Can't you see
It's the same thing
While you call my name
I will not falter
I will not shake
To see what it means
To really feel shame
I'll admit
You got the best of me
I can see clearly now
You were the threat
I held so close
The knife to the heart
Without thinking
I've done my part
In life and death
Run out of breath
And now I’m sinking
Hold me afloat
With your arrows and your ghost
Just to let me cry just
One last time
In your arms

Of Michael

There is a way
to exist
forever in each moment
as they pass
and as sand slips through,
You find we're falling too
and It taste so bittersweet
and it tastes just like you
Living is accepting
Perceptions are true
And though I never saw it
The world exists without you
The harder you push
The more you ache Tomorrow
Don't try to fight
the tide pulls towards the coast
I know youre out there
Maybe You can't see
Time is persistent
and age will defeat
How many times
Will you keep
pushing me down
Can't you see that
I fell and now I'm
Starting to drown
I wanna be heard
I wanna share in this hurt
Do you feel your own burn
Through my skin
You've gotten there
You've already won
hope I mean something
to you my love
This is our moment
We've already won
Your ways are over
Our time has begun
Don't give up on me
We are never through
Words can mean so much
That I have lost on you
Can't you tell I'm evil
And everything you says' a lie
We can't get along
Might as well say goodbye

Uncertain

On my grace
How you told me
And how I held it
So dearly
Now I'm not scared
To take a breath
As you were the one
Who pushed me up
The steps
Everything you
Bought and sold
Is all I want
To melt the snow
All of these fears
They'll come and they'll come go
When I hold your hand
I'll finally know
Uncertain songs of heart
They all brought us here
And I'll do my part
Help you feel what I feel
Uncertain songs of heart
They all brought us here
And I'll do my part
Help you feel what I fee
Two years
Three words
I share
Love hurts

Elegy

I know your hand belongs in mine
I just don't know if I trust myself
To make decisions on time
Put pride on a shelf
If a little piece of you can stay
I will fight to keep it that way
So on the day you call for me again
My shattered eyes will recognize a friend
And this time I think it's permanent
The things that you've done to yourself
This time I come to you in peace
This time I will try to set you free

Wisteria

When I think of all of the
Things you said I just can't
Tell who I am anymore
It's not the first summer
I can see all of us
Say nothing all of us
Love to speak
But I found my self in the way
You swerve and I was the
One who got caught in the rain
And I can hide All of this
pain I cry it's here for
Today and I know you
Won't stay
You have time you're not free
Suddenly its
more than you wished it would be
That I'm not so strong
anymore
That I'm not so strong
You say to me with your eyes
You long for a
Day that you fear that you'll fly
I long for a
Day that you fear that you'll fly
I long for a
Each day as I pass you by
I think of the words
That I wish I could write
So You could
see how much I see
You're all that I need
Now that you are my love
One year could never be close to enough
I see my life from so far above
feel myself in your touch
Any amount of the pain
I was so scared and I thought it would stay
But it brought this sunlight to your face
Won't you please ask me to stay
Anything for you to stay

The Ides Of March
02:14

If I could take it back
Then in the morning
I think we'd laugh
And talk about all
The silly things we said
And the first thing on my list
Of moments that I'll miss
Will be holding you
With the city all around
But when you call my name
for the thousandth time I thought by now
You would've figured it out
Yeah when you come around
Yeah The sun comes out
I thought by now we'd share
In this light
If I could take it back
Then in the morning
I think we'd laugh
And talk about all
The silly things we said
And the first thing on my list
Of moments that I'll miss
Will be holding you
With the city all around

Mourning Song
03:20
|

|
I feel my time is coming
I know I'd gladly die
Tearing down these boundaries
That divide us every night
I can feel a sorrow
That's been spreading all around
For when I wake tomorrow
I will lie you in the ground
Every night it's hard to sleep
But every night I dream
Of waking up right next to you
I get lost inside your sea
When you leave this town
there will be flowers all around
Can you feel this silence
my reflections spinning out
As you turn to leave
I'll try to fake a little smile
Don't feel that I belong here
Think I'll lie down for awhile
Please tell me how these things go
I don't know, Well I don't know
I see you in everything I do
And that's not, gonna change
I see a light, like the sun on your face
I know it will be ok
Just give me some time
to live Inside your memory before I die
