What if you, could wish me away?
What if you, spoke those words today?
Would you miss me, when I'm gone?
It's come to this... release me.
& I'll be gone before the dawn.

But for tonight, I'll stay here with you.
Yes, for tonight, I'll lay here with you.
But when the sun hits the sky, through your window...
there'll be nothing you can do.

What if you could hear this song?
What if I felt like I belonged?
I might not be leaving oh so soon
began the night believing,
I loved you in the moonlight.

--------------------------------------------------

Hold me, Even though I know you're leaving
& show me all the reasons you would stay.
-------------------------------------------------------

Something always brings me back to you,
It never takes too long.
NO matter what I say or do.
I still feel you here
til the moment I'm gone.

You hold me without touch
you keep me without chains
I never wanted anything so much.
Then to stand in your love
& feel your rain.

Set me FREE
leave me be
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
HERE I am and I stand so tall
just the way that I'm supposed to be
but your on to me
& all over me

Oooh you love me cause I'm fragile
But I want to be strong
You hold me for a little while
& all my fragile strength is gone

Set me free
leave me be
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity
here I am and I stand so strong
just the way I'm supposed to be
but your on to me
and all over me

I live here on my knees and I'm trying to make you see
that you're everything I think I need
here on the ground.
You're neither FRIEND nor FOE
but one thing I still know is your
keeping me down

----------------------------------------

It's time to tell me the truth
to burden your mouth for what you say
no pieces of paper in the way
cause i can't continue
pretending to choose
these OPPOSITE sides on which we fall
the loving you later if at all

no right minds should wrong be this many times

--------------------------------------------------------------

you move on like a sinner's prayer
let go like a levy breaks
walk away as if you don't care
learn to shoulder your mistakes

built to fade like my favorite song
get reckless when there's no need
laugh as my stories ramble on
break your heart and it won't bleed

your honest to a fault
that's just who you are
but you are better as a memory
than as my man

you see me leaning
Im about to fall
you don't want to be that mistake
your just a dreamer and nothing more
i should know that before it gets to late.

----------------------------------------------------------

if roses are meant to be red
& violets to be blue
why isn't my heart
meant for you?
This music's irresistible
your voice makes my skin crawl
innocent and pure
you've heard it all before
lost
in this world
I get lost
in your eyes
& when the lights go down
and we're the only ones.

-------------------------------------

I was beautiful once
I light up every room I walked into
I could make you laugh
or make you cry.
I could move mountains
I lost that girl
somewhere along the way
I became an empty shell of who i used to be
I used to love.
LOVE with all of my might.
I loved you.
Now, I am not quite sure what that means.
I thought love was black & white.
but really it's just a terrible shade of gray.
-----------------------------------------------------

I don't know what I've done
or if I like what i've become
But something told me to run
& honey you know me it's all or none

There were sounds in my head
little voices listening
saying I should go
or this should end
oh and I found myself listening

I don't know who I am,
who I am without you
All I know is that I should
I don't know if I can stand
another hand upon you
all I know is that I SHOULD

But she can love you more than I could
she who dares to stand where I stood
--------------------------------------------

Just once I want to be good enough
I want to be wonderful
& great.
I want to be the first choice.
Not the last call.
Maybe that's not in my cards.
I guess I don't know what Love is .
or if there is such a thing.
maybe love is the fairytale
the urban legend hiding beneath the bed
the little story passed down through the generations
to put the little kiddies to sleep
there is no love in this mixed up world
no magic no kindness
no joy.
all that's left is a beat up shell
of how life used to be.
