Magic escapes fast
Save the moments that can last
To always look back

What's unknown is lost
Unless you're tending to seek
True reality

Look back to the days
to make it all go away,
and I wanna hear you say
it's all gonna be okay.

Beauty is the perception of the mind.
It's not always what you see on the outside
but, instead it's what you don't see as they pass by.
That's what makes them truly beautiful and rare.

Smile and keep nodding
For the mask behind the scene
Fits oh so perfect.

Walk through a wall
see what it's like to have it all.
The rich, the poor, nothing matter anymore.
You're free.

Living life in a dream
and nothings real.
Who cares when it's fake
It's not a big deal.

But like all dreams, they go by fast.
You won't remember a thing
until you return at last.

The Life you once lived is now gone.
Now brought back to where you belong.
Those who're there
all shocked in a stair.

A tear starts to fall..
you know nothing all,
like a dream waking up
thinking you're in another one.

Until..

You see your mother,
feel your brother,
hear your father,
and finally realized

The world you once lived beyond this wall,
was holding you back from your family all along.
So live your life in each and every way
because you'll never know when it's your last Day.

This was my story
Lost in the woods that burned down
but I'll take it back

Collect your stones
I'll keep my diamonds

The feelings that I get while I'm staring at your face
are like a supernova exploding in space.
Not with the pain or destruction it may cause
but, instead with the beauty of looking from a far.

Sometime we walk away
to keep the memories of them now,
in case they ever change later.

Be a great person,
don't change for others,
even if they changed themselves,
at least you still remained the same.

There is nothing that can stop you from getting
stronger,
                wiser,
                           braver,
                                       and  rich.
you just need to seek in yourself.
Finding out the reasons you exist.

Lost in a maze
don't know where I am
I look to the side
and see a friend.

They helped me through it
but then they're gone,
I had to find out where I belonged.

Brought to the streets
Thus began a fight
these two men who were in my sights.

It wasn't long before I knew,
that these men had better things to do.
Confused for sure, but now I can see,
we walk these streets to find our dreams.

So what if I'm not alone?
These men also need a home.
I break free from my own chains
to wake up and feel there pain.

A dream of feeling stuck and alone.
The emotions only continued to grow.
I had fear of self control,
to be cast out in the endless snow.

So happy to have woken up
But the real world doesn't feel quite enough
if only we could truly see,
that all people have a time of need.

Help me find the courage inside
to not run from the fears and lies,
The path ahead is so very long,
It hard to believe I was even this strong.

Creatures always come out at night
I'm holding my demons in so tight.

This can't be right,
where is my home?
something's wrong
I need to go..

The Fire beats within my heart
tho the silence can only go so far.

This isn't heaven
or where I belong,
this is a world
where we don't get along.

Finding courage
in a place like this,
the thought of it just makes me sick.

how can I do this on my own,
when it seems like everyone leaves me alone?

Well I guess that's why I have to be brave
so I can create these better days.
Such ones where people can smile.
You could even learn to let your guard down awhile.

By facing these fears
I must swallow my pride,
for how can I keep living
if I chose to hide?

No more running.
I'm done with it all,
I'm facing these problems
by taking them head on.

With eyes wide open
My jaw continues dropping
even behind the scenery
this girl has my heart throbbing

We deserve to be happy,
so stop thinking of the downs.
There's a reason for everything,
to turn your life around.

Speak out you mind
almost like you're flowing back in time,
to where this all began
but, would you change it in the end?

I now see the circumstances of ones life
created in this world surrounded by cruelty and hate.
It's what you do with this gift
that determines who you are,
by doing what is right from the very start.
This is how you will go so far,
not letting the world stop you
from who you truly are.

Courage is always hidden inside
Guarded by all the fears and lies
Forever feeling terrified
Until you finally realize

It's all an allusion
And you'll withstand
That nothing will happen
Just reach for my hand.

Together we can seek for the end
but, lets take it one step until then.

If you smile for me
that'll be all I need
to smile back
more than happily

For the sake of simplicity
I look not towards the sky.
We make our own decisions
in our everyday lives.

Regret is a lesson
you learn throughout time.
Forgiveness is earned,
not what you buy.

This is problematic
to so many guys
but, it's the men like I
who will take a rise.

To say they're sorry
for all the lies
and start to shrivel
when they see her cry.

These are reasons
to stay alive
and meet the ties
before we die.

This is were I sit
on a bench so far away.
Looking towards the horizon
waiting day by day.

It's really peaceful
for what I can say.
This has you look at things
in a completely new way.

To be alone with your thoughts,
isn't so bad.
It gives you time to think
about what you really have.

I could give examples
but, where's the fun in that?
how about instead you pop a squat
and give you're mind a little chat.

There's plenty of room
so don't worry about that
i'll see you soon
I'm coming right back.

This is were I sat
on a bench so far away.
Looking towards the horizon
waiting day by day.

love is tough
but worth the price
I haven't back down  from this fight

Trust is hard
it leads to fright
but there are things
we'd make right

if you know it
to be true
Then give to me
what I give to you.

A kiss to the check
and hope of blush too.
This isn't for them
It's all for **you

Catching the joy from a sound
Always seeming to come around
Laughing like it could be nothing
Literally finding out it was something

Maybe this could really be it
Everlasting just like our first kiss.

Laying in bed, texting you all night.
the funny thing was, we'd never fight.
I remember the day, and what you looked like
back when we'd both say, how we feel.

I have so little now
most pictures are gone.
But I still have a sign,
Welcome to Wilmington

You see I'm here
and I don't wanna go away
I'm literally trying to think of what to say.

You're my best friend and more
you were always here, when I hit the floor
But one day you're gone
and I had to get back up

It was so long
there were days of almost giving up
not that I wanted to
but for what it looked, I was scared.

You can make me happy
pretty much anywhere.
I can be alone,
and wait for you

It's been so long
I have nothing to lose.
Because it's you I love
the one I choose.

If you could see
I won't let you lose.

Things are different then they were before
I'm not always the same
I grew up for sure.

I'll respect you no matter what you chose.
I'll help you when you think you're gonna lose.

I just don't want to be used
and I'm not gonna force you to pick a dude.

I just hope the answers come clear
for I already know what I want my dear.

We can make our own fate
for this I know is true
because if we hadn't
I never would've met you.

So much to say
that's on my mind
but through it all
it's worth the time.

to see something at the very lest
Is something I would beg for on my knees.

I'm glad you're here
and you found a way
but really I have something to say

I miss you.

More than you know,
I would go to great lengths
to clime this wall.

I'm always here
so don't close the door
you're forever on my mind
and my soul to endure

What else is there to fear
When the answers become clear?

I'll watch the night
beneath the stars
waiting for her to come from afar

With the moon lite up
we can both share
this moment we have in a deep stare

Her eyes greener than the grass
with lips so soft,
her kisses last

and the silence really isn't bad
because of the memories we once had

Like how we laughed
or how we played
just me and her
listening to the waves

we'd call each other
by silly names
yet sadly these things don't always remain

But I'll always look up
and still think of her smile..
**That Paopu fruit really does last for awhile.

Brought to my knees
with my head held high
only praying to the stars
to one day see you fly.

I remember when, back in the days
Skies looking so blue

Within that time we shared this world
as only us two.

Now you try to take control, leaving me with little left to do.
Are you losing your soul or am I just crazy to you?

Ever since I was little, I'd looked towards what we'd become
But, now that we're older, it's really not all that fun.

So I may be crazy but, so are you..
and you'll always be my baby, who broke my heart in two.

So it's time to take control, before you gain it once more.
I'll bring this world back to what it was before.

A place that's safe, where the skies are blue
except you won't be around this time, to ruin the mood.

A day to drink
so here's a beer
lets get together
and be sincere

Tomorrow we'll be "dead"
but we had a great time
because we all got **** faced
and it wasn't a crime!

To be Irish here
is such wonderful thing,
you get to party all night
and everyone's willing to sing!!!

I'll wanna drink some more
after my headache go away
but there'll  always be a new year
for the next St. Patrick's day.

The will I have
is like a fire inside
It'll never go out
until the day I die

Remembering the days that go by
Oh man don't they fly
Sooner or later you'll be told
Eventually that you're getting old
Maybe most people don't realize
Anything really about being alive
Reality is that you're my mom
Young at heart and always strong

Destiny has cheated me
upon what I couldn't see
Looking back at who I love
only praying to the stars above

That the girl I idealize  
is now in the arms of another guy
wishing that I could have changed things
am I really that's all to blame?

How could I have cheated fate?
It was so clear I could suffocate
the fact that I am no longer
the man that you deserve.

Without you dear I have nothing left
so now I take my final breath
to say goodbye to the one I love
to watch you fly while I burn below.

A body floating in water
drifting out to sea
you came my way
unexpectedly

I could feel the ripples
climbing against my skin
I'm also not sure
where this all really began.

Not sure if I was drowning,
not so sure where I belonged
but when I hit my head
that's when you came along.

I could only look forward
and it was so hard to see
but, when I looked above
there was an angel smiling at me.

I tried to reach for her,
I tried to speak
But, my breath was taken
or so it seemed.

I could feel a pounding in my chest
not just once, but more
then she put her lips to mine,
I was confused for sure.

I coughed up water
then I looked in her eyes
I couldn't believe it
"you just saved my life!"

An angel was there that day
but not one with wings,
instead it was my angel
and now we share two rings.

We're older now
and things have changed
although those feelings
shall always remain

Smile for today
So they remember you tomorrow
