21/M/New York A young musician trying to find my way
Today when I hear your voice It sounds so smooth, so perfect, so calm. You are content and filled with joy, You are at peace with yourself. It is today I realize that the last battle is lost as you head into the future. I eat the dust you leave behind, my tears form a rainstorm. Tonight I go home and cry. I cry for what you mean to me, I cry for how perfect you are, and I cry that it is not I who brings you joy.

Moving on
I left when it was hard I didn't think twice Oh what a man goes thru, The most natural thing to do. So I traveled 'round the world Racing motorbikes, taking solo flights, Reaching great heights. Oh what a man goes thru, I have yet to see anything new. I'll crash my plane I'll survive just barely, The best thing to do, In the end I'll be with you.

Together, Forever.
Never open your heart to the shallow, It will get stuck on the sand for everyone to see. Stupid ******* tanning, Your rusty heart disintegrating. Never open your heart for attention, Learn from me.

Todays Lesson
The streets are deserted; the cars are done beeping It is silent, apart from the willow tree's weeping And even old Mr. McRoger is sleeping. (Mr. McRoger, I'm sure you have guessed, Is a make-believe man who does not like to rest. Although, when he finally does get to bed, His sleep is so deep you'd have thought he was dead! ...You'd have thought so, if not for the sound of his snoring which some of his neighbors have trouble ignoring. But back to our story, before it gets boring) Not one suicidal remains on the bridge! Not one midnight snacker is left in the fridge! All are asleep on this side of the lake. And if all are asleep ... ... why are YOU still awake? It is dark, which surely you know means it's night And the thing to be done is to put out the light And if the thing to be done's not the thing that you do Then SOMETHING inside must be bothering you! You're much too mature and clever, I'm sure To be frightened of monsters and things that might **** you You're not old enough to be stressed about stuff Such as taxes, and how much the grocery might bill you SO ... If it's dark and it's night and your age isn't three And you don't pay for food cause you get it for free Then there's only one thing it can possibly be You, my friend, must be the sort of young lad Who can't fall asleep cause he's simply too sad. I know how you're feeling; I've seen it before You feel like you just can't go on anymore You've sunken so deep and you've fallen so low That you think, "Just how low can I possibly go? Of all the lows, this one's the lowliest spot. Can I go any lower? Why, no, I cannot." Well, I'm here to tell you, you can and you will! In just a few days you will sink lower still! And lower and lower and lower UNTIL... THIS low will seem like the top of a hill! UNLESS ... Things COULD get better. They COULD, but they WON'T. They could and they should and they would, but they DON'T. SO ... Since you must be exhausted from digging that deep, You may as well just go to sleep.

Little Brother
If my days could rhyme its all worth it, even if it's just I who gets to read it. After a whole day to write it all over, undoing my pain saying things much slower. One day I'll love and be loved back, one day I'll be there out of dreamland.

Lonely Today
Do you know we exist us special souls who sit on the sidelines answering for you defending the world We make peace so there's no war in your direction we believe in you when you can’t   we give ourselves away quiet our voice so that you’ll be heard Know I exist, a special soul nearby.

I don’t like you now It’s too hard When I first met you It wasn’t so. We’ll spend time together We’ll have each other’s back We’ll make a group to belong Now it’s time to go. So let’s dance and hug and be drunk ‘cause we can’t face reality If you want to love me Do it like you love your family. Or if you think we did well Then why are you acting so? Goodbyes Should be said like hellos.

Don't Rhyme Lyrics
I cry, I try, I cry. I don't know why. If you know tell me please, I don't wanna cry anymore. If you see me roaming the streets, How can you stay indoor? I cry, I try, I cry. I still don't know why. Do you want me to believe There's something in your hand when you keep it closed all time? Do you want me to believe That just by following you I'll turn out fine? I cry, I try, I cry. But now I know why. I'm here to figure it out by myself; I have to be ready. My life is mine and all about me, Is that what you're trying to tell me?
