I don’t feel the need to sleep,
Why does this mood cut so deep?
I try my hardest to forget,
All of my empty feelings and lonely regrets,

I can’t get over my darkest obsession,
That makes my brain my weakest possession;

I'm looking out into darkness,
To see a reflection of me inside,
Is there an end to the madness?
Are my thoughts put to far aside?

I can see a mistake in every movement,
Putting my heart into the battle of emotions,
I'm losing to auto-pilots empowerment,
Despite my body aching for the hardest devotions.

The darkness falls behind us faster than our thoughts,
Just the same as our sweet vibrant youth,
I want to spend an eternity; swimming in your memories;
                  Admiring each one that's caught,

The light stays in front of us quicker than our breath,
Just like the future we seem to be heading towards,
I want our future to be as full as life as it is now;
                  Let's forget the rules and cheat death.

The darkness outside my window still quietly swims;
Into my room; laying upon my bed; creeping on my limbs,

How will the light effect me when it returns?
The mirror stares at me with such a look; it burns.

My eyes hug the look you have in yours,
I didn't realise my heart was open for tours,

You've changed so much,
Without even a touch,

I'd love to hear your stretches in the morning,
On the way to work together; still yawning,

You're voice so soft to hear,
How long until I can hold you near?

Im eating hummus,
Oo what goodness

If I live in a dream,
Would my thoughts;
             Still be this mean?

If I lived in a nightmare,
Would I still feel;
             The world having a stare?

If I lived in my fantasy,
Would I still see,
            Everyone ignoring me?

I know you can see beneath,
All of the lies,
That come from behind my teeth,
But i cant look anywhere but into your eyes,

Your smile will make me melt,
Beyond the point of redemption,
These are the strongest feelings; ever felt,
My heart races when ever we mention;

All of the songs that play in my head,
When youre near my touch,
But no where near a cuddle in my bed,
I dont know how all of this has become so much,

With the girl that everyone knows,
Makes me smile in a way no one else can,
This is the path I chose,
And I will tell you all about how far i ran;

To be a part of your life,
Whenever,
Wherever,
Forever.

Here it comes again,
Refusing to be gone,
While you go around with other men,
I'll be at home alone;

Thinking of what we had before you went,
Panick attacks and thoughts of the end,
JUst know all of my love will be sent,
You're what my heart couldnt comprehend,

Stop thinking and listening to unjust thoughts,
When I see your eyes my life comes to light,
You're sat so close and yet i want to be caught,
Just to see the way your eyes become so bright.

To end this you must have strength,
Time and patience must have no length;
As this will be a peculiar time,
Where love and hate start to rhyme,

Every voice will deceive sound,
With another bed day; inbound,
Forget the light hitting your eyes,
Smiles and laughter only things to try,

Take note of the past,
Wish this time by; so fast,
The shadows will soon attract,
The light of another persons contact.

I've never been called crazy before,
Who knew it would drop my mood to the floor?

I need a pick me up by these candles,
Or somewhere to go; wearing sandals,

I need my lonely owl back to give me a hug,
with your cream and beige curly rug,

Protect me from these thoughts I'm having,
And all of these positive thoughts I'm condemning.

To quote a cliche,
Today is a new day,
Reclaim your imagination,
Stolen by the new generation;
Walk along not listening to Jay-Z,
But the heart beat of your own city:
Start to reclaim, your life,

Embrace the cultures of others,
Forget the pain; we're all brothers,
Enjoy a coffee on your own in a new cafè,
Who knows what that will bring your way,
A new set of friends for new experiences,
Or a new partner; a real change of appearances,
Start to reclaim, your love,

Believe in what you are,
Daydream while gazing upon a star,
Tell a stranger that they are beautiful,
For no other reason than to be thoughtful,
Make someone smile because you can,
Because all those above certainly dont give a ****,
Start to reclaim, your personality,

Enjoy life because theres nothing left to do,
Smile at someone, why does it matter who?
We can forget stereotypes or expectations,
If we all become one as seperate nations;
Something we can all achieve by giving happiness,
By lifes smallest acts of real human kindness,
Help others; reclaim their lives, thoughts and love.

What do you take me for?
Some rock you can throw to the shore,
I ate up all of our guilt,
Into the love we built,
I have the same priceless conclusion,
Of our hearts being combined by fusion,
Into the supplement of your happiness,
I'm always going to be your mess,
Into the darkness we fall,
Into our love we crawl

The bravest of them all,
Hold your head up; stand tall,
You're the silent spitfire,
The entire world can admire,

Soaring within touching distance,
Always there; such consistence,
We owe you more than a life,
So brave you are; what about your wife?

The country will honour the memory;
Of you so bravely taking on the enemy,
We'll wear a poppy on our chest with pride;
For the freedom that you managed to provide.

What makes a teenager today any different?
A guitar and some cigarettes; it's all the same,
I grew up thinking we could all be magnificent;
I struggle to find someone that we can all blame,

We look towards our idols for some inspiration,
Just to see the same inadequacy we see in the mirror,
Line after line drawn; words with drugs, no imagination,
All of their issues and so much for them to consider,

I'd like to think of a day we get past our disgusting obsession,
Of picking celebrities no better than the next ******,
And voting in a man who was protested at his inauguration;

You're worth all of this pain,
You're worth more than my shame,
In the things I can mess up,
With one touch; and some bad luck,
Why do you continue to hold my hand so tight?
How do your eyes always shine so bright?
I'd like to look upon you for hours;
As you wouldn't know me without your powers.

Our dreams of old will catch up with us,

Our thoughts of old will come back and cause a fuss,

But our lives will be better again,

and we'll be lost by then.



The joy of our hearts will bleed out,

We'll stumble the streets at 3am and shout,

Where our lives will be better again,

and we'll be lost by then.



The electricity of our minds will dream,

and think of our house and it's colour theme,

To make our lives even better again,

And we'll be lost by then.



We'll curl up into our bed and remember,

The way you'd cuddle me as you began to shiver,

To remember how we used to make our lives better back then,

And then think of how we've made our lives ours yet again.

Why can't we go in that direction?
Is that just not an option?
I wish to hear you breathing,
when you're happy dreaming;

I'll still look at you wit such fondness,
despite the situation; what a mess,
How can I make you see my admiration,
For you and your families perfection
