Why do you say you miss me?
There's no need to tell lies.
Why do you say you miss me?
When I won't give us another try.

Why do you say you miss me?
Now that you can't see me everyday.
Why do you say you miss me?
While you give other kisses away.

Why do you say you miss me?
Only talking to me over the phone.
Please don't say you miss me
when what you miss is not being alone.
From America's coast to coast
Along all it's cities streets
Is the country that I love
From sea to shining sea

From the beauty of the Blue Ridge
To it's vast Kentucky grass
I love the New York City sky scrapes
As much as the Rocky Mountains pass

There's no more beautiful of a sight
As the Atlantic's morning sunrise
Or standing by the Pacific
Watching as the sun says its goodbyes

I love the mystery of the Bayou
Down Louisiana way
As well as the shinning beauty of
All of Minnesota's lakes

All the way to the mountain tops of Washington
To the open sky of the Mid-West
From Chicago and its urban blues
To the jazz played in Memphis

Whether up and down the Eastern seaboard
Or along the coast out West
All that's seen in between
Nothing more and nothing less

Is more beautiful in all the world
God has truly blessed America
Home of the Brave, land of the Free
America, my country

You used to be my best friend.
You used to be the person I trusted.
Now.
We are back to just how we were.
Strangers.
You told my secrets.
You rip my life apart
You rain destruction on what I protect the most.
Is this what you wanted all these while
I sacrificed so much for you.
Endured all the pain
Stood by your side when everyone deserted you.
I'm shattered.  
I'm giving up.
Because I only exist when you need me.
Written by a mortal that endured so much.
I cant stand to live
I cant stand the pain

it would take a miracle
to get me back to the same

I need a new life
I need to start over

no not a knife
but an ice cube all over

nobody cares
no matter no where

get me outta this place
get me out of this lair
Its a new year
time for more tears

more disappointments
and always fears

My hopes  grow strong
as life goes along

my heart beats
but i feel that its wrong

i want to cry
but i open my eyes

realizing there is more
then whats just upon the shore
I don't understand
you call this a man

You have all these schemes
and all your tag teams

People talk
and you look in shock

Loves not a game
but i would be ashamed

of knowing you
as each days shrew
