" I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center "
I ran away But I'm not coming back this time And all the effort we used to fight Now we're both out of sight You won't speak to me And I understand why after everything we went through The time of day is the last thing I want from you I love someone else You can't stand to see it How does it feel to see your lover Be in the arms of another I stood by your side Even after I cried On the inside I died But now I'm alive Now that you've gone And I'm on my own Living life happily While you're all alone Call it karma Or call it fate Now is my happily ever after And you're just a little too late

Aftermath
I lost myself when I found you But I thought That's what I was suppose to do Then I realized I didn't lose who I was I was changed by who you made me become I thought that was suppose to happen You were suppose to bring out the good in me That's not at all what happened, though Instead you brought out the worse type of sorrow

You Were Sorrow
If you're going to continue to violently stab my soul, at least look at me.

Won't you evaluate the damage?
Forever is never real Emotionally I'm beginning to deal With the truth that love does end Perhaps the world shouldn't pretend In the past those who have loved you Have inevitably let you go Those bonds now broken Because forever isn't so In the present it is I Who holds you close at night Who's lips I kiss sweetly Who's heart I grip tight But if forever isn't so I'd like your future lover to know How lucky she is to be If upon her your heart's bestowed Please inform her to be grateful Please tell her I said so Because to hold a man like you Is the greatest feeling I've ever known But don't forget to warn her Forever my dear isn't true And in a short time she won't Be able to love you Because forever isn't forever And love never lasts I rue the day when I become A lover from your past

Forever isn't Forever
I feel like I am in a cage But you see The door to this cage It is open And yet I stay In this cage I am in a cage And outside of the cage There is life There is freedom There is love But yet I stay in the cage And you are that cage.

CAGED
Effort has left us And so have my emotions It seems like our love Has gone through the motions Unfortunately its time And we need to move on Leave our love behind Since everything is gone Either we've both given up Or we simply no longer care Whatever it is Each other we can no longer bare So this is au revoir It seems our time has come Once a blaze with love Now nothing but numb

Our Time Has Come
There's many and many, and not so far, Is willing to dry my tears away; There's many to tell me what you are, And never a lie to all they say. It's little the good to hide my head, It's never the use to bar my door; There's many as counts the tears I shed, There's mourning hearts for my heart is There's honester eyes than your blue eyes, There's better a mile than such as you. But when did I say that I was wise, And when did I hope that you were true?

Purposely Ungrammatical Love Song
I played along with your games While you dragged me down that beaten path Of monsters and lies Camouflaging my eye I was aware of your ways Of all of your strays Your smoke and your haze Thought you had me in a daze Come to play puppeteer Pinocheo's here But I knew all along Everything was wrong And yet here I stay Never to stray As we keep our love on life support Is it really love? Or just a last resort.

Love Or Last Resort...
It is as though I am standing In a crowded room Hollering "MERCY" From the peak of my lungs Hands trembling Melting onto the floor And not a sound to acknowledge me Not my screams Not my cries No eye contact can be caught I am deceasing Dramatically and loudly Surrounded by everyone Surrounded by no one
