Here I go again on this merry-go-round Never knowing when it's going to stop I feel like a spinning top I used to find it so fun and exciting But after falling off more than a few times it's not so inviting It left me feeling dizzy and sick even though it ended so quick

Merry go-round
My mind in one place and my heart in another How do I let this go when I still wonder About you, about us, and where it all went wrong Could it be fixed? Am I wrong to still think like this? I'm holding onto the good memories and blocking out the bad You have a piece of my heart that I'll never get back How can I hate you, but still love you? I can't construe these emotions I feel like I'm constantly battling myself in this commotion I keep thinking you'll have a breakthrough That we'll redo and start new If only you knew how much I loved you

Complicated Love
I love you I really do, but sometimes it's just too hard And I feel we won't make it through You've said and done things that have hurt me to the core You ignore my feelings because you've heard it all before It seems we fell into a routine Makeups and breakups We're always right in between This is getting so obscene Tired of fighting over who's right or wrong Different opinions that are too strong Why can't we just get along? I love you I really do, but sometimes it's just too hard And I feel we won't make it through

Should I leave or should I stay? This question is on my mind everyday The fear of losing everything just to restart really breaks my heart Why did we build this is we were just going to fall apart? I keep thinking you'll say let's try to get through this Pull me in with a kiss and say I'm not someone you'd ever want to miss But I get nothing, you're emotionless What hurts the most is knowing you're okay while I'm left feeling gray Two and a half years we threw away Should I leave or should I stay? I think it's time to walk away

Sleep eludes me yet again My worries and mistakes are keeping me awake All I do is ache anymore For god sakes, give me a break I feel like I have a ton of bricks on my shoulders They weigh me down and leave me feeling much older I wish things could come easily to me Then I could finally be free, Free from this misery that I carry daily These words are trite, but there the only ones I know I need to swallow my sorrows in order to grow It’s time to move on, time to let go

Elude
I can’t seem to move on no matter how hard I try I just don’t want this to be goodbye My heart feels bruised I’m left broken and confused I don’t know what to do Memories run through my head I can still remember everything you said You left me feeling misled I keep pouring my heart out to you Thinking we’ll start new But it doesn’t matter to you There’s nothing more I can do I can’t wait on you anymore All you do is ignore Leaving my heart so sore So therefore I’m closing the door

Goodbye to you
These bad memories come and go That happened long ago But the pain remains the same I can still feel the shame Dad comes home and we all flee from the scene Always following his same old routine The fighting and yelling is all we can hear Locked away and filled with fear We’re crying out for help to get out of here But it’s not too long before another bruise appears We suffered for years and cried so many tears So much hate has filled our ears We taught ourselves from right and wrong We learned from each others mistakes With no guidance from our parents the decisions were ours to make Dad got away and left us again But mom gave in and let him back in I don’t know if that’s something I can let go Even though it happened long ago

The past
I always stood up for you when people would decry You made me believe you were different than most guys How could I have been so stupid to believe in all your lies You must of always been in disguise because I realized I could never get past those beautiful brown eyes After an outburst of cries and giving you a number of tries You didn’t even have the decency to say goodbye You have really became something I despise

Brown eyes
As I lay my head on my pillow I look outside my bedroom window I see the slow falling snow Gently drifting to the ground below Covering the grass and trees That once used to be so evergreen Untouched and pristine Making all that is different the same What a beautiful scene it became

Winter
I know you think I’m being mean But trust me I know what it was like being a teen I’m just trying to watch out for you I don’t want people to take advantage of you I know you want to grow up and leave But that’s just you being naive I don’t want you to regret not getting to be a kid Cause that’s exactly what I did I know you’re trying to fit in But just try to be more comfortable in your own skin Life’s not all about how you look and what you wear Materialistic things will get you nowhere I’m writing you this to show you how much I care If you need me I’m always there, I swear
