A voice echos through the trees
It makes me feel weak in the knees
All the hate is clear in my mind
When I'm alone I can finally cry
"I hate you! You worthless! You just waste the air!"
I can't believe I thought you cared
As I curl up under the night sky
I hold the blade to my wrist and let out one more saddened sigh
First pressure, then pain, then ecstasy
I know this is the only way to finally be free
As the darkness closes in, I see their faces
The ones that had held me together through the ages
Their voices echo through my mind
"I, I want to to save you. Want to save your heart tonight"
I know you tried, but you can't always be right
Thank you for everything, but no one can save me tonight

Dreams are like the reality of your imagination
Your mind's one of a kind creation
They give you light when your in the dark
They sing to you the songs of a lark
Yet, what if oneday your dreams could become true
A fantasy you could actually live through
It could be of love, friendship, or your goal in life
Maybe you want to become a star over night
Well, there was a reason that dreams are sent
Never let anyone tell you different
You can be anything you want to be
Because no one can take away the dreams of a teen
Mine and my bestfriend's dream is to make our band H&M; known. We've been shot down, but we still search for our goal. SO, don't let anyone shoot you down. :)

I walk around on a dark night
I feel your presence with no fright
You intend to take
I intend to give
My blood is crazy for your love again

Your intense gave fell upon me
The moonlight framing me perfectly
My hair cascading down my back
Over a dress; blood red and midnight black
My golden eyes sparkle at the sight of you
Only your smile could ever break through

We run to each other
Your embrace is so tight
Your stride, so graceful
Your touch, so light
It feels that forever we did stand
Until the sun kissed the land

You held me close through the morning light
But as morning approached, I realized
Something happened that dark night
Death, my love, left me to die
Now the streets are filled with my howling cries

The tears are flowing from my eyes
I wonder if you hear my cries
Such a long time has gone by
Yet I recall the day perfectly in my mind
Your body was cold as you whispered good-bye
Yet, your deathly appearance made me hide
Finally, I got the courage to speak on that dark date
But, when I grabbed your hand, I was far too late
Your hands had grown cold
Your glow no longer gold
Your eyes, so vibrant in the life I never thought you'd lose
Had finally went dull, they had been dying since noon
I screamed to the heavens, head in my hands
My knees buckled, the inability to stand
Forever I will hate my darkened heart
All because its fear refused to let me say good bye at the start

When I sit in my room, lights off and our old hang out song on repeat
I think of the "what ifs"
What if I had held your hand instead of letting go
What if I would have said yes to your kiss instead of no
What if I had laid with you, just a bit longer
What if I would have told you, your love was stronger
What if he never came between us
What if it was me you were touching just to feel the rush
What if you were lying next to me, door closed, me in your arms
What if you were the one person to shield me from harm
What if I was listening to your heart, my ear to you chest
What if, for him, we didn't have to hide our old memories that were the best
What if it was just us with no one in the world to pull us apart
What if I had actually given you my heart
What if I would have never fallen for him over you
What if you had been the one I'd given in to
What if we kept our song on that night
What if you are my Mr. Right
But the song ends and I realize: all I'll ever have is the "what ifs" because of him
Then I think, what if 'Moments' never had to end again

All I did was treat you right
I made you the number one thing in my life
Even when we broke it off
I let you act like you were the boss
Yet on the last day that we have together
You act like you are so much better
Even when I joke
You treat me crap
You know what you deserve?
I nice and powerful slap

When I broke down and cried
You gave me your shoulder and wiped the tears from eyes
Then, not even 10 minutes late
You talk about me, right to my face?
Yet, you do not understand why I am glaring at you
And feeling things oh so cruel

So listen up and listen good
I am leaving you in the dust like I know I should
If you are going to try to break me like a toy
I'll just laugh with joy
I refuse to be controlled by any person, especially so rude
I hope you enjoy your summer because, Logan, I'm done with you

She stands so close
Yet distant inside
A smile on her face
Every night she cries
She acts so perfect to all her friends
But secretly hopes it will all soon end
A twinkling laugh for her dream guy
Though he ignores her smile all the time
Uses make-up to hide bruises, so bright
For she's beaten and harassed all through the night
Mother moves her town to town every year
People wonder why she's addicted to drugs and beer
She goes to parties were she can act free
But paid the price with a teen pregnancy
She would give any thing to leave this world
Yet she's stuck living the life of a broken girl
