Disappointments abound
That's just part of life
It promises joy
Then stabs in the knife

It takes pleasure in pain
And laughs as you cry
When you think it's 'Hello'
It could be 'Goodbye'

A perverse sense of humor
A sick, twisted mind
It rarely allows
You to keep what you find

So when you find joy
Make sure to hold tight
In thwarting Life's pains
Be sure to delight

Find joy where you can
And put up a fight
When Life tries to take it
Use all of your might

There's sorrow enough
Without giving in
Hold on to what's yours
And don't let Life win!

I miss the way I felt with you
Holding me so tight
I miss the care-free happy days
And the warm and cozy nights

I miss the sight
Of your form and face
I miss the feel
Of your loving embrace

I miss the way you looked at me
Like I was a dream come true
So what I’m trying to say
Is that what I miss is you

You took my heart for ransom
But the price was paid in tears
So give me back the prize
You've held onto all these years

You didn't earn it or deserve it
It's worth more than you'll ever see
You've abused it and misused it
Now give it back to me!

Am I as interchangeable
As a shirt or a hat?
Do I really not mean
Any more to you than that?

I know you don't love me
That I don't pretend
But silly me
I thought we were friends

The joke's on me
'Cause now I see
Anyone would do
We're all the same to you

Well I'm not just one in a bunch
And believe me, you'll know
'Cause you'll live to regret
The day you let me go

It’s too soon to be love
But it’s more than lust
I just met this guy
But I’ve got a huge crush

We can talk for hours
There’s so much we share
Interests and values;
We’re both people who care

Just thinking of him
Makes me smile
And we’ve known each other
Such a short while

He says that I’m beautiful
And I think he’s hot
I like spending time
With him a LOT

He’s sweet and cute
And funny too
I hope to see him again
Really soon

I know that he likes me
But I don’t know how much
Don’t know where it’s headed
Or if we’ll keep in touch

But I think I could fall for him
Fall hard and fast
So I hope that he likes me
‘Like that’ and it lasts

Push me away
Then pull me near
Make me laugh
Then shed a tear

Are you playing a game?
Is that what you do?
If so, you win
I give up; I’m through

Go brag to your friends
That you broke another heart
Find someone new
To play the victim’s part

Just go ahead leave me
If that’s what you do
But before you go
Please tell me the truth

Why me?
And not some other chick?
How do you decide?
Who do you pick?

Why does it amuse you
To cause others pain?
What does it give you?
What do you gain?

Just answer my questions
And be on your way
And despite my heartache
Have a nice day!

From happy to sad
In the blink of an eye
You make me smile
Then want to cry

Constantly shifting
Like ground made of sand
Never quite certain
Don’t know where I stand

Should I stay or just leave
And walk out the door
I think that you want me
But I can’t tell for sure

You’ve been hurt before
Yeah, well guess what? Me too!
But you’re not the guy he was
And I didn’t do those things to you

I want to get to know you
But you won’t let me in
I know trusting can’t be easy
After where you’ve been

But I promise not to hurt you
If you’ll give me a try
That I always will be honest
And not deceive you with a lie

So open up that door a crack
Just enough to let me in
And no matter what else happens
I’ll always be your friend
