After nights of sleepless fun
I have realized that I am done
And when I say fun, I really mean pain
And when I say pain, I really mean drain
Because that's what you did to me
You drained me completely
And last night I almost died
But you didn't care, you were fried
And when I say fried, I mean drunk
But **** girl, you were a slam dunk
You were my dream, my wish
You were the best caught fish
But time cures all things
I realized then what time brings
Time brings a cure
A serum so absolutely pure
That when I drank it
I realized, you weren't it.

A stop of time
A stop of heart
Such a horrid crime
It rips me apart
Something so small
Sometimes overlooked
But this time, not at all
This time it's hooked
I can't see past it
I can't see through
I once thought I had it
But now I see,
I've lost you.

I hate this place
I hate it so much
It makes me want to leave
I hate this place
I hate it so much
I want to sit and cry
I can't leave this place
This is my hell
This is my prison without bars
Sometimes I can grin and bear
And take the daily routine
But mainly I just want to die
And take this place down with me

You know the place of which I speak
It's in your heart too
We all go there sometimes
Maybe a lot, or just a few
I hate it when I'm here
This prison with no walls
This cell that has no boundaries
This cage for my mind
My soul is entrenched
By the constraints of my brain
So I take leave in a rush
And hope that you will too
This place is not long for us
But maybe it'll be good for you.

I'm sorry I ever came into your life,
I’m sorry that I caused you pain.
I’m sorry that I hurt you so much,
So much that I will never know.
I’m sorry I couldn't be there,
I’m sorry I wasn't close by.
When the things that hurt you most,
And the things that made you cry.
I’m sorry that you fell in love,
I’m sorry I thought I did too.
I’m sorry I got myself caught up in this,
And I’m sorry you did too.
You want me to runaway from you,
To a place that only I know.
I’m sorry I’m confused and torn,
I’m sorry that I wasn't reborn.
This mark that you've made on my life,
Is one I will never forget.
So I don't know if this is goodbye,
Or maybe just, “I’ll see you later."
But I know one thing is for sure,
I will never forget the time we've spent
And the moments that last forever.
I don't like the end of this one.... needs some revision... well all of these do

Red is the color I feel today,
It is because of last night too.
I was hoping you had come to stay,
And hoping that you would stay true.
So as my hopes came around,
My love and passion for you will bloom.
And if you stop and listen to that sound,
You will hear our hearts beat in tune.

And the pain that I feel
Is no where matched,
To the love that you give
The soft touch of your fingers
Running over my body
Is like rubbing silk on satin
The feel of your hair
Makes mine stand on end
And the touch of your lips
Makes my heart stop within
One more second is all I ask
If I could turn back time
I’d do it again
Every moment, every tick
Of the never ending clock
Cause every time that hand moved
I was falling in love with you.

I am a monster, that’s all
I toyed with my emotions
Knowing I could take the load.
But what about you, I never thought?
You can't take the load
And I found that out quick
Your tears are like daggers
Slicing through my veins.
It’s hard to think, hard to say
That I want you so bad
But I can not stay
So I leave you here
With not but a promise
That I will not forget you
And I will come back
My word is like stone
It carries immense weight
And is hardly ever broken
I want to say, "I love you"
Cause you know that it’s true
I want to say, "I love you"
But what is the use...
