I want so bad
to believe in you this time
but everytime before you've proved me wrong.
I try to walk away
but you keep pulling me back
I cant be sure how you've kept me hanging on this long
your eyes, bring a smile to my face.
but all your lies bring tears to my eyes
I cant keep on like this,
running in one place
this is your last chance
its gotta be all or nothing
so is it forever? or is it goodbye?
sometimes in life
you've got to take chances
throw your caution to the wind and reach for the prize
so I'm pouring my heart out
and I'm not looking back
and even if you turn away, at least I can say that I tried.
your eyes, b
don't know how you say
that this thing we have
doesn't mean a thing
I didn't know you could
fake something
like chemistry
you said you loved me like a star
but now you say that star has fallen from the sky
that you wanna say goodbye
that it was all a lie
and now you're gone
and I cant breathe
you're gone
and I cant see
and now you're gone
and I'm all alone
how can you take back
all the nights we spent
and the things you said
isn't there anything
that I can say
that you'll come back to bed
you said you loved me like a star
but now you say that star has fallen from the sky
that you wanna say goodbye
that it was all a
Maybe I'm not over you as much as I pretend to be
And maybe late at night I wish you were still here with me
And maybe every boy I kiss, I still compare to you
Couldn't we just rewind?
Start again
As good as new.
I would've gave you everything
I'd be your hope
Your saving grace
Your love
Be all you need.
When the sun goes down
I'd be the light that guides your way
If you had just stayed.
I bet you thought this would hurt me, but it didnt
I bet you thought it's be hard, well its not
I bet you thought I would cry, but I didn't
If you think I'm breaking down, you're wrong
You're so vain in all your insecurity
Your lack of self esteem says I cant give you what you need
So tell yourself whatever you need
To go to sleep at night
Cuz with you or without you
I'm gonna be alright.
I heard you thought I was fallin' - well I wasn't
I hope the truth doesn't sting too much
I guess you thought this was more, but it wasn't
You thought I was weaker
Well guess what
You were wrong
You're so vain in all your insecurity
Your la
Sometimes it seems, I'm wasting my time
Some days I'm so blinded, by love I cant see.
Some days infatuation, some days I'm in love.
But you're everything I can't live without.
You're everything I don't need
I, don't know what to do with you
Everything is two steps forward, and ten steps back.
I don't know how to throw my caution to the wind.
Or if it's caution I lack.

9 am
another Sunday morning.
i look at you, and you look at me
i can't believe i ever got this lucky.
i love your taste, i love your touch
my incessant need for you grows stronger everyday
i don't think i could walk away from you.
and we both know this is no good for us
but i don't know what we're supposed to do...
cant bring myself to say its through
The last time, was your last chance for redemption.
Now it's my turn to reciprocate.
Hope you hate how it feels.
You could have had me, I could have been yours.
It didnt have to be this way.
But you went and ruined it, you went and blew this.
There's nothing more to say
So watch me while I walk away.
you're a picture of imperfection
so beautiful and tragic
all the while just sitting there, strumming your guitar
as I stare at you across the table
chain smoking lucky strikes
and you hardly ever speak to me, but when you do
you speak so eloquently, like a book reads
you speak right to every piece of my soul
and you're not even trying
I hate your powder lies and cocaine promises.
You, with your tragic eyes and tarnished smile.
They'll haunt me for years to come, just like the demons haunting you.

Fated meeting, in the middle of nowhere
You go your way
And I go my way
But we are both there
At the same time
And we look how we look
At each other
And we stop
And we think
Of each other
Fated meeting, in the middle of somewhere
You look my way
And I look your way
And we are both there
So very aware of that look
And we hesitate, and we linger
An hour, or two
And we look
And we think
But dont dare it
Fated meeting, in the middle of something?
You go your way
And I go my way
And it will never be anything
This time
And we leave yes, we leave
This way you and that way I
Broken promises and whispered lies,
her heart lies in pieces across the floor.
Words cannot explain the hurt she feels,
the agony since he walked out that door.
The room seems to be spinning,
and she can't see through the tears.
Was it too much to ask for love,
and for him to shield her frightening fears?
He was her absolute everything,
more important then the air she breathes.
She thinks, "Why does this happen to me,
why do they pretend to love me then leave?"
Somewhere between,
the darkness and the light,
somewhere between,
forgiveness and sin
Somewhere between it all,
you got to find it,
Seek ye the kingdom of God.
i try to escape before my shadow is fully cast
flying away,not bothering to notice my wings have fallen off
a sweet scent from far, far away drifts across the street corner
and i hear a familiar voice crying out
how much farther can we make it
why only the night winds fleeting hopes to carry us
the world trembles like it wants to stop us
taking everything away
am not dreaming anymore
and we haven't done anything yet, but we'll keep on going
The moment was awkward and all was still
One moment we were laughing and then silence prevailed.
Our eyes met but I grew afraid
Quickly I blushed and looked the other way.
But he just smiled at me and took my hand
Sometimes I just hate it when he always understands.
And even more when he tucks my hair behind my ear.
He looks at me like that and logic just disappears
I get weak in the knees, my hands start to shake
Has anyone ever compared love to an earthquake?
If not, I would have to say thats how it makes me feel
I have to sit down or I cannot deal
And he just laughs at me as he sets me down
Safely, I si
i want to read your body
like neruda poem
written in braille,
my fingers searching
the pages of your skin,
gently brushing away
the hair that falls
like a silken bookmark
across your face.
i will work my way
down the page, hands
trembling with excitement,
anticipating which words
will follow.
fingers will linger
in some areas, reread,
so that on lonely nights
like this one I will
be able to recite
the subtle nuances of
your neck or the mystery
surrounding your navel.
I would try to interpret
the verse for others,
but there is no translation
for your lungs breathing
into the palm of my hand,
or your h
