listen to me
speak these words
hear me breathe
the pain that is yours
yes, your pain is on me
tide rolls up on grey shores
but the tears are all I see
standing on wood floors
but prison is where I be

a week without you
is a week without life
a week spent as two
is the peak; the height
even minutes with you
make me feel so light

all those people who pull
don't you wish you could shove?
just let your tears go
on the wings of a dove

cry for my eyes
and cry for my soul
cry for the one that you're dying to hold
up against your bare chest
to protect from the cold
and don't let them go
not for the end of the world

and don't let their heart slow
and make sure that they know
you'll do anything for their love
and their love, they will show
cause as far as they know
its the right way to go

and my love do you know?
is all I can give you
when all you want to do
is cry tears and you
don't know what to say
not even "its ok"

and its just not the day
or the way
and all you own is pain
and your heart is slain
and the thoughts won't drain
and you can't even complain

I'll be there to love you all the same

and when I can't help but cry
please stay by my side
please don't try to hide
please hold me tight
and tell me its alright

let me know you're there for me
show me what its like to be
loved more than possible, please

a tear stained page
I'm aware of my young age
but Love is all over this page
and its not like I'm filled with rage

Love has taken center stage
my heart is all over this page
and I really love
                       -this tear stained page

You know I think there's nothing left
nothing left when you have everything
you gave everything
and the high notes are the only things that ring clear through this darkness
leaving the bass to be dusted
the melody of the end has no rhythm*
These are the thoughts we think as we stand on the edge
of buildings
of sanity
of hearts
Lots of people think our life is leading to a greater end
but I know that in the end it won't really matter
we can say what we want
do what we want
as long as we are conscious of the time we have
or the quality of that time.
Now I am not a pessimistic person
even though my thoughts are dark at times
I try to live my life the way I feel is right
but its hard...
its hard when... you haven't done anything
if I died right now who would forget?
you all would
not to say I wish to die now.
I still have time to fill this empty space in my mind.
This space... void of experience.

I can't help myself
you make it hard
to stay away

you make it hard
to stay away
and be alone

to stay away
and be alone
kills me

I love you.

Dying with a 'y'
do you like my name
some things you never got to see
where the future takes you
know what I'm talking about
that, it isn't all
the way down
in the dark place
your hands on my arm
yourself and please defend
your self-
less is what you are
they trying to hurt us
innocent kids
always run on
that topic when
will you get that?

Always here and always there
little else that can compare
as if to say it is a ghost
would be saying more than most

stress oh stress oh stress galore
I just can't take it anymore

it breaks me down
it makes me cry
i feel the pain behind my eyes
all in all its all a lie

bright yet dim
it stays within
trapped inside our minds

never sees the light of day
oh what more can I say?

stress oh stress oh stress galore
I just can't take it anymore
