Today I finally see,
That love can never end,
Although our dim lives can.
But it’s not what we take with us,
Its what we leave behind.
I’ve never been this scared,
That this life is all I have,
And if it’s gone before I know,
Then how will I be sure.
That what we had was there,
That was we had was pure.

But how will I know,
If when I’m gone forever,
people will remember,
What I wore today,
but what I said,
That touched their hearts.

Love can never end,
He whispered sweetly to me,
This secret melody.
“So just hold my hand I’ll let you know I care,
I promise.
That if we fall apart,
I will remember you,
Your right here in my heart.
I may not remember,
The color of your eyes,
Your face may fade in my mind.
But my heart will warm,
when I think about this moment.”

But how will I know,
If when I’m gone forever,
people will remember,
What I wore today,
But what I said,
that touched their hearts.
Nothing but lonely words on my paper.
Dying to be read,
Resisting the urge to take flight.
Waiting for your eager eyes,
To unlock the secrets,
Beneath all these nothing words.
But you sit ignorant,
Of everything I’ve ever said,
Of everything that I’ve ever had to say.
Sitting letting the words flow within your mind,
Never caring,
Never wondering,
Of their hidden meaning.
So They sit unlocked and lonely,
Just like their creator.

I could blow your mind with my words,
If you could only listen.
But my words can’t change the world,
If they can’t even change your mind.
So then,
Their just these lonely words on my paper,
Dying to be read.
The sun shone on my face keeping me warm.

I fall asleep wrapped in blankets,
Wishing I was in your arms.
But I can't seem to find you,
My eyes have been glued shut.
Singing sweetly to me,
Telling me your home.
But hearing it makes me burn and fly,
Makes me want to die.

So whisper my name softly,
I'll be whispering yours too.
Someday soon I'll have you,
Someday soon you'll see.

The word it terrorfies me,
I part my lips to say.
Just one more time I promise,
This time I'll make you stay.
So please, please don't give up on me,
This time,
Was the last time.

So whisper my name softly,
I'll be whispering yours too.
Someday soon I'll have you,
Maybe then you'll see.
Just how much I love you,
I know it's a horribble cliche.
But this time i know i mean it,
Now can you just say.

Because this time,
Will not be the last time.
Please hold me in your arms tonight,
lie, even if you can.
This time I'll be sorry,
This time I can leave.
Cause I don't want to lose you,
I don't want to stay.

So whisper my name softly,
I'll be whispering yours too.
Someday soon I'll have you,
Maybe then youll see.
I’m listening to a long ago made mix CD.
These songs all have meaning,
all have memories.
And I’m wrapping myself in them,
although I shouldn’t be.
I don’t mind,
because the words speak to me,
unlike they speak to you.
They sing right to my soul,
and tell me that I’m home.
So ill wrap myself up in them,
they help to keep me warm.
And maybe when I wake again,
the cold will leave me whole.
So sing, sing these words for me,
when I no longer speak.
On your last breath say these things once more,
these words will keep you warm.
There's a Cracken in my bathtub,
A police box down the street,
I even saw a little fawn, whose eyes I chanced to meet.

A man once tried to drink my blood,
Before taking to the skies,
Another simply did transform, right before my eyes.

A great scaly beast spread its wings,
as I opened up my door,
Breathing fire as it went, it burned me to the floor.

A dark old broom raced 'cross the sky,
Just as the sun began to rise,
A hairy man ran past my tent, surely in disguise.

One dark morn I saw a curving neck,
Rising from the loch,
Circles written here and there, ruining the crop.

If you don't believe this story,
That I have now told,
Maybe someday soon, these things you will behold.
Situations like weights piling on top of me,
Without a break I am overcome.
Reach out to you for comfort,
Everything I gave you when you needed.
All I get from you is a cold shoulder,
Pushing me away for feelings I try to control.
I never judged you or tried pushing you away,
When things were too hard for you to bear.
I dropped thoughts for you,
When you just wanted to forget rather than have them be known.
Looked after you and picked you up when you fell,
Why is it so hard for you to do the same?
The marks across my arms,
They hold a greater meaning inside my past.
Its like one step forward,
but two steps back,
in everything I do.
Realizing I’m just speaking to the youth,
and the airwaves.

I think that love,
is just a cliché story.
Marking the ties that bond,
the knives that sever.
Happily ever after,
Never seemed farther away.

I just don’t like the steps I took to get here,
Finding this it has its deeper price.
The weights have shifted against me,
I always thought that settling never held a cost,
Until now.
Realizing I’m now trapped somewhere deep beneath the floor,
And the ceiling.

I think that love,
is just a cliché story.
Marking the ties that bond,
the knives that sever.
Happily ever after,
Never seemed farther away.

And I just can’t find the pathway back,
To the place that I had started.

And I honestly think that love,
is just another cliché story.

Gravity has kept me down,
within the space between the sky and the ground.

Marking the words that bond,
the lies that sever.

Until there seems no more room,
for this to grow.

Happily ever after,
Never seemed closer today.
