yellow is the color of my love's hair
blue is the color of the sky
we'll grow wings
and past the stars fly
dropping bombs
of peace and prosperity
all of us panickers
will for once see in clarity
we'll stay up for the sunset
and wake up for the sunrise
we'll act like its a
fabby bday suprise
we'll overtake the world
and change it to one that's good
there won't be any violence
life will drop it's shadowy hood
love will be our governor
and hope will be the president
I can't wait to be
that country's resident.

peaceful
quiet
things you can only get
when sitting on your roof.
relaxing alone with the breeze
in my hair
stars fighting above me
with the city lights below
trying to be the brightest
horns honking on A street
people greeting
and cursing eachother
at 11 pm
dogs bark and howl
but my head still is calm
my thoughts are able
to find meaning and logic
now that I'm away
from children hiding in my closet
or stomping on my stairs
or mom popping in my room
and asking broken record questions
like 'how are you?'
and 'did you finish your homework?'
I just want to stay up on my roof
watching the stars fight forever.

I'm sitting here waiting
for a sign
to show itself
a message from a god
maybe a tip from my walls
or even smoke signals from buddha
cuz I'm so lost
no one can help
me find my way out
I'm so lost
because you're not by my side
because you aren't here
to show me the way
like you always have
and I miss it
cuz it gave me something
to live for
to hope for
to strive for
and to die for
now I'm just drifting along
trying to stay numb
because if I didn't
I know the tears would begin
but every time I see you in the halls
a lump in my throat starts
my stomach clenches painfully
my heart beats like a hummingbird's
and my legs nearly run me away
'cause I still love you.

open up your unused eyes
let your irises pierce the skies
tell me just one thing about you
in return I'll give you a fake truth
you keep saying I'm as perfect as can be
but all I know is it's you, not me
you tell me I'm pretty, and that I'm so hot
but when I look in the mirror, I know I'm not
but it sounds so sweet coming from your lips
words that make me want to keep my grip
there's a world our there that's waiting to take you
break you, shake you, lists of terrible things to do
labels you give yourself, about all the wrongs
but all I see is a gorgeous being who belongs
when I look at you, I see a dying angel
when you look at you, you see a heartless tangle
discord of hatred is all you see
but that's all I see around me
I'll stay around so you don't fall faster
I'll stay around for this ****** up ever after

I walk down the halls
and I hear you call her name
at first I'm angry
but then I just feel ashamed
cuz all I want
if for you to be happy
even if controlling
my love is so sapping

can you blame me?
I'm just a girl in love
a girl whose heart
was given a painful shove
when they boy I
wanted forever more
pointed his boat
towards a different shore

and yeah, the tears burnt
as they fell in my lap
since I lost you when
I thought I had you in my grasp
you said we
could just be friends
which made me sad
since I didn't want an end

can you blame me?
I'm just a girl in love
a girl whose heart
was given a painful shove
when the boy I
wanted forever more
pointed his boat
towards a different shore

I want to puke
and I want to run
but running from you
is like running from the sun
I can't get away
not from you
I can't get away
cuz I don't want to
a part of me
still has a crazy hope
even if it's as likely
as becoming the pope

can you blame me?
I'm just a girl in love
a girl whose heart
was given a painful shove
when the boy I
wanted forever more
pointed his boat
towards a different shore

can you blame me?

you hold me close
hugging me so tightly
sun's showing down
it's shining so brightly
I feel like I'm
drowing in the happiness here
slowly dawning,
picture so clear.

you try so hard to hold me close,
and I don't have the drive
you're off running 500 miles an hour
and I'm not even running 5

but I can't say goodbye
cuz that would break your heart
I can't hurt people like you,
so sweet from the start
and I know the minute
I turn to go
you'll silently die
never gonna show
all the pain
boiling inside you
sadness crawling
trying to find a way out
a voice to shout
but you're too sweet
you wouldn't dare
and that's why
I'm here not there
cuz all it'll do
is cause you pain
and put you in
a metaphoric rain
never to shine
above you again
never smile
to a friend
never to laugh
about the funny things

so even though
I don't love you
I'll stay cuz I
don't wanna hurt you
stupid reason, I know
but really it's so close
so close to love
an angel's breath away
so close, but too far
I can't, no way
but remember, my darling,
an angel's breath
is still close enough
for me to stay with

just wanna say I love you
and probably always will
and there's no possible way
to take away the thrill
being near you
makes me fly so high above
it makes me feel that crazy thing,
that crazy thing called love
so don't pull back
I know you feel it too
the connection that
pulls me close to you
I'm here waiting for
you to take the chance
to come and get me
and have a little romance
