My Mind

anna maas Aug 2013

My Mind

There's nothing left of me anymore
I think I'm going insane
But I can't give you more
Because there's too much pain
I sacrifice my heart for you
Now I'm an empty vessel
I realise how much I need you
This is all too stressful
There is no smile on my face
As I watch you leave
You are something I can't replace
I can't help but grieve
A tear caresses my cheek
Before staining my dress
Never have I felt so weak
This can't be worth the mess
My heart is bleeding
As you fade into the shadows
While I watch you disappearing
I drown in all my sorrows

But I have to set you free
You don't belong with me
Leave me far behind
I need you to flee
Run far, far from me
Before I change my mind

Together

anna maas May 2013

Together

I have a sadness in my heart
That can only be replaced by tears
My soul’s still broken apart
Even after all these years
There’s always been something missing
Since the day you left me
I know I’ll always have your blessing
Even if you went without me
My eyes burn as I cry
I feel the pain of all my fears
My tears fall from the sky
To replace the sad lonely years
There’s something I just can’t replace
Something I saw in your face
That look in your eye so reassuring
My washed out soul that I’m still curing
I’ll wait for you until forever
For just one chance to be together
I stare blankly at the wall
Erase the people around me
Feel my heart start to fall
As I picture your face so happy
Everyone knows something’s wrong
My expression shows the pain
There’s a reason why I wrote this song
To find a trip down memory lane
I wish I could make it all better
I think of you to try and be strong
But when I do my eyes get wetter
Because you’ve been gone far too long
There’s something I just can’t replace
Something I saw in your face
That look in your eye so reassuring
My washed out soul that I’m still curing
I’ll wait for you until forever
For just one chance to be together
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I last saw you
Nearly a year since my world was painted blue
I won’t forget the fatal day when I said goodbye
Standing at the end of your bed, fear in my eyes
Praying that you’d stay strong and hold on to me
So that I could tell you just how much you mean to me
…
There’s something I just can’t replace
Something I saw in your face
That look in your eye so reassuring
My washed out soul that I’m still curing
I’ll wait for you until forever
For just one chance to be together

I dedicate this to my gran who died last summer. I still miss you Gran! <3

Out the Window

anna maas Mar 2013

Out the Window

Don’t want to see you cry
Don’t want this relationship to die
Don’t want to see you sad
Don’t want my heart to turn bad
Don’t want to see you leave
If you do, I won’t be able to breathe
Don’t want to see you frown
I don’t want this ride to fall down
Don’t want to see you hurt
Lying down there in the dirt
Don’t want our love to go bust
We have to give in and trust
If our love flies out the window
Tell me baby will you let go?
Or will you fight to stay together?
Can’t our love just be forever?
Why can’t I make you laugh anymore?
All I can do is start up a new war
Why can’t I make this work?
Am I just a total ****?
Is this really worth all the pain?
You ask me and I go insane
Are you really asking me that question?
Or is this just my obsession?
Can this never go right?
Or will we just fight and fight?
Has our love really just shattered?
Like as if this never mattered
If our love flies out the window
Tell me baby will you let go?
Or will you fight to stay together?
Can’t our love just be forever?

Staring At Clouds

anna maas Mar 2013

Staring At Clouds

I’m staring out the window
At the grey and cloudy sky
Looking out in solitude
A tear falling from my eye
If I close my eyes briefly
I can picture you here still
Even though I’m on my own
Sitting at my window-sill
I now have two paths to choose
Forever love you and miss you
Or I could decide to move on
Forget you and start anew
I’m sick and tired of missing you
I wanna move on and find someone new
I know he’s somewhere in the crowd
When I find him I’ll stop staring at clouds
I’m staring out the window
Watching the rain fall down
Looking out on my own
My face wearing a frown
If I imagine you here still
I feel I’m in bliss
I just can’t get over
That one final kiss
I can now only see two skies
One dark and cloudy, filled with lies
The other bright and sunny
A rainbow in disguise
I’m sick and tired of missing you
I wanna move on and find someone new
I know he’s somewhere in the crowd
When I find him I’ll stop staring at clouds

Fix My Broken Heart

anna maas Feb 2013

Fix My Broken Heart

[Verse 1]
We were friends, the perfect trio
If one hurt, the other two would know
We were inseparable from the day we met
Our lives were so fun, how could we forget?
Then one day, he asked me out
I still remember when you found out
You looked so sad, I’m so sorry
I didn’t mean to cause you pain or worry
[Chorus]
I was blinded by love and let you down
Until the day love skipped town
Now I see that you really care
I can tell from the way you stare
You were there for me from the start
So help fix my broken heart
[Verse 2]
If I close my eyes, the memories come flooding back
That’s when I realize, life for you was all in black
Mianhe for hurting you and leaving you in the dark
Mianhe for keeping you so long with an aching heart
If I could turn back time, I would stop it
I just wish you had the chance to admit
To show your feelings to me faster
We could have avoided this disaster
[Chorus]
I was blinded by love and let you down
Until the day love skipped town
Now I see that you really care
I can tell from the way you stare
You were there for me from the start
So help fix my broken heart
[Bridge]
If you would help me fix my heart, I would help you mend yours
We were both given pain but what feels worse is that I caused yours
If I had known your feelings from the start
We wouldn’t need to fix our hearts!
[Chorus]
I was blinded by love and let you down
Until the day love skipped town
Now I see that you really care
I can tell from the way you stare
You were there for me from the start
So help fix my broken heart
[Spoken]
I’m sorry. If you fix me, I promise to fix you. And we can be…forever.

again a song but watever. it rhyms

Do you promise?

anna maas Feb 2013

Do you promise?

[Spoken]
Life is hard, but if you’re there…
[Verse 1]
If I wish hard enough, will my dreams come true?
If I waste my life dreaming, will my wishes be real?
If I look at the stars every night, will my plea be heard?
If I kneel down and pray, will help be sent to guide me?
If I beg for a clear path, will someone light my way?
If I lose my way, will you take my hand and help me along the journey?
[Chorus]
Do you promise to stay by my side?
Do you promise to cherish my life?
Do you promise to always support me?
Do you promise to forever love me? Promise?
[Verse 2]
If I start to fall, will you catch me before I land?
If the oceans overflow and flood, will you save me from drowning?
If the clouds start to form, will you shelter me from the storm?
If the walls around me fall down, will you pull me from the rubble?
If life starts to fight back, will you help me win the war?
If society starts to cave in on me, will you help me out of the door?
[Chorus]
Do you promise to stay by my side?
Do you promise to cherish my life?
Do you promise to always support me?
Do you promise to forever love me? Promise?
[Bridge]
When the world seems so bleak, you are the shining star that brings back the light.
When life is dull in black and white, you are the rainbow that colours my sight.
[Chorus]
Do you promise to stay by my side?
Do you promise to cherish my life?
Do you promise to always support me?
Do you promise to forever love me? Promise?
[Spoken]
Do you promise? Forever?
