Is it okay to wait for something that might never come?
Is it alright to hold me this way and feel me come undone?
Time I can give you, I have and always will.
Time will always out live us though, to wait but to wait until.
To want something so much it becomes an aching in my bones. I've loved and I've lost, and I've done this all alone.
This time it's different. Too easy, yet so real.
Is it right to know already, exactly how I feel?
I hope you feel the same some day, a day sooner than tomorrow.
If you know you can't, you won't, save me any sorrow.
I've thrown my limbs around you, and with that, given you my all. I'm used to giving just half away, but I'm ready to burst, I'm ready to fall.

My Favourite Yes

Unmoved in this moving city
Striking a smile and yet losing the ability
Everyone's at their best and I'm at my worst
Left searching for words that won't sound rehearsed
In a mind full of wonder I'm left unappreciated
Searching for the antidote and instead left sedated
Truth is I'm not sure what the search is for
I'm running and falling through each open door
And until that day I went with my heart
Said no to my head and watched my world fall apart
My heart was on fire and burned through the rain
The first time my world's stopped and let me begin again
He has changed my world in a way that words can't express
And the yes I said that day will be my favourite yes.

Arms of Hope.

Hold me tight, feel my heart beat with yours.
The rhythm can warm us and hold us in time,
It won't be long until you're feeling fine.

I'll use my heart strings and I'll tie you to me
You don't have to feel pain
You can feel happiness through me.

Hold on tight and don't let go
There's passion here, you need to know.
No matter what, you'll have my heart,
Although you've had it from the start.

I'll feel the splinters of your shattered soul -
Cut me and make me bleed, jigsaw them into a whole.

I can't fix you, I never could
but if there was an antidote you know I would.

It's in you that you'll find your rope
To safety, into arms of hope.

Let Me Out, Let Me Out

Mask over my face for protection
Jealousy and envy wears my complexion
Awakened with these angry thoughts and ideas
Performed for my own world for so many years

Holding heavy my head and tightly my truth
These days I've thought I've wasted my youth
Sick feeling in my stomach from words I have swallowed
Shouldn't have sold my soul I'm stuck with what's borrowed

With my every move a route is unknown
Leave this fake reality or go back home
Breathing air so fresh it brings tears to my eyes
'Be you, don't be me' the words filled the skies

A conversation so familiar sounds so rehearsed
With me and me only is with who I've conversed
Take me back to those days of wonder
Living behind a mask but for how much longer?

— The End —
