American I don't care how it happens, as long as I'm laughing.
Time and time again it seems The heart was made to cry and scream And though our weary eyes do gleam, We sleep alone again

Eighteen
I know I'll think about you when you're gone. When I'm gone... because it's not just you who's leaving. And when I do think about you, it won't be like this. You'll seem very far away... like I read about you somewhere in a book, or dreamt you up in the pit of my soul.

We'll Always Have Paris
Soak into my bones like ink on paper Stain me any way you wish I wanna breathe you in like water vapor And hold you in like smoke, like this

Oh, Oh.
We reach out to one another, Grasping at all the wrong hands What lonely creatures god has made In a lonely, godless world Oh wind, take me away from this place Bring me sweetly to death My one and only friend And sing to me softly, gently, So that I may sleep once again

Wind in the Willow Trees
I did not ask for you to love me, But instead for the illusion That with your body next to mine, We’d vanish in the depth of time Into the most beautiful of places. I did not ask for you to love me, But instead I asked for silence. And with my head upon your chest I closed my eyes to dream, That somehow you did love me In the most beautiful of ways.

Requiem for a Dream
This love is one I'll never lose, One I can't control This joy that I cannot refuse Leaks sadness in my soul

You.
I wish I could tell you that I love you And not worry that you won’t understand That I say it not simply because I want to, But so that in the event of my death, You might know that I've loved you my whole life, And that the amount of love I have for you Is ten million times more than I ever deserved to experience

Always Monday
Unravel me with your smile, The limbs of my soul stretched out to touch you, Your voice a soft caress on my cheek, Like honey and all that is hopeful in the world Laugh, my love, and send me whirling too, As you always have and always will Oh, what I would do, what I would give! To hear you laugh just one more time

Beautiful
Awoken by a whisper Fresh eyes peering up at me I am tired, so tired But even I cannot resist This sweet, little face Just inches from mine So happy to see me, It brings me to tears

A Child
He sits in the corner of my mind His face is plastered onto the blacks of my eyelids Like a drive-in movie A silent film, of course I replay our short time together, Which is more accurately described as my time with him I stop to wonder, Was I happy then, or do I only remember it that way? I don’t have to think my thoughts to feel that he is in them Each time I convince myself that I am completely alone I close my eyes and he is with me I close my eyes, and it’s as if he never left
