27/F Love and other feelings
What is it about love? That makes you talk crazy act crazy think crazy Makes everything else around you hazy What is it about love? That makes you think like a dream Makes your heart feel like it’s ripping at the seams What is it about love? Where not a minute goes by without you thinking of their face Always look for them in a crowded place What is it about love? What is it about love?

What is it about love?
I don’t know I don’t know what is meant to be And what is not meant to be When things are right, when things are wrong The good vs the bad I could never tell all along What I do know is when I look in your eyes I see the best friend I’ve ever had And the best lover It makes my heart beat but also tremble Because I’m so **** scared to lose you I don’t want to know what it feels like without your hand in mine God knows it’s not for nothing All this time Still I do not know what the future will bring I can only pray it’s you here with me

Wishful Thinking
Lying in the night Blood shot eyes and salty tears roll down my cheek I ponder why I was always so meek with you Why all I did was love you Just to be shot down like I was a target and you had the perfect aim You held the controller, I was the game I took the punches and the blame You stole my heart, ran, and I tried to chase Ended up seeing you slowly fade away at the end of the race You even took the last sip from the cup I guess it was my fault I couldn't keep up Too weak to fight Left alone with blood shot eyes in the middle of the night

Sting
Now it seems like you want to erase me Lock up our memories and throw away the key Act like you never loved me at all Pretend I didn't give you my hand each time you would fall But you know I was there when everything fell apart And you tore open my chest and took out my heart You never gave it back Maybe that's why you feel you have nothing to lack Because I gave you everything You still consume my thoughts every day and every evening And I wish I could erase you too

Erase
0100 and I’m thinking of you. I can’t get you out of my head. 0200 I’m thinking of you and all the things you said. 0300 I’m thinking of you, your voice echos in my mind. 0400 I’m thinking of you and the solution we can’t seem to find. 0500 I’m thinking of you as I start to drift to sleep. 0600 I’m dreaming of you and for a moment you’re mine to keep. 1200 I open my eyes and wonder if you miss me too. 1300 I start to think I’ll never stop thinking of you.

The Inevitable
I can’t sleep My mind is flooded with thoughts I think of you My stomach is tied in knots Is perfect even a realistic aim? A shot in the dark has been known to cause pain And if it does at least I would go down with a fight Lose it all for you Whether that’s wrong or right Can anyone else relate to how I feel? Nights like these make dreams seem real

In A Daze
What do you want from me? My heart is yours as it flutters in my chest at the thought of you The spaces in my mind are all occupied with the remembrance of the way you’ve held me The movement of my pace begins to slow when I think too much about it You have a control over me But somehow you want more Even the tears that come from my eyes seem to scream your name as they fall What more can I give you?

Bone Dry
As the day turns from a bright yellow to a purple and pink hue It is so beautiful it makes me think of you The cumulus clouds represent the imaginary thought bubbles over my head That replay all the words you’ve said A gust of chilled air brushes against my cheek Like the way your lips do ever so meek How slow the world does move Almost as if to say it approves “Let’s savor the moment of these two” I always picture yours out of all the faces Your love resides in beautiful places

You
I know you feel as if your feelings are engulfing you and you're drowning The universe so vast and you are just a tiny fragment But your soul is so bright It lights up a room even in the darkest of places Warm happiness even in the coldest of spaces If only there were more Like you

Rare
I love you with my heart and soul Made sure I was safe and kept my stomach full Taught me how to ride a bike and how to park a car When I need you you're never too far But see you only have 100 years to live And I want to see you make it that far But the way you're drinking is leaving deep scars You have to know the bottle has control over you Everyday you have to have more than just two You guzzle and you stumble And when I look in your eyes sometimes I don't see my dad but just some drunk guy I've seen how liquor slowly destroys So I have to say thank you because it's something I'll always avoid Don't be stubborn for once just listen to me I wish you could look through my eyes and see what I see Your health is in a downward spiral I would do anything to see more sober smiles But alcohol can take over your mind And eventually it will be all you're ever trying to find Do it for yourself, your family and me Get on your knees for God and plea I pray you realize before it's too late Honestly I'm not sure how much more you can take
