The addicting taste of nicotine, it lingers in your mouth, it says last night you've been no good, You've spent the whole night out. Your stomach has turned up- and down, Your wallet was left in town. You can't recall how you got here, It was the best night of the year! Telltale signs say you did fight, you can see it 'round your eye. You can only pray and wish, that you didn't break and cry. Pains and aches are everywhere, From top to toe, and in your hair, Last night you had no single care, it was the best night of the year! You met many people, made new friends, Just like it was before. Who knew that some chemicals, could open such a door. Today you choose to lay in bed, With an everlasting aching head, But you don't have a single regret it was the best night ever yet!

The hangover
You've lost your sobriety down the well. You've been walking funny, I can tell. Don't invite me I don't want to go, don't walk slow, you'll lose your glow. And one day you will find, that all of those who've been kind. They're going to take off, when you lose your mind You lost all of your ambitions down the well, with them all your money and friends fell. No more you know where to stay, but anyway, you feel okay. You just stay there and sit, You don't even know you've lost your wit. Because all you're chasing now, is another hit. You've lost who you are down the well, what used to be your name doesn't ring a bell. You don't realize that you have lost it all, no one gave you a call, you didn't feel the fall. Now you're trapped in hell, living in a shell, You've thrown away all you've known, down the well.

Down the well
You can't act as you please, eyes aren't at ease, when everyone knows who you are. Your image is your mold, you have to do what you're told, when everyone knows who you are. So if you are shy, give it a try, to go and rewrite your label. Make hate into love, praise rain from above, just hope that you will be able. Because it's written in ink, to ensure that you sink, when you try to swim away far. The chain has a range, that you cannot change, when everyone knows who you are. Go write a speech, new heights you can reach, when nobody knows who you are. Your label is blank, you've got no one to thank, when nobody knows are you are. So if you were shy, you can be the guy, for no one has written your label. An image of hate, is yours to create, if you wish, for right now you're able. For now you're unknown, and standing alone, and you can now travel very far. For you've got no chain, you've got a lifetime to gain, when nobody knows who you are.

When nobody knows who you are
You change the colors of my sky, my eternal canvas high. When you stand still the weather turns gray, I'd give the world to take back the day. But every time the sun is shining, in the summer wind, I will be finding, is that you're in motion and that is why, you change the colors of my sky.

You change the colors of my sky
She's in my presence, she's in my brain, she's what crowds my thoughts, and drives me insane. Sometimes i wish i held back, for I've fallen in craze, when she's gone my world's stallin', when she's there I just gaze. It cannot be healthy, it's what I dismay, it's the danger of loving, when no heart is to gain. for when I fall I fall hard, but that's not absurd, and when I do I stay long, try to make her my bird. Even when it's a dead end, even if there's none, even when my hope's down, I stick around, which is dumb. 'bout me she's not thinking, In her mind I'm not there, I'm somewhere in her storage, to be brought out as a spare. Every nice guy recieves a duty, for every girl he hangs around; Every nice guy pursues the beauty, who someone has already found. It's really a sad matter; It's not what is meant to be, Seems like I'm stuck trying, But one day I'll be free.

Friends and nothing more
Your eyes have lost the spark That once lit up my mind What roared for some time ago is now a quiet of a kind It is such a pity That whatever's gone wrong your engine's lost its' fuel your throat's lost its' song Your lips have lost the smirk That once drew me much near I do want to reignite it For with it I can't compare But if I had my wish Would you stop being locked Open your doors For hours I've knocked You and I are a candle That's about to fade out Can't we hold on until the morning Then we can see with no doubt But give me some fuel And hold off the breeze When you and I come crashing my world it will freeze Your branches are reclining And your wall I can't climb It is steadily rising You won't give me time But if this is your wish It's time for my going To find another lightsource With a shine that's more glowing

Dying Candle
Give me one last chance To give this world a glance To memorize this eve Tell me, my friend Should this really end? Why should I believe? That the trees are green that I have been 'til this hour oblivious That I have not seen August has come Fall's already begun Already on leaves I am walking They rain will soon fall Don't know how long the skies will stall And to myself I am talking Because I won't explain I will look insane To people passing my way They won't think I'm okay I'm feeling sick No more flowers to pick They might have already been pluck I can't win the gaze Or people amaze For with no flowers I am stuck The path I stride Or with a bike I ride Is lacking my treasure Should I walk the other side?

A walk in August
Words can be used to elevate Words can be used to sink Words can be used to stir up hate When spoken or in ink When stapled up correctly Words can make a friend Words can make an enemy But that we won't pretend When you wish, words can conquer But they also can make peace Words will alter the stories You'll tell your nephef and your niece Words can be used to flatter Words can make a smile Words can draw your future Could keep your life in style If you want to be bigger It's easiest to use words But one day you'll be deflated You'll never fly with the birds But if you speak correctly You will be bigger now But you have to meet your stories The day when people ask you how But it's all about the person who's capable to speak To use it to make miracles Or to make people weak

Words
The summer begins at seven As the last song is sung Last time we'll be together before the future has begun We laughed we cried we screamed we yelled as a class we fought, as a class we fell The teachers they are smiling and the pupils they are, too We will not miss each other For we're not meant to do They yelled, they screamed, just as we spoke We laughed at them, just like a joke But I am feeling empty For no more I will glance At that special someone I will no more have the chance I'll feel empty daily, for I know that I will miss I'll miss the chance to see her, it was such a bliss For some the future is an ocean And it's now we drift alone Guiding our on flagships To split, yes we are prone But will it ever happen, that we reunite again Who would say they'd missed me, for I will not miss them

Last day of school
I want to paint the world with my feelings for you, I'll make the wind whisper your name. I'll tear down the world if it keeps you in gloom, For no-one else I'd do the same I'd cater you the universe, just to wipe your frown. For when you smile you are so beautiful, that with you I'm never down. When I look to the horizon in the evening, I wonder if you're looking too. For then you know what I see, Every moment that I think of you.
