There stands an important man,
Made immortal by the bronze and gold that laces his structure.
Firm, aged and full of intellect,
He stands pointing toward the western sun.
Tie worn tight as his suit lays motionless in the wind.
Crass, hopeful, he is not without scandal,
A man who lives with his past open for all interpretation.
Those who stroll past look up,
Thoughts lingering on his works.
Eternal, when all else crumbles to
Dust and scatters the raging sea,
He will stand steady, pointing, outlasting
All he should be remembered for.

Here's my story--it's sad, but true:
I've got nothing on my mind.
The sky isn't blue and the ocean's not grand.
I thought I'd be a hero.
If you've ever wondered why, Disney tales all end in lies.

I've been spending money like a king, but I'm not a king.
There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light.
I've got these habits that I cannot break.
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?

I think that, possibly, maybe, I'm falling for you.
I don't know, but I think maybe.
I'm going to be a mighty king.
When the night has come,
I'm not surprised--not everything lasts.

All the ghosts of the grandmothers have been haunting me in my living room.
Did you see the sky?
You say hello, and I say hello back.
You may tire of me.

In the light of the sun,
I never loved nobody fully.
Where have all the good men gone?
After all is said and done, I feel the same.
You know, this may turn into the longest day of my life.

Once upon a time, not so long ago,
Three little birds sat on my window.
"Hey, ain't life wonderful?"
When I see you, I really see you upside down.
Today, I'm going to write a sad song.

Follow me and everything is all right.
I just want to be okay, be okay, be okay.
I hold on so nervously.
I want to ask you, do you ever sit and wonder,
Why do birds suddenly appear every time you'e near?
I sense there's something in the wind that feels like tragedy's at hand.

Break off from the pack,
Away from those who’ll seek to hold you back.
Put it all on the line
A life lived without risks
is not a life of mine.

Sever the ties.
Forget your past.
All the times you tried
but you failed so hard.
Give it all you got,
that’s why you have a heart.

Don’t run with the wolves.
Just be your own man.
Just do better as best you can.
You’ll live, you’ll breathe, you’ll die, you’re ******.
Your sand is running out.
Your ******* time is up.

We’re wasting the only chance that we will ever get.
When death comes, he’ll find me living a life of no regrets.

Have you ever let your veins run dry,
Just so the other can drink?
Have you ever let some one in,
To the point that you can't breath?

The world can't get you now.
The world can't have you now.
You gave yourself,
To an unworldly creature.

With out her,
There is no real me.
Without her love I can't
Ever be truly happy.

I will give up all that I am,
To try and make her happy.
I will give my heart and soul,
To have an eternity.

We both are a little crazy,
But it's over each other.
We are both a little out of touch,
With the rest of the world.

I wouldn't take this another way,
Wouldn't ever give away,
What I found in her,
I will always be here to stay.

My love, my one,
My eternity.

So close that I can feel it.
I have believed you now more than ever.
You are more dedicated.
I know you're mine.

I want this.
I want to dedicate.
I want to come home and be safe.
I want this pretty woman,
To be my forever.
I have felt all the pain,
And you show me you know.
You beg me to hold on for
Another breath.

So I will.

Because what she said is right.
This other woman, she knows.
When she looked us in the eye and said
"You have what it takes, you have the support.
It will be a battle at first, but your love will hold.
You have the connection, you have the strength."
Finish your business, and come home to me.
