It's not who you are to the world,
it's who you are to me.

Do you ever think of me and smile?

The best things about memories
is creating them.

I'm a light sleeper but
a heavy dreamer.

Whenever I'm alone with you,
you make me feel like
I am home again.

I can live without you but
without you I'll be miserable
at best.

I don't need anybody in my life
who doesn't want to be there.

Don't let him make you believe
that you need to change yourself
to get someone to love you.

If you want to know where your
heart is, look to where your mind
goes when it wanders.

One who can always find a reason
to be grateful will always stand stronger
than one who can always find a reason
to complain.

The way you treat yourself sets the
standard for others on how you demand
to be treated. Don't settle for anything
other than respect.

There are two ways you can
get through the pain. You can let
it destroy you or you can use it as
fuel to drive you; To dream bigger,
work harder.

Head under water and you tell me
to breathe easy for a while. The
breathing gets harder, even I
know that.

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door I understand.

No words, my tears won't make any room
for more and it don't hurt like anything I've
ever felt before, this is no broken heart, no
familiar scars, this territory goes uncharted.

Listen up now honey you're gonna be sorry
can't get out from under a sky that is falling
and you say no fame no money I'm nobody,
the way I'm running the show got me down
on my knees, next stop, Vegas please.

Hit me with those green eyes
baby as the lights go down,
give me something that'll
haunt me when you're not around.

Goodbye, should be saying that to you by
now shouldn't I? Laying down the law that
I live by, well maybe next time. I've got a
thick tongue brimming with the words that
go unsung, I simmer then I burn for someone
the wrong one.

I am aiming to be somebody this somebody
trusts with her delicate soul, I don't claim
to know much except soon as you try to make
room for the parts that aren't you it gets
harder to bloom in a garden of love.

I am not the kind of girl who should be
rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
but you are not the kind of boy who
should be marrying the wrong girl.

I never thought I'd be the one to let you down
if anything I thought I saw myself going first.
I didn't know how to stick around, hard to see
anybody but me would be getting hurt. I keep
remembering the summer night and the conversation
breaking up the mood, I didn't want to tell you you
were right, like the season changing oh,
I felt it too.

The time that I've taken, I pray is not wasted.
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?

You paint me a blue sky then go back
and turn it to rain. And I lived in your
chess game but you changed the rules
everyday.

So many things I'd say if only I were able
but I just keep quiet and count the cars
that pass by. You've got opinions man,
we're all entitled to em, but I never asked.
So let me thank you for your time and try
not to waste anymore of mine, get out of
here fast. I hate to break it to you babe
But I'm not drowning, there's no one here to save.

All your stormy words have barely broken
and you sound like thunder though you've
barely spoken, oh it looks like rain tonight
and thank God cause a clear sky just
wouldn't feel right.

You with your switching sides and your
wildfire lies and your humiliation, you
have pointed out my flaws again,
as if I don't already see them. I walk
with my head down trying to block you
out cause I'll never impress you, I
just wanna feel okay again.

I want the one word that you refuse to say to
me, you're so good at giving me responsibility
and I wash my hands clean, I let you watch me
as I go, I'm sorry for you just so you know.

Leave unsaid unspoken, eyes wide shut
unopened, you and me will always be
between the lines.

This is looking like a contest of who could
act like they care less but I liked it better
when you were on my side. The battles
in your hands now but I would lay my
armour down if you said you'd rather
love than fight.

He's not a magic man or a perfect fit
but had a steady hand and I got used
to it. A glass cage heart inviting me in.
Now I'm just a basket case without him.

Here's a simplification of everything I'm
going through, you plus me is bad news.
But you're a lovely creation, I like to think
that I am too. My friends say I look better
without you.

Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
wish I'd never grown up
I could still be little.
Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple.

I wish I were pretty, I wish I were brave,
if I owned this city I'd make it behave. If
I were fearless then I'd speak my truth
and the world would hear this, that's what
I wish I'd do, yeah.

Here in these deep city lights
a girl could get lost tonight,
I'm finding every reason to be
gone, there's nothing here to
hold on to. Could I hold you?

Time turns flames to embers
you'll have new Septembers,
every one of us has messed up too.

Tell me off in a letter, completely ignore me.
Getting high off of saying why you don't
adore me, baby please. I'm well versed in
how I might be cursed, I don't need it articulated

I'd rather sleep my whole life away
than have you keep me from dreaming.

I'll go sit on the floor wearing
your clothes, all that I know
is I don't know how to be
something you miss.

What kind of heart
doesn't look back?

You hold me without touch, you
keep me without chains. I never
wanted anything so much than
to drown in your love and not
feel your rain.
