(dedicated to my ride or die)
I'm never that far
No matter where you are
Believe it we can make it come true

We'll do it our way
No matter what they say
'cause no one's gonna do it for you

But I
I'll never say never
as long as we'll keep it together

If you're living a dream
and you know what it means
Then you can't let them change your mind

It's the life that we choose
and we still break the rules
but it's all gonna be just fine
yeah we're all gonna be just fine

You and me are gonna be just fine

Love a girl who writes
and live her many lives;
you have yet to find her,
beneath her words of guise.

Kiss her blue inked fingers,
forgive the pens that marked.
the stain of your lips upon her-
the one she can't discard.

Forget her tattered memories,
or the pages others took;
you are her ever after
the hero of her book

We live in a world with Billions of people
Sleep under the sky with trillions of stars
Some long to venture but are trapped behind invisible bars

This boy of grey lives each day in a town of blue
Though you just met each other you pray he thinks of you

But this boy of grey has a heart of gold like the rays streched from the sun
Of course it's just first instinct you assure him his journey has just begun

You're a girl of red; revived your own heart when others left it dead.
Unlike the boy of grey with Heart of gold you're actually very bitter and have an angry soul.

Boy of grey with heart of gold
We don't always have to do what we're told

A low-class man with a baby face took a smart pretty woman and made her a disgrace

He charmed her with his words; put her under his spell

Stole the sanity from her children and made their lives hell

Not a finger he laid on the broken kids but every word stung; the torture so brutal and children so young

A teenager already empty was beaten with the belt. She was confused but he didn't care when she cried or what she felt

The mother was his puppet. And he the puppeteer. The puppet was manipulated and her children lived in fear.

Her words were his and his word was law children try as they might his heart wouldn't thaw.

The puppeteer is poisonous and lives without a care.

He didn't work for anything... He just took what was there.

He lived with greed, the love for money and liked to scream and shout.

He took what he couldn't earn; seeking the easy way out

A loser who played mind games. Such an unhealthy mix. Flattering the vulnerable was one of his biggest tricks

The truth always surfaces. And that is what was done. When justice chased after him all he could do was run

TO MOM AND DAD

Blood no longer runs through my veins;
its been replaced with ink
Words are written down before i have a chance
to think

This madness lives inside my head
of people lost and childhood dead
Words unsaid
Tear flooded bed

I want to *live
again without the pain of men
Without the pain
but I can't complain
I've gone insane
This crooked smile I cant contain

I'm sick

Sick of her
Sick of you
I'm forgetting the people
That never came through

You've said goodbye too many times
Now it's time for you to leave
You've made it clear
I'm a mistake you just happened to conceive

SO GO
You got your stuff and now you are excused
it took a while but now I know I was
Misused and Abused

I always thought picking up a pen helped
me cope with the complexity of everyday life
and somehow found comfort in knowing that somewhere
a page read my every thought, experience, and sacrifice.

I try my best to tell you how I feel somehow
I am sure and this I believe in this is real
from my heart I sing to you when I'm open
that you'll understand what I'm trying to say
I found a place inside of me and I'm grateful for each day

A broken wing has not stopped me from flying, I leave no footprints
when you're around I know myself and you make me so proud of what I found
My book is open now the pen keeps on writing, story of my life it starts right here.
I'll try to reach the stars and grab them and hold them with no fear.

I am captivated completely spellbound, I have found my match.
and my black bird has flown away. that black bird has left I pray for good

The sky was white and the air was cold
he willingly gave me his hand to hold

we've known each other for years; man time flies
I still get queasy when I stare into his eyes

I matured fast; now an old soul
he's my better half and makes me feel whole

If I trip he's there to break my fall
when I'm in a jam he's the first person I call

I've let him go so many times
but in the crowds, it's me he finds

he knows when I 'm ****** or dying inside
in each other we're not scared to confide

whispers in my ears so softly blown
his soothing voice on the phone

kisses on my neck are sweet

I cherish our hugs goodbye or when we meet

its the little things that keep me stuck
you found me and it]s more than luck

other guys aren't worth my time
I'm so glad I can call you mine
