you can't make me fall apart
or rescue me from my fault
only sometimes a functioning adult

you can't take away my light
hard as you think you might
this is not your fight

you can't break this heart of steel
if that's what you're hear to do
you'll never make me fall apart

underneath it all I'm clean
all of these things pristine
this hard working empty machine

maybe this time it's your turn
resolution from this scream
then back to the beginning

you're reaching for the sky
pack everything you need
we're going somewhere big

this little number
is for your sake
cause if you know
just how I feel
I won't have to fake
make no mistake
this is the quake
inside us both
if you hold me near
you can feel it too
you take away my blue
make me feel alive
anyways,
I think I love you

do you think you have it?
cause I want to hide from you
living in defense
don't try to steal from me

the panic in your voice says
you think you lost it
never mind that
It was never yours to begin with

come into my space
show me what you've done
maybe it's too far gone
I think I feel undone

with the breeze, it crosses by
touched my skin
and touched my thigh
pierced my soul
you caught my eye

sharper grip against the grain
don't live in this vein
never mind the fear
you'll find it all in here

i want your garden
sprout from the earth
breathe you in
consume all of you

i want to feel
green in my feet
in between my toes
it can't be beat

the sweetest smell
it's like the fuel
i know it all
a little too well

the warm embrace
what is this place?
it seems you've left
without a trace

who are you now
you've left me again
i feel the fear inside
purer than the water
that brought us here
it's beginning to get to me

he's alive like the sun
shines like a golden light
nothing can stop me
from loving him tonight

there were times I thought maybe
sometimes life can get in the way
if only just one more night here
then have my heart today

something in the flicker of his eye
highlights in the space all around
vibrating with the earth at our feet
this feeling, it just can't be beat

maybe this is all a silly dream
or steam inside this brain of mine
can't help but think of you tonight
I only hope you think of me too

maybe I could
help you now
change your life
bring you peace

maybe I should
hold you tight
give you light
make you right

maybe you want
just a taste
I hope you see
that's such a waste

open your eyes
wake up today
then you'll see
what you can be

it's your heart
you will understand
it's beautiful here
everything is clear

forget the pain
make it disappear
just decide to
turn on the lights

from the sky above
to the dirt below
under blistered feet
the green inside your toes
this feeling can't be beat

high in all the trees
i can feel the breeze
through every strand of hair
cold air and it's embrace
man, i love this place

kindle fires with your eyes
just to feel surprise
greatness burns within
just a little sin
starting over again

nevermind the past
living all too fast
i hope this feeling lasts
remember every night
turn on every light
make the feeling right

looking out your window
sun kissed hair in my eyes
watching while the wind blows
through the cloudless skies

thinking of our first date
you, in that red plaid shirt
I was so ****** nervous
doesn't mean it wasn't great

the way our legs entwine in bed
there's nothing I want instead
everything feels warm in here
nothing else could ever compare

or that Friday night at the rink
I slipped and scraped my knee
but when I see the scar I smile
because it jogs my memory

walking through the forest all day
sharing with you my happy place
the trees and leaves outside are bare
but not my heart that's yours to take

the way our souls entwine in bed
there's nothing I'll ever want instead
the safest place for me is here
nothing else could ever compare

that Charleston week was when I fell
completely like a southern bell
for the perfect guy I'll ever see
you're everything in this world to me

the fire in your solar eclipse eyes
is something I can't live without
this crazy world is upside down
but all I need is you around

we elevate each other right
the universal beat of life
never felt so high up here
nothing else could ever compare

It's hard not to
wonder if you still
think of her
the way you think of me

It's hard not to
let your mind go there
left feeling insecure
not knowing yet for sure

I know age doesn't matter
that I make you happy
I know I'm the girl you want
then why do I feel ******

You spend a lot of time
making music with her
It pains me to feel jealous
that's really not who I am

I wish she wasn't so young
so beautiful and great
I wish this feeling
would just ******* go away

I know I shouldn't feel it
you wouldn't hurt me like that
I know I should just deal with it
you couldn't do me like that

It's hard not to
but I'll give it a try
because you're worth it
that I cannot deny

everything is backwards
figuring out forwards
giving it time
finally mine
if you think I'm lost
you're probably right
so I'm getting sauced
until I see the light

everything is backwards
nothing is right
but I think I might be
finally seeing the light
head is pounding
problems are mounting
somebody save me
help me with this fight

moving forwards
heaving fog is blinding
unclear the road ahead
maybe I'll just go to bed
dreaming the future
still feeling unsure
accepting this fate
makes me feel pretty great
considering this day
maybe I'll stay

i'll always wish it's you
you must have had a clue
this isn't some ******* zoo
this isn't something new

it's impossible to resist
remember last time we kissed?
it's what i've always missed
is it really worth the risk?

until we meet again
i won't know where to begin
it's like i'm living in sin
i'll keep it all within

happy hearts are ahead
the future is bright instead
i'm left hanging by a thread
inside filled with dread

sometimes when you meet someone
the heart beats faster
there's nothing better
I can't wait to see you again

feeling more alive these days
awake in this outer space
seeing double vision
a bird you can't touch

close my eyes and feel the sun
i feel it's only just begun
feels like summer in my heart
with trees taller than earth

that genuine smile gives me chills
I want unlimited refills
there's nothing I wouldn't give
to hold you close again.

it's the perfect time to start
reaching deep inside your heart
no more time to waste you see
there's no better way to feel free

what we have is all too real
close your eyes, it's time to feel
I won't bite and I won't sting
I'll give you all of my everything

because I love you every day
no way I'd ever walk away
you're the best of everything
love me always, just the same

the time has come to see truth
this task that sometimes needs proof
you're the one, it's nothing new
I believe in everything you do

now's the time to be wide awake
take the time to feel the quake
I'll hold your hand and keep you warm
be your shield from every storm

because I love you every day
there's no way I could walk away
you're the best of everything
love me always, just the same

this feeling here
I can't deny
it's coming near
to say goodbye

just walk away
is what I'll say
look deep inside
you cannot stay

my heart is yours
is this called fate?
tongue tied inside
I can relate

I can't be with you
this much I know
I'm feeling blue
I cannot show

escape is real
your hiding here
inside this deal
your showing fear

this means the end
is on it's way
I cannot bend
I cannot sway
I feel I must
just walk away

grazed knees
climbing down
from the trees
thick skin
won't give in
never fall
down again

singed eyes
no disguise
no more lies
justifies
your demise

tender there
it's everywhere
opens up
I realize
it's not to fear

I'm in the air
stripped bare
surrounded here
looking dead
inside the mirror

get closer to me
climb inside my tree
is it where you want to be?
I think, from what I can see

open your heart this time
feel it slowly make the climb
twisted all around this twine
I can help your ease unwind

listen closely, and you'll see
buzzing like a bumblebee
flowers feed your spirit free
have you floating in the sea

have your arms held open wide
there is no great divide
our spirits will collide
this time you cannot hide
because I love you

drive with me all day
I'll listen to what you have to say
make no mistake
I love you all the way

hands upon my knee
touching gently everything
give me reason to give in
softly feel this way again

distracted as I graze
your solar eclipse eyes
I'd stare into the sun
to feel that way again

just be here with me now
forget about the world
seeing things clearer this time
It seems you've reeled me in

Look at me
Just sitting here
That familiar smell
As far as I can tell
Here we are
Living in this hell
Or is it all well
Under my spell

Look inside
For real this time
Don’t walk away
Pretend it’s fine
Reach to the sky
Chills down your spine
It’s all divine
Your heart is mine

Look away
I cannot bare
In time you’ll sway
Just don’t betray
I’ll give to you
New slides to play
Be a shoulder all day
Show you a new way

sleeping while dreaming
running from everything
chasing all of nothing
getting rid of you

wandering through empty space
catching everything in sight
trying not to think
running away from you

fumbling just one more time
going towards anything else
drowning every step forward
reaching out for you

holding on to something
believing it means nothing
waiting for something clear
dreaming it will be you

where has my heart been
all this time again
reunited and it's fun
it's only just begun

totally unfolds here
it all starts to appear
maybe i'm new here
give me some time dear

breathe inside your embrace
I like the way you taste
touch your skin to mine
feel everything I can

greatest place on earth
have you seen my truth
bright as the very sun
made of only one

open up your eyes
I want you to feel it too
you need to have a clue
It feels like i'm brand new

humanity has turned away from itself
said goodbye to the inner truth
the self that feels the pain of others
listens with an open heart
reaches out to everyone
holds you close without demand

the greedy spend all the money
silencing the rest of us
leaving all the values behind
with a blind eye to the truth
have turned off the universal light
it seems we may have lost the sight

the powerful shake its people to the core
washing away all the freedoms
rinsing off leftover droplets of love
replacing them with all the lies
living life in full disguise
I will never show demise

if you choose to live this way
know that it will not end well
the last thing that we should do
is walk away from who we are within
listen to your purest heart
that is where you can hit restart

there's a treasure deep inside me
somehow I've got to find it
not just pieces parts
not in shopping carts
somewhere near the heart
is a good place to start

there's a sweet spot in me
it's not that hard to see
it's somewhere up a tree
feel the wind, feel the free
unwind the knot
give it everything you've got

there's a reason this all came to be
is it hiding inside of me?
the secret is still yet to come
I can't help but fall succumb
so please won't you forgive
but I've got plenty more to give

who am I when I'm with you?
forgetting everything right
for a few good nights

who am I when I'm with you
giving up what I believe
for that greedy primal need

who am I when I'm with you
I don't even have a clue
tomorrow shows no truth

never mind the way you feel
or how perfect this deal
this cannot become real
I still need time to heal.

it's hard to find the words
selfish little me
practice with your heart
maybe then you'll see

wrap yourself within
greedy heart of gold
insert the sturdy mold
do you feel me here again

heavy sinking charm
can you do no harm
swim across the sea
through every blade of grass

snow kissed and fresh
the earth is still tonight
breathe it all in
and let it begin again.

it's you I think about at night
olive skin, deepest stare
the one with the solar eclipse eyes

sometimes love is hard
if you wonder if it's worth the sting
it's not the real thing

all the warmth inside your heart
something like the sun
with you, there's no disguise

nothing here that's left to shake
I feel like I'm awake
everything I have is yours to take

I'm simply just a girl
who can't imagine life without you
you make me see the whole world

stick with me through every fight
you could hold my hand tonight
keep me warm all through the night

slowly with my headphones on
disappear without a trace
nothing matters when I'm gone
drifting in this outer space

with my heart that's open wide
nothing here will go to waste
stupid rules I won't abide
beating through the steady pace

with my head inside your arms
warmest place is that embrace
lost inside your sweetest charms
breathing slowly for a taste

with you, I found the greatest gift
the willingness to take the fall
this way I'll never feel adrift
it seems as though I've got it all

hello universe
have you forgotten me
all the stars
seem to disappear

hello blue skies
live inside me
justify yourself
melt all over me

dearest everyone
can you forgive me
I've lost myself
inside the loneliness

hello universe
try to remember
under the stars
in blades of grass
I am here

love is
not holding back
not giving in
with all your might
i think

love is
just a feeling
not a bad thing
things are looking right
i think

love feels
like the warm breeze
at my heart strings
now i see the light
i think

love is
when i think of you
my heart swells
i can't think
i just know

your moves
they take me
and erase my
worried silly mind
one more time

when I get
really lonely
I think about
the warm nights
inside your bed

cause I know
this will pass
just some times
i just wish
you'd come running

take your time
no need to rush
hold my hand
you're worth the wait
make no mistake

take this chaos
turn it into light
I can't help but want you
another time

give me something
anything but your silence
it's clear you've let go
this time tonight

electric shock to start
your magic I cling to
every single part
I just keep hoping

give me a chance
and i'll hold on tight
with both hands
inside my swelling heart

open up your world to me
I can help you feel free tonight
break the tallest brick walls down
no more chance of feeling bound

open up your eyes and see
face the past and grow with me
tear the dark and fill with light
look with beauty in your sight

open up your heart to me
give this gift a chance to be
something bigger than everything
nothing like we could ever dream

If I sit around and think
all the times I couldn't speak
trying to fit into your life
but I shouldn't feel the strife

who exactly do you want
do you even feel a spot
in your heart for me to grow
If you felt, it didn't show

I can't bare to see you now
you should probably take a bow
you may think you've won the fight
if you feel you think you might

no, you cannot see this frown
if you think you've got me down
there's a chance you might be right
but I'll never tell you now

who do you think you are
when I think, I feel the scar
for this heart of gold will heal
because I know just how to feel

hold it now
take a breath
feel the smoke
disappear

to be alone
with no regret
too many reasons
to just stay at home

someday
you'll feel my love
as you tear the fabric
off my dress

my heart is your chest
leap inside this mess
have a look
then come inside

Cold winter
wind blows
upon my cheek
shivering toes
ice blisters
frost nibbles
every inch of me

Hot blood
Every splinter
cuts deep
into my heart
razor sharp
bleeding art
end to the start

Mild manners
keep your hands off
unzip your dress
my success
is the compass
giving you it all
take my best
and then all the rest

jesus, ****.
can i get a hit?
spin that record
respect the words
have you seen me?

****, man.
I'm feeling sorry
for you forever
give me a second

nope, wait.
give me something
tight fit
drag me out of here

look at me
living here
like an alien
in your world

something tells me it's right here
this night dear
it's quite clear

something in me just can't speak
i can't think
i can't blink

something's troubling
something's tumbling
no short comings
in this running

you've made it quite clear
how you feel
it's your deal

you hide beneath fears
with no tears
listen up dear

i wish your heart could stand
just one more fight
it's not right

sitting here inside this dream
wake up, maybe try to scream
the feeling deep inside my fear
that there's a chance you'll disappear

painting a picture in my head
of you here, inside my bed
arms held close and I lose sight
thinking of you this night

smother me with all the love
you fit with me just like a glove
this thing we have is pretty fun
when I'm with you, I come undone

never mind the lesser past
I get to be with you at last
ride you like this tidal wave
lately I've been feeling brave

wake up
discover who you are
break up
forever it's unfair
turn up
the music in the air

if you wanna give up
you decided to jump
get your *** over here
if you want me to be there

give in
if you wanted to win
pretend
knowing how to begin
hey you
am I under your skin?

lay down on the ground
look up, see the clouds
open up your heart to me
last place you thought you'd be

this part will give you more
just walk on through the door
put your hand in mine
feel the warmth inside

lets not play rewind
I can't help but feel blind
inside these heavy walls
meet me on the other side

a subtle wound is all
that pierces all of me
this time it's too thick
a thorn for every trick

you must know how I feel
I can tell that's real
there's something in your smell
I know it all too well

It's easier over there
where everything is bare
struggling for the words
leave it for the birds

conclusion must it be
will you ever see?
darkness won't help us here
it's about you and me

give yourself a chance
entertain this gift
create your own path
we've all been set adrift

we all want to feel alive
want the happiness to be real
we have to survive
there's no better deal

have some faith this time
justify your right to live
we are all the true divine
almost out of time to give

make me believe your love
forgive me if I go inside
you're all up above
I might just run and hide

forgive my stubborn pride
it's the mask I sometimes wear
to keep the fear inside
every wound has it's own tear

with every drop of earth I dig
the path to learn again
with every inch of pain
I turn and start again

I see beauty
inside your heart
inside your eyes
inside this bed
and in the skies

I see big love
under the stars
under these sheets
under your wars
in everything so far

I see the truth
that sits below
stay quiet please
and let it rain
down from the stars

I can't explain
everything that is
or why you're sad
but just you know
I love you a lot
and want you to shine.

someone found the future
in your tear drops
in the morning

looking at the paper
what's my fortune
just more bad news

giving myself the easy
lazy way out
giving myself reason
not to grow up

last night
i was about to
throw it
all away
just for you

Sometimes I will lose my way
just like you, I can betray
my heart ignores the given chance
to learn again the rules to play

Sometimes I will forget a name
just like you, I lose my game
my mind will never be flawless
just one more time it wants the fame

Sometimes I will lose my sight
no matter how I hold on tight
my soul will tend to lose the path
and just like you, I'll see at last

running fast
fists in the air
raindrops blast
every fiber coats
every inch of me
i can't bare

growing past
the world it seems
learning nothing
every second moves
every whisper speaks
i can't bare

calmer seas
nicer breeze
mindless drones
wash upon sands
giving hope

brazen knees
climbing trees
haven't you seen
where do i begin?

inside I am waiting
it's all aggravating
all the pain forsaking
no more belly aching
this time saturating
the power mine for taking
it's really quite groundbreaking
the inner workings greatly
just hold yourself impatiently
while the world keeps changing
driven mad screams angrily
sitting here relating
it has to come so hastily
remember we can live freely
starting with our inner being

knocking at your door
but your never there
tripping over it again
running from the fear
yearning for that lust
something that I trust
can’t you see me there
looking through the glass
can’t you feel me there
wanting you at last

swinging from the tree
look at me over here
smells divine the air
at least here I feel free

running down the street
skip a block or two
it seems it's been a few
at least I feel the beat

holding hands all night
fingers entwined
helps me unwind
I guess it feels alright

If you give me space
I can finish the race
do it all at my pace
I just want a taste

If you walk away now
I can disappear
never facing the fear
don't think I'm not aware

reveal yourself to me
I think I can set you free
why don't you know
who you want to be

I'm saying goodbye to you
this time I mean adieu
I'll walk you to the door

my hearts been bruised
I'm feeling used and abused
It's nothing to cry about

you might feel dark
there's no hint of spark
but that can never be me
It's not what's mean to be.

he tries he tries
he works all the time
never skips a beat
making life happen

he plays he sings
his voice screams
he never skips a beat
living with all the love

i can see it in his eyes
the pain he keeps at bay
i can hear it in his songs
he screams the pain away

striving for it all
never giving up
gripping at the past
dance it all away

he wants it so bad
and it's his to have
he deserves it all
guess what
the cats out of the bag

seen together
walk with me
make me better
just believe

jump for me
under my skin
keep it forever
just try to see

here I am
this is me
lost together
lost at sea.
