Grow Faster
My life is not going to last that long / This body of mine will wither quite soon / My heart though it loves forever strong

I wish I could have saved you / From whoever took you away / Your life was a pawn unknowing

Where to Look
Sometimes I choose to be away / But fear not for my love for you continues to grow / I do not mean insult nor to provoke doubt

Walk of Fame
I stopped giving but I still give it all / I said goodbye with no intention of leaving at all / I just bid farewell to the person I was waiting for

Now and Then
It just stopped being / And in that moment it all cut out / No more did your light shine for me
