So what if I don't know you
On a face to face basis
So what if I don't know
What you look like on the outside.
It's what's on the inside that matters.
That beautiful soul.
That attention capturing honesty.
The truth in your words.
The need for warmth,
although not physical, but mental.
Emotional.
Maybe I like the need in you.
Maybe it's because I like to help people.
And that hobby drew me to you.
You're unknown,
but you still mean the world to me.
To a special friend. -Z

The way you talk,
The way you laugh,
The way you act,
The way you smile,
The way you love,
The way you care,
The way you feel,
The way you show,
The way you do everything you do,
The way you made me fall in love with you.

To appreciate what you have,
To give and to recieve,
To cherish,
To right their wrongs,
To make them happy,
To give them hope.
To love them unconditionally.
That's more than love.
That's true love .

You never noticed it before
The way she acts, talks, and feels about you.
You took it as a joke when she said she loved you, didn't you?
The way you said it back, you made it seem like you meant it.
But why?
Why did you lie to her?
Why did you hurt her?
Do you see what you've done?
She gave you her all and you gave her lies.
I never thought it'll go this far
That's exactly it!
YOU NEVER THOUGHT.
Now here she lies,
her body is still.
No one knows why she did this,
except you and I.
You and I
The words you uttered to her, but never meant.
When in reality, it was simply just her.
When she lost you, to one of the others,
It was just her.
Now,
Now it's just you

There once was a girl with nothing to lose
With a pocket full of smiles, and only good news.
Her life was going good, no, it was great.
Little did she know, her life, she would soon hate.
It poured on her like rain, and drenched her wet.
Why was this happening, she didn't get.
Her smile disappeared, her heart quickly sank.
Her once beautiful mind, slowly drew a blank.
Society, they called it, began to take a toll.
Her life, dreaded, spiraled down a hole.
She gave up, she quit, she had enough.
She was done, she was lost, she was in the rough.
But a glimmer of hope, burned inside her, bright.
Without her knowledge, it was making things right.
The depression, they called it, was dwindling down.
Emotions were returning to their rightful town.
Her eyes lit up, with a feeling she longed.
A feeling that helped her, write out this song.
*Even when the light turns dark, you'll be alright
The sun will shine, day will be bright*

The cracks in the sidewalk
remind me of myself
Broken,
harmed,
stepped on.

Even as the day turns dark,
I see the light
It shines so bright, it shines so bright.
Even when the candle burns out,
I see the flame
It burns the same, it burns the same.
Even when I'm not with you,
My heart still beats.
I can go on, I will go on.

Never let me go
Because I'll never know
If your love was ever true
If you loved me like I love you.
And it scares me,
You see.

This wasn't the best year of our lives,
but it wasn't the worst either.
Yeah, we lost some close friends,
but you lose people for a reason.
The reason is to simply make room for new friends,
this coming year.

Promise me you'll stay, I said.
Promise me it's forever.
Promise me that you and I,
Will never say never.
You said that word, That dreaded word
But meant it, not all all.
Cos promises, they have no meaning
Once you feel your own heart fall.
From that day on, I trusted no one
My heart was in a cage
But regardless, when I saw you near
You put out my heart's rage.
