I want the number of hours I've been happy, to equal the number of hours I've been living. I want the number of hours I've spent crying, To be the thing I forget first when my memory fades.
I want the people that I've made happy, To be the people that keep me living. I want the people who've caused my crying, to be the thing I forget second when my memory fades.
If I find someone to love, I hope I make them happy. If I find someone to love, they'll be what keeps me living. If I find someone to love, I'll help them when they're crying. If I find someone to love, I want to forget them last when my memory fades
we are often told that when we grow old we will find happiness in everyday things but I have to ask, concerning this task, of what memories happiness brings I am young, have many words unsung, and don't quite know where my life leads
for that split second, it was eternity my body was filled with sudden urgency our eyes met and I was numb it felt like minutes but it was none we stared at each other for hours it felt as though time had no powers I sat back down in my seat I could feel every heartbeat I didn't know what was happening for that split second, it was the beginning
then he said those words in the hall and it felt like a poisoned wrecking ball I know deep down that what I wish is completely dumb and utterly foolish but I want to know what you think because right now I'm beginning to sink
we talk every now and again but talking to you feels like a sin it feels right and of good reason until my friends all compare it to treason somethimes I look at you through the corner of my eye, if anyone asked of course I would lie I know we have tried and things never work but in a perfect world I wouldn't have to lurk in a perfect world, I know we would last I wish we could go back and redo the past.
one, two, three, four, I declare that love's a war five, six, seven, eight I thought you were my one soul mate nine, ten, eleven, twelve I was taught to "save yourself" thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, more* I'm sorry* that I left you sore.
