's soft splendor voice laughs and scorns and rises into starlit heaven

I heard a voice say, no leaf will be shaken yet,
dews like a melody scatter
and these tears are only the telescope with which I see into heaven

maybe someday, somewhere my songs
and feeling will greet the moon that day
there'll be banqueting in the sky and in every dark night of the soul
lost to searing shooting pain sounds of joy will echo,
pushing away wet clogging leaves of long dead tulips

somewhere, clouds will tumble tempting to scoop some earth
to kiss lips of the potted primrose but the forecast will be frost
for them they will pull on a winter coat in spring
and yesterday will come back like a sore throat 
even the chill would be felt through woolen sleeves

there, it will come to light it seems their prophets misinterpreted the season.

[song sung in the back is Brightest by Copeland]

Beauty
I wonder why I ever really doubted love.
But I can see it your smile and it's the meaning of forever.
And as the wind blows these feelings grow.

And I know it just gets better.
And I know it just gets better.

I'll forget the plans we made,
As I'm flying on this plane into your arms.
We can let it all just play out.
That's the best way to create our memories,
The one's you'll always keep in your heart.

And I know it just gets better.
And I know it just gets better.
And I know it just gets better.

When all you need to do is take second to reflect on the things you do.
With the moonlight shining in your eyes,
You can learn to find the beauty in this life.

Sunshine
Did you know you, you make my world go round,
And my heart beat slow.
And when you lay your eyes on me I can barely breathe.
So I just hold on tight and feel your hand in mine.

You are my sunshine, angel don't cry.
I'll be right there by your side.
And if you miss me, just close your eyes.
I'll be right there by your side.

Do you know I, I see your best in me and my best in you.
And you can paint me anything you want.
I'll hang it on my wall but you're most beautiful of all.
You're the most beautiful of all things in this world.

You are my sunshine, angel don't cry.
I'll be right there by your side.
And if you miss me, just close your eyes.
I'll be right there by your side.

Believe me when I say,
I've spent every second of every day missing you.
But no more, no more

You are my sunshine, angel don't cry.
I'll be right there by your side.
And if you miss me, just close your eyes.
I'll be right there by your side. 

You are my sunshine, angel don't cry.
I'll be right there.
And when you miss me, just close your eyes.
I'll be right there by your side.

Safe
I want to the feel the warmth of your breath wrapped around my face.
When it's cold outside and we're safe inside from this winter,
And I don't mind laying here forever.

As I trace your shadow along the wall,
I get to lost in all of this.
The moment I was meant to live.

If could I say anything to you, 
I'd say the same thing that I always do.
There's nothing I wouldn't give to hold you right now. 

As I trace your shadow along the wall,
I get to lost in all of this.
The moment we were meant to live.

Sometimes I know things don't go as planned.
But sweetheart, I'll always give you my hand.

All I want from life is for you to always be mine.
It's not too much to ask when every moment feels like forever.
I need to the feel the warmth of your breath wrapped around my face.
When it's cold outside and we're safe inside from this winter,
And you know I wouldn't mind laying here forever.

Breathe
We'll take this slowly.
We're learning to breathe for the first time in love,
And like gravity we hold each other in place.
And can you believe how fast we've grown the last two years?
(The best of our lives)
And I can't wait to spend it out under the stars.

I've never seen Earth this far away and I'm sorry to say
It's not as beautiful as you are.
When you are softly breathing and slowly dreaming of me.

I believe in nothing but love.

Believe me when I say I've spent every second of every day missing you,
But no more, no more.

And I'm learning how to calm my bones when you not around.
I just think of how you'd always stare into the clouds.
I know I get closer to you with every breath,
So I shut my eyes and know I'll be right there.

Ocean
I would swim across an ocean for you,
To help fight off the storms that bring you down.
And when the night is dark, I'll be the moonlight that shines down on you.

And you, you're everything I'll ever need and more.
So I fall, I fall to my knees waiting for you.

Your blue eyes remind me of the sea.
They engulf me at every glance.
I'll take my time looking to the sky wishing I could fly to you.

And you, you're everything I'll ever need and more.
So I fall, I fall to my knees waiting for you.

Every breathe I'll ever take is for you.
Every beat my heart will ever make is for you.

And you, you're everything I'll ever need and more.
So I fall, I fall into your arms.

Sleep
Lay your head against the bed,
And feel the love flow through your veins.
And if you're scared just close your eyes and see through mine.
(You'll see through mine)

You are the light at the end of the tunnel.
It won't be long until the sun starts to settle.
And I'll be waiting for the owls to bury into the oak trees
Like you do to me before we both fall asleep.

Lay your head against the bed,
While I sing to you as you fall asleep.
And when you dream, just dream of me and that we'll never leave.
(And know that's not a dream)

You are the light at the end of the tunnel.
It won't be long until the sun starts to settle.
And I'll be waiting for the owls to bury into the oak trees
Like you do to me before we both fall asleep.

You know I breathe softly when I'm thinking of you
And when I'm sleeping, I breathe so softly.

Lay your head against the bed,
While I tell you how we fell so quickly in love.
We fell so quick.
Lay your head against the bed,
And whisper you know we'll be like this forever.
Lay your head against the bed,
My voice will hold you tighter than ever before.
Lay your head against the bed,
And feel the love flow through your veins.
And if you're scared just close your eyes and see through mine.
Lay your head against my chest,
And know that this is what you do to me.

Dream
Sweet dreams, my lovely.
You are everything to me.
You are the breeze blowing gently.
The air that I need, the sun that gives me life.

And I'll keep you safe and calm.
My angel, my only one.

As I float through the sky,
My imagination runs wild.
I'm a bird then I'm a plane.
Then I'm in your arms just where I belong.

Rain
I feel raindrops fall against my window.
The wind outside roars.
It's when this happens I seem to miss you most.

And I know someday I'll be with you.
The rain will fade away and let the sun shine.
But for now I'll lay in this bed and wait,
For you to call and make my nightmares go away.

I know this when we're driving on the highway,
And the rain pours down.
It's when this happens I feel more alive than I could ever imagine.

And I know someday I'll be next to you.
The rain will fade away and let the sun shine.
But for now I'll lay in this bed and wait,
For you to call and make my nightmares go away.

I miss you.
I miss you most.
I miss you.
I need you.

And I know someday I'll be with you.
The rain will fade away and let the sun shine through.

Love
Wake up, my darling.
I have a secret I've kept from you.
I've needed you my whole life,
Even when I didn't know you.

So don't be gone too long,
Or it will break my heart.
Just keep your mind on me,
So that we'll never part ways.

I know that it sounds crazy,
But life is crazy isnt it? It is.
I used to think about its meaning until I met you.
Then I knew its all for love, for love.

But don't be gone too long,
Or it will break my heart.
Just keep your mind on me,
So that we'll never part ways.

You're my universe,
My one and only star.
You are the ocean waves swaying softly...away.

So don't be gone too long,
Because it will break my heart.
Just keep your mind on me,
So that we'll never part ways.

Wake up, my darling,
I have a secret I've kept from you.
I need you my whole life.
I need you here tonight.

Life
Life is like deep space.
You never know what you'll find.
But I, I got lucky because you found me.

And I, I won't close my eyes until you're sleeping soft,
Cause I promised I'd always take care of you.
So I, I just kiss you soft and hold on close,
Cause we both know that you only live once.

You're not in my dreams,
Because you're here with me.
And plus I couldn't dream you up if I tried.
So read to me about far of worlds,
And how a star is born cause it reminds me of you.

And I, I won't close my eyes until you're sleeping soft,
Cause I promised I'd always take care of you.
So I, I just kiss you soft and hold on close,
Cause we both know that you only live once.

I try everyday to let you know I'd give everything for you.

And I, I won't close my eyes until you're sleeping soft,
Cause I promised I'd always take care of you.
So I, I just kiss you soft and hold on close,
Cause we both know that you only live once.

How The Stars Fell Into The Sky 
Take all it back (Take it away from me)
These lines are getting blurred,
And this is how the stars fell into the sky.
(So maybe I could stay awake)
I'm waiting longer than forever,
And will I see things better on the otherside?
Somewhere I lost sight of what was meant for us.

Every time I take this chance everything changes,
And as you supernova I can't help but fall through.

Let it all go (Take it further away from me)
I cannot even dream at all with you gone.
(So maybe I would stay away)
I'm searching longer than forever,
Following the light of your pulsating heart,
That revolved around me.

Every time I take this chance everything changes,
And as you supernova I can't help but fall through.
I can't help but fall through.

Take all it back (Take it away from me)
I'll cross this galaxy for you,
Let it all go (Take it further away from me)
Through nebulae and wormholes,
Take all it back (Take it away from me)
And when I finally reach the end,
Let it all go (Take it further away from me)
Of the universe I'll be glad I fell through.

Every time I take this chance everything changes.
And as you supernova I can't help but fall through.

Oceans of Skyline
Vast oceans of skyline divide this uncertainty of you and
I might not be one to forget that easily.
And maybe it's for the best or maybe you will regret playing charades,
When every seconds another spent alone.

I've got good reason to believe,
That things are not quite what they seem.
Just give me enough space to breathe,
And I will be somebody else for you.

I'm reading headlighs as S.O.S.
You never said goodbye, you never second guessed.
This summer silence tells me everything I didn't want know.
Just let her go.

I've got good reason to believe,
That things are not quite what they seem.
Just give me enough space to breathe,
And I will be somebody else for you.

We're gonna tear down the sky tonight,
If it'll make everything right.

I've got good reason to believe,
That things are not quite what they seem.
Just give me enough space to breathe,
So I can be somebody else for you.

Aphelion
My mind is black hole of broken dreams
Without you here next to me,
And this skyline sunrise won't suffice.
You're the reason that I exist.
Your heartbeat strengthens my resonance.
Should I take this slow or will you just let go?

Last night I looked up and matched each star
With a reason why, why I love you.
Last night I looked up and matched each star
With a reason why, why I love you.

Deep down in the core of your heart
At your center of gravity do you feel anything at all?
Still the best is what you deserve
So how could it sound absurd if I tell you what you want to hear.
When I tell you what you want to hear,
Do you feel anything at all?

Last night I looked up and matched each star
With a reason why, why I love you.
Last night I looked up and matched each star
With a reason why, why I love you.
And I was doing just fine until I ran out of stars.
Still, look how they shine for you.
Just look how you shine...

Oh, oh.

Last night I looked up and matched each star
With a reason why, why I love you.
(Do you feel anything at all?)

The Astronaut
When we were kids you'd tell me everyday
I want us to run away.
When you grow up to be an astronaut,
You can fly us to the moon.
And it'll be just us marveling at the Earth.

And we will feel more alive.
And here we'll spend our whole lives.
And we will melt into the sky,
Without saying goodbye.

Then you grew up and you grew out of me,
And all hope within me died.
I thought promises were never meant to end.
And why am I not everything I was ever meant to be?

The only time I feel alive,
Is in my dreams when I
Can melt into your eyes
Without saying goodbye

Do you forget so quick?

I'll say anything. I'll do anything.
I'll say anything to be in your dreams.

If you could give me melon skies to,
Replace the deep blue seas in my eyes.
Would you even try?
And do you stare at the moon late at night?
Or am I just a figment of your mind?

The only time I feel alive,
Is in my dreams where I
Can stare into your eyes
Without saying goodbye.

Do you forget so quick?

Do you feel anything at all?
(I'll say anything. I'll do anything.
I'll say anything to be in your dreams.)

Orion
We awake to a sunrise tragedy.
A silhouette of someone else in your memories.
And if the sky falls down then we can't hold it up. 
I always knew you'd run away,
I never dreamt it'd be today.
And who knows if you'll find your back home.

And you know me,
I'll wait forever you for you.
And you know me.

Take back everything you said,
It wasn't meant to end like this.
(And what are you running from?)
Even if it's temporary,
Maybe you can keep me breathing this time.

We fall asleep to a sunset tragedy.
Forgetting everything that meant anything to me
So if the sky falls down we still can't hold it up. 
The moon reminds me of my mistakes.
The one's you always knew I'd make.
It's ok if I just fade away from your life.

You know me,
I'll keep on coming back for more.
And you know me.

Take back everything you said,
It wasnt meant to end like this.
(And what are you running from?)
Even if it's temporary,
Maybe you can keep me breathing this time.

I'll be anything you ask to keep the past from repeating itself.
And I'll do anything you ask, if you will fall into my arms.
But these highway drives lead to goodbyes.
So find me a place to feel alive.
Just let me fall into your eyes.

Take back everything you said,
It wasnt meant to end like this.
(And what are you running from?)
Even if it's temporary,
Maybe you can keep me breathing this time.

Take back everything you said,
It wasnt meant to end like this.
(And what are you running from?)
But I'll be holding my breath,
Until I'm in your arms.
Until you find your way back home.
Please find your way back home.

Andromeda
3 million light-years away from home,
And I am lost and freezing cold but still hanging on. (I don't know why)
All that I can see is the light from far off stars slowly dying.
And how did this all begin?
How did our love begin?
And how will the universe end?
Is this how our love ends?
And I'll just stay here and fade away,
The way you let me fade away. (Without a sound)
Not even God could save me now.

Deep in the darkest reaches of the universe,
Far past any point of return,
He began to erase the stars in hope that his love would return to him.
15 long years of searching and there still was no sign,
But maybe she didn't want to come back.
They always say the world acts in mysterious ways,
And that it's always for the best.
But if she doesn't need me then I guess this fraction of second in the endless vice of time isn't worth living.
So I'll wait here, holding my breath until you decide to save me,
But it may be too late....it already is too late.
(But I'll always love you.)

Special Relativity
You always thought too hard about us.
Like we were a problem to be solved.
But it's too (but it's too late)
I'm already gone away.

And since I'm falling faster,
Don't wait now or you'll wait forever.
(You were the sun to me.)
And I can't take this slowly,
My eyes are closed with fear of being lonely
(You were the air I breathed.)

Maybe this is your fault (maybe this is my fault)
Did you consider that?
When you were blaming everything on me.
The currents close, the sky explodes;
Feel space-time collapse around your knees.

And since I'm falling faster,
Don't wait now or you'll wait forever.
(You were the sun to me.)
And I can't take this slowly,
My eyes are closed with fear of being lonely
(You were the air I breathed.)

And I will never find my way back home again.
The moon will be the only memory of me.
I don't regret a single word I said;
Or didn't say, or didn't say, or didn't say.

I don't miss you.

Ut Lux Lucis Fades
It's all barren now, it's like a wasteland.
An atomic bomb has been layed down across my heart.
And I'm left in the dark.
And if the planets align, it's a sign that maybe I should leave.
You mean nothing. You mean nothing anymore.

But I'm coming home to see that the oceans are gone,
And the sky is grey, the blue faded away.
It's a routine I've grown keen to.
It's the last time that I miss you.

It's all foreign now, you shut me out.
And I didn't forget but oh I want to forget.
About the nature of light and about everything.
And as these mountains collide and I try
To feel the regret inside as you bursts into flames. 
But I feel nothing. I feel nothing anymore.

And I'm coming home to see that the oceans are gone,
And the sky is grey, the blue faded away.
It's a routine I've grown keen to.
It's the last time that I miss you.

I've never seen Earth from this far away.
And I'm sorry to say it's not as beautiful as you were;
When you were softly sleeping, slowly dreaming of me.

Those Eyes
I remember it like the day I was born.
You strolled into the room and I suddenly felt warm.
For the first time in my life I was whole.
You held up your chin with your eyes so wide.
Clinging to me and promised me you'd try,
To be everything I could ever need.
But you didn't know that you already were.
Those movie marathons ran past our bedtimes,
That would end in pillow fights, on our backs, with lips pressed tight.
Regardless, you read through etched curves on my notebook
There's beauty in routine.
So would you breathe in harmony with me?
"How I wish I was yours. How I wish you were mine.
Please let me hold those pretty wide eyes. Oh, those eyes.."
I swear to you, we'll be absolute.
A week later it's two in the morning,
You're lying in my lap I know that I'm going to break.
Unless you kiss me on the cheek and tell me I'm your everything.
Cause I've never heard it before.
It reminds me of how beautiful the world can be.

In Dreams
Take baby steps towards me,
With your hand stretched out reaching,
And slowly press on my chest.
I confess I've been hiding what I feel.
But you noticed through my speech patterns,
The late night calls and staying home,
I'm quickly falling for you.

This is how it goes in dreams.
No sound or image; only the feeling.
So I sit and toss sea shells into the ocean to
Remember dancing to the glow of The Moon.

Take baby steps towards me,
With your eyes closed tight reaching,
And softly press on my chest.
I confess I've been hiding what I desire.
But you noticed through my speech patterns,
The late night rides and holding hands.
That I already fell in love,

With you.
And I always will take care of you.

A Perfect Star
You open your soft lips passably and press them against mine.
We watch the ocean waves crashing in the moonlight.
The breeze blows your hair around everywhere and I smile.
But this is not a dream I've been awake for awhile.

You're a wish come true.
Nothing's wrong when I'm with you.
You're a perfect star.
And I'll float away in your arms.

I stare into the deepest blue while lying on top of you.
In the sand I wrote I love you all along the coast.
I shut my eyes and hold you close with my cheek against your nose.
This is a moment I thought was impossible.

Everything I've dreamed of rests in your smile.
Your voice has soothing melodies that drift me to sleep.

Aren't even close to anywhere as perfect as you are, sweetie.

Overland Park
As we watch the sunset tonight off your rooftop in Overland Park.
I've never seen anything so beautiful.
And I don't mean the sunset this time.
I'm lost inside light eyes.

I could have a waterfall of you around me.
I wouldn't mind in fact it'd make me happy.
With you I'll never feel so lonely,
I close my eyes and breathe in slowly.
Forget the sky above and ground below,
You grab hold of me so I'm never cold.
With you I feel so safe and sound,
If such things exist for me then I am made for you.

I don't think anything will ever mean so much to me
As the sound of your voice as you breathe.
And say my name and lay your head on me.
Lightly, slowly.

Beneath the night sky with your face lit up by the moonlight
I sit waiting for you to speak to me.
Beneath the night sky your palm pressed soft against mine,
As you sit breathing on me whispering.

Yeah it's alright it's okay.
Darling dear, you make my every day worth living.
You're the only thing I'm dreaming of.
Yeah you're amazing; you're perfect.
There are not words that can describe you.
Or the way I feel.

Beneath the night sky fire flies dimmed by your eyes.
Until the morning sun kisses us goodnight.
Beneath the night sky we will never say goodbye.

Yeah it's alright it's okay.

Yeah you're amazing; you're perfect.

Your eyes close listening to me.
Every night as I drift to sleep.
My eyes close listening gently.
To every single syllable you sing.
I promise it's the most beautiful thing
That I've ever heard and I ever will, oh.

[My darling I'm your dork forever.
And anything you wish of me you'll get times infinity.
My dearest I'll sing to you forever.
Until my voice dies and I stop being clever.
My lovely I'll love you forever.
And I swear I do and I will.]

Autumn leaves with everlasting complacency,
Tell me why you respire.
What and why do you desire?
The sky watches you with envy,
Descend gently knowing you're why I exist.

Toujours (Vous Avez Mon Coeur)
Ma chérie, allumer la lumière.
Et appuyer votre joue contre ma visage.
Le soleil n'a pas besoin de coucher, ma lapin doux.
Je tiendrai votre main.
Et enlever toute votre douleur.

Ce soir, le monde est chaud.
Comme je tombe plus profond dans l'amour.
Ce soir, la lune brille pour vous.

Je serai le vôtre à jamais jusqu'à mon dernier souffle.
Seulement à la vue de vos yeux ouverts.
Le drap glisse par votre nez si vous pouvez respirer pour la première fois.

Ce soir, le monde est chaud.
Comme je tombe plus profond dans l'amour.
Ce soir, la lune brille pour vous.

Quand vous vous sentez triste.
Rappelez vous avez mon coeur avec vous, toujours.

If I'm The Sun Then You're The Moon
You're an airplane gliding along mid-level clouds.
You're the ocean waves the breeze blowing against my face.
You're an unfinished story the one I want to read.
A song that last forever you'll never leave me.

You're the moon on Monday, you're my favorite kind of dream.
You're a train crossing a line of castles in a fantasy.
You're a kiss on the cheek in the sand on a beach.
A hug that last forever it's never over.

And to tell you what you mean to me.
You're better than all my favorite things.
And to tell you you're my everything.
It's not enough.

You're a Shakespeare sonnet, colliding pigments in the sky.
You're the sun providing light to me with empathetic certainty.
You're a puppy dog napping in a car.
You're a perfect star as I float away in your arms.

And to tell you what you mean to me.
You're better than all my favorite things.
And to tell you you're my everything.
It's not enough.

And every night when I go to sleep.
I wake up and know you're next to me.
And if I die before I wake,
At least I'll die the happiest in the world.

I'll sleep so soft, so smooth, and so calm.
Tonight with you in my arms so long.
It's something I've been dreaming of.
I don't think I can thank you enough.

I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
You won't forget me.

A Lifetime is a Day
My little umbrella you keep me dry,
On those days when the sky cries.
There are no clouds to lean on or fall through.
My little umbrella you keep me safe and warm.
I'll admit it's something I've never had before.

With hair crossing your eyes and,
A pair of black glasses.
That patient smile.

My little umbrella you cover me with shade,
On the first day of June.
I can hardly breathe but I feel lighter.
I could listen to you breathe for hours.
And hours and I do.
But it means more to me than it does to you:

The red shirt that I like and,
A locket around your neck.
The same pair of jeans as last week.

You're why the world spins.
You're why I dream when I'm awake.
You're where spring begins.
You're forever and it'll stay that way.
You're why the world spins.
(You save me from the nights where I thought I'd be without you.
But you're always there silent beneath my sheets.)
You're why I dream when I'm awake.
(We stay awake until morning comes cheek against cheek when the light peeks in)
You're forever and it'll stay that way.
(Through our transparent curtains and I can see your eyes the widest they've ever been.)

The red shirt that I like and,
A locket around your neck.
You're the girl I won't forget.

She Is The Light That Brightens My Heart
I plan on spending every morning waking to half closed eyes.
Tangled under bedsheets and pillows nose to nose.
And the only time our hands would be apart,
Is when I slide it across your cheek to tell you good morning.

You're the sparkle off of sand.
You're the gently blowing wind.
I bite the top of your lip and breathe.

I can tell the future from your smile.
And the way you comb your hair when you stare at me.
Everything is better than we both ever could've dreamed.

You're the light shining off the moon.
You're the shadow lining my room.
I press my eyelashes against yours and say
You're everything.

She is the light that brightens my heart.
[You're everything]

The Longest Year of My Life
In the reflection of the window as it rained.
I traced outline of your face. It wiped away.
I wondered why I couldn't be one of those drops.
Even though I know how hard they fall when I dream,
Of a february verse.

In the reflection of the lake fighting off the breeze.
I let the tide pull me in and just laid there.
I wondered how surface tension could still hold me up.
Even though I know how heavy my heart can be when I dream,
Of just floating away from short days and longer nights away.

I lift this worn face towards the sky, embraced.
    top

Autophobia
Walk towards me and let your whispers linger
Speaking soft of love and fear of heartache
I swore once that I'd never let you down
Hold onto me and we'll escape from this prison
(That held us captive for too long.)

Sweetie, I'm here with you now,
To keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind,
It's you I'll always stay behind.

I made a wish while admiring the sky,
For someone to tear me from this lonely life.
Across the states you wished the same thing,
I never thought we'd be something
(That I always wanted us to be.)

Sweetie, I'm here with you now,
To keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind,
It's you I'll always stay behind.

I look at you and I know.
I look at you and I know,
You're the angel that fixed my heart.
I look at you and I know.
I look at you and I know,
You're the one that caught my flailing star.

Sweetie, I'm here with you now,
To keep my promises to keep you safe.
No one will ever change my mind,
It's you I'll always stay behind.

You're so far away,
But you can feel my breath on your neck.
This distance kills but it's still worth it.
You're so far away,
But I can feel your hands on my chest.
This distance kills but it's still worth it.
This distance kills but it's still worth it.
This distance kills but you're still worth it.

Headlights and Parking Lots
We danced around empty parking lots with radiant headlights shining on us.
Days have passed, but oh so slow, and this feeling grows,
Lying on the floor with you.

Oh, oh you're everything.
Oh, oh you're all I need.
Oh, oh falling like a star.
Oh, oh I'll never be too far away.

Oh, oh you're everything.
Oh, oh you're my dream.
Oh, oh falling like a plane.
Oh, oh I'll never be the same again.

Delusion
Lay your head down it'll be just fine in a week.
I know forgiveness comes easy.
I know you'll forget me.
Our lips pressed softly as the moon sits calmly.
Remember how we used to be?
Lay your head down it'll be just fine in a week.

Quicksand
She lays her head down,
I admire her breathe.
I always knew she was the girl of my dreams.
I was your best friend,
You'd tell me it all.
But that's all we'll ever be.
It's only half the dream.
And wouldn't it be grand,
If I could hold your hand for awhile.
But what is fair anyway?

But your eyes are quicksand,
And I'm smiling as I drown myself in them.

Promises, perfect.
I can remember it hurting when I couldn't walk up to you.
Losing and loving.
I can't remember it feeling so good.
She lays her head down,
I admire her breathe.
I always knew you were the girl of my dreams.
And wouldn't it be grand,
If I could just hold you.
I was your best friend,
So that's all we'll ever be.

But your eyes are quicksand,
And I'm smiling as I drown myself in you.

A Tangible Structure
You say, "If you were to have wait too long,
I might have to leave."
I say, "Please, don't go."
I know that leaves sometimes, they fall too soon.
And oh, so slow.
I say, "Please, don't go."

You scream if I were to have said that then,
You might have stayed.
I say, "Please, don't go."
I know that fear sometimes, it's just too much
And never slow.
Again I say, "Please, don't go."

This all happened too fast,
You thought that we could never last.
Downtown where I shined so bright,
Then back at home where you held me so tight.
This all is happening too fast,
And I knew that we could always last.
Downtown where you shined so bright,
Then back at home where you said goodbye..

Goodbye.
(I love you.)

You whisper if I were to have kissed you then
I might have...
I say, "Please, don't go."
I know that love sometimes it comes and goes.

The Last Star Left In The Sky Burns Out
These stars have been falling continuously these last few weeks.
I have been dreaming the same dream of you and me in a car.
Going downtown on a Wednesday night and watching the sky burn.
And all you said was I've never seen a sky like this burn down.

Skies falling down, down onto this town.
Everything's gone wrong now that you are gone.
Every single day I wish to get away.
I'm sorry, I'm not sorry.
You're just another story.
    top

Downtown
It's too easy to forget
(Skies falling down)
It's too hard to admit
(Down onto this town)
It's easy to forget
(Everything's gone wrong.)
It's too hard to admit
(Now that you are gone.)
I've been asking too many questions
(Every single day,)
Begging for the answers.
(I wish to get away.)
And now that I know
(I'm sorry I'm not sorry,)
I just can't let you go.
(You're just another story.)

I-45 Northbound
These mountainous street lights they pave our way,
But blind us and keep you away.
They shine so bright to push me through
These memories are overcast, I'll remember them much too soon.

Take me back to where I was
In your arms downtown,
Where nothing was spoken soft.
Take me back to way back when
We weren't opposites,
And you promised this wouldn't end.

This is a place, I probably shouldn't be.
(But don't run away.)
This is a place, I never should have gone.
(No, stay right here please.)
This is a place, I really shouldn't see.
(Just don't stay, no)
This is a place, where I should never have gone.
(You've been here much too long.)

Take me back to where I was
In your arms downtown,
Where nothing was shouted loud.
Take me back to way back when
We weren't opposites,
And you promised this wouldn't end.

These mountainous street lights they pave our way,
But blind us and keep you away.
And shine so bright to push me through
These memories are overcast, I'll remember you much too soon.

Promise Ring
I can't breathe tonight,
Cause you're holding me too tight.
But I'm not complaining, no I'm not complaining.
And the way you comb your hair,
Reveals that nothing else is fair
Unless I have you, and I do.
Downtown is the best place I've ever been so far.

Would you take this ring?
If I promised everything to you tonight?
I know that we just met,
But it feels like we have been here forever,
I know we will.

Perfection is anything you.
So it never matters what you do
When downtown is best place you've ever been.

Would you take this ring?
If I promised everything to you tonight?
I know that we just met,
But it feels like we have been here forever,
I know we will.

I'll never let go.

I can't breathe tonight,
Cause you're holding me too tight.
But I'm not complaining, no I'm not complaining.

Memorial Park
The sun set too early today.
So it may not ever rise again.
The wind blowed as the moon glowed,
As I tried to let go.

The sun fell down,
(Without a sound.)
Into a bed of clouds.
(Onto this town.)
And now that I know,
(I'm so sorry.)
I can't let you go.
(You're just another story.)

Blinding lights,
The car screeched in the night,
To silence all that I loved.
A faint cry with no goodbye,
As you faded into the night,

The sun fell down,
(Without a sound.)
Into a veil of clouds.
(Onto this town.)
And now that I know,
(I'm so sorry.)
I can't let you go.
(You're just another story.)

Five Flights Down
Hey cloud, how are you doing there?
Why are you staring so blankly?
Are you carrying a storm just to drop it onto me?
I've never done anything wrong.

Lonely girl, who are you looking for?
Don't you know that she's been lost for years?
Covered beneath some blankets, with a pillow for a cure.
Could you tell me what she was like before?

Holding your breath does no damage.
And singing songs only makes it worse.
Because this time it truly hurts.

I'm closing my eyes and counting to ten.
They say it always helps with whatever you need it for.
But all I need to have is what I had before,
It doesn't look too good right now.

Lonely girl, who am I dreaming of?
A nice boy? Or just a boy?
Pressed between my sheets with his arms around me.
Could you tell me what it's like?

Holding your breath does no damage.
And singing songs only makes it worse.
Because this time it truly hurts.

Five flights down there's a girl.
All she does is dream.

Oceans Behind Walls
I apologize for what I am.
Martyrs must be such a nuisance to live with.
The pointless things I've given up and lost;
I've never asked for bridges or chaples for what I've done.
Just unwritten acknowledgment when your eye's drift through me 
(Never over me) 

What more could I possibly give?
Is there a wall or a mountain I ever denied,
To rip down with my own nails?
I've kept myself in my skin for longer than I care to say.
Yet somthing about this night is screaming for me to tear right into me.
I'm tired of waiting for an apology.
Even if the sound of six simple letters would be worth the breathing I've lost,
And the sleep I've held.

Sorry to say that I don't brag,
But I have yet to lose my chance to.
You spend all your time silently convencing yourself that you're coming apart. 
I spend my nights tying my pecies together with sheets and pens.

I've watched tree limbs tear down memories,
For storm clouds as they flew for the ground. 
And I've seen shorelines flee with them to oceans behind walls.

Devil In Disguise
It's been four months and three weeks, two days and one night,
Since I last laid eyes on a devil in disguise.
In an angel's body who easily forgot me,
And won't ever remember those times in December.

When we cried together,
When we laughed together
When we'd be together forever.

Then you threw away so easily,
Something that meant everything to me.
I hope you never know what it's like to be with someone new.
And oh so entertaining, not as boring or animated,
But who doesn't know the meaning of love.

When we cried together,
When we laughed together
When we'd be together forever.

You make me bleed out lies every time you make me cry.
You make it always end every time you do me in.
You make it hard to be fine every time you come online.
But you make me forget everything when you're with me.

I Have A Crush On Michelle Branch
A breath of fresh air,
Mickey mouse underwear;
What else could compare?
There's nothing I want more,
Then for Michelle Branch to be my world.
So I'll cross my fingers and go to sleep,
When I wake up I hope she's next to me.

Michelle, Michelle,
You can have my heart.
Just promise,
Don't break it or rip it apart,
Michelle, Michelle.

I don't care if you're gangter.
I don't care if you're gay.
I don't care if you're a grumpy head,
You're cuter that way.
I don't mind if you love rubber duckey,
Because I love him too.
So we can love him together.

Michelle, Michelle,
You can have my heart.
Just promise,
Don't break it or rip it apart,

You're everywhere to me.
And when I close my eyes it's you I see.
And even though you'll never be with me,
I'm not alone.
I'm not alone,
Cause you're hanging on my wall.

Fornever
Alright, I'm done with all this lonely crap.
I need a girl who can most def make me laugh.
I need a girl who will sing to me in bed.
But mostly she's gotta give great head.
She's sweet, she's got a real nice rack.
And it's imperative, she must have back.
I need a girl who will not make me dead. 
I need a girl who throw me into her bed.

You say that nothing last forever.
Well, I say that nothing last fornever.
If you think when I wear pink,
It makes me any less cool you'd be super wrong.

Alright, I'm done with this nice crap.
It's over, I'm finished, cause this is whack.
I've got a squirt gun in my closet.
So if you wanna push it, girl, then don't stop it.
You're sweet, you got a real nice rack
But just one thing you won't ever come back.
I need a girl who loves completely,
I need you more than you ever needed me.

You say that nothing last forever.
Well, I say that nothing last fornever.
And no I can't, just forget,
Who you did and where you went.

You say that nothing last forever.
Well, I say that nothing last fornever.
And I never thought you'd leave me to,

Smelly Pirate Hooker
I've got a bad taste in my mouth from last night.
I don't remember what I did,
I guess my pants were way too tight.
I look over next to me,
There's this girl with a patch on her eye and she's staring at my knees.

Smelly pirate hooker,
Please make my dreams come true.
Come on shore again,
But please still be my friend.

Oh, oral pleasures aboard this pirate ship.
You and me can sail the seas cause on the radar we're just a blip.
But don't get any bright ideas,
Or I'll pay you the flat rate.
Do something to me cause I'm not paying you to masturbate.

Smelly pirate hooker,
Please make my dreams come true.
Ride my boat, all night.
It'll make things alright.

Smelly pirate hooker,
You really don't smell that bad.
And you're not a hooker,
Because I didn't pay you.

So goodbye.

Have A Nice Shower
I'm reading your eyes like a book,
They tell the saddest story,
There's no happy ending for me
But there is for you.
As our conversation ends with a hello,
You tell me it was nice,
I kinda miss you a little bit since that night.

North Carolina don't wait for me,
It's okay for you to be happy.
I'll just sit here and wait patiently.
It's okay for me to feel crappy.

Do you have him tied up like you did with me?
How does he do it? I want to know his big secret to keep
The only thing that I ever wanted.
Go ahead tell yourself it's love,
A lie is a lie only if it makes you regret.

North Carolina don't wait for me,
It's okay for you to be happy.
I'll just sit here and wait patiently.
It's okay for me to feel crappy.
North Carolina don't wait for me,
It's okay for you.
I'll just sit here and cry quietly.
It's okay for me.

Her eyes tell a fairy tale (But there's no dragons)
Where the prince dies slowly (There's only a witch in the form of a beautiful girl)
As his heart's torn out
By the princess as she smiles at him (Oh, she smiles and it sparkles)
And whispers I'll do it again, (I'll do it oh yeah I'll do it)
But this time aim to win. (Win win win win..)

I'll build a sandcastle for you and me.
Every day,

Forevers not long enough for you to stay.

Yeah, You're Scene...In My Pants
This song is for the kids,
Who don't do nothing they just sit and stare at walls.
Some suck their thumbs, others like to call them dumb.
But they're not, it's called a relationship go try to have one.
This song is so not about me.
It's 'bout everything the world needs more of,
Emo kids and skies with fake clouds.

Just because I cry at night,
Doesn't mean I can't punch your face.
Just because my pants are too tight,
Doesn't mean I can't say goodbye.

I'm happy not sad always like people assume.
Don't assume it makes an ass out of you.
But not me cause I'm cool.
For the record, we're scared of sharp objects.
The Used even made a song about it.
Don't believe what you hear,
Or you're going to go extinct.

Just because I cry at night,
Doesn't mean I can't punch your face.
Just because my pants are too tight,
Doesn't mean I can't say goodbye.

I'm gonna bring it like it's been brought.
I'm gonna show you what I've got deep down these jeans.
Hardcore dancing through grocery stores.
You're going to want to be part of my scene.

I Pwn Newbs
Josh, how you been lately?
Been owning any newbs?
I just want to know how my best friends doing.
So maybe I could then do you.
And on a Friday night when things are scary.
You are there to technically hold me.

I count one by one, every word you say,
Which makes me giggle but no I'm not gay.
I'm just happy, oh yeah.
One week's too long please come back soon,
So maybe I could then hug you.
Cause when you're gone, gosh I get lonely.
Josh, you are my pimpest homie.

Those penguins you sung about are asking for you.
I can hear them all the way from the zoo.
They agree with me that you are modest.
And also that you're totally the hottest. Ever.
So everytime that I hear you sing,
I get some chills and I start to cream.

Josh, watcha doing lately?
Been rushing to some Rush? Duh!
I just wanna know if it's okay,
To spell out your name in the sand everyday.
I don't care if things are scary.
Cause you rawr them off cause you're hairy.

Basically, you're my super hero.
You can even divide by zero.
And you turn big and green and growl real loud
But only when you get punched by a cloud.
And you bust a flow when you walk down the street
Ready to throw down a mad beat.

Remember the times that we sang together?
We'll hopefully do it again this summer.
And I know I'm not a Star Trek fan,
But you're my star in the form of a man.
And tell Yvonne that she's a dummy,
For breaking your heart almost yearly.
All you need to do is this,
Break out your ninja suit and you'll never miss her again.
Cause you'll have me.
Less than 3.

Dude, Where's Chads Llama?
Hey you, over there.
Please give my Llama back.
Better hope he's not missing hair or I'll eat you.
Why would anyone jack a Llama?
Wouldn't you rather steal some pajamas?
His name is Bob, he is a slob.

Hey you people over there.
Stealing Llamas is bad.
Now give it back.
Or I'll be sad.

Can you hear me crying cause my Llama is gone.
You people are so mean.
I used to ride him across my lawn!
Why would anyone take a Llama?
Wouldn't you rather pratice using commas?
His name is Bob, but he can't turn a doorknob.

Hey you people over there.
Stealing Llamas is unconstitutional.
Now give it back.
Or I'll be sad.

Better give the Llama back.
Or I'll give you a spoon, that's way too big.
And then I'll beat you to the ground with a dancing banana.

And the banana's like:

One two three, who's jacking up Llamas?
It doesn't happen daily dawg,
But in a country like this? To a playa like this naw?
You must be tripping over shoe laces and shit.
MC Banana here to tell the truth, 
Now you fuckas sit back and check out my grove.
Yo, yeah. Bob this one's for you.

Bob was nice, never did anything wrong.
He checked out some hoes here and there just to have some fun.
He was young'n he's got so much to lose.
So if you got him just make sure to not give him booze 
He's kind, he's funny, and he ranks like a hoe
But if you catch him down the street he just throw you some doe.
You better give Chad's Llama back soon
Or bitches I might just come searchin for you..

Hey you people over there.
Stealing lamas is like really bad
Now give it back.

I'm Super Cereal
Girl, you got it going on.
But I don't mean that in a sexual way.
You're a cutie pie.
And I wanna hold you every single day.
It's a while since I've felt okay
But you're making it easier for me
So I'd like to tell you I love you.

Here's to kissing in trees at three in the morning.
Here's to you in my arms and me in yours.
You are my night sky, so just never say goodbye or I'll die.

I've finished puzzles that weren't as cute as you.
They had balloons so I gave em to you.
You're the sun shining bright,
You're the reason for blue eyes.
And it doesn't even make sense.
I'm super cereal so let's camp out in a tent
And make out on the weekends
But only if you want to.

Here's to kissing in trees at three in the morning.
Here's to you in my arms and me in yours.
You are my night sky, so just never say goodbye or I'll die.

A plane is flying by writing cute words in the clear blue sky.
"Hey babe, sup with you? Wanna go to the zoo?"

Here's to overly cliche emo songs:

I'll sleep so soft, so smooth, and so calm.
Tonight with you in my arms so long.
It's something I've been dreaming of.
I don't think I can thank you enough.

And every night, when I go to sleep.
I wake up and hope you're next to me.
And if I die before I wake,
At least I'll die the happiest in the world.

I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
But you'll forget me.

I Want A Broken Heart Tattoo
Do you see that star?
That's how far I am from you.
Cause I'm running away for good.
I'm already sick of you and it's only been 15 minutes.
She said.

I'm up to my neck in teen drama
Not only that, where's Chads Llama...still.
I've got a list of girls that wanna get with me
And another list that want to kill me, figuratively.
But I've got my eyes and heart set on a girl who's my world.
She's coming over now.

Doesn't it matter whether or not I'm cool?
Wouldn't it be nice if I had a pool?
And if I don't then just throw me out.
Don't have a cow.

I've got a note from the nurse,
That says I can miss class today.
She says my heart's so broken,
That I'll probably always be that way.
I should get a tattoo to always remember you
And all the stupid things I do
Whenever you would want me to.

I see that star.
That's how far you are from me.

Better Off
Yesterday was a sad day because you threw my heart away.
But today is a new day time to start living my life my own way.
No rules and no embarassment, way more sex and no harrassment.
I think, I'm better off on my own. I'm better off all alone.

Well I started thinking about us lately,
And just maybe you weren't the one who left me.
Maybe I decided to leave you first.
Because you're nothing but a big jerk!

I'm hating you and more lately.
I even stopped calling you baby.
Maybe, I'll decide to ignore you.
Just maybe, I'll be the one to forget to call you.

I think I'm gonna buy you a shirt, from hot topic you jerk. (That says I suck!)
I think I'm gonna prank call you at work. (And sell you a penis shaped Banana)
I think I'm gonna make my dog eat your homework. (Cause you're not too cool for school.)
I think I'm gonna cry and try to forget all the great times we had.

Car Wash
I woke up at 10:30 this morning,
'Cause I was supposed to meet you at the car wash.
And all I wanted was to see you in a bikini,
But we ended up making out in Johns lamborghini.
He opened up the door, (What?!)
He called you a whore. (Whore!)
We slammed it in his face,
And I did you on his leather suit case.

It was in front of Chillis and it was getting hot
As we fogged up the windows, oh oh!
And there were people standing all around,
Wondering what the hell was going down.
Then I heard someone yell
Get the hell out of the car!
And I rolled down the window,
Told them to shut their mouth before I freakin hit them with a bar of soap!

Making out with Kelly at the car wash,
It seems like yesterday.
We were both so young and stupid,
I didn't know what to say.
Told her she had really pretty eyes,
And I wanted to be with her.
She said I'm just so sorry,
But I just was using you.
I said that's alright,
Wanna do it again?

Whatever

Walking through the mall
Singing Hawthorne Heights every time I saw
(And I can't make it on my own!)
A silly scene kid, their silly scene friends
(And I can't make it on my own.)
Standing around in their band shirts.
But hey, gotta hand it to 'em
They get it krunk.

Now some sang back (Oh Oh)
Some called me whack (You're whack!)
So had a slight heart attack (Oh, I'm having a heart attack omg.)
Some called me a poser (You suck, die.)
Yeah, well fuck you loners (Oh, whatever.)
I bet I gave you a boner (mmmmmmm.)
Bet you thought I thought I was hardcore,
Sucka. 

Anyways, this song has nothing to do with that.
This songs about being alone. 

She doesn't understand,
She's all I need; she's all I am.
She's on my mind constantly
She doesn't understand, what's come over me...
Lately she's the only thing keeping me breathing
She's my everything, always and forever; words to remember.
Keep mumbling on and on cause I can't seem to forget her.
All alone, this ride home, keeps me warm since she's been gone.
I've been so cold, I've been lonely.
I've been longing for her to hold me.

So tight
Hold on for dear life
Forget the knives
And the nights
When you cried
'Cause you missed me,
Well I missed you too.
Just know that I'm still thinkin' about you.

Your eyes and lullabies still keep me up at night.
Your short soft sweet sad goodbye still keep me up at night.

Hey, You Dropped Your Purse
There's this girl I know and love,
I think about her about day but she doesn't notice me.
I rap about her in my songs and dream about her in my dreams,
She means everything to me.
Her eyes, her hair, her smell, her taste
I'm sure the sex is really great,
But that's not what I care about.
I have the biggest crush on her
And I just wanted her to know,
I'm always here for her.

Whoa, you know you mean everything to...
Whoa, cuddle me like you mean it.
Whoa, won't you walk me home tonight?
Whoa, hold my hand I'll hold you tight!

Yeah, I don't think she likes guys,
But hey, that's alright I can make her fall for me. 
Anyways I sound like a girl, and she's taller than me.
Her eyes, her hair, her smell, her taste
I'm sure the sex is really great,
But that's not what I care about.
I have the biggest crush on her
And I just wanted her to know,
I'm always here for her.

Crazy House
We were in the park holding hands,
Watching the birds fly by (Watchin' birds fly by)
But all of a sudden you punched me in the face!
So I dropped you off at the crazy house.

Went to visit you the very next day,
Said Honey, are you sure you're okay?
You said Yeah, my mom was just totally stressing me out
and I swear, I saw a bug crawling out of your mouth.
so I checked you out of the crazy house.

We were chilling at Jack in the Box, pimpin' those curly fries,
As I stared into your eyes 
But all of a sudden you threw your sprite in my face.
So I dropped you off at the crazy house.

Went to visit you a week or two later
Said Sweetie, are you sure that you're all better?
You said Yeah, it just tasted like shit,
and I swear, I was just throwing another stupid little fit
So I checked you out of the crazy house.

I was at the movies buying you candy before it started
And I loved the way your hair was parted
But I accidently bought you a Kit-Kat bar
That's when I decided you were taking this way too far.

You tried to punch me but you missed.
And I called you a fucking bitch.
Then I dropped myself off at the crazy house.

(Hey mom, what's sup?)

I Don't Care
Every time I wake up you are gone,
I'm broken now. What's the use to go on?
I know they say yeah, you'll find someone new.
But they don't know that I only want you.

Well, I don't care, I don't care
What I have to do to get you back.
I don't care, I don't care,
I'll change to what you want me to be.

All the nights that I cried myself to sleep.
I hugged my pillow, don't you feel a little bit?
What I feel cause I know it's killing me.
I swear to you that you are my everything.

I still sing your favorite songs.
I still play your favorite game.
I still wish you wanted me.
I still think that you're the same but I'm wrong.

The First Day of School
The first day of school, I noticed her
Walking in the hall with her hair down,
And her boobs out looking fine.
I said, Hey, what's up?
And she just slapped me.
I said, What the fuck? and just moved on.

That's the story of how I first met her,
And I was already in love.
That's the story of how my life got better,
She gave me a boner.

It just so happens that she was in every single class with me.
I could see her eyes rolling back,
And she sat in the back and enjoyed the show.
And I still could not be with her,
She was a hoe, but that's alright, that's okay
As long as she didn't sleep with every other guy but me.

And every time I'd ask her out,
She'd say no but I didnt give up! No I didn't give up.
I'll never give up.

That's the story of how I first met her I was in love.
And she wrote me a letter that said leave me alone...
And I said, No-oh-oh! I will not leave you alone.
And she called the cops.
And I said, uh oh spaghettios!

Summertime
In the summertime all we ever do is skate,
Eat, sleep, and sometimes we try to get laid.
Same routine every single day,
God, I love the summertime it's so great.

A couple ago my buddy Paul was hanging with some slut,
And she put his hand on her boob.
But he just pushed her off,
'Cause no one wants to have sex with a slut! 

I'll never forget the summertime,
When everything in my life was going fine.
Never forget the summertime,
Because I slept with your mom!

ABC, It's easy as 1,2,3.
I don't know the words, dododo.

In the summer time all we ever do is, fuck?!
What the hell do we do again? Oh yeah, nothing.
Sit around at the movies all day,
Even though we didn't a job to pay.

Yesterday I found 5 buck on the ground,
And danced around.
Then some old lady came up and hit me,
Over the head with her purse.
She took it away, she took my money away.

I'll never forget the summertime,
When everything in my life was going fine.
Never forget the summertime,
'Cause I was robbed by an old lady.

And we tried to sneak in,
But there were like 5 guards and,
Paul he just, just slapped him
And then we ran in, ran in.

Always
This town really sucks without you here and,
I'm down with every second you are gone so,
Come back I'm not ready to be alone.
And my bed is so blank and empty without you,
And I bet you really miss me too.
Why does everything have to be so hard?

Is it hot in here or is it just me?

Always, I am thinking about you and,
No way, will I ever forget you.
Today, I will sing a song about you.
Always, I will always think about you now.

Whoa hey, another guy you're talking to man,
He's gay forget about him cause he's not great.
He's not good enough for you.
And this distance can't even break apart our love,
Fuck him he can go have sex with a car.
You're great, you know what two plus two is now.

Can someone please get this guy a towel?

Always I will want to hold you,
So close and be the only one beside you.
I hope you think the same about me.
Always this song will be for you and,
Don't forget that I fucking love you.
Today I will masturbate thinking of,
You and only you.

Is it hot in here or is it just your mom?

Invisdabul Timmy
I have a friend his name is Timmy (Timmy)
And he comes when I am very lonely (I'm lonely at night)
And he's invisdabul (Invisdabul) like Paula Abdul
On American Idol, Episode 93.

He helps me get to sleep at night, 
He taught me how to ride a bike. 
And he's my best friend, he's my only friend.
Cause he's there when I need him.
My Invisdabul Timmy,
I should nominate him for an Emmy or two.

And that girl she's not here now,
She's with some guy over in the next town. 
But she's a poop head,
So I wont miss her in my bed.
Just maybe a widdle,
But I still have Timmy here with me
We can stay up all night, play Pokemon
We can sing each other a song about each other moms.
Even though I won't hear his, cause he's not here at all
I just wish I had a real Timmy to call my own 
But instead of a boy, maybe a girl
Who was so cool and awesome, who rocked my world.
And she'd never leave me, she'd always love me.
She'd always call me her honey and sweetie.
And I'd be happy, for at least just for once.
For a little little little little little little bit.

He helps me get to sleep at night
We never ever get in a fight
And he's my best friend, he's my only friend
Because he's there and he's ready to listen
My Invisdabul Timmy,
I should nominate him for an Emmy or two.

But Timmy won't last forever 
Even though he's in my head
When I get older I'll forget him,
Even though I love him so
I'll have to let go, 
And say goodbye. (Goodbye...)

But for now, I'll have to live with little Invisdabul Timmy.

Eff The Police
Goddamn, I sighed slowly
As the Cops pulled up, 
And started yelling at me.
Get down on the ground,
I heard one yell, lets get these punks!
And Oh shit, Jim was drunk.
He told the cop, to get down on his knees.

We weren't doing nutin'
We weren't hurting nutin'
I didn't know what to say
I didn't know if it was cause Jim was gay.
But I was like eh, I guess it's 'cause we're black. (yo)

So the cop took my board,
I was like, What the fuck this is whack!
And Jim jumped on his back,
And rode him like a Yak!
Yeehaww! Oh, I guess we're taking this way too far.
So I grabbed the board and ran,
And left the cop, naked, buried in the sand. 

That's what he deserves!
Shoulda fed him to the birds!
Jim's singing Fuck the Police.
As three other Cops pulls up, at least.
and we both looked at each other at the same time and we were like, shhhit.

So they said, Put your hands up!
Jim put his hands in my pants
And I, I just started to dance.
So they charged and tackled us down.
Took us to the station,
Told us to stop masturbatin'
And they let us go, but I think it was because Jim has sex with one of the gaurds or something....
I'm not sure what happened, but yeah.

So we got away, but without our boards,
So now me and Jim are really bored.
And we're really sad, so we wrote a song.
About how the police really suck and have small cocks. 
And there's a duck on top of his head,
But it's not dead,
It's shaking like a revolution!

Oh, and I know I just totally ripped off the Blood Brothers.
But uh, can the Blood Brothers do this shit!? I don't think so.

I Just Took A Crap and TheJon Came Out
My name is Jon,
I am a loser, a microphone abuser.
And I've never ever ever ever ever been laid.
And I'm an asshole and a pussy,
But at least I'm not that emosideproject guy.

I just took a crap and the Jon came out.
I just took a crap and the Jon came out of my butt.

And he's a poop head,
I bet he doesn't get much head.
And he lays alone in his bed at night.
But so do I except I cry but I've got something in my eye
It must be the Jon but I don't know if Jon's John is really long.

Someone call the cops cause Jon is soo hot.
Someone call the cops cause Jon is sooooooooooo not hot.

(okay, here's the sad part)

I still love him every day,
Even though he called me gay.
I still wrote him a song,
Even if he is a jerk sometimes.
I guess we all can be,
That's just reality.
Being really really mean to me,
Jon's being really mean to me.
But it's alright, it's alright.
Gonna keep on living through the night.
That's alright, it's alright.
Gonna keep singing all the night long.

Cause I just took a crap and the Jon came out.

Strawberry Shampoop
Blah blah blah she left me,
Alone to cry today.
And you say you're for me?
Well fuck this love just aint for me.
Maybe another day,
Sometimes it has to be this way.
Blah blah blah broken heart,
Another emo song for her.

Da da da da da da da da da, I'm in love with you.
Whoa.

Blah blah blah cried today,
For her I guess I'm just another,
Alone loser kid,
That probably never will get laid.
But who really gives a fuck?
Not me, and I'm not growing up.
Don't tell me to be happy,
Because it?s just impossible.

Blah blah blah what's that smell?
Strawberry shampoo, can't you tell?
On her it smells like shit;
On me it's the shiznit.
She said that I sucked hard,
And that my dick was small.
Well you can go to hell,
And you fucking smell.

Whoa man that was like a solo in a pop punk song

Catherine's Lullaby
Just don't let go, never let go.
(Fall in love)

Are you counting sheep as you fall asleep,
Or are you counting the ones who got away?
Do you miss him as much as he misses you,
And if you swear you love him, then you probably do.
It's only been five days short but thats way too long,
Since he's been in your arms.
His lovely eyes are always glued to you.

I'm counting dreams as I fall asleep,
Dreaming of things, I shouldn't be.
Cause I miss her as much as she misses me,
I still claim to her you're my everything.
It's only been one month long, but it wasn't my choice,
Since I've heard her voice.
But I swear, I won't be able to forget...

Dog
As I wake up the morning air breezes my face,
And I know just for once that I'm right in my place.
I look to the sky to embrace the suns rays
And birds sing on branches, while I'm going to make
This dream become reality.
I feel like nothing could go wrong today, today.

And she wakes beside me
I knew that she would,
Whoever knew being a dog was this good.
It's all that I've known,
But it's all that I need.
A master to love me and sing me to sleep.

As I wake up the morning wind slams in my face,
As I face the facts and realize my place.
I'm only a small part of everyday life.
And I wish I meant more, I wish I could fly..
This dreams still a dream,
Life's not what a seems.
I feel like everything has gone wrong today, today.

Every Song In The World
Arguments and confrontations never win,
When all I want is to hold your hand.
I'm lacking words to string together at the end
It's you and me, we'll make it you see.
It's you and me, we'll make it you see.

What am I supposed to do,
When every song in the world is about you and me.

And I'm not saying it's perfect.
I'm not feeding you lies.
But this is honest and this is living life.
Your smile it makes my day,
It makes everything fine.
And staring in your eyes,
Makes the stars come alive.

Patience, it takes time for love to sink in.

Hits my heart, it's just so frightening.
And it's taking it's toll.
And it's getting so cold,
Waiting for you.

Patience, losing someone isn't supposed to be fun.
Patience, it takes time us heal.

And there's more birds in the sky,
But you're the one who taught me to fly.
You help me breathe up in space.
And there's more fish in the sea,
But you're the only one that's for me.
You help me breathe under water.

Every now and then I get so lonely, I can't think at all.
Every now and then I get so lonely, I can't dream at all.

Catch two birds with one stone,
Catch two boys with one little lie,
Leave the other all alone.

"I love you more than the stars."
Even though you promised me,
You had to go.

Over You
It's like nothing I ever said, ever mattered
I never ever did make you happy...
But you never said a word about it then
Laying in the living room filling in the crosswords
I used to fill the answers in with "I love you"
Even when I knew it wasn't right, well I still do...

I hate remembering back to when
I was so happy then
When I would smile, smile
And you would stay awhile
But now you've decided to go
And yeah, I'll miss you so
But I hope I get over, over you.

Scribbling my poetry,
That's all about you and me,
And how we used to get along,
How I used to sing happy songs.
Laying in my bed staring at the ceiling,
I used to have all your pictures up,
I used to have your letters up that I read, well I still do...

Goodbyes and train rides.
Smooth moves and previews,
Long nights and secrets.

Is my pillow and blanket so I hold them to forget
What you used to feel like,
What you used to taste like,
What it used to be like to have someone love you back,

Long flights and plane rides.
On board moves and previews.
Long fights and silence.

Lately
Lately I've been staying up past 1:30
Listening to Dashboard Confessional.
Every songs so slow.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be.

You tell me to go to sleep,
Dear, aren't you tired?
I said yeah I really am,
But I'd rather stay here with you.
But what did you care,
Shrug me off your shoulders.
It's not like I matter.
It's not like I have feelings, anyway..

Lately, I've been comtemplating my future.
I wonder who'll love me,
I wonder who'll break me apart like you did and do.
And I ask myself
Is it really worth it?
Is she still worth it?
Yeah, she's still worth it.
After all she's put me through, yeah she's still worth it.

Lately I've been staying up past 1:30
Listening to Dashboard Confessional.
Every songs so slow.
It reminds me of you and the way we used to be.
And how you once loved me.
When you loved me.
When did you love me?
Lately I've been staying up past 1:30
Listening to Dashboard Confessional.
And crying my fucking eyes out.
So now you know.
Lately I've been staying up all night.
I can never sleep I'm scared I'll dream of you.

Tonight I'm sure I'll stay up past 1:30
Listening to the same old songs,
Because every one's slow and sad.
It reminds me of you,
And the way we used to be.

You're The Best I'll Ever Have
There was a boy,
He loved her more than anything in the world.
She looks at him with her pretty eyes,
How could he even resist a smile?
I guess he couldn't.

And I count the days,
And I count the hours.
But tonight I'll be right here,
And I do remember,
Yes, I do remember,
How it feels to be in love to be in love.

And the boy looks the girl deep in the eyes,
With a huge grin on his face.
He smiles and says, "You're the best that I'll ever have."
I'll ever have.
I'll never have.

Is this what you wanted?
Is this what you needed?
You left me to cry, you left me bleeding.
Is this what you hoped for?
What ever happened to forever?

Was I what you wanted?
Was I what you needed?
I guess not since you left me so easily.
Was I what you hoped for?
Was I good enough for you?

So Perfect
Sun shining behind you,
You look like an angel.
Your voice is pretty like you.
We're perfectly drawn out together.
Perfectly pictured I grab you and swing you around.

Whoever said that nobody's perfect was wrong.
You are, oh. You are.
Whoever said that nobody's perfect was wrong.
You are, oh. You are.

You always say the right thing,
When everythings wrong.
Your eyes sparkle like water.
We're perfectly perfect for each other.
Perfectly pictured I tell you I am in love.

Whoever said that nobody's perfect was wrong.
You are, oh. You are.
Whoever said that nobody's perfect was wrong.
You are, oh. You are.

You are to me, you're my everything.
And I wouldn't trade you for the world.
You are to me, you're my everything, oh.
So believe me when I say you're perfect.
Oh, you're perfect.

I Hope You Know, I Care More Than I Could Ever Show..
I know it's hard to breathe now,
Cause it keeps playing in your head.
And I know it's hard to let it go,
But eventually everything has to end.

It's not as hard for me as it is for you,
But we'll help you make it through.
Instead of being sad lets just clap our hands and dance.

Be happy you're alive and try to feel inside,
I hope you know I care more than I could ever show,
But I'll try to let you know.

And I have lost someone before,
So I know how it feels.
aAnd all that I could do was break down,
I was overcome with tears.

It wasnt as hard for you as it was for me,
But you helped me make it through.
Instead of being sad we just sang a song and danced.
I couldnt help but smile.

Be happy you're alive and try to feel inside,
I hope you know I care more than I could ever show,
But I'll try to let you know.

....And They Lived Happily Ever After
There was a gentle wave of sadness that swept across the land.
And it waited until the dry years had passed. 
Then hit me like a flood and knocked me off my feet.
But you were there to catch me.

I was drowning neck deep in pity when I reached out for your hand,
Ad you accepted with such generosity.
And I asked you so kindly to pull me from this prison,
That had locked me up without meaning. (Oh yes, you did.)

The trees they swayed from side to side and our love was satisfied.
And if you ask me girl you'd get a straight honest answer that we could last forever.

Yeah, we could. We could last forever.
Love's not that far away.

Lala lalalalala lala lalalalalala

The trees they swayed from side to side and our love was satisfied.
And if you ask me girl you'd get a straight honest answer that we could last forever.

The Daydream Impression
You never know what's gonna happen you just hoping that everything's right.
You never can tell who's a good person, whos gonna help you, or whos gonna fight.
But being nice will get you rewarded and being a fool will only bring trouble.
So just be grateful for what you've got, for what you don't have, and for what you want.

You never even played along.

You never know whos telling the truth, whos telling you wrong, or telling you lies.
You never can tell if she will call back when she slips out in the middle of the night.
And I can hear is blah blah blah and all I can hear is blah blah blah.
So just be grateful for what you've got, for what you don't have, and for what you want.
You never need me like I needed you see what breaking a heart does to you?
It's driving me crazy it's making you see that what you did was wrong to me.

It's not fair to be here and have to face this another year.
And it only gets colder now, only gets farther from the truth.
But we'll hope and we'll dream of the things we don't need.
And I'll applaud when your dreams don't come true.

You never even played along.

Colorful kill is taking control of everything I am and everything I own.
I think of her all day and all night even though was she has done isn't right.
See what breaking my heart does to me it driving me crazy it's making you see...
So just be grateful for what you've got, for what you don't have, and for what you want.
You never know whos telling the truth, whos telling you wrong, and telling you lies.
You never can tell if she will call back when she slips out in the middle of the night.
All I can say is sorry I'm wrong and I can hear is sorry I'm gone.

You never even played along.

It's not fair to be here and have to face this another year.
And it only gets colder now, only gets farther from the truth.
But we'll hope and we'll dream of the things we don't need.
And I'll cheer when your dreams don't come true.

You never even played along.

I Want To Sleep, So I Can Dream Of You
I had a dream that I was on a boat,
In the middle of the ocean I was all alone.
I had a dream that I was flying through the clouds,
But I was hit by a plane and splashed into the ground.
I had a dream that you loved me,
But it was just a dream.
It could never come true.

I had a dream that I was on a shooting star,
In the sky so up above I was all alone.
I had a dream I was a butterfly,
Inside my stomach when I talk to you.
I had a dream that you missed me,
But it was just a dream.
It could never come true.

I had a dream where we had the perfect day,
Story telling, lots of laughing, you would say,
I love you more than anything,
And if you'd say it back I promise we can be...
And then I woke up,
It was just a dream.
But it might, it just might,
Who knows it might, it might,
Oh it could, it might, come true.
It might be the last thing I ever do.

I had a dream we would lay there in the sun,
Just giggling, me and you all alone.
I had a dream where I would write you lots of songs.
And you looked up at me and sang the words you knew:
"I love you more than anything that I have ever loved."
You're a dream, but you're real.

Letters Between Lovers
[Girl]
Dear Lover,
I'm sorry to do it like this but we're through.
I'm sick of you, I can't stand you anymore. 
I can't stand your half-assed fake smile.
I can't stand you pressing your body against mine.
I can't stand the taste of your lips.
I can't even stand hearing you say I love you,
And I can't stand myself saying it. 
I can't stand the sound of your voice.
I don't even know how we even made it this far, 
Because truthfully, if I was to go back in time,
I never would have even been with you in the first place.
All the nights I wasted on you were worthless.
You should know now, that you're worthless.
You're nothing but a stupid boy, who only thinks about himself. 
Who makes stupid promises that he doesn't keep.
Stupid lies that are built to make you feel good,
And they do but only for the split second until you 
Find out they were lies and he only did it to make himself feel better.
You know it's too good to be true.
Love's too good to be true.
I hope you burn in hell.

[Boy]
Dear Honey,
I am so sorry. You know, you KNOW that.
You know that I'm sorry you just wont let yourself admit it. 
I never meant anything I did to hurt you. None of it...
No one is perfect, especially me. But I know you are.
I know you are, you're perfect.
I know you can't stand me babe, but right now
I can't stand myself either and I'll never forgive myself,
So I don't expect you too. But I'm gonna ask.
But if I was to back in time, I never would have made that
Stupid mistake that I made. I never would have kissed her.
I am just a stupid boy but I am a stupid boy you once loved.
You once hugged and kissed and held so close.
I never would have made you feel like you were just a toy.
Because sweetie, you are everything in the world to me.
You are everything to me honey, every single thing.
And I swear that to you.
I can't lose you, please. Please I'm begging you.
I'm begging you honey, please take me back.
I'm just so sorry. I can't lose you..
I can't lose everything that I've ever loved.
Please don't. I can't lose you.

It's Always The Quiet Calm Nights When The Stars Shine Almost As Bright As She Does...
It was a quiet calm night when you stepped on my porch.
Tender and kind and you looked to the sky.
With a note in your hand that was signed in pink pen.
Your bangs hanging down like they always did.
And I waited inside with that smile on my face,
My fists clenched so tight my heart started to race.
As I waited for the doorbell to ring,
So I could tell you you're my everything.
So then you finally did and I got up real slow
I moved towards the door so you wouldn't go.
I looked you in the eyes and took a deep breath,
You handed me the note I commented on your dress.
I said honey,you're so cute I just wanted you to know,
That I've always felt this way it's just so hard to show.
Every time you say I love you, every time you laugh,
I really think that we could last.
So I opened the note when you stood there so brave.
It said hush I'm not cute you're just really insane.
And I smiled but I couldn't think of what to say,
Because if I said the wrong thing you might not want to stay.
So I just took your hand and put it in mine,
You didn't seem to mind, no you didn't seem to mind.
I pulled you real close, so you couldn't get away,
And I said darling you're cute no matter what you say.
And you looked up me and smiled and said okay.
Okay.

Motionless
Me and you sitting motionless under the sun.
So engaged in our love.
Then you scootched over slowly towards me.
But I didn't hold back my smile.
No, I never hold back my smile.
I stare motionless, in awe of your perfection, in my love.

Almost everyone believes loves just a fling
But holding hands, darling, it's the real thing.
At least in my heart it's tangible and genuine.
And even forever wouldn't be long enough. 
As you kissed my cheek with your soft cute lips
And that puppy dog look in your eyes
Lying motionless on my lap in your love.

Then you started pouting.
Oh honey, that was so cute when you stared pouting.
I just sat there glaring into your eyes.
I blinked a couple of times but never spoke a word
Because you knew that I knew you knew what I was thinking,
You knew what I was feeling, I could see it in your smile.

It's funny how much I can mean to you.
It's cute how much you mean to me.
 Honey, you mean the world to me,
You're my everything; you're my all
You said softly, in barely a whisper. 
And it was then under the sun when I turned to you
And told you, sweetie, I wanna to be with you forever.

My eyes woke as I lay motionless in the dark.
In awe of your perfection,
With my affection; dreaming of our love.

Forever and More
Just one more day with you I'd say,
Anything to make you stay.
You know I love you, you know you make me,
The happiest person there ever will be.

Last night I had the bestest dream,
It involved you and me.
Swimming, and singing, and cuddling, forever and more.
And then you looked at me with those eyes,
And a smile that could almost make me die.
You took my hand and held it, forever and more.

Just one more day with you I'd say,
Anything to make you stay.
You know I love you, you know you make me,
The happiest person there ever will be.

Today I had the bestest time,
You were always on my mind.
Making me sigh and daydream, forever and more.
And then I thought of that pretty smile,
The one that always makes me wild.
And I'm happy and will be, forever and more.

Just one more day with you I'd say anything at all.
Just one more day with you I'd say I love you forever and more.

Letters Between Lovers: Part 2
[Girl]
Dear Lover,
Every now and then someone comes along.
Someone who changes your life completely.
Someone who changes your perspective on what love is and what life is.
And for me that person was you.
I love how you say I love you so much and you mean it everytime.
I love how I can hold you tight all night long when you sleep in my bed,
And we both smile until our cheeks hurt.
I love your cute little voice and when it breaks.
I love your smile and those puppy dog eyes.
I love spending every second of my day with you.
And I want to forever, and when I say forever I mean forever.
And I can't make you any better because perfection is always a step away from ok.
I once thought that love was too good to be true,
But then slowly I open my eyes to you and I realized that it isn't.

[Boy]
Dear Honey, 
I love you and I never have to hold back my smile.
I'll never have to hold back my smile.
I'd love to describe how I feel for you,
But the dictionary didn't have strong enough words.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words,
I'm not nearly good enough at drawing.
So you'll just have to trust me, you'll just have to believe me.
When I say that you're the bestI'll ever have
Honey, you're the best that I'll ever have.
And all the promises that I made you,
I'll never break. Sweetie, I'd never break them. 
I'd never break your heart like those other stupid boys.
I just love you so much
You're just way too perfect honey.
We're perfect together.
We're so perfect together.
You don't even know.
And I just wanted to let you know,
Since you walked into my life it hasnt been better.

All You Ever Need (To Get You By)
Everything you want is gone.
And all you needed for so long was me.
To hang around and be your only one.
I'm the only thing you'll ever need,
I am the scab that you pick off your knees.
But it just sits and lingers,
It grows back and hurts you ten times more.

All you ever need is love.
All you ever need is love to get you by. (To get you)
All you ever need to get you.

I'm like the days that always seemed so long.
They always seem to never end.
It reminds me of the dream I had last night,
The one where you would cling to me.
And I would never let you fall.
No matter how much I wanted to let go and believe me 
I wanted to let go.

All you ever need is love.
All you ever need is love to get you by. (To get you)
All you ever need to get you.

All you ever need is love
All you ever need is love
To get you to get you.
To get you to get you.
All you ever need is love
(Why don't you let go?)
All you ever need is love
(Why did you let go?)
To get you to get you.
(Why don't you let go?)
To get you to get you.
(Why did you let go?)

All you ever need is love.
All you ever need is love to get you by. (To get you)
All you ever need to get you.

My List of 15 Things To Avoid This February and 3 New Ways To Hurt You
I painted all the stars the colors of your eyes,
In hopes I'd make through tonight.
You always say,
Too bad you're not sensitive like him.
Too bad your eyes don't compare to his.

I'd rather watch the sunrise then watch myself melt into your eyes.
I'd rather fall with the moon then fall in love with you.

Here's my list of 15 things to avoid this february and 3 new ways to hurt you.
I wrote them down on a napkin,
That's laying somewhere around this town.
I wrote your name and address on it,
In hopes someone would deliver it to you for me.
I'm scared to see the way you react.

Have you ever let a balloon drift away and later said I wish I would of attached myself to it?
I let myself fall away from you.
This red room is painted with white roses and draped in black curtains,
It's so much more beautiful without your eyes to block the sight.

I Wouldn't Trade This for the World
Everyday, I wake up I'm in love with you so much,
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
Slip on my jeans, tie my shoes, get in my car; I'm off to see you.
It's a fairy tale that's come to life: you're the princess and I'm the prince.
And I can't believe that you feel the same for me,
But you do, but you do.
Take my hand and grasp it tight, hold me all through the night.

I said I wanna spend forever with you,
Whatever happens we can get through.
I am yours and you are mine,
For now and until the end of time.
I never knew I could be so happy,
Thank you for all that's happened.
And I just want you to know,
I wouldn't trade this for the world.

Do I dare to say the three words I love you?
I want to but I'm scared of what it could mean.
What if you don't like me back?
And would you ever say it too, maybe so maybe not.
Ok I'll dare, I said it now I hope you're happy.
Just let it slip out of my mouth.
Oh, you love me too? I'm so happy I could die.
I think my heart just skipped a beat.
But instead of dying I hold you tight, I love you.

I've never felt this much for anyone.

Happier days and for us to live on.

We're better than friends so don't try to pull that line.
I won't take no for an answer.

But perfect for me isn't perfect for you.

Just give me a chance, I'll give it my all.
And you won't have to worry about being alone.

And there's a place where angels sing, oh.

This Pink Bracelet Made Me Stay
This bracelet you gave me reminds me of hard times
When crying knocked the wind clear out of me. 
I said I'll never feel better no, I'll never feel better.
I'll never feel better no, I'll never feel better.

I'm staying up later since you said you would call me,
But it's been two hours past the time that you promised me.
It's all been going down hill since early last week.
You've broken your promise so I'm breaking my promise too.

But it doesnt matter much.
I can ignore it I can forgive you.
But can you say sorry and do you mean it?
Do I love you for nothing?
Do I love you for nothing?

I just don't understand you girl it's hard to believe
That everything I've done for you is not what you need.
But I guess that I'll move on I guess I can live.
It's you I can't handle now, it's you I can't handle now.

But it doesnt matter much.
I can ignore it I can forgive you.
But will you say sorry and will you mean it?
Do I love you for nothing?
Do I love you for nothing?

But it doesnt matter much.
I can ignore you I can forget you.
I can say sorry and yes I'll mean it.
Do I love you for nothing?
Do I love you for nothing?

This bracelet you gave me reminds me of hard times
When crying knocked the wind clear out of me. 
I said I'll never feel better no, I'll never feel better.

Desperation in A-minor
Late that night on Wednesday,
You said you were somebody's girl.
But it came as no surprise,
I was never meant to rule the world.
All I ever wanted was the truth,
And nothing else so I didn't yell.
No, I didn't yell.

I'm locking my door and I'm crying my eyes out.
Baby, I'm crying my eyes out.
No, I won't get to sleep tonight.
And try not to be so mean to that next unlucky guy
I'm crying my eyes out.
Baby, I'm crying my eyes out.

You said you'd never hurt me yeah that was your first lie.
I assumed you really loved me,
But I'm just another fool.
And I handed you my heart,
And you ignored my generosity.
But I could never take it back.
No, I will never take it back.

I'm locking my door and I'm crying my eyes out.
Baby, I'm crying my eyes out.
No, I won't get to sleep tonight.
And try not to be so mean to that next unlucky guy.
So he won't have to cry so much,
And he can get to sleep at night.

I'm sick of this.
I'm sick of truth.
I'm sick of love.
I'm sick of trying.
I'm sick of life.
I'm sick of trust.
I'm sick of hope.
And I'm sick of you.
Yeah, it hurts too much.

Two Little Crayons Fell in Love
Two crayons sat upon a bed,
One was green the other red.
The sheets were blue to set the mood,
The silly crayons name was Fred.
He told her that he was in love,
Outside the window, singing doves
Sewed and pressed on bright blue sky,
And crawling were two lady bugs.
He nudged her with a giggle,
She smiled and scootched in a little.
If she had a hand, he would grasp,
He gave her a purple skittle.
He poked his girl and lent a hug,
As they rolled around ontop a rug.
Two little crayons fell in love, 
Two little crayons fell in love.

It was the same for you and me,
Curled and hunched under a tree
The shade blocked the sun so hot,
My hands were in your pocket
I licked my lips I could taste it now,
The love for you left me in awe
Two little kids fell in love, 
Two little kids fell in love.

Oh, I fell in love with you.
It wasn't something I was supposed to do,
But I fell in love with you.

The wrappers wrapped them up so tight, 
And held them all throughout the night.
Colors mixed to form a new.
Crayons remind me of you.
He poked his girl and lent a hug,
As they rolled around ontop a rug.
Two little crayons fell in love,
Two little crayons fell in love.

Oh, I fell in love with you.
It wasn't something I was supposed to do,
But I fell in love with you.

And now they fall asleep together, 
Each one holding each other.
Two little crayons fell in love,
Two little crayons fell in love.

Thank You
You change my world without a word.
You make fishes jump in a pond.
You make dying trees begin to grow.
You change my day with your smile.
You take care of every child.
You take the fields and make them grow a bright bright green.
You make it rain when the sun is hot.
You make it snow when it is not.
You take my shady blues away from me.

If I knew where I was going and caught you before you went.
If I lived in New York City and had the money I had spent.
If my life line changed and I was rearranged,
I'd thank you.

If I knew what I was missing, if I really didn't care.
If for once I'd follow through and never run of scared.
If I could touch you, not worry about my hurt,
I'd thank you.

If I knew where I was going and caught you before you went.
If I lived in New York City and had the money I had spent.

I'd like to thank you for what you've done.
I hope that you'll remember me as your shining sun.
Cause I need you as much as you need me.
Thank you, thank you.

Songbirds
The swingsets swinging and the songbirds singing,
And I can't help remember but when we sat there together.
With your legs rocking back and forth and toes scrunching up.
My hand in your hand as you looked up and said
Baby, I love you like no one loves anything.
Take me forever just take me forever.
We'll be together, as long as I'm yours I promise it'll all be alright.

I said sweetie don't worry I'm already yours and nothing can come between us.
With the songbirds singing I started dancing and you couldn't help but smile at me.
The laughter and joy brought us together.
The love for each other kept us forever.
I walked you home even though the weather was unsure of what it might be.

When we arrived at your house you asked me to come in,
And I was so nervous I tried keeping my distance.
With trembling fingers when you moved up to kiss me I think for a second it killed me.
I gave you a flower completely in bloom,
You started dancing didn't stop till you were tired.
And I couldn't help but smile and we laid on your bed and we both feel asleep together.
The sunlight played readily across your face,
The swingset swinging and the songbirds still singing.

The Jaded Diary
This diary has run out of pages,
Because on each and every line I had written your name.
But I've crossed out every single one.
The pages are torn and so is my heart but I still look at it every night,
To remind me never to make the same mistake again.

And writing a song would keep me awake,
Cause I'm scared I'll dream of you.
And writing a song would keep me awake,
Cause I'm scared I'll dream of you.

The ink bleeding through the paper portrays a Bleeding Heart's Melody.
So I crumble up this chapter of my life cause it needs to be forgotten.
I wish it was that easy.
Oh, if only it were that easy...

And writing a song would keep me awake,
Cause I'm scared I'll dream of you.
And writing a song would keep me awake,
Cause I'm scared I'll dream of you.

I'll never feel better.

Another Broken Heart
Another night without you,
I have spent alone again.
Another day without you and I'd cry.
I swear, I'll try to be right there.
Beside you, by your side.

Give me one last chance,
Let me take this last dance.
For a while, I'll see you smile.
Make you feel inside,
That feeling you can't hide.

As I lay in bed thoughts of you,
Run through my head.
I take a look you,
And it feels as if I can fly.

Round and round we turn,
My heart you let it burn.
What happened to my head,
Feels just like I'm dead.

Until I Speak Your Name
Remember the memories drawn from long ago?
This can't be what you're looking for;
Only you consume my mind,
I think about you all the time.
This feeling in my heart,
I never get when we're apart.
I can't go on like this.
A symphony your broken promise I have missed.

Tomorrow won't bring sunshine,
The frowns will still remain.
Hiding in a sea of broken hearts,
Until I speak your name.

It feels like I've missed you
But when you're gone there?s nothing else I can do.
You thought I might be worn out by now.
Who knows what I'm hiding from.
It was imagined out of boredom,
So again you're left alone.

Tomorrow there's a small shine of ray.
Still it looks better than todays.
I peak out of my blackened house
Maybe I'll get a peak of you, I hope I do.
(Feels like I'm yours..well I was.)

Today there's finally sunshine,
A smile on your face.
You'll hold my hand while I'm sitting here,
Until I speak his name.
    top

Blue Skies
The movie's barley loud enough,
I'd rather hear your voice.
This silence illuminates my heart.
Lying arm and arm upon my couch
Thinking of things I could say to you;
The day is new.
I wish you would sing to me,
It seems like forever since you have.
We'll make this last forever, don't let this die.
Cause that would make me sad.

For this moment I'll lay down and smile.
Time cannot be stopped.
At least, I know I tried.
You looked up and glanced at me,
I was nervous, you smiled.
Moments aren't meant to last so long,
Or feel so well now.

You closed the gap between us,
And put your hands in mine.
I really can't believe this is happening to me.
You're too good for me.
I'm not made to be this happy.

But that's all you've ever made me.
You brushed the hair out of your face,
And I could see your beautiful eyes.
Now as I embrace you, you lean on me
To remind me why I feel the way I do.

So lets sit back and watch this movie played in reverse.
'Cause I only feel like watching you.
And I'll make sure to keep my arms around you.

Friends, Lies
You always thought you'd get away with everything you did.
The last breath you took won't be enough.
You took what little trust I had,
Threw it on the floor and used it against me again.
I said this never would have happened like it did.
And I tired to get my way out of this.
Never should have been this way again.

And if you're walking through the rain,
I hope you slip and fall tonight.
And when you slip on something sharp,
Don't come crying back to me.

Phone calls I wish I could forget
I wish I could take back this suffering you gave me
I know you did
Lies and deciet had you thinking less of me.
Don't tell me things I don't wanna hear
Just like you did when we met.
And don't ever forget, i'm just a broken boy.

Tonight is the Last Night
Last night I cried myself to sleep
Fearing that we wouldn't meet again
I lost you once but never again
Oh, I think you've changed

I wish you would talk to me,
But tonight is the last night.

I fell for you I don't think you ever knew

I don't think of you like I used too
You'll find someone new

I wish you would talk to me,
But tonight is the last night.

Broken heart, broken dreams
I'm a broken boy now it seems.
Broken heart, broken dreams
And we're lost again.

Last night I cried myself to sleep,
I'm thinking about how it would hurt me.
I dreamt of you,you said goodbye.
I'm a broken boy so I know that tonight is the last night.

Speak In Whispers
I'll try to stop you from knowing that my eyes see through you.
I drop down beneath this wooden floor, you are memory.
I'm left resigating my mistakes of you this has dragged on long enough
Why am I still here I just don't have the strength to leave.

You said you couldn't stand my thoughts,
They were too ideal your mind.

We're all born for the same fate within this chorus we fake.
I'll stop still left standing here alone this is our last song.
Oh no, it's not the end I'm just tired of this.
Being loss doesnt make any since at all.

You said you couldn't stand my thoughts,
They were too ideal your mind.
But don't be so upset I'll speak in whispers.
And I'm not even yours; but you never stopped to think,
As your bad habits keep on coming back, I'll just speak in whispers.

Lonely As The Sun
I'm lonely as the sun, catching nothing much for fun.
I'm just a pleasured moment spent in loneliness.
I'm wailing westward winds sending messages you sent,
Waiting only for the sounds of passer bys.

What will I do if they catch me with you?
Will they take you away?
How can I feel when there's nothing left that's real,
Only sounds played with once in the sand.
I'm lonely as the sun.

Your eyes can tell a tale about happiness that failed,
And drops of water wasted over me.
But here I am to say that there is a coming day,
Where the happiness I've kept inside will show.

I'm lonely as the sun.
I'm lonely as the moon.
I'm lonely as the stars.
I'm lonely as you with me.

Mist of All This Sin
Love seems so long ago that I can't get it back again.
I'm like searching for a little light in the mist of all this sin.
Fools say a broken heart's what this word can amend.
What people take away in the mist of all this sin

I loved you till your dying day.
And my love to you I'd send.
But it's no good for me to live,
In the mist of all this sin.

Writing Songs
High up on a hillside far away from here,
I watched my our love fall apart from jealousy and fear.
All you had to tell me all you had to say,
Is that you can't be with me.
I'm just too far away, away.

I know that I did love you,
I guess I always will.
You're too busy living life to ever just stand still
And I'm too busy writing songs to make you fall in love with me.

Way up in the air in castles in the sky,
Fresh air clouds are blue and birds are free to roam and fly.
Your hair is beautiful just like yesterday.
But you won't be with me, your love faded away.

I know that I did love you,
I know I always will.
You're too busy living life to ever just stand still
And I'm too busy writing songs to make you fall in love with me.

Sad Song
Another sad song plays today
Days never seem to go my way
I?m dead last again; in last place,
Wishing I could see your face.
Using the same old lines over again,
Wishing this pain finally end.
Trying to find a way out of this world,
Then again you're not the only girl for me.

Singing my heart out tonight 
Because of this sad song
I wrote for you last night
I swear I'll never say the same things again,
And I know I'll never be the same without you here.
But you know I can live on without you by my side.
So you won't see me again, again.

I'm thinking of things that I could do.
I spend my nights feeling blue.
Listening to a mix tape tonight,
Just like I did last night.
Outside crying without you,
But what else am I supposed to do, to do?

Singing my heart out tonight.
Because of this sad song,
I wrote for you last night.
I swear I'll never say your name again.
I know I swear I'll never be the same without you here,
But I wish you were right here by my side,
So I'd be with you, with you.

Outside it's a blue sky today.
But right when I look outside,
It suddenly turns grey.
But I swear I'll never be sad again you know,
And I'll try to live my life again without you here.
I'm acting like a new me and I don't care what you say.
I'll act like I'm happy today.
The sad song is almost gone, it's gone.

Floating
In dreams I have I feel you so are you even real?
I want so much to show you that I long so bad to hold you.
I can't say how I feel the words just will not spill.
I've tried so much to hold you I mumbled words behind you.
I played with your hair in class why wouldn't I just ask?
Cause I know you feel the same every night you say my name.

How I feel to today:
You can't imagine the words I'd say.
To make you feel like you're floating atop the world.

Even though I wrote this song I try to play along,
And act like you're not there it's so hard not to care.
So how are you good at it when I say hi you throw a fit.
I've tired so hard to hold you maybe this song will show you.

How I feel to today:
You can't imagine the words I'd say.
To make you feel like you're floating atop the world.

I know you cared for me.
I know you're right for me.
But no matter how hard I try all I do is cry.

How I feel to today:
You can't imagine the words I'd say.
To make you feel like you're floating atop the world.

For Tonight
I'm walking through these dark halls tonight.
Hoping that I might find you in the corner,
Curled in a ball hiding your eyes from the world.
Wearing all black just like your soul.

I'm wanting to see you again.
Well, in my dreams I do.
And every waking moment I spend I wish I was with you.
So why is it that you don't wish for me?

Like I do for you.

Wanting to be with you tonight,
But you aren't right by my side.
And you can't see as well as I do.
You're the only clue in the world that keeps me alive
So stand right by my side at least for tonight.

Holding your hand last night.
I'm wishing that I might.
This could be my last chance,
To write a song for you.

Like I do for you.

Walking on the Beach
Walking along the coast you smile the most.
Out of the millions of people there you have the best hair.
And your cute little smile I'll see for a while.
And your cute little face that makes my heart race.
I only love you so what should I do?
As the sky is turning blue and I love you.

Walking on the beach your smile I try to reach.
I'll hold you close to me.
Oh, baby can't you see?

A seagull just fly by and it pooped in my eye.
And you stood laughing by.
Your smile it makes me die.

Walking on the beach your smile I try to reach.
I'll hold you close to me.
Oh, baby can you see?

When I have the worst days you walk my way.
It all suddenly goes away cause I love you.

Walking on the beach your smile I'll try to reach.
I'll hold you close to me.
Oh, baby can't you see?
Walking on the beach your smile I finally reach.
I'll hold you close to me.
Oh, baby can you see?

Untitled
You sit on the corner laughing at my demise.
A knife gone's through my heart,
But it's bleeding through your eyes.

There is no heart to break,
So you can't see how I feel.
Why can't you just take us away from here?

Don't you hear me crying out to you?
Don't you see there's nothing else to do?
With broken memories of this lonely life,
I just hope that you'll be here tonight.

My shoe laces torn again tonight,
It's another reason for a stupid fight.
Don't you know I only cared for you?
Now what the hell am I going to do.

I let a sigh out from my lonely heart
Cause I can't take it when we're apart.
Take my hand again will you please?
Or kiss me goodbye as I beg and plea.

Can't you hear me crying these tears?
Can't your feel me I'm right by you.
Can't you hear me crying these tears.
Can't you feel me now?

Alone As Well As Gone
Breathe in breathe out.
You're not alone but I'm alone tonight.
I wish this all would end right now so I might smile again.
Don't say a word I can read your mind.
And it's ok for you to leave.

Rip my heart out of my chest.
Leave a blood stain on the ground for others to see.
For the next girl to do the same to me.
Just say you're sorry and move on,
And leave me alone I'll give you this song.

I'm not like them, I'm not like him.
I'm a failure in everyone's eyes.
Is there a reason to live? I guess it's part of being a kid.
(I'm alone as well as gone; you're gone.)
No wonder we all wish we were grown up, oh.
The question I'll always ask; why couldn?t we just last?
Cause even the most blue skies must turn grey.

Rip my heart out of my chest.
Leave a blood stain on the ground for others to see.
For the next girl to do the same to me.
Just say you're sorry and move on,
And leave me alone I'll give you this song.

Silence
Silence calls out now,
You our left memories in the dust to rot.
A flower bloomed today but it was deemed useless and thrown away.

It's been here all along.
It's the reason that I wrote this song.
Even still the night goes on.
Well here it is again;
That familiar lonely feeling when you know it's all going to end.
If not right now then tomorrow.

Can't you hear me when I say it's over?
Won't you whisper the truth in my ear?
Cause we both know that it's over.
I couldn't have loved you anyway.

I'm sick of this pain.
I'm so sick of screaming your name.
I'll leave you alone I won't even ask for a ride home.
Not right now not forever.

Can't you hear me when I say it's over?
Won't you whisper the truth in my ear?
Cause we both know that it's over.
I couldn't have loved you anyway.

Just give me silence so I can end this all right now,
Or will the sun rise tomorrow just to bring me down again.

Forever
You're so close to me yet you're so far away.
You're everywhere I am and every single thing I want to be.
Today I was staring up at the clouds and I swear I saw your face brushing against mine.

When I look out my window and stare at the stars,
I dream of you being with me I'm too afraid to tell you.
You're too shy to ask me but I love you so much that I can't breathe.

If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I want you to be with me forever.

If you left tomorrow without taking me I'd cry forever eternally.
I know you know that I think of you this way.
I love you more than life itself I want you to stay.

If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I want you to be with me forever.

If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I want you to be with me forever.
If I ask you to take my hand what would you say?
I'm sorry but I can't stay forever.

Curl up and Die
I don't know what to do now that I've lost you.
I can't hardly breathe, I won't get any sleep.
I'll curl up and die tonight if you let go.
Feeling like this I guess you'll never know.

I use to sing songs that make me smile,
Now all they do is make me cry.
I use to love the blue of your eyes but now it's turning black.
I remember holding hands in the sun but now you're gone.
And all I want to do is forget you right now.

Is this a mess or just another test.
Don't break my heart.
Cause I tried so hard to make you happy.
So what have you done to me?
At least while feeling like this I'll never miss...

I use to sing songs that make me smile,
Now all they do is make me cry.
I use to love the blue of your eyes but now it's turning black.
I remember holding hands in the sun but now you're gone.
And all I wanna do is forget you right now.

And now I'll drop to my knees and wish upon a falling star.
I've written songs for you; forgiven you for running far.
I could live through these nights where our love has died,
But I'm through with them and through with you.

Stay on Rewind
These shattered dreams I have of you are wearing thin.
And so is the hope that tomorrow will be better.
The last time I heard your voice you were shivering with hate,
And I don't think I'll ever see you again.

And I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.

And I wished that you would be happy.
But I wished I wouldn't be alone.
How can fresh air be so hard to breathe in?
And these cold nights alone take their toll.
I'm starting to feel like no one really cares at all.
Maybe I'm right.

And I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.

Everyone always says that tomorrow will be alright.
But I look around this empty room and notice that everything isn't ok.
Everyone always says that tomorrow will be alright.
(And I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.)
But I look around this empty room and notice that everything isn't ok.
(And I dream tonight the sweetest dream that could be had of you.)

Black Secret
That night when I said I love you more than anything,
Not a word came out of your mouth.
An awkward silence arose from the sky and ripped us apart.
I tried wishing upon a glowing star.
But that star seemed to crash into earth and stop my heart and stop time itself.

It seems the world just stopped spinning and threw me off it's axis into space.
I'll suffocate eternally, internally.
I hear every single persons voice in my head all at once. 
Yours is the softest but the one that hurts the most.
Yet you said nothing at all.
And it feels like my ears are about to shatter from the inside and bleed out tears.

With my eyes closed I'll stretch out my hands
And with my last breath I'll beg you.
No I'll ask you just don't let me go.
It wasn't so much the lack of air.
It was how you shattered my heart.
Like a flowered vase dropped from the tallest skyscraper.
But does it ever hit the ground?

You watch me break apart and you stand there laughing.
But inside you must be hurting, you have to be.
Every day you watch me break apart and you just stand there laughing.
But I know you're hurting inside, you have to be.

What if I fell into the sea so softly and preciously?
If somehow I wasn't destroyed on impact I couldn't face myself.
I couldn't face the world without you here.
I can?t let go so you can't let go.

What?
I'm sitting in my living room,
Trying to get the nerve to pick up the phone.
And call you and say hello.
I'll tell what you are to me and say without you I?m nothing,
And I want to be your boyfriend.

But what about that other guy?
What if you say no I might die.
Well if you say yes I will too.
You mean this much to me,
You taught me how to count to three.
I can't live without you.

I didn't call yesterday but today?s a brand new day
And my shirt says I am cool.
With shoes wearing thin I hope this soon all will end.
What's your number again?

But what about that other guy?
What if you say no I might die.
Well if you say yes I will too.
You mean this much to me,
You taught me how to count to three.
I can't live without you.

I'm looking through the past to find out if we could last.
I know I love you and I can count on you,
And you can count on me to believe in you.
So when I ask you out today just to see what you will say
I hope you say yes I really do.

Todays a new day,
The streets are filled with rain and still all I want is you.

Paper Airplanes
Tried so hard to fit in never did.
It hurt me so to just let go.
So I never will, I never will.

Flight last so long never ends.
With a voice so low just let go.
Or never speak, never sleep.

Paper airplanes are never the same,
After they're flown once in the air.
It's always the same.
They always remain helpless and alone again.

Head first into the ground never hurt like your hate.
It never ends never begins until I see your face.

Paper airplanes are never the same,
After they're flown once in the air.
It's always the same.
They always remain helpless and alone again.
Paper airplanes are never the same,
After they're flown once in the air.

Failure by the Dozen
Don't worry about me,
While you sit there and watch and blood flow from my wrist.
Never have I felt or never have you seen,
A heart crumble in two.

I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
As I mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.

Never has the world been so absorbed,
From the lost of a last breath.
I never could believe that leaves fall from trees
As I'm seeing red.

I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
As I mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.

All those things that you said and every time I bled
You could have left instead.
But when I couldn't see.
You were there for me to be another star thats falling down.

I'll watch the sunset tonight.
As I lose my life a star falls from the sky.
As I mumble my last words as you hold your breath;
Failure by the dozen.

Against Better Judgement
If I sailed this letter out to sea would it reach the shore?
And would you pick it up and read it aloud, or just ignore.
Would you think I'm wrong if I sang a song for you tonight?
Could you stand the thought of me being right for once, whoever knew.

You said that I could never be what you wanted me to be.
Then why wouldn't you let go of my sleeve?
Like a ghost from hell, like a prison cell, like a sun that burning up.
Like every day it feels like the worlds about to end and nothing goes right.

Against better judgement.
You?re against all that's right.
Against better judgement.
This has to end tonight; you swear.

So I'll squeeze my bear and I pull my hair and I scream until I drop a lung.
I let my tears flow onto you as I hit the desk.
And I whisper I'll miss you whisper I need you with my eyes closed tight.
Will I ever feel right again?

Against better judgement.
You?re against all that's right.
Against better judgement.
This has to end tonight; you swear.

I don't understand, I'll never understand.
(Stay on rewind so I can stay in your mind.)
Why this doesn't feel right for you.
I don't understand, I'll never understand.
(Stay on rewind so I can stay in your mind.)
Why leaving would feel right to do.
I don't understand, I'll never understand.
(Stay on rewind so I can stay in your mind.)
Why I fell in love with you, you swear.

3 minutes 47 seconds left to live
It's 3:47 when I can't wake up.
My nights have consumed me but my eyes seems wide awake.
A second never passes if the clock never ticks.
Stuck in time I drift away.

I gaze upon these dials.
I wait for them to move forward but they never do.
I?m seemingly trapped inside this moment forever.
It seems like a bad dream that never stops haunting me to sleep.

I bargain off my bed, as we roll through covers and sheets,
Just to have one more night full of sleep.
I?m waiting, I?m waiting through my vacant house,
And you're singing myself a dream to sleep.

September Seems So Lonely This Year
This boy feels so alone and broken up.
A smile seems so far away.
I'd give away my breath to see you again.
Instead I'll draw a silhouette of you.

September seems so lonely this year.

She is the sky and the wind.
To feel her cheek against my face is to live.
But some static goes through the air and kills a fly.
And somehow I feel like I have too died.

September seems so lonely this year.

A Perfect Day

And on this perfect day,
We'll sing our favorite songs all day long.
The wind blows a bunch of leaves up in the air.
And they circle us like a heart and mess up my hair,
I mess up yours.

We'll watch scary movies,
And I'll hold onto you as you hold onto me.
We'll hold onto our love,
And I'll whisper in your ear one more time.

And on this perfect day,
We'll take a walk in the park,
And hold hands, remember the past.
Other couples will watch jealously,
As I hold you close to me.

Searching for the right words to say never came so easily,
On this so a perfect day with you.

The Moon Is Expensive
The moon is expensive and our love's not replenished.
Will you cry tonight alone again with a knife at your wrist?
I'll cry for you as well I know this is fucking hell.
I'll dream again tonight about you; the sweetest of dreams.

Will you take pills and pretend it's alright?
Or write I just want to forget tonight?
I'll piss away my life or bleed to death thinking of you.

Now I forget just why I lived or why I even tried to breathe.
I'll write it out read it over use the note to burn down your house.

The moon is expensive and goodbyes are replenished.
I'll drive off this fucking highway cause I can't take it.
Give or take a few good lines this song is about our life.
And how we washed away like a butterfly on a rainy day.

Well, I don't care that you promised me that you'd go away.
You're never coming back again.
So take my heart away with you I don't need it anymore anyway.

Early Spring
There are some things that I can't say when I talk to you.
Like I've been thinking recently about you,
And I'm throwing myself off this cliff,
Because I can't believe I have you.

And all I want is what you want.
And I don't know what I?m thinking about but I know is it's you.
And all I need is you right now.
And early spring is the best time to fall in love with you.

So here's to these daily leaps of faith.
I'm hoping nothing has gone wrong today.
Sometimes I wonder how time flies by so fast,
But it stops when i'm with you.

And all I want is what you want.
And I don't know what I'm thinking about but I know is it's you.
And all I need is you right now.
And early spring is the best time to fall in love with you.

And I hope that you understand I am in love with you.

And I hope you understand all I really want is you.
And I hope you understand all I really want is you.
And I hope you understand all I really want is you, is you.
Is me with you.

A Cold Summer
It's not fair that I'm here,
And you're so far away.
I'm so scared with you there,
And me so far away from you.

Every time the sun does rise I dream I stare into eyes,
And I wish that you were here right now.
If only i had one more kiss,
If only i had one last wish,
I'd make that wish on you.

Ahh

It's not fair to feel what I'm feeling now.
But I guess life's not fair.
Since you're still far away from me.

Every time the sun does rise I dream i stare into eyes
And I wish that you were here right now.
If only I had one more kiss
If only I had one last wish
I'd make that wish on you.

Na na na na na

Its not fair that I can't remember the scent of your hair.
It's not fair that I'm so far away from you.

Fictional Lullaby
If you could sing to me one more time,
Before you leave me behind
Oh, I swear it'd make my life.

If you could sing me to sleep tonight
It would be the sweetest lullaby,
And I would hardly sleep.
A note I'd write for you tonight
Thanking you for everything,
You've ever done for me.

Sing to me about the sweetest dreams.
I love your voice.
I love everything about you.
I'll miss you always.

If you could sing me to sleep tonight,
Would it be a fictional lullaby?
Just another silly lie.
And when he holds her hand so tight tonight,
Will they make out under the stars?
Oh, oh. 

Sing to me about the sweetest dreams.
I love your voice.
I love everything about you.
I'll miss you always.

And when I sing to you tonight try not to cry,
Cause you know I"d give everything for you.

A Weeks Worth of Tears
I found you on a Saturday,
Lost you on a Sunday,
Fell in love with you again on Monday.
The weeks pass by so slowly,
But I know one thing,
I'll be in love with you on Tuesday.
And If you choose to keep me I would be so happy.
But if I not I guess I'll feel so crappy.
And I guess I'll get over it,
I'll probably throw another fit,
And curl into a ball in the corner.

The weeks pass by.
The days never change,
And neither does my love for you.
I'll give you this song,
So you can sing along when you feel alone.

Wednesdays would be much better,
Without this crappy weather.
Like every single day we've had before us.
Hey, remember Thursday?
I think that was the best day.
But hey, Friday night was all right too.

The weeks pass by.
The days never change,
And neither does my love for you.
I'll give you this song,
So you can sing along when you feel alone.

I'll come around and say I'm yours.
Hey, turn that frown upside down,
And turn your hate into love.
But still I won't give up on the week, on the year, and on you.

Don't Forget to Read In Between The Black and White Lines, I Love you
I know it's hard for you,
Cause it was so hard for me.
But I know you'll get through tonight.
Some days I don't feel like getting up
And one more day without you...
I think of how messed up it would be without you.

Turned on, it turns out we'll be just fine.
Turned on, it turns out we'll make it through tonight.

You are the one that keeps me up at night,
And the one who sings me to sleep.
You are the only one that keeps running through my mind.
But I wouldn't have it any other way.
I wouldn't want another lonely day.
And then I think of how this is without you.

Turned on, it turns out we'll be just fine.
Tonight under this ocean blue sky.
Turned on, it turns out we'll be just fine.
Turned on, it turns out we'll make it through tonight.

And I'm still floating in between black and white lines.
Decisions clouded by not knowing wrong from right.
And now I'm ready to start forgetting.
Forgetting those wasted memories,
Forgetting these wasted memories of you.
Forgetting you is easier said then done.

Turned on, it turns out we'll be just fine.
Turned on, it turns out we'll make it through tonight.

I'm still floating in between black and white lines.
But don't forget to read and don't forget I loved you.

Alone Forever
So here's the place
Where I say something today,
To make all my problems go away.
And somewhere along those lines,
I'll skip a few words,
But I won't forget to say goodbye this time.

How can I call this love?
When you can't even feel at all.

Looks like I'll be alone forever and today.
And if I fail to find the one who's right for me.
I guess I'll be alone forever.

This is where you show yourself to me
And I realize that you're not the girl of my dreams.
So what is it that you see that is so bad in me?
Will someone please explain this thing called love to me?

Cause if it's what you call Sunday Drive,
Then you have love all wrong.

Looks like I'll be alone forever and today.
And if I fail to find the one who's right for me.
I guess I'll be alone forever.

So here's the place
Where I say something today,
To make all my problems go away.
And somewhere along those lines,
I'll skip a few words,
But I won't forget to say goodbye this time.
I won't forget to say goodbye this time.
Goodbye.

I'll Miss You So Much
In a corner I would sit alone,
Until you came and recuse me.
And two broken hearts,
Have grown so far apart it seems.

But if you fall tonight would if matter if I'm there?
A lonely night spent alone doesn't seem so far away.
I'll miss you so much.

In a corner I would sit alone,
Until you came and recuse me.
And two broken hearts,
Have grown so far apart it seems.

But if you fall tonight would if matter if I'm there?
A lonely night spent alone doesn't seem so far away.
I'll miss you so...

In a corner I will be,
If you decide you want me.
I hope you want me soon,
Why did it have to be you?

But when I fall tonight will you even be there?
A lonely night spent alone doesn't seem so far away.
I'll miss you so much.

Anatomy of a Corner
Who have you got inside your head?
With her scent still left in the air.
And I know just what's ahead so I just stare,
And admire the darkness that draged me here.

I know exactly who has been here,
And I know that you were before me.
What will you do when you're the only one left there?
Stare into the headlights so blankly and unprepared.

I never felt this coming,
I never even heard you breathe.
And you'll never find the answers,
Even though you looked for a century.
What will be the end must slightly be the beginning.
It's always so different,
It's never how you want it to be.

So what's in this empty space?
That occupies the place where your tears are cried today.
And maybe tomorrow what sits with me.
Is just an invisible ghost of will be.

I never felt this coming,
I never even heard you breathe.
And you'll never find the answers,
Even though you looked for a century.
What will be the end must slightly be the beginning.
It's always so different,
It's never how you want it to be.

And this circular circumference has no corners to fall into.
And no walls to keep in the secrets you held onto.
Like every time you ditched me and every time you called me a fool.
But I can still cast a shadow when there's no light left in the room.

Thanks For Disappointing Me
A whisper; so soft, unheard, it dies.
I know you gave your all, I did too.
This might be our last chance to fly away from here.
So lift up your wings and let the wind carry us away.
And all the people here they seem so mad what could I've done?
To make them feel like this so alone and out of this.
So lift up your wings and let the wind carry us away.

On The Way Home
[Lyrics from the demo version]

She breathes in deep cause it's dark and cold.
We need a sign cause I'm speechless too.
It's frightening how time flies by,
As the days are short just like this life.
I'm dying now too see your eyes,
They make me so nice too feel alive.
I'll find a way to get to you on the way home.

When it Rains
It's raining, no it's pouring outside and it won?t seem to stop.
No matter how I try to fight.
It just keeps pouring down enough to make me sad.
To bring you here.

Now, if only I could find some shade it would all be ok.
But I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere.
My hair is dripping wet and I'm starting to get cold.

But as long as you?re here holding my hand everything will be all right.
And if I shout at the sky loud enough would it all come down?
Probably not.

Why does it always seem that every time it rains I'm always sad.
And I'm down but it could be worse.
Or is it just that every time I'm sad it rains?

And when it rains it pours I swear to god everything I know is going to end.
But as long as you here with me it will be a happy end.

Every Night and Day
I take a drink of your voice.
What it taste like I can't describe how it feels or how to live.
But I could write a whole book about feeling like shit.
On a window seal I put my heart and carve out our names.
But I would do anything to have you back with me.
And it's all just a coincidence,
We met up tonight at place where first I first saw your eyes.

Is it so wrong just to feel like this when everyone surrounding me is so happy?
And I want you now more than I ever did but you're not here.
And I feel so terrible tonight.
But I would take back what I said cause I didn't mean to say what I did.
And I know I fuck everything up,
But I tried my hardest to be a good friend to you.

Sweetie
Sweetie the words that you wrote for me,
Were like a vivid memory.
But the birds that we watched across the skies,
Were nothing compared to you.

And I would take you in my arms,
To show you how much I'm in love with you.
I'd lay my head on your chest,
Just to hear you breathe,
And taste your lips,
And I'd hold your hand.
But I'll wait until time stands still,
Cause you're so cute it might kill.

Sweetie the words that I write for you are true,
You make me feel so nice.
And the stars that we wished upon on the night, on that sky, 
Were nothing compared to you.

And I would take you in my arms,
To show you how much I'm in love with you.
I'd lay my head on your chest,
Just to hear you breathe,
And taste your lips,
And I'd hold your hand.
But I'll wait until time stands still,
Cause you're so cute it might kill.

And if someone was to ask me,
With whom I'd spend eternity,
I'd choose you.

Realizing What Was Once Had
Always, I know that letting you go,
Was the worst thing I've done since day number one.

When we laughed so much,
I thought it would last but I was so wrong.

I want you to say what you feel.
Let me know how I can help you heal.
Cause I never meant to make things so wrong.
And now that you're gone I feel so lost.

The last thing you said oh, it hurt me so much.
"I always knew that you weren't the one."
All those times you wrote me before,
You promised I wouldnt hurt anymore.

I want you to say what you feel.
Let me know how I can you heal.
Cause I never meant to make things so wrong.
And now that you're gone I feel so lost.
I feel so lost

B-Side to Romance
I couldn't think of what to say,
We had an argument today.
I wish that we could still be friends.
Why do you always have to make me out to be,
The one that ruins your life?

I wish I meant more to you,
Than just another fucking boy with a broken heart.
But it keeps running through my head
All those fucked up things you said,
And I just wish I would die.

I couldn't think of what to say,
Cut my wrist again today.
But I wish that I could take it back.
The questions that I always ask,
Are never answered anyway.

And it hurts me now to think of you,
But it's all that I can do.
It's so hard to let go of the things i'll never know.
And all my silly dreams of you being with me.
Have died along with me.

Dustin
Tossing, turning, laughing, smiling when I see your face.
Writing songs, jotting notes just to take his place.
Girl, I sure love thinking of you.
Seeing your smile makes my day better than you ever knew.

And you come to me every night in a dream.
And when you're not around I wanna cry.
But nothing I could ever do or say,
Could make you love me today.

Well I can't help but think of what life would be like with you.
Holding hands in front of my friends,
Pillow fights, licking jello off you.
Singing songs that hurt me and make me cry.
But I swear it's the only thing I do.

Titles are Useless
Here we go again it's four o'clock in the morning.
All I can do is stay awake because your reputation says so.
And we prove we're strong with false looks aimed to keep you alive.
So take me for granted because I'll be here forever.

I'm not going to lie, everything's not wrong.
But rightly speaking we are doing just fine,
Lying in bed is the solution to all of my problems,
Then crown me a problem solver but keep your own.
You look better off anyways.
You're so in style but god I miss you today.
I'll let you know even though I've told you before.
I am shattered, and broken, and that is the truth,
But that doesn't mean I'm not good for a play or two, maybe three.
If I get lucky you'll come back to me, come back to me.

Here we go again it's six in the morning.
But I can't sleep it's too early,
And I'm not ready to deal with the hurt that you let me.
I'll prove that I can make it better but what if I'm wrong.
Would I see you again I just don't know.
So take me for granted cause I won't be nice for much longer.
Unless you say sorry.

I'm not going to lie everything's wrong but in a way I'm doing just fine.
If slitting my wrist is the solution to all of my problems then arnt i better?
How come i'm sad I've been crowned aproblem solver
Oh but you made sure you save some for yourself.

Titles are useless to me you won't read them anyway.
And you will never stay you're already gone.
So I'm left here alone
it's all just the same if i meet you again.
Would you remember my name?
but it's ok i won't
I made you a promise and I'm going to keep it.
No matter what it takes
I'll let you know even though.
I told you I am shattered I am broken
I'll never be the same.
But that doesn't mean I'm not good for a play or two, maybe three.

Wait Up
Wait up, can't you see my fall?
All over the place and down in your arms.
These nights have been wasted with her,
Thinking of you, well listen to me..
Don't think cause you apologized.
I've forgiven you, because I havent.
And probably never ever will.
You've broken my heart,
You went for the kill.

Say goodnight, cause this my last goodbye.
I want to love you I just can't right now
She said

Wake up, can't you hear me lie?
All over the place especially to you.
These nights have been wasted with her,
Thinking of how I could dump you.
Don't think cause I act this way,
I really love you, because I havent.
And probably never ever will.
I'm breaking your heart,
I went for the kill.

And I can see your smile,
It's breaks my heart.
So helpless, so hopeless,
So whipped I can't explain it.
But how long can you fake your smile before it starts to hurt?
So hopeless, so broken you can't explain it.
But you're wrong.

We Live On
smile me a garden of laughter and joy
cry me a rainbow with tin at its end instead of gold
and sing me a poem of full of love
shout at me in slience that's louder than words

tell me of mystery, tell me of pain
paint me a picture that's made of your name
my heart is yours now that you're gone
your songs buried with you
but we live on

sneer at my hopes, laugh at my dreams
love with your soul i'm afriad to dream
borrow my happiness or steal it from me
don't tell the truth cause a lie is all that you need

Never Said
I never meant to lie to you.
I never meant to break your heart.
Cause I know exactly how that feels.
I never meant to be afraid.
I never meant to make you cry.
Sometimes I don't understand why I do what I do.

And I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.
I'm sorry but I know that's not enough.

I never meant to be so cold.
I never meant to be what I'm better than.
I know I could be a better friend.
I never meant to keep my voice low.
I never meant to hide my feelings like a photograph.
So I understand why you think what you do.

And I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.
I'm sorry but I know that's not enough.

If I could go back in time and stop myself I would.
If I could go back in time and stop myself, oh.

And I regret most the things I said.
But I never said..
And I regret most the things I said.
(I'm sorry best friends drift away.)
But I never said..
(Lovers lost forever in a daze.)
And I regret most the things I said.
(With one thing I never thought I'd say.)
But I never said..
(I'm sorry I let us drift away.)
And I regret most the things I said.
(My love will never fade from me.)
But I never said..
(But my eyes close dreaming of the day.)
And I regret most the things I said.
But I never said..
And I regret most the things I said.
But I never said I'm sorry.

Flowers into fire.

Lips pressed against mine.

From 05 - 06 [For Trey]
I'm standing right next to you but you seem so far away.
I see you crack a smile then you turn away.
I cried a little on the inside cause what we once had.
The girl I once loved so much only makes me sad.
I don't know what to do now I just want to leave this place.
I see your eyes and wonder why as tears run down my face.
You made me so happy when we were together.
Now we're far apart but you say it's for the better.

Maybe one day I will come across your mind.
Dig deep in your heart, our love is what you'll find.
I hope it happens soon cause it seems to be the trend.
I'll always love you until the very end.

I look into the sky and you're the one I see.
I hear your voice speak softy I feel you next to me.
This feeling is amazing I get it everyday.
And everynight I pray don't let it go away.
I look into the sky and you're the one I see .
I hear your voice speak softy I feel you next to me.
This feeling is amazing I get it everyday.
And everynight I pray don't let it go away.
I look into the sky and you're the one I see .

This feeling is amazing I get it everyday.
And everynight I pray don't let it go away.

This feeling is amazing I get it everyday.
And everynight I pray don't let it go away.

She makes my life so special.
She makes my life so grand.
She makes me feel amazing,
With just the touch of her hand.
I couldn't live without her I don't want to even try.
She makes me want to joy.
She makes me want to fly.
(You make me feel invincible, you make me feel invulnerable.)
I look into the sky and you're the one I see 
I hear your voice speak softy I feel you next to me
This feeling is amazing I get it everyday
And everynight I pray don't let it go away

Maybe one day I will come across your mind.
Dig deep in your heart, our love is what you'll find.
I hope it happens soon cause it seems to be the trend.
But I will always love you.

Why Can't We Be Friends So I Can Stab You In The Back?
Just give it up, you'll never win anyway.
Give it up, you're fucking up anyway.
Give your life to burn, give your life so you can say you tired.
Well I fucking tried.

There's no way this could happen today.
There's no way it could happen today.
I tell myself there's no way it could happen today.
No way.

Give it up, you'll never win.
Just give it up before you're killed.
Give your life to love just to get your heart broken.
Well I, at least I've drowned.

There's no way that it could happen today.
There's no way it could happen today.
I tell myself there's no way it could happen today.
I tell myself, myself, I was wrong.
I am wrong.
I am wrong.

I tried so hard to hold you near, keep you tight my dear.
I lost my will to breathe when you left me;
I dropped on my knees.
And begged and begged, I plead, I need.
For you to forgive me.
Won't you just forgive me?
Won't you just forget me, already?

Why can't we be friends so I can stab you in the back?
You'll never know though I told you so.
Just go, Just go.
I promise I soon will follow.
I'll save myself from you.

The Sounclick.com Theme
I'd been searching for hours for a place to take my mind off things.
I thought I'd be looking forever 'till I came upon a site soothing,
With every type of feature that made think it was the future.
My jaw opened just like the final performance of American Idol,
That I could upload my music and listen to my favorites.

It must be soundclick.com,
It's better than a dream.
If you think sliced bread is great,
Then you haven't seen a thing.
It should be at soundclick.com,
On the front of every Zine.
And if disagree with me,
You shouldn't be walking the streets.

I've been shaking to the Pop Charts all through the morning,
Head banging with the Metal charts straight into the afternoon.
I've been bumping with the Hip-Hop, drowning out the roomies.
Then turned it to the Classics let Mozart ease my poor aching heart.
And I know that I can never find a place as close to home as here.
You're so cool you get a solo.

It must be soundclick.com,
It's better than a dream.
If you think sliced bread is great,
Then you haven't seen a thing.
It should be at soundclick.com,
On the front of every Zine.
And if disagree with me,
You shouldn't be walking the streets.

I love soundclick.com.
(I know that soundclick.com is better than a dream.)
You love soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com has more hold on me then gravity)
We love soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com is the best of remedies)
Your mom loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com is the reason that I breathe)
The guy down the street loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com it's better than a dream.)
George Bush loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com makes me wanna scream)
The world loves soundclick.com.
(Cause it's better than a dream.)
The universe loves soundclick.com.

The Naptime Song
Running around the house gets me out of breath.
Taking that big poop sure drained my energy.
I'm getting cranky, getting angry at every single sound.
My favorite show won't come on I think it's out of town.

But for now it's time for naptime (No more smearing cupcakes.)
It's time for naptime (Where's my blankey/chocolate milk?)
It's time for naptime (And I'm a big kid now)
It's time for naptime.

Won't you tell me tell me tell me another storybook tale,
About some animal in a high voice with a secret concealed.
I won't fall asleep but I love hearing your voice and thinking in fantasy.

So now it's time for naptime (No more smearing cupcakes.)
It's time for naptime (Where's my blankey/chocolate milk?)
It's time for naptime (And I'm a big kid now)
It's time for naptime.

I'll find some crayons to draw on the walls.
Unless you give me what I want I promise I'll bawl.
I'll pull the cute dogs ears and scream at the top of my lungs.
I know I'm a brat but it works doesn't it?
Don't even try to claim to me adults don't throw fits.
You gotta bring out your inner child.
Come on and lay down with me.

It's time for naptime (No more smearing cupcakes.)
It's time for naptime (Where's my blankey/chocolate milk?)
It's time for naptime (Plus I'm a big kid now)
It's time for naptime.

I'm just in a bad mood cause I've got a growing tooth.
And the boy at pre-school already broke my heart.
And I know I'm due for a hard life full of regret, disappointment, and fear.
But as long as I got you and naptime too I'll push these nightmares further away.
And we can live the American Dream of a happy ending.

Hey, Mr. Dinosaur

Hey, Mr. Dinosaur sitting in the corner.
Staring at the floor wondering what's life for.
Why am I here? My species went extinct 65 million years ago.
It's so hard when you don't fit in.
Everyone runs away when they see you grin.
And all you really want is a friend.

Hey, Mr. Dinosaur I'd like you to meet an old friend of mine.
She's not a T-Rex but I promise you she's got the most pretty eyes.
Why does love fix everything? Well I don't know but it still does.
It's so hard when you don't fit in.
Everyone runs away when they see you grin.
But there she comes stomping all cute again.

She says hi how are you?
I'm a pterodactyl.
I saw you way down here while flying in the air.
Put a smile on your face, dear.
I know you're alone but I am too.
Maybe we could be alone together?
He says oh, that's so nice of you.
Yeah, I'd love that very much.
I hope that you know you're a cutiebutt.
You put a smile on my face, dear.
And we can be together just promise me it'll be forever.

It's so easy when you've found someone,
That you've always dreamt of and you fall in love.
And you write long letters and songs for each other.
Even though you're dinosaurs so you don't have thumbs.
You rawr at each other in your cute dino language,
And you cuddle in the country under the stars together.
You know this is exactly why you exist.

I hope you always smile cause you always make my while.
I know I tell you all the time but you're constantly on my mind.
You're my perfect girl; you're my entire world.
You give me all I could ever need,
Rub your smooth dino scales against me.
I love you like I've never loved anything.
You mean more than everything.
You'll never go extinct in my mind.
I'll hold you until I can't breathe anymore,
I'll spend my whole life making sure you feel comfortable.
I hope you always smile cause you always make me smile.
I'll wipe all your tears away every single day for the rest of our lives.

Be Mine
[I know Karate]

Girl, you got grocery shopping skills like it ain't no thing.
I'd like run around with you in a shopping cart,
While you're stealing string cheese from isle three.
But I know it's not enough to make you fall in love
So once I've gotten all that figured out,
We're gonna play slip and slide in my back yard, oh. 

I'll calculate just exactly how much time,
It'll take for me to be inside your mind.
Cause I think about you every day slash night light.
So it'd mean a lot if you would just be mine tonight.

What's the deal with my floor being lava?
Didn't think there was a problem I couldn't solve,
But uh, this is weird.
You flew through my window with your powers.
We arrived back at your house in like an hour,
And we danced to hellogoodbye.

I'll calculate just exactly how much time,
It'll take for me to be inside your mind.
Cause I think about you every day slash night light.
So it'd mean a lot if you would just be mine tonight.

1, 2, 3! Are you looking for a lover?
It might be me cause I'm hiding in your covers.
Oh no it's fine, I didn't mean to scare you.

Do you care if I spend the night?
Do you wanna have a pillow fight?
I'll read a bedtime story, that's right.
So it would mean a lot if you would just be mine.

Zombie Love
Last night I got bit by a zombie girl.
She opened her mouth put her teeth into my neck.
Then I turned into a zombie too,
And now I'm hanging with my zombie crew.

I see that zombie girl across the street.
With blood running down her decaying cheek I fall in love.
Her clothes are torn and she's missing an arm,
But even still she's got it going on.

Hey what's up I'm zombie you're a zombie too.
So we should make some zombie love that's way past due.
I've never wanted to eat anyones brains out so bad.
Just please don't tell your zombie dad what's up.

This morning I woke up hearing moans.
Man, I didn't know being a zombie owned.
Now I'm staying up for five days straight,
Walking around from state to state eating brains.
Oh, but this zombie girl owns me zombie world,
And she'll never leave my side.

Hey what's up I'm zombie you're a zombie too.
So we should make some zombie love that's way past due.
I've never wanted to anyones brains out so bad.
Just please don't tell your zombie dad

Or he'll show up and take you away
Rip off my arms and throw me onto a highway.
Luckily everyone's a zombie now so there's no cars.
Cause zombies can't drive.
And if your head falls off I'll still carry it around.
That's zombie love, baby.
That's zombie love, baby.
And if your head falls off I'll still carry it around.
That's zombie love, baby.
That's zombie love, baby.
With your brains in my mouth I'm smiling now.
And I know that I know that I know.

I Stepped On A Flower
I stepped on a flower as it withered and died.
I stepped on an ant it just whimpered and cried.
I stepped on a mountain flowing with colorful ice.
I stepped on a rainbow but the end was out of sight.
But don't ask me why, don't ask me why.
Don't ask me why it made me cry.

I stepped on a bird it's wings were clipped from birth.
I stepped on a bird that had fallen to earth.
But don't ask me why, don't ask me why.
Don't ask me why it made me cry.

The Tragedy of Life
[co-written with Kyle]

Shadows walk to reveal chalk outlines scribbled upon a concrete canvas.
White bends the light to smudge their fingers until they look like ghosts.

They look like ghost.

Ghost who have fallen apart.
There's something comforting about holding knives.
This could happen to you.
Underestimated this time still you're trusting about all of this.
Impolite; lying upon of the asphalt lifeless.

There's something slighty beautiful about the morbid sight of death.
Reminding us about how life can end up sometimes
And that this is the only flaw in our design: there are ghosts.
And that's what makes us perfect.
    top

I Miss You
There's something missing,
In this night time day dream
And we both know what it is.
Sometimes you get scared,
But I'll always understand.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.

You already have me and you know it,
Well I'm sorry you feel lonely.
I miss our highway drives and our marvelous nights
When your eyes outshine every star in the sky.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.

Whenever you're scared know I'll be there.
Whenever you feel alone know you're not.
Whenever you're crying remember us cuddling.
Whenever you miss me just kiss me.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.
Yeah, I'll see you soon. Yeah I'll see you soon.
I'll see you soon. A second with you is forever in heaven.
Yeah, I miss you but second with you is forever in heaven.

Hope
I was lost, I was scared.
That there'd never be anyone there.
But there was hope for me that there'd be somebody 
To help me breathe.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

There is nothing wrong with you being my life.
When everything about you makes me feel alive.
Like the oceans in your eyes, the softness of your smile.
You'll keep me safe forever just by, just by staying in my arms.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

You're all I know.
You're all I want to know.
You're all I know.
You're all I'll ever, you're all I'll ever know.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

The World
You're a dream. One I could never conceive.
And you're all I have but you're all I need.
I write the same old songs with my broken voice,
Cause I'll always know you're my entire world.

And nothing can break us.
If the world fall apart, we'll wait out the storm.
And nothing will fade us.

I'll do everything for you without you asking me to.
Will you retrace this sky as I melt in your eyes?
Cause it reminds me of you the first time we met,
And I'll never forget what we said.

That nothing can break us.
If the world fall apart, we'll wait out the storm.
And nothing can fade us.

And I've been waiting so long for you,
I'm obsessed with everything you do.
So please always be the same.

And it starts when everything's perfect.
And it build too fast for you to follow it.
I used to have everything but now i'm missing all I need.
We used to share memories but now I don't mean anything

Those words you once said.
And it's getting harder, getting harder to breath.
And now you should know, you're only a ghost. 
But I'm falling harder, falling harder than I ever have before.

It's so strange that i'm drawn to tragedy.
And it's weird that you mean anything to me,
When you took my heart and tore it all apart.
Now that we're here I don't know where to start.

And it's all in my head,
Those words you once said.
And it's getting harder, getting harder to breath.
And now you should know, you're only a ghost. 
But I'm falling harder, falling harder than I ever have before.

I don't want you.
And I don't want to want to want you anymore.
(I don't want you. I don't need you,
It's taken everything I have to pull through.
But I'm better now cause I'm forgetting everything that you ever tried to say to me)
I don't want you.
And I don't want to want to want you anymore.

Wrong Answers to Rhetorical Questions
I thought I found the finish line
I thought this pot of gold was mine
But its just like reality to come and pour water on me
So whats to keep me from quitting right here and now?
Why shouldn't I throw myself in?
Throw myself in and chase what I've lost.

Cause the ground always seems to give out from under me
And I'm starting to get used to all of this tragedy.

I had it all planned on paper just to see the ink run away
I thought the odds were in my favor but I was bested by hearts and spades
I put all my money on this bet cause no one ever ever thinks that they'll regret.
Yeah, no one ever ever thinks that they'll regret
Taking the chance on something they deserve.

But the ground always seems to give out from under me
And I'm starting to get used to all of this tragedy.

Why shouldn't I throw myself in?

If this is what I'm going to always get,
Then theres no reason why I shouldn't quit.
If they're expecting me to get over it,
Then I hope they know I'm always going to quit.

Too Far Away
I know it was something I'd have to face,
I'd seen it coming months ago.
It was something I didnt want to taste,
I didn't think that I could let you go.
Not to many people will say what I learned on that day.
Not to many people can say that they had their heart thrown away.

You always did have a way with me; you and your bright eyes.
You always did have a way with me especially when you smiled.
You always did have me and I hung on every word you said,
But no matter how bright you smiled any hope I had is dead.

So long we're not meant to be.

Moving on is always the hardest part it takes all my might,
But as many times as I've done this I could never get it right.
I know you'll forget every memory
In a week I wont be a part of you
I'll forget all the things you said to me
so wish me luck on something I can't do

You always did have a way with me; you and your bright eyes.
You always did have a way with me especially when you smiled.
You always did have me and I hung on every word you said,
But no matter how bright you smiled any hope I had is dead.

So long we're not meant to be.

I'm coming home but I've never felt so lost.
I'm staying home but I've never felt so lost.
I'm still at home but you're still lost.
I hope you know how much I could have shared.

12 years of education and all I've learned is mistrust.
One thing I shouldve known there was no future for us
Remember that card I gave you
Was it too much for you to handle?
If it was friendship not evidence tell me why you snuffed the candle.

I'm sorry I hope I never have to ever look your way again.
I'm sorry I hope you never have someone who tries to be this good of a friend.

Tall, beautiful, kind, and sweet.
You made me pick myself up.
Yet you actually leave me beat when you end a friendship that abrupt.
I think of every word I said, think of every deed I did.
Then I think of how you cut me off,
How you ruined my life and hid.

I'm sorry I hope I never have to ever look your way again.
I'm sorry I hope you never have someone who tries to be this good of a friend.

Did you ever stop and think of how I felt?

These are my last words that I'll ever say to you

You've always been a heartbreak.
You'll always be a heartache.
And you were nothing but a, a disappointment to me.

E.Q.
I bought my hope from the store.
This is the most I'd ever wasted.
It withered and died in the sun but I can't say it wasn't really fun.
I tried new shoes in different sizes, every pair was loose or tight.
I thought I'd fit it just right but I'm just a stain through a black light.

Comformity couldn't get any harder than this this.
I tried to get shot but I know that I'll always miss.

The walls caved in from all sides.
My friends were better when they cried.
I locked the doors from the outside,
So I'd never have to confied.
I pleaded guilty to everything but the courts insisted I was insane.
I was aquitted, got off scotch free.
They knew they could never teach me.

Comformity couldn't get any harder than this this.
I tried to get shot but I know that I'll always miss.

And not knowing what to think, it's never worth anything.

What did anyone ever really expect to me?
Not everything with sugar is always sweet.
This time there is no storybook ending.
This time my life has no storybook ending.

Fight Off Your Demons (Brand New)
I know that you're a sucker for anything acoustic.
But when I say lets keep in touch,
I really only mean I wish that you'd grow up.
(You and me were kings over the parkway tonight.)
This is the first song for your mixtape,
And it's short just like your temper.
Somewhat golden like the afternoons,
(And tonight will go on forever while we...)
We used to spend before you got too cool.
This is over.

This is a lesson in procrasination,
I kill myself because I'm so frustrated.
And every single second that I put it off,
(Call me a safe bet I'm betting I'm not.)
Is another lonley night I gotta race the clock.
I won't see home till spring.
Oh, I would kill for the atlantic,
(Everyone's caught onto everything you do.)
But I am paid to make girls panic while I sing.
Please keep the reporters at bay.
(It's time for you to choose the bullet or the chapstick.)
This a matter of life and death,
(And you are far too cute or whatever he said.)
But I deal with things like this everyday.

Well I shot the pilot and I'm beggining for you to fly this for me.
And even if our plane crashes tonight she'll find some way to dissappoint me.
By burning in the wreckage or drowning at the bottom of the sea.
Our friends speak out in our defense.
They tend deaf ears for two months rent...

It's only you, beautiful.
(Consider this a letter that I never sent or ever even considered it seems.)
Or I don't anyone,
If I can choose, it's only you.

Home on a saturday night,
With all my doors locked up tight.
I won't be thinking about you baby.
(Call 911 I'm already dead but someone should be caught and held responsible for this bloody mess.)
Forget everything you think you know about me.
(This isn't highschool.)
So is this what you call a getaway,
Well tell my what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish,
I've seen more guts in 11 year old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home,
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
And again when your head goes through the windshield.
....We burn the gallows they erect,
And cut the nooses they tied for our necks.

I will lie awake and lie for fun,
(But how could I miscalculate perfect eyes will have perfect aim.)
And fake the way I hold you.
Let you fall for every empty word I say.
(If I can choose, it's only you.)

Girl come to me,
The only broken hearted loser you'll ever need.
Or I'll be left alone forever with my magazines.

(You're just jealous cause I'm young and in love.)
This is the end.
(Stomach filled up but you're starved for conversation.)
This is the calm.
(Spending all your nights growing old in your bed,)
We are the mountains.
(And you're tearing up your photos cause you wanna forget it's over.)
After the storm.
(You're just jealous cause I'm young and in love.)
Rest in the sea.
(Stomach's filled up but you're starved for conversation.)
Washed up on the beach.
(Spending all your nights growing old in your bed,)
This is the end.
(And you're tearing up your photos cause you wanna forget it's over.)

So keep the blood in your head,
And keep your feet on the ground.
Today's the day we got tied,
Today's the day the day we dropped out.
Give up my body in bed,
All for an empty hotel.
Wasted words on lower cases and capitals.

I'm sinking like a stone in the sea.
I'm burning like a bridge for your body.
(Is this the way a toy feels when it's batterys run dry?)

On The Strength of The Moon (Daphne Loves Derby)
We flew over the Cascades,
We were forced to behave while we sat in rows like children.
We flew over the Cascades,
Just to find ourselves in storms we've never known.

I've been looking through these eyes,
Of black and white for far too long.
Now these deepened colors seem so shocking.
(Trembling knees)
And bless the cold, cold moon
(I always dream about a deadly earthquake)
That moves the seas that makes the waves
(That shakes the state.)
That made this scene for me to see and be moved.

Will my life be long enough to see the things I want to see?
I believe this world is just too big for me.

Every cloud that passes by is another cloud I'll never see.
Maybe I just try to hard to understand all of these things.
Bless the hands of painters who have captured melon skies
(Was it hope that kept you alive through the years,)
For us to see and feel for all of time.
(And should I even call it living?)

Will my life be long enough to see the things I want to see?
I believe this world is just too big for me.

I finally know how you stand against the worst there is. 

I've been looking through these eyes,
Of black and white for far too long.
Now these deepened colors seem so shocking.
(Is there a reason why rain only falls on your head?)
And bless the cold, cold moon
That moves the seas that makes the waves
That made this scene for me to see and be moved.

Will my life be long enough to see the things I want to see?
I believe this world is just too big for me.

Every cloud that passes by,
(Come home, you were the best.)
Is another cloud I'll never see.
Maybe I just try to hard to understand all of these things
Bless the hands of painters who have captured melon skies
(Come home, I won't forget the times that we had.)
For us to see and feel for all of time.

Will my life be long enough to see the things I want to see?
I believe this world is just too big for me.

This life is just a blink of an eye;
(Hey, did you hear about my mistakes?)
A glimps into a world we were never meant to see.
(I never thought you'd see me looking down.)
So don't hang on to anything at all.
(And even though I made a mess of everything you made for me.)
And all the things we have,
(All along you were there.)
And all the people we have known,
(Waiting like you said you always would,)
Will fade away so quickly into the deep.
(Yeah, you said you always would.)
And memories of love will be the only warmth we have in the end.

I want to be where love is real and memories of distant days come to life again.

Accidently (Owen)
If you go you should know should you lose your way.
I don't miss you, I'll miss you when you're dead
I'll be staying at home.
I spend entire days in this bed too small for two.
I don't miss you, I'll miss you when you're dead
Misplacing time like I've got it to lose.
If you don't want to see the worst in me, you've got two choices.
And I think that I'm justified cause I seen what living done for those who've alive.
Cover your eyes both hands tight or just leave.
An accident, an ambulance.
Those books that you’ve read you’ll read again.
Little to none, little to none.
What an ugly scene we make as human beings.
Tell your friends hey, come on over and we'll talk.
You bring the drinks I'll bring the bad news everyone feels like you.
Who do what we want to do.
What else in this room reminds me of you?
Who’s going the right way down a wrong way street.
We've all the same social constraints and emotional cravings.
It’s true we move on.
Two more weeks in this apartment, one more week of being haunted.
If you don't wanna be with a deadbeat like me I won't blame you.
They feel sorry for you cause you try so hard.
I'm not going anywhere tonight.
Did anyone survive? Honestly, I don’t know.
Whoever you think is watching you dance across the room they aren't. 
Let's just forget everything said best friends, and better halves, goodbyes.
I know I know it was mean't well, but it still hurt like hell.
They feel sorry for you because you try so hard.
You know what you are to me. Don't make me say it over and over again.
Go on, see if I care. Do whatever the fuck you want to do I'll do the same. Alright? Okay.
You're a long ways away from the place you thought you'd be by more.
Don't take what I say to bed with you.
Hey cheek bones and eyes, I've been gone three weeks now and I'm a mess.
My stomachs on strike and it's been three weeks since my last breathe.
Put your hands on my back, kiss the back of my neck
Is anyone alive for sure no.
I eat with these crooked teeth, tomato soup, and grilled cheese.
And buy myself those things that I want.
You go and I'll stay.
Acrilyic paints, acoustic guitar strings, a new bicycle seat for my ride over to your house each night.
Why would I put clothes on to see some guy you like more than me?
Sympathy, honesty. God knows I'm trying.
Your decisions of late are by all accounts pretty fucked up.
Sympathy, honesty. God knows I'm trying.
I promise myself I'd finally start that book I've been meaning to read about the French Revolution.
As I lie awake waiting for you to wake beside me,
I could almost hear the Sad Waltzes of Pietro Crespi.
I've got a song in my head I'm sure I won't remember come morning.
I've got a picture of you, a Parisian street. Early morning, late spring.
I don't miss you, I'll miss you when you're dead.
You were taking a break from life, you were traveling light.
I'm only asking because I don't want to die.
Let your mind be at ease. I'm convinced after your performance.
At least I can see myself in the mirror.
That this world is too big for us, our stupid instincts, and our stupid desires.
I don't miss you, I'll miss you when you're dead.
In the same way that the earth moves around the sun,
The weight of gravity pulls on everyone.

Love In Motion (Copeland)
I miss the way you sing low,
So I can't your hear voice over the radio in my car. 
We do the best we can in a small town, 
Act like kids in love when the sun goes down.
Hey Amanda, who just threw your heart away this time?
And when you're crying on your bed does he help keep you alive?

But don't slow down,
(I'll take care of you, oh.)
And don't let go.
Just hold me closer now unless I fall.
(Have faith that when you call my name I'll be there.)

If you fall in love,
(Whoa, your love is a fast song,)
Fall in love and hold nothing back.
(And I'm dancing cause I'm loved again.)
I'll fall in love,
(Whoa, my heart is in motion)
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you.
(For the song inside of you.)

Go if you want,
Make your way straight through the door.
I don't to see you go, 
I never meant to make you want to leave.

That awful memory of yours,
What a blessing what a curse.
(So forgive me, cause I don't know what to do.)
When you look at me, there can be no second chances.
There cannot be a close second to you.
All my strength was tranquilized and every day I get weaker.
Sleep now moon.

If you fall in love,
(This is my love,)
Fall in love and hold nothing back.
(And it will not stop or start.)
I'll fall in love,
(And I know that in your heart,)
Fall in love and hold nothing back from you.
(You lift your hands to me.)
From you, oh.

Doesn't a sunset like that just make you want to fall in love?

We were walking downtown, yeah.
My favorite part of town.
(Walking downtown)

Come back from California.
(We were walking downtown, yeah.)
All of us here in Florida,
(My favorite part of town)
Are starved for your attention.
(Walking downtown)
Come back from california.
(Whoa, your love is a fast song.)
All of us here in Florida,
(And I'm dancing cause I'm in love with you)
Are starved for your attention.

You know I won't mind if you monoploize all my time.
(When they come knocking on your hearts door,)
I won't say a thing at all.
(Choose the one who loves you more.)
I won't say a word no.
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
(And when you've found something to die for.)
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
(They'll be knocking on your hearts door.)
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
She changes your mind.
(If you fall in love,)
When you see the joy in your eyes.
(Fall in love and hold nothing back.)
She makes you feel, it makes you feel.
Feel the pain teaching us how much more we can take.
(If you fall in love.)
Reminding us how far we've come.
(Fall in love and hold nothing back)
Feel the pain burn away for our heart
(From you, oh, you have my attention.) 
(Sing with your head up, with your eyes closed)
We have time to start all over again.
Feel the pain teaching us how much more we can take.
(Because you love to sing.)
(You have my attention.)
(Not because you love the song,)
Reminding us how far we've come.
(Because you love to sing, oh.)

And if you would shine your love down here, oh.
(And I just know that she warms my heart.)
And make our hearts as perfect as new.
(And knows where all my imperfections are.)
And she said that I was the brightest firefly in her jar. 
(Oh, I promise I'll reflect it right back at you.)

He's in love with tragedy,
(Back to where we started)
In love with tragedy.
(Losing who we were)
She was a wreck but he loved her.
(Maybe we should only tip a bottle back to keep us filled up)
She was a wreck but so was he.
And the last time he saw Dorie he didn't know what to say.
(Back to where we started losing who we were)
But thank you because you loved me and so love me cause I didn't want to stay.
(Everybody knows that you'd break your neck to keep your chin up)
I didn't want to stay.

Forgive Me, Believe Me (Box Car Racer)
I left my fear behind me of those lights out by the station.
The government is lying, the youth they won't believe them.

I am lost in the crowd.
(And I want her, need her.)
I'm standing in line.
(And I want her, need her.)
I'm feeling so down and I am full of doubt.
(And I want her, need her.)
She's not the one, take notice. Hear me out.
I've given a lot of thought to the nights we use to have
The days have come and gone our lives went by so fast.
(Don't leave.)
I faintly remember breathing on your bedroom floor.
(Don't leave her)
Where I laid and told you but you swear you loved me more.

Do you care if I don't know what to say.
(Tiny voices, make things harder.)
Will you sleep tonight or will you think of me?
(Tiny voices, make things harder.)
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay
That there's someone out there who feels just like me.
(Everybody will be let down.)
There is

Those notes you wrote me I've kept them all.
(We can't go wrong can't get fucked this time)
I've given a lot of thought of how to write you back this fall.
(Speak up now lose or get left behind)
With every single letter in every single word.
(Let's start over. Lets start over.)
There will be a hidden message about a boy that loves a girl.
I'm sorry please forgive me, believe me if you would.

Do you care if I don't know what to say?
(If you will then we'll go as fast as you go far)
Will you sleep tonight or will you think of me?
Will I shake this off, pretend it's all okay.
(Maybe we'll be forgotten when the world is torn apart.)
That there's someone out there who feels just like me.
There is

And I, I won't lie. I won't sin.
Maybe I don't wanna go
Can't you wait?
Maybe I don't wanna go.

If we can we will leave a letter and this song for you
And we'll write once a day and float it through the sea to you.
(I saw this field that grew perfection full of things you do)
We'll regret all those things we thought of but didn't ever do
When the sky seems to clear who will then be left, but a few, me and you.
(I held your hand and sat there knowing that we'd make it through)

More Nights (The Starting Line)
Here it goes and this won't take long just let me dedicate a song,
To a girl that turned this boy to stone.
Getting over a three leaf clover that I thought was four.
It's just the same as before.

It's a tragic case of bad taste but it's all concerning you.
Who truly can appreciate the mess you've made.
(Sweetheart, I hope that you know I'm wondering where you are.)
You say this could work someday when you and I both know this is the end.

What can I say?
Where's that girl from last night who slept on that side and looks just like you?

I've got stars in my great big sky,
(You can sleep in your own bed tonight sleep away a silent pain screaming out my name)
I shall gaze upon without leaving small ones behind.
Some were satellites, others planes.
Some were twinkling while others were fading away.
(Sleep in your own bed tonight, I hope for your sake you don't wake up as broken as I am)

I guess the most that I can do is make a call and tell you the truth.
Sing the words in melody and hope that you believe me.
You'll leave me here to die here's the things I meant but I never said:

It's just what I've been going through,
More nights of hugging my pillow.

Sing this song for me and tell me how you'll never leave my side.
(Can I sell this sunrise in return for a sunset, yeah?)
I'll meet you at 7. I miss you already, goodbye to you.
(Can I just stay here one more day until my sunburn fades away?)

I'm gonna tear your ass up like we just got married and you're all mine now.
Tonight is the night we've been waiting for all our lives or maybe for just tonight.
Sleep in your own bed tonight I know someday that you will wake up as lonely as I am.
(You're not only losing me, you're losing whats in store.)

If this is what you want then I'm gonna get it to you.
(Are you alone? Oh no.)
'Cause I want to show you the things that you never knew.
(Surprise, surprise.)
If this is what you want I'll get closer to you.
(I'll swing from a streetlight.)
And then I'll make you sing cause that's what you do, oh.

Cause fate works both ways
(Mark your words with confidence.)
Cause fate works both ways.
21 and I'm already hazy,
(Please, don't leave me without saying goodbye.)
You're all caught up after sleeping for days.
(Do you miss her so bad it hurts?)
Makes up for nights you spent awake.
It will take awhile to see that smile,
(We can't go wrong)
That's laid dormant since she’s gone.
The worst is over you can have the best of me.
(We can't go wrong)

The Rooms Too Cold (The Early November)
Bring in the past.
I've got all these memories that you can't see.
And nothing's ever hurt so much for me.
With nights like this all I want to hold onto,
I watch it fade away.

Your smile's like the sun to me,
(We lost our way back home.)
But when I learn to make heat,
(I can't believe my bones,)
All I can see is the smiles fall asleep.
(And now you've got everything.)

Can't you see the wall you built for me?
It sounds the same to you and me.
I don't want you to love me anymore.

Your smile's like the sun to me
(We lost our way back home.)
But when I learn to make heat
(I can't believe my bones)
All I can see is the smiles fall asleep
(And now you've got everything)

I never was everything you ever dreamed.
We always knew that you worked better.
Cause we're not special.
No we're not special.
Well I'm not special, no.
Just another sweep and it'll be fine.

Your smile's like the sun to me.
(We lost our way back home.)
But when I learn to make heat,
(I can't believe my bones)
All I can see is the smiles fall asleep
(And now you've got everything)

But now you're scared.
And now you're scared.
But never wrong, but never wrong.
And your whole life, it's all your fault.

(I don't care. I care too much.)
With every word again, we find our way through this.

Oh you know I'll forget so quick.
You know I always forget.
I know wrong and right is off tonight.

Tell All Your Friends This Is Where You Want To Be (Taking Back Sunday)
Your lipstick, his collar, don't bother angel,
I know exactly what goes on.
September never stays this cold,
Where I come from and you know I'm not one for complaining.

So sick, so sick of being tired and oh so tired of being sick.
We're both such magnificent liars so crush me baby, I'm all ears.
So obviously desperate, so desperatly obvious.
I'll give in one more time and feed you stupid lines all about it's basic.

We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
(He's smoked out in the back of the van,)
We won't stand for...
(Says he's held up with holding on and on and on and on and on.)
We won't stand for hazy eyes anymore.
(He's smoked out in the back of the van,)
We won't stand for...
(Says he's held up with holding on and on and on and on and on.)
Your eyes anymore.

So, scream I heard about your message, 
And how it reeked of your indifference, 
It bleeds horizontal straight from your wrist.
(So scream louder now.)
I'm bound to come around about,
(I'm bound to come around.) 
But can’t you, can’t you feel it rolling off your lips?
Tensing up your shoulders c’mon say it...

It's love, make it hurt.
It's love, it's love, it's love.
(Just forget me, it's that simple.)
It's love, make it hurt.
It's love, it's love, it's love.
(Just forget me, it's that simple.)

Well I never knew, well you never told me.
(Why can't I feel anything from)
Everything you know about breaking hearts
You learned from me, it's true.
(Anyone other than you)
I've never done it with the style and grace you have.
(You, you, you, you)

Best friends means I pulled the trigger.
Best friends means you get what you deserve.
(And all of this was all your fault)
Best friends means I pulled the trigger.
Best friends means you get what you deserve.
(And all of this.)

It's times like these where silence means everything,
(If I'm just bad news then you're a liar)
And no one is to know about this.
(If I'm just bad news then you're a liar)
It's a campaign of distraction,
(If I'm just bad news then you're a liar)
And revisionist history.
(If I'm just bad news then pull the trigger)

So get up, get up come on, come on, lets go 
(So pace the stairs to your apartment,)
There’s just a few things I think you should know,
(Like it's where you wanna be.)
Those words at best were worse than teenage poetry.
The truth is you could slit my throat,
(September never stays this cold,)
And with my one last gasping breath,
(Where I come from and I'm not one for complaining)
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt.

But I love the way you’d roll,
(We wont stand for hazy eyes anymore)
Excuses off the tip of your tongue.
(We won't stand more)
As I slowly fall apart. 
(Slowly, quietly, slowly) 

You always come close but you never come easy.
(I'm coming over but it never was enough. I thought it through and my worst bring out the best in you.)
I still know everything.
I still know everything, I still know.

You're down for selling me out.
(You're hoping but the best but this never comes easy.)
While I play dumb, it's cool cause I let you.
Thought I'd never catch you.
You say we're only friends,
Yeah, real good friends I bet I bet.

Why can't I feel anything from...
That's right, he said...
That's right, he said it.
That's right, he said:

Scream, older and wiser
(One of us never did it but we're taking it all.)
Stilled filled with resentment
(Tell me why you never promised that you wanted it all.)
We get it, we get it,
(And her eyes never batted when she said it)
And I havent been happier since.
(It's an all night, open, know it)
Scream, older and wiser
(Just ask the questions, come untie the knot.)
Still filled with resentment
(Say you wont care)
We get it, we get it, oh.
(Say you wont care)

Drop everything start it all over.
(We're gonna die like this you know, miserable and old.)
Remember more than you'd like to forget.
(I really gotta hand it to you, I really gotta hand it to you.)
I always hoped to avoid the issues
(Are you positive?)
Got me alone so I could address you
(Absolutely sure?)
Home is where you make it love,
(Well just get dressed don't do this.)
Don't get yourself confused.
(Well just get dressed don't do this.)

She says live up to your first impression 
(I said, I'm gonna have myself in shambles)
Well my best side was your worst invention 
(Before your folks are up and looking for some answers.)
Why can't you live without the attention?
(Said, I'm gonna have myself in shambles)
Why can't you live without the attention?
(Before your folks are up and looking for some answers.)
She says live up to your first impression
(Come on, just say it)
Well my best side was your worst invention
Why can't you live without the attention?
(I need you defenseless, dependent and alone.)
Why can't you live without the attention?

I said, I'm gonna have myself in shambles
(Drop everything, start it all over.)
Before your folks are up and looking for some answers.
(Remember more than you'd like to forget.)
I said, I'm gonna have myself in shambles.

Drop everything start it all over.
Remember more than you'd like to forget.

This glass house is breaking down,
You light the match, I'll stick around.
I'll give you everything you want,
And wish the worst of what I was.
This glass house is burning down,
You light the match, I'll stick around.
I'll give you everything you want,
And wish the worst of what I was.

Baby Got Back
Lyrics orginally by Sir Mix-A-Lot
Some lyrics and music is Cute without the E (acoustic) by Taking Back Sunday

Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt It is so big,
She looks like one of those rap guys girlfriends who understand those rap guys.
And they only talk to her because she looks like a total prostitute, okay?
I mean her butt It's just so big.
I can't believe it's so round, it's just out there.
I mean, it's gross. Look at her she's just so black.

I like big butts and I can not lie, you other brothers can't deny.
That when a girl walks in with the itty bitty waste and a round thing in your face.
You get sprung, you wanna pull up front cause you notice that butt was stuffed.
Deep in the jeans she's wearing I'm hooked and I can't stop staring.
Oh baby I wanna get with you and take your picture.
My homeboys tried to warn me but with that butt you got me so horny.
Oh, rub all of the smooth skin you say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well use me, use me cause you ain't that average groupy.
I've seen them dancin' the hell with romancin' She sweat, wet, shes got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette.
I'm tired of magazines saying a flat butt's the only thing,
Take the average black man and ask him that; she gotta pack much back.

So fellas (yeah), fellas (yeah)
Has your girlfriends got the butt? (Hell yeah)
Well shake it, shake it, shake that healthy butt.
Baby got back.
Baby got back.

I like'em round and big and when I'm throwin' a gig I just can't help myself (help myself).
I'm actin like an animal, now here's my scandal (here's my scandal):

I wanna get you home and ugh, double ugh.
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy cause silicone parts were made for toys.
I want em real thick and juicy so find that juicy double.
Mix-alot's in trouble, beggin' for a piece of that bubble.
So I'm looking at rock videos watching these bimbos walking like hoes.
You can have them bimbos so I'll keep my women like Flo-Jo.
A word to the thick soul sisters; I wanna get with you or hit you.
But I gotta be straight when I wanna fuck,
Til the break of dawn baby, I got it goin on.
A lot of pimps won't like this song cause them punks like to hit it and quit it.
But I'd rather stay and play cause I'm long and I'm strong and I'm down to get the friction.

So ladies (yeah?), ladies (yeah?)
If you wanna role in my Mercedes (hellz yeah)
Then turn around, stick it out; even white boys got to shout.
Baby got back.
Baby got back.

Yeah, baby when it comes to females,
Cosmo and I got nothin to do with my selection 36-24-36,
Only if she's like 5'3.

So your girlfriend rolls a Honda Playin' workout tapes by Fonda
(When everything you'll get is everything that you wanted,)
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
(Well which would you prefer?)
My anaconda don't want none unless you've got buns hon.
(My finger on the trigger or)
You can do side bends or sit-ups, but please don't lose that butt.
(Me face down, down across your floor.)
Some brothers wanna play that hard role and tell you that the butt need to go.
(Me face down, down across your floor.)
So they toss it and leave it and I pull up quick to retrieve it,
So Cosmo says you're fat? Well I ain't down with that.
Cause your waste is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin' to the bean-pole dames in the magazines you ain't it Miss Thang.
Give me a sista I can't resist her Red beans and rice didn't miss her.
Some knucklehead tried to dis cause his girls were on my list
(Why can't I feel anything from)
He had game but he chose to hit 'em and I pulled up quick to get with 'em.
(Anyone other than you.)

So ladies (yeah?) if the butt is round, (yeah?)
And you wanna triple X throw down (hellz yeah)
Dial 9-100-mix-alot and kick them nasty thoughts.
Baby got back.

I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
For this simple reason
(Baby got back)
I just need to keep you in mind
As something larger than life
(Baby got back)
Your lipstick, his collar; don't bother angel.
I know exactly what goes on.
(Why can't I feel anything from anyone)
Babys got back

Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta
Originally by the Geto Boys

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
A real gangsta-ass nigga plays his cards right
A real gangsta-ass nigga never runs his fuckin mouth
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas don't start fights
And niggas always gotta hit high cap
Showin' all his boys how he shot em
But real gangsta-ass niggas don't flex nuts
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas know they got em
And everything is cool in the mind of a gangsta
Cuz gangsta-ass niggas think deep
Up three-sixty-five a year 24/7
Cuz real gangsta ass niggas don't sleep
And all I gotta say to you
Wannabe, gonnabe, cocksuckin', pussy-eatin' prankstas
Cuz when the shit fry dies down what the fuck you gonna do
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
Feedin' the poor and hepin out wit they bills
Although I was born in Jamaica
Now I'm in the US makin' deals
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
I mean one that you don't really know
Ridin' around town in a drop-top Benz
Hittin' switches in my black six-fo'
Now gangsta-ass niggas come in all shapes and colors
Some got killed in the past
But this gangtsa here is a smart one
Started living for the lord and I'll last
Now all I gotta say to you
Wannabe, gonnabe, pussy-eatin' cocksuckin' prankstas
When the shit jumps off what the fuck you gonna do
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
A real gangta-ass nigga knows the play
Real gangsta-ass niggas get the flyest of the bitches
Ask that gangsta-ass nigga Little Jake
Now bitches look at gangsta-ass niggas like a stop sign
And play the role of Little Miss Sweet
But catch the bitch all alone get the digit take her out
and then dump-hittin' the ass with the meat
Cuz gangsta-ass niggas be the gang playas
And everythings quiet in the clique
A gangsta-ass nigga pulls the trigger
And his partners in the posse ain't tellin' off shit
Real gangsta-ass niggas don't talk much
All ya hear is the black from the gun blast
And real gangsta-ass niggas don't run for shit
Cuz real gangsta-ass niggas can't run fast
Now when you in the free world talkin' shit do the shit
Hit the pen and let the mothafuckas shank ya
But niggas like myself kick back and peep game
Cuz damn it feels good to be a gangsta

And now, a word from the President!
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta
Gettin voted into the White House
Everything lookin good to the people of the world
But the Mafia family is my boss
So every now and then I owe a favor gettin' down
like lettin' a big drug shipment through
And send 'em to the poor community
So we can bust you know who
So voters of the world keep supportin' me
And I promise to take you very far
Other leaders better not upset me
Or I'll send a million troops to die at war
To all you Republicans, that helped me win
I sincerely like to thank you
Cuz now I got the world swingin' from my nuts
And damn it feels good to be a gangsta

In The Club
Originally by 50-Cent

Go, go, go, go Go, go, go shawty
It's your birthday We gon' party like it's yo birthday
We gon' sip Bacardi like it's your birthday
And you know we don't give a fuck if It's not your birthday!

You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
Look mami I got the x if you into taking drugs 
I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love
So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed 

When I pull out up front, you see the Benz on dubs,
When I roll 20 deep, it's 20 knives in the club
Niggas heard I fuck with Dre, now they wanna show me love
When you sell like Eminem, and the hoes they wanna fuck
But homie ain't nothing change hold down, G's up I see Xzibit
in the Cutt that nigga roll that weed up
If you watch how I move you'll mistake me for a playa or pimp
Been hit wit a few shells but I dont walk wit a limp
In the hood then the ladies saying '50 you hot'
They like me, I want them to love me like they love 'Pac
But holla in New York them niggas'll tell ya i'm loco
And the plan is to put the rap game in a choke hold
I'm feelin' focused man, my money on my mind
I got a mill out the deal and I'm still on the grind
Now shawty said she feeling my style, she feeling my flow 
Her girlfriend wanna get bi and they ready to go

You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
Look mami I got the x if you into taking drugs 
I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love
So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed

My flow, my show brought me the doe that bought me all my fancy things 
My crib, my cars, my pools, my jewels look nigga I got K-Mart and I ain't change

And you should love it, way more then you hate it
Nigga you mad? I thought that you'd be happy I made it
I'm that cat by the bar toasting to the good life
You that faggot ass nigga trying to pull me back right?
When my junk get to pumpin in the club it's on
I wink my eye at ya bitch, if she smiles she gone
If the roof on fire, let the motherfucker burn
If you talking bout money homie, I ain't concerned
I'm a tell you what Banks told me cause go 'head switch the style up
If the niggas hate then let 'em hate watch the money pile up
Or we go upside there wit a bottle of bub, you know where we fucking be.

You can find me in the club, bottle full of bub
Look mami I got the x if you into taking drugs 
I'm into having sex, I ain't into making love
So come give me a hug if you into to getting rubbed

Don't try to act like you ain't know where we been either nigga
In the club all the time nigga, its about to pop off nigga

Forgot About Dre
Lyrics originally by Dr. Dre & Eminem
Music is Screaming Infidelities by Dashboard Confessional

Y'all know me, still the same O.G. but I been low key
Hated on by most these niggaz wit no cheese, no deals and no G's
No wheels and no keys, no boats no snowmobiles, and no ski's
Mad at me cause I can finally afford to provide my family wit groceries
Got a crib wit a studio and it's all full of tracks to add to the wall full of plaques
Hangin up in the office in back of my house like trophies
Did y'all think I'ma let my dough freeze? Hoe please you better bow down on both knees
Who you think taught you to smoke trees?
Who you think brought you the oldies? The Eazy-E's, Ice Cube's, and D.O.C's
The Snoop D-O-double-G's and the group that said mother-"Fuck Tha Police"
Gave you a tape full of dope beats to bump when you stroll through in your hood
And when your album sales wasn't doin too good who's the Doctor they told you to go see?
Y'all better listen up closely all you niggaz that said that I turned pop, or The Firm flopped
Y'all are the reason that Dre ain't been gettin no sleep So FUCK Y'ALL, all of y'all; if y'all don't like me, BLOW ME!
Y'all are gonna keep fuckin around wit me and turn me back to the old me

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got somethin to say
But nothin comes out when they move their lips; just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre


So what do you say to somebody you hate or anyone tryin to bring trouble your way?
Wanna resolve things in a bloodier way? Then just study a tape of N.W.A.!
One day I was walkin by, wit a Walkman on, when I caught a guy give me an awkward eye (What you lookin at?)
And strangled him off in the parkin lot, wit his Karl Kani
I don't give a fuck if it's dark or not I'm harder than me tryin to park a Dodge when I'm drunk as fuck
Right next to a humungous truck in a two-car garage
Hoppin out wit two broken legs, tryin to walk it off "Fuck you too bitch, call the cops!"
I'ma kill you and them loud ass motherfuckin barkin dogs
And when the cops came through me and Dre stood next to a burnt down house
Wit a can full of gas and a hand full of matches and still weren't found out (RIGHT HERE)
From here on out it's the Chronic 2 Startin today and tomorrow's the new
And I'm still loco enough To choke you to death wit a Charleston Chew
Slim shady - hotter then a set of twin babies in a Mercedes Benz wit the windows up when the temp goes up to the mid 80's
Callin men ladies; sorry Doc but I been crazy There's no way that you can save me.
It's okay, go with him Hailey (Da-da?)

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got somethin to say
But nothin comes out when they move their lips; its just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre

If it was up to me, you muh'fuckers would stop comin up to mewit your hands out lookin up to me Like you want somethin free
When my last CD was out, you wasn't bumpin me But now that I got this little company
Everybody wanna come to me like it was some disease But you won't get a crumb from me
Cause I'm from the streets of Compton I told em all - all them little gangstas Who you think helped mold 'em all?
Now you wanna run around talkin bout guns like I ain't got none
What you think I sold 'em all? Cause I stay well off Now all I get is hate mail all day sayin Dre fell off
What cause I been in the lab wit a pen and a pad tryin to get this damn label off?
I ain't havin that; this is the millenium of Aftermath
Nothin after that So give me one more platinum plaque and fuck rap! You can have it back
So where's all the Madd Rappers at? It's like a jungle in this habitat
But all you savage cats, know that I was strapped wit gats when you were cuddlin a Cabbage Patch

Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got somethin to say
(You hair is everywhere screaming infidelities and taking its wear)
But nothin comes out when they move their lips; just a bunch of gibberish
And motherfuckers act like they forgot about Dre

Party Up In Here
Lyrics originally by D.M.X.

Y'all gon' make me lose my mind up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me go all out up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me act a fool up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me lose my cool up in here, up in here.

If I gotsta bring it to you cowards then it's gonna be quick, aight 
All your mens up in the jail before, suck my dick 
And all them other cats you run with, get done with, dumb quick 
How the fuck you gonna cross the dog with some bum shit? 
There go the gun click, nine one one shit all over some dumb shit, ain't that some shit 
Y'all niggaz remind me of a strip club, cause everytime you come around, 
it's like what I just gotta get my dick sucked 
And I don't know who the fuck you think you talkin to but I'm not him, aight slim? So watch what you do 
Or you gon' find yourself, buried next to someone else and we all thought you loved yourself 
But that couldn't have been the issue, or maybe they just sayin that, now cause they miss you  Shit a nigga tried to diss you 
That's why you layin on your back, lookin at the roof of the church Preacher tellin the truth and it hurts 

Y'all gon' make me lose my mind up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me go all out up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me act a fool up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me lose my cool up in here, up in here.

Off the chain I leave niggaz soft in the brain cause niggaz still want the fame, 
off the name First of all, you ain't rapped long enough to be fuckin with me and you, you ain't strong enough 
So whatever it is you puffin on that got you think that you 
Superman I got the Kryptonite, should I smack him with my dick and the mic? 
Y'all niggaz is characters, not even good actors What's gon' be the outcome? Hmm, let's add up all the factors 
You wack, you're twisted, your girl's a hoe you're broke, the kid ain't yours, and e'rybody know 
Your old man say you stupid, you be like, "So? I love my baby mother, I never let her go"
I'm tired of weak ass niggaz whinin over pussy that don't belong to them, man fuck is wrong with them? 
They fuck it up for real niggaz like my mans and them who get it on on the strength of the hands with them, man

Y'all gon' make me lose my mind up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me go all out up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me lose my cool up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me act a fool up in here, up in here.

I bring down rains so heavy it curse the head 
No more talkin - put him in the dirt instead 
You keep walin - lest you tryin to end up red 
Cause if I end up fed, y'all end up dead 
Cause youse a soft type nigga  Fake up 
North type nigga Puss like a soft white nigga 
Dog is a dog, blood's thicker than water We done been through the mud and we quicker to slaughter 
The bigger the order, the more guns we brought out  We run up in there, e'rybody come out, don't nobody run out 
Sun in to sun out, I'ma keep the gun out  Nigga runnin his mouth? I'ma blow his lungs out 
Listen, yo' ass is about to be missin You know who gon' find you? Some old man fishin 
Grandma wishin your soul's at rest but it's hard to digest with the size of the hole in your chest

Y'all gon' make me lose my mind up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me go all out up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me act a fool up in here, up in here.
Y'all gon' make me lose my cool up in here, up in here.

One.. two.. meet me outside meet me outside, yo meet me outside 
All my rought Ry-DERS gon' meet me outside meet me outside, meet me outside 
All my big ball-ERS gon' meet me outside meet me outside, meet me outside 
All my fly lad-IES gon' meet me outside meet me outside, meet me outside 
All my street street peoples meet me outside meet me outside, outside motherfucker

 Emo Paradise
Parody of Coolios' Gangstas Paradise

As I walk in the corner in the shadows alone,
I take a look at my life and realize she's gone.
Cause I've been crying and crying so long that even my mama thinks my mind is gone.
But I haven't ever crossed a boy that didn't deserve it. 
Me being treated like a loser, you know that's unheard of.
I better watch I'm talking and where I'm walking, 
Or I might just end up with tears falling like stars from my eyes.
I really hate to say but I'm all alone, 
As I Play Cracks in the Sky I see myself in the mirror.
I'm the kinda emo kid no one wants to be like,
On my knees in the night, crying quiet in the street light.

We've been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Look at the situation she got me facing: 
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by Dashboard Confessional
But I gotta be down with the cool kids,
Too much television watching got me chasing dreams.
I'm a educated emo with heart break on my mind
Got my pen in my hand and a tear in my eye
I'm a silly white kids who left here all alone
And my friends aren't there, so I can't call it home
Death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away
I'm living life do or die man, what can I say?
I'm wishing for her now but will I live to see her be with me?
The way things are going I don't know.

Tell me why is she so blind to see that the one she hurts is always me.

We've been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Crying in the night, night into the morning
Morning after morning, heartbreak after morning.
Everybody is running but half of them don't know,
What's going on in the kitchen but I don't know what's cookin.
They say I have to learn but nobody's here to teach me.
If they can't understand me, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't, I guess they don't, I guess I'm fucked.
That's why I know my life means nothing to you

We've been spending most of our lives, living in the emo paradise.

Tell me why is she so blind to see that the one she hurts is always me.

MC Emo
so sing along with love
until you both forget the words
and keep yourself deeply emerged
with every sound that can't be heard
'till what you loved is broken clocks
and time is left there, frozen, stopped
for all you have to see
for all the heartbroken to be, alone

and the sky, although it weeps for you
there's not a thing that i could do
to change the spot their tears
assaulted the pavement 'till it was as faulted
and cracked and broken as your concrete heart
don't let your life be ripped apart
about someone who means nothing to you
you're just a spec of the photograph someone else takes
with the main part, it's bleeding off the page
and i hope you find there's beauty in simplicity
and i hope you can still find some beauty in me

and my middle name is heartbroken from girls
the ones i choose always seem to hurl
my emotions all around like they were
nowhere to be found
it's so confusing to me something like this
to happen to a G?!
shit gangsta i don't care
i'll just go rap and like drink some beer
and i sing: "my emo brings boys to the yard 
my emo is better than yours
my emo rap brings gangstas to the yard, nigga
my rap is better than yours"
cause you ain't got one!

so i flash the westside sign to show i'm down
and the gangsta looks at me and frowns
says "oh silly white boy acting like they can play the game
he asked me, andrew, do you even have a real rapper name?!"
i said hellz yeah, it's mc emo...

then he was just like shut up
and he like called his gang over 
which was like composed of like 5 other black guys
and they had like the whole package, like bling and they were buff shit
and they put me in a trash can like head first down
legs hanging out and you're like whoa
and i was like, pshh you guys are just jealous...
and he's goes alright; 

mc emo what's up with that
that name is really whack
and i was like yeah what about little jon,
do you really have a little jon?
he was like yo i'm not little jon i'm mike jones
and i'm like, pshh that doesn't mean that you own
and he's like, touche emo kid, touche!
nigga what?!

I Know The Ever So Sweet Sum And Substance Of My Evil
I Can Make A Mess Like Nobodys Business:The Early November

We all knew this day was coming
Our bitter hearts can hear it calling us
So proud of what you've done
So proud of who you are
It's the standing tall next to all the buildings
And filling up with all the reasons why you should never trust yourself
The way to fool yourself; I'm fooled.

It's those nights alone where your driving
And the sky just looks a little funny
Your thinking of the worst, you figure out the worst
Right after you figure it all out you find a way to straighten your head out
But what if you are wrong and the world is adding up?
It's throwing signs from random places
To keep you at your toes so you don't figure it out, before you figure it out

We fall to our knees and beg.
The words are gone; it's just a thought.
And we fall to our knees and beg.
It's just a thought.

Can't you see the wall you built for me?
Can't you see the wall you built for me?
Can't you see the wall you built for me?
Cause we're not special.
We're not special, we're not special.
No, I'm not special, I'm not special.

We fall to our knees and, and we beg.
(Our bitter hearts can hear it calling us
So proud of what we've done)
And we fall.

Konstantine On Prom Night
Straylight Run:Something Corporate

When the sun came up,
We were sleeping and sunk inside our blankets,
Sprawled across the bed.
It's always you and my big dreams.

There are moments when,
When I know it and the world revolves around us.
And we're keeping it, keep it all going.
This delicate balance, now would you let me go?
And you don't want to be here in the future
So you say the present's just a pleasant interruption to the past
And you don't want to look much closer
Cause you're afraid to find out all the hope
That we had sent into the sky by now had crashed
And it did because of me

And then you bring me home
(Sing like you think no one's listening)
Afraid to find out that you're alone, no
(You would kill for this, just a little bit)
And I'm sleeping in your living room
(Sing like you think no one's listening)
But we don't have much room to live
(You would kill for this.)

And I had dreams that I might learn to fall in love.
Way cross the country, become a rockstar
And there was hope in me that I could take you there
But dammit you're so young yet I don't think I care
But if I hurt you then I'm sorry
It's just this guilt has got the best of me.

And then you bring me home,
(Sing like you think no one's listening)
Cause we both know what it's like to be alone.
(You would kill for this, just a little bit)
And I'm dreaming in your living room,
(Sing like you think no one's listening)
But we don't have much room to live,
(You would kill for this.)

Just a little bit, you would kill for this.
Just a little bit, you would, you would..

Sing me something soft, sad and delicate,
Loud and out of key, sing me anything.
Sing me something soft, sad and delicate,
Loud and out of key, sing me anything.
We're one with what we've lost
We're glad for what we've got,
Our whole lives laid out right in front of us,
Sing like you think no one's listening,
And no one's listening.

Konstantine came walking down the stairs
Doesn't she look good standing in her underwear?
And I've been thinking, and I've thinking, no
But she's been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere
My Konstantine came walking down the stairs
And all that I could do was touch her long blonde hair
And I was thinking, what I was dreaming yeah
We've been singing and it never got me anywhere

Sing like you think no one's listening.

This is because I can spell confusion with a K and I can like it
It's to dying in another's arms and why I had to try it
It's to Straylight Run and those nights in my car
But the first star you see might not be a star.
I'm not your star?
Isn't that what you said what you thought this song meant.

And if this is what it takes just to lie in my mistakes,
And live with what I did to you and all the hell I put you through.
I always catch the clock it's 11:11 and now you want to talk.
It's not hard to dream, you'll always be my Konstantine.
Oh, they'll never hurt you like I do, no.
They'll never hurt you like I do, no.

This is to a girl who got into my head with all these pretty things she did.
Hey baby, you know that you keep me up in bed.
This is to a girl who got into my head with all the fucked up things she says.
Hey maybe baby, you could keep me up in bed, My Konstantine.
Just spin around me like a dream
We played out on this movie screen and I said:

Did you know I missed you?
(Sing like you think no ones listening.)
God, I miss you.

And then you bring me home,
And we go to sleep, but this time no alone.
And you kiss me in your living room.
And you see that I've been singing in my living room.
Cause this is what i miss, you're what I miss in my living room.
But we don't have much room.
But does anybody need that room?
Cause we all need a little bit more room to live.
My Konstantine.

That's So Clark Gable
Rocket Summer:Postal Service

I was waiting for a cross-town train in the London underground when it struck me.
That I've been waiting since birth to find a love that would look and sound like a movie.
So I changed my plans and rented a camera and a van and then I called you.
I need you to pretend that we are in love again and you agreed to.

I want so badly to believe that there is truth, that love is real.
(Cause you don't know how much I, I need you please don't go.)
And I want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd.
(You're so wonderful; this I swear, this I know.)

So I greased the lens and framed the shot using a friend as my stand-in.
The script it called for rain but it was clear that day so we faked it.
The marker snapped and I yelled quiet on the set and then called action.
And I kissed you in a style that Clark Gable would've admired; I thought it classic/

I want so badly to believe that there is truth, that love is real.
(Cause you don't know how much I, I need you please don't go.)
And I want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd.
(You're so wonderful; this I swear, this I know.)

So thanks for your help.
You shine so bright.
You are the star that's in my sky
I am yours and you are mine.

I know you're wise beyond your years, but do you ever get the fear
(You, oh you, every single thing you do I'm so proud of you.)
That your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by?
(You, oh you, every single thing you do, that's so you.)

Pictures Of Shorelines Are For Lovers
Further Seems Forever:Hawthorne Heights

If you insist on pictures of shorelines,
Then I insist on pages of your lines meant for me to be sent to me.
Remember watching the storms from the lifeguard stand?
Remember feeling the tingling in my fingertips when I touched your lips?
(And on and on)

And I recall how you sat on the same side of me,
It always seemed that you'd always be on my side.
You're my best side.

And it's early June, so the sand's still dry,
And you have got the boldest eyes,
(And I can't make it on my own)
And I can't help but think it's right,
That inside you it's me I'll find.
And I can't help but think it's right,
That inside you it's me I'll find.
(Cut my wrist and black my eyes.)
And I'm still waiting.

And it's early June, so the sand's still dry,
And the storm off shore is not far behind.
And I'm still waiting.

Spare me just three last words.
I love you is all she heard.
I'll wait for you, but I can't wait forever.

And sometimes you don't say a thing for a long while.
And the ships off shore hold stories that we'd make.
And sometimes we are held at bay by these miles.
But less of you is more than I can take.
(My final breath is gone.)

And the moments that we've shared could last a lifetime.
And the faith I have in us will keep you near.
And several of these miles placed in between us
(So cut my wrist and black my eyes so I can't sleep tonight.)
mean several of these words being sent by mail.
I hope this letter finds you well.
(I can't make it on my own. 

So cut my wrist or die because you kill me.
You know you do, you kill me well.
You like it too, and I can tell.
You never stop until my final breath is gone.

Living In Your Letter
Dashboard Confessional:Onelinedrawing

There's your letter.
There's you on my floor.
There's you in the corner.
There's me wondering what this is for.
Have you finally met her?
Is it to say you wish for me only the best?
I hope you never get her.
I hope now there's nothing left.

I read your letter.
I read it five times now.
I still don't get it.
All this shit about memories and you and me,
And the way it used to be,
And how you half regret it,
And how it feels so good to get it off your chest.

Oh I need a letter.
(Pouring over photographs)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
I don't need a letter to help me remember,
(I'm living in your letters.)
What is not and what was never mine.
Oh I need a letter.
(Breathe deeply from this envelope)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
(That smells like you and I can't be without the scent)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
(It's filling me with all you mean to me.)

I still got your letter.
It's sweating in my hands.
With a note that says come get her,
She was never in love again.
She's waiting in line again.

Phonecalls from further away but I don't ever tell you this distance seems terrible.
And to test my heart with useless space,
These roads go on forever they'll always be a place for you in my heart.

Oh I need a letter.
(Pouring over photographs)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
I don't need a letter to help me remember,
(I'm living in your letters.)
What is not and what was never mine.
Oh I need a letter.
(Breathe deeply from this envelope)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
(That smells like you and I can't be without the scent)
I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.
(It's filling me with all you mean to me.)

I hope you never get it.
Oh I need a letter.
I need a letter but not that kind.

So I'll hit the pavement it's gotta be better than waiting
And pushing you far away cause I'm scared.
So I'll take my chances and head on my way up there.
Cause turning to you is like falling in love when you're ten.

I hope you never get it.

I Never Meant A Lack Of Color
Death Cab For Cutie:American Football

Let's just forget everything said.
Everything we did, best friends, better halves, and goodbyes.
And the autumn night when we realized we were falling out of love

There were some things that were said that weren't meant,
Like we never did.

Not to be overly dramatic,
(There were some things that were said that weren't meant)
I just think it's best cause you can't miss what you forget.

To call at 7:03 and on your machine I slur a plea for you to come home.
But I know it's too late.
But I should have given you a reason to stay
Given you a reason to stay.
Given you a reason to stay.
Given you a reason to stay.

So let's just pretend everything and anything,
Between you and me was never meant.

Attention. Attention.

If only, if only for one second.

Well this table has taken a turn for the worst.
Rock bottom and over the edge

To the fact that we could have something that'll never happen.
Will you hear what I have to..?

This balance has weighed out our heart's desire.
I'm trying to make it alone.
Well it's not like it hurts that much anyway.
Upside down and inside out.
When I leave here I'm going alone.
But I'm dying, I'm dying to touch.

Goodbye to you in the story light

Play Crack The Sun
Brand New:Mae

I'm a mess, I guess.
It's what I asked for, it's what I needed.
Well, you know me better than that,
Or at least you did and something happened.
But once again something's happened.
The confidence you held in us is the rope we almost hung ourselves with.
At times I wonder if we really took the steps to break right through it.
I know that there were better days but to see the light and to feel the rays.
Life was always back and forth and we were idling or making useless progress.

Waiting for the rain to stop.
Destination: beautiful.
Seems that I'm still waiting for the sun.
Someday will come back to us, if you're willing let it go.
Why won't you just let this be your sun?


I'll ask you what in the world should we do?
This light is green our break is through.
Are we not trying or are we trying too hard.
Well you know I never want to miss,
I hold on tight and reminisce but it's bittersweet to me.
When time stands still as it's trapped inside
The letterbox you gave back to me.
But I'm the one who keeps on reading.
I'm the first to speak.
And you're the last to know.
Another scene that we're creating,
Now I need to know if we're still making useless progress.

Waiting for the rain to stop.
Destination: beautiful.
Seems that I'm still waiting for the sun.
Someday will come back to us, if you're willing let it go.
Why won't you just let this be your sun?

(This is the end.)
This story's old but it goes on and on until we disappear,
(This is the calm.)
Calm me and let me taste the salt you breathed while you were underneath,
(We are the risen.)
I am the one who haunts your dreams of mountains sunk below the sea,
(After the storm.)
I spoke the words but never gave a thought of what they all could mean,
(Rest in the sea.)
I know that this is what you want, a funeral keeps both of us apart.
(Washed up on the beach.)
You know that you are not alone, I need you like water in my lungs.

Gotta Get Away

Have you thought about the way you make me feel?
Screw you.

I've gotta get away I can't have you.

You're bad to the bone but you cry at home.
Me too.
I cannot be alive unless I have you.
But...

...And The Skeletons Play
By the gate under the stars and moon she stood alone.
A rose colored cloud split the sky and we just drift along.

And the skeletons play as we're wishing our souls away.
And the skeletons play into another day.

I felt afraid for me, I felt no longer free.
I could not forget last night when I was taken by surprise.

And the skeletons play as we're wishing our souls away.
And the skeletons play into another day.

Can't you hear them?
Can't you feel them?
They creep up behind you right when you least expect it.
And they ask for your soul and you have no chance.
You have no choice but to give it to them.
And they have it for eternity and you die.
You die a slow painful death as a thousand skeletons consume your body, decomposing it.
And you die and black ensues everything.
And the land is no more as we die.
And you die as we've died.

Give
Give me strength.
Give me life.
Give me hope.
Give me love. 
And I promise I'll give it back to you.

I hear you calling my name from a distance.
And I'm coming as fast as I can.
Yeah, I'm coming as fast as I can.
I see the light but I'm not scared.
I see your light but I'm not scared.

The Chad LP - 02 - Chad For President
Let me tell you about a story about a man name Chad
Who had rad adventures up and down the country 
And he always knew the way
And how he had this really cool cape that was red, white, and blue
with stars and stripes and a couple of strippers too
But none of them were naked.
No, none of them were showign naughty partys.
And there was not a one who didn't know Chads name, oh yeah.

Now Chads coming from town to town
Lighting things on fire and burning everything down
Oh no, it's Chads evil clone.
Chads never alone. There's someone trying to make people hate Chad.
But Chad comes around and beats the bad guy down
No evil never wins.
Chad finds a way.
Chads superman you say?
Well of course.

Chad for president. 

With Chad being the guy who runs the whole place
We'd probably already being living in outer space with 6 arms and 5 toes
With little green beds having sex all the time
But Chad would be mine
And aliens would come around from miles around from other galaxies and rule our town
But Chad would find a way.

Chad for president.

George H. W. Bush - Address to the Nation on Invasion of Iraq:

"Just two hours ago, allied air forces began an attack on military targets in Iraq and Kuwait.
These attacks continue as I speak. Ground forces are not engaged.
This conflict started August 2nd when the dictator of Iraq invaded a small and helpless neighbor.
Kuwait, a member of the Arab League and a member of the United Nations, was crushed; its people brutalized.
Five months ago, Saddam Hussein started this cruel war against Kuwait.
Tonight, the battle has been joined...We will not fail."

The Chad LP - 03 - Chad the Great
Once upon a time there was a man named Chad the Great.
And Chad the Great is still alive today.
So when you see him coming your way you better leave for the next town
Or he'll turn you gay like he did to me.

Oh, I do know what Chad did so.
And I know why the sheep couldn't sleep last night.
Why I woke down with my pants down; that's messed up.
But as long as it was Chad I guess it's fine.
It's fine.
He's fine, really fine.
He blows my mind.

Chad talked to me today.
He said "hey I'm still gay"
And I said man, I am too."
So I tried to kiss his lips. he just kicked me in the dick
And now I'm singing a song about how Chad kicked me in my gonads.

Oh yeah, I know what Chad did so.
And I know why your mom couldn't sleep last night.
And when he woke up his pants were down and that's fucked up.
And what the hell is this duck doing on my head?
Oh yeah, I guess he's fine.
I guess he's fine, really fine.
He blows my mind.
Sigh.

He's the end of the song.
I know it wasn't that long,
But I hope you liked it so.
And I want you to know I'm still in love with Chad.
And now I bit you farewell as I go and dream of Chad tonight.

He said it's running down your eyes.)

The Tragedy of Life
Shadows walk to reveal chalk outlines scribbled upon a concrete canvas.
White bends the light to smudge their fingers until they look like ghosts.

They look like ghost.

Ghost who have fallen apart.
There's something comforting about holding knives.
This could happen to you.
Underestimated this time still you're trusting about all of this.
Impolite; lying upon of the asphalt lifeless.

There's something slighty beautiful about the morbid sight of death.
Reminding us about how life can end up sometimes
And that this is the only flaw in our design: there are ghosts.
And that's what makes us perfect.

From 05-06 (For Trey)
I'm standing here right next to you but you seem so far away.
I see you crack a smile at me then you turn away.
I cried a little on the inside because what we once had.
The one I loved so much now only makes me sad.

I don't know what to do now I just want to leave this place.
I see your eyes and wonder why as tears run down my face.
You made me so happy when we were together.
Now we're far apart but you say it's for the better.

Maybe one day I will come across your mind.
Dig deep in your heart, our love is what you'll find.
I hope it happens soon cause it seems to be the trend.
I'll always love you until the very end.

I look into the sky and you're the one I see.
I hear your voice speak softy I feel you next to me.
This feeling is amazing I get it everyday.
And everynight I pray don't let it go away.

She makes my life so special.
She makes my life so grand.
She makes me feel amazing,
With just the touch of her hand.
I couldn't live without her. 
I don't want to even try.
She makes me want to jump with joy.
She makes me want to fly.

You make me feel invincible.
You make me feel invulnerable.

Maybe one day I will come across your mind.
Dig deep in your heart, our love is what you'll find.
I hope it happens soon cause it seems to be the trend.
But I will always love you.

You make me feel invincible.

The Soundclick.com Theme Song
I'd been searching for hours for a place to take my mind off things.
I thought I'd be looking forever 'till I came upon a site soothing,
With every type of feature that made think it was the future.
My jaw opened just like the final performance of American Idol,
That I could upload my music and listen to my favorites.

It must be soundclick.com,
It's better than a dream.
If you think sliced bread is great,
Then you haven't seen a thing.
It should be at soundclick.com,
On the front of every Zine.
And if disagree with me,
You shouldn't be walking the streets.

I've been shaking to the Pop Charts all through the morning,
Head banging with the Metal charts straight into the afternoon.
I've been bumping with the Hip-Hop, drowning out the roomies.
Then turned it to the Classics let Mozart ease my poor aching heart.
And I know that I can never find a place as close to home as here.
You're so cool you get a solo.

It must be soundclick.com,
It's better than a dream.
If you think sliced bread is great,
Then you haven't seen a thing.
It should be at soundclick.com,
On the front of every Zine.
And if disagree with me,
You shouldn't be walking the streets.

I love soundclick.com.
(I know that soundclick.com is better than a dream.)
You love soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com has more hold on me then gravity)
We love soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com is the best of remedies)
Your mom loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com is the reason that I breathe)
The guy down the street loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com it's better than a dream.)
George Bush loves soundclick.com.
(Soundclick.com makes me wanna scream)
The world loves soundclick.com.
(Cause it's better than a dream.)
The universe loves soundclick.com.

Here's to ten more years of the #1 artist community ever.

Memories
Take me so far away from this night.
Make me understand why you're always right.
And it's so unplausible how you're still adorable when you cry.
And I will never try again if it just make amends.
But until then...

Don't replay our memories with someone else.
And I know that I should have been there for you.
But I never was.

Now this moonlight just reminds me of my mistakes.
The ones you said that you'd always knew I'd make.
I guess it's ok if I just fade away from your life.
And what a better way to say our goodbyes.

But don't replay our memories with someone else.
I know I should have been there for you.
But I never was.

I've been rereading notes you wrote for me two years ago.
They say "I won't forget you in this distance."
You used to be so poetic.
Now you're only apathetic about our love.
And I can see that the hope in your eyes is gone.

Don't replay our memories with someone else.
I know I should have been there for you.
But I never was.
And don't replay our memories with someone else.
I know that I should have been there for you.
But I never was.

And I understand because I was never there at all.

Nothing Will Fade Us
You're a dream; one I could never conceive.
And you're all I have but you're all I need.
I write the same old songs with my broken voice,
But I'll always know you're my entire world.

And nothing can break us.
If the world falls apart, we'll wait out the storm.
And nothing will fade us.

I'll do everything for you without you asking me to.
Will you retrace the sky as I melt in your eyes?
Cause it reminds me of you the first time we met,
And I'll never forget what we said:

That nothing can break us.
If the world falls apart, we'll wait out the storm.
And nothing will fade us.

I've been waiting so long for you,
I'm obsessed with everything you do.
So please always be the same.

Hope
I was lost.
I was scared that there'd never be anyone there.
But there was hope for me that there'd be somebody to help me breathe.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

There is nothing wrong with you being my life.
Cause everything about you makes me feel alive.
Like the oceans in your eyes, the softness of your smile.
You'll keep me safe forever just by, just by staying in my arms.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

You're all I know.
You're all I want to know.
You're all I know.
You're all I'll ever, you're all I'll ever know.

And I can see the stars all shining for me,
So I can tell you everything.

I Miss You
There's something missing in this night time day dream
And we both know what it is.
Sometimes you get scared,
But I'll always understand.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.

You already have me and you know it,
Well I'm sorry you feel lonely.
I miss our highway drives and our marvelous nights
When your eyes outshine every star in the sky.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.

Whenever you're scared know I'll be there.
Whenever you feel alone know you're not.
Whenever you're crying remember us cuddling.
Whenever you miss me just kiss me.

Yeah, I miss you most. 
But I wait cause a second with you is forever in heaven.
And I'll kiss you when I see you soon.
Yeah, I'll see you soon. Yeah I'll see you soon.
I'll see you soon. A second with you is forever in heaven.
Yeah, I miss you but second with you is forever in heaven.

Lullaby
I'll sleep so soft, so smooth, and so calm.
Tonight with you in my arms so long.
It's something I've been dreaming of.
I don't think I can thank you enough.

And every night when I go to sleep.
I wake up and know you're next to me.
And if I die before I wake,
At least I'll die the happiest in the world.

And I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
You won't forget...

And every night when I go to sleep.
I wake up and know you're next to me.
And if I die before I wake,
At least I'll die the happiest in the world.

And I won't be forgetting you.
I won't be forgetting you.
No, I won't be forgetting you.
And you won't forget me, oh no.

We Live On
Smile me a garden of laughter and joy,
Cry me a rainbow with tin at it's end instead of gold.
Sing me a poem of full of love,
Or shout at me in slience that's louder than words.

Tell me of mystery or tell me of pain.
Paint me a picture that's made of your name.
My heart is yours now that you're gone.
Your songs buried with you but we live on.

Sneer at my hopes, laugh at my dreams.
Love with your soul since I'm afriad to dream.
Borrow my happiness or steal it from me,
Don't tell the truth because a lie is all that you need.

Tell me of mystery or tell me of pain.
Paint me a picture that's made of your name.
My heart is yours now that you're gone.
Your songs buried with you but we live on.

I Stepped On A Flower
I stepped on a flower as it withered and died.
I stepped on an ant it just whimpered and cried.
I stepped on a mountain flowing with colorful ice.
I stepped on a rainbow but the end was out of sight.
But don't ask me why, don't ask me why.
Don't ask me why it made me cry.

I stepped on a bird it's wings were clipped from birth.
I stepped on a bird that had fallen to earth.
But don't ask me why, don't ask me why.
Don't ask me why it made me cry.

And The Flower Bent Over And Kissed Us Goodnight - Have You Can You Will You I Love You
I met a girl she was so cold.
As cold her eyes were bright.
We talked into the night and I learned she was a delight.
It took all my pride.
And I know that I loved her.

I met a boy he was convincing
He planned to take my joy away.
But what can I say?
I'm a sucker for wishful thinking.
I didn't think he'd ever do it.
I didn't think he'd dare.

Dododo.

Show me what you've got.
(Though I know it isn't much.
Show me what you've got.
Why don't you show me what you've got babe.
Just show me what you've got.

Falling (Piano Version)
I've had the same dream every night of me and you on a plane.
And I keep waking up before we crash.
But right before I do you whisper we could've had something,
We could've had something more than this.

You said let go as the turbulence shook my hand out of yours.
And I realized you didn't love me anymore.
A quick glance out the window as clouds roll by
And the plane begins to slowly go down.

[Every now and then I get so lonely I can't think at all.
Every now and then I get so lonely I can't dream at all.]

And it's falling down.

But tonight I won't have that dream.

The Pok�mon Theme
I wanna be the very best like no one ever was.
To catch them is my real test.
To train them is my cause.
I will travel across the land searching far and wide.
Teach Pokemon to understand the power that's inside.

Pokemon, oh it's you and me.
I know it's my destiny.
Pokemon, oh you're my best friend in a world we must defend
Pokemon, oh ours hearts so true;
Our courage will pull us through.
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokemon, gotta catch 'em all.

Every challenge along the way with courage I will face.
I will battle everyday to claim my rightful place.
Come with me the time is right.
There's no better team.
Arm in arm we'll win the fight,
Thats always been our dream.

Pokemon, oh it's you and me.
I know it's my destiny.
Pokemon, oh you're my best friend in a world we must defend
Pokemon, oh ours hearts so true;
Our courage will pull us through.
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokemon, gotta catch 'em all.

Pokemon, gotta sexually abuse them all.
Every single one.
Cause I'm the Pokemon Master mother fucker.

Runaway
I've seen seasons change.
I've seen it rain for days.
I've read stories with the saddest endings.
I've watch the morning sunrise,
I've seen it waving goodnight
Through the corner of closed eyes.

I couldn't make her stay.
I waste away the day.
I couldn't face my fate
I had to run.

And I guess I'll never get a hold of this paradise paradox
That somewhere love exists in our fragile existance.
And I've placed my faith in burning, falling spheres.
But I'll never the courage to hold back my tears.

I couldn't make her stay.
I waste away the day.
I couldn't face my fate
I had to runaway.
I know I'm not like him
So I'll just give in.
I'll never face my fate
I'll always runaway further and further.
Further and further.

But is life any different from a dream?
Because in dreams you die, in dreams you fly.
And is life any different from a dream?
Because if dreams you die, in dreams you runaway.
Away (further and further)

I Don't Wanna Grow Up
I wanna live in a world where there are lots toys
Like monsters trucks, barbie dolls, and lots of G.I. joes
I wanna be 5 again so I can shit my pants
And no one would laugh at me because they'd understand
[I know you'd understand]

I don't wanna grow up.
(So I won't)

Then again I don't wanna live a world
Where all the girls have flat chests and monsters under my bed
And I can't go out on the town and get shit faced
When you don't answer your phone
Stop being a fucking hoe

But I don't wanna grow up.
(So I won't)
