Who are you and why do you have this effect on me?
You walked in the room and I can hardly breath
Do you make me nervous on purpose, or is it just me?
Are you doing this on purpose?
I'm falling so quickly

I don't wanna rush it and call it too soon
But if you were the sun, then I'd be the moon
Your eyes illuminate the streets with the only light I can see
I'm just a deer in your headlights when you look at me

Take me anywhere you want to go
I'd follow you into the dark in places I don't know
Wherever you are is where I want to be
You're everything I want, and all that I can see

If you have a hint of doubt about the things that I have said
Just believe me when I say, you do laps inside my head
If you leave it up to me,
I'd tell you to stick around
You be the tree,
I'll be the roots in the ground
I'll help you grow and try to give you everything you need
Darling, it'd make me happy if you grew old with me

I do not want to be seen
I do not seek attention
All I ask
Is to be left alone in the dark
My surroundings resembling
My dreams
Those dreams I enjoy for solitude
Is where I know myself more.

I choose this life
It's a hard life
Yet there is a side to me
Who through these words
You will find
Has a side unknown
Unseen
I am a US Marine
Who fights and will die
For those I have never seen
For those I love
For those whome protest my existence
But I say to you
If a man held a gun to your mothers head
Would you not feel an urge
The instinct to fight
And save your loved ones.
This is why I fight because I love my fellow Marines
I love every American
Every one has a chance to fight for who they love.

Her smile
Was the light of my day
The thing that ended the night
And left me hopeful that all things
Would soon become
Just you and I.

I would be lying
If I said
I don't love you still
I don't miss you
Truth is
I need your blue eyes
Your sweet voice
And your soft lips.
