You’re the reason that I daydream
Because you’re the reason that I can’t sleep
And I just can’t help myself
When this old comfy bed becomes a cell

When I lay awake at night
With both of my eyes open wide

Why are you the only one I see
When you aren’t even lying next to me
And even if I know
I’ll keep searching in shadows

They wonder what it’s like
To see shadows where there should be light
Like crystals to the mid-day sun
I could shine bright and I’d still be dull

As I lay awake tonight
With both of my eyes open wide

Why are you the only one I see
When you aren’t even lying next to me
And even if I know
I’ll keep searching in the shadows

Tomorrow I hope I’ll be fine
I’m still searching for my peace of mind
Maybe if I get some rest tonight
I’ll see it was right in front of my eyes

Don’t think about it for too long
This might start to look like a love song

Sorry, but I’m too lost for you to find
Pal, I’m sorry for being so blind

Why are you the only one I see
When you aren’t even lying next to me
And even if I know
I’ll keep searching in the shadows

I know now, I do miss you when you’re gone.

Why?

Why do I have to hang out with this crowd of people?
They are slowing drowning me with bad thoughts and actions.
All of them are fake and I don't know how to say no to them.
Why can't I just let go of them and be with her?

Whenever I push them away,
They come right back.
Begging me to stay saying,
Why would you want to be with her?
She's lonely and pathetic.
She could never be one of us.
Why don't they see that I'm in love and that's never going to change?

Why can't she see that I love her?
I try to show it by humor and kindness.
But she ignores me when I'm not alone.
Why don't we talk like the way I want to?
A couple of hellos in the halls,
Doesn't satisfy me.
She walks with her head down,
Avoiding anyone.
I wish I could change that somehow.
Why is she so beautiful?
I love the way her hair falls as she runs her fingers through it,
How her green eyes sparkle when she laughs her adorable laugh.
I get lost in her emerald eyes and it feels like I am finally at the surface. No longer drowning,
But alive and happy.
Why can't I make her laugh as often as I'd like?
Because all the ***** cling to me and I can't breathe.
I hate them and love her.
Why can't she love me?


But I feel as if someday,
I will find the courage to say,
I love you.


You are the reason I can breathe again...

Why don't you love me like I love you?
I try so hard to let you know how I feel.
I laugh at your "funny" jokes, bat my eyes, and flip my hair.
But----
You don't care.

You stare at the prettier girls. And they stare right back. Whenever they are around you ignore me, except for a few words in the hall. A quick glance is all I get from you. But as soon as they are all away, you change. You strike up a conversation and I enjoy the time I have before you leave again.

I find myself getting lost in your eyes. Those beautiful brown eyes. Sometimes I think that you can stare straight into my soul with those eyes but the thought quickly vanishes when the prettier ones show up and you leave. Back to ignoring me and I am once again alone.

Completely and utterly alone.

I walked upon broken glass to prove myself to thee, cause if I can’t then who the **** would wanna believe? Someone as young as me. Someone as dumb as me. You tried to show me who to be. I shattered the mirror and told him he’s what I didn’t need. I got you down on both knees, you're begging me please. I shouted out I’m hungry. Lets feast. Let go of the beast and I let him eat. I’ll separate your bones from the meat. The hearts from the weak. Now you’ve planted a seed in me, and it exceeds all I thought I could handle of misery. It just keeps growing as it consumes me. And if you didn’t see it takes a keen eye to see, and I'll get hurt again as long as I continue to breathe. But my eyes as bright as the stars I see. But who else but me could see the emptiness between. I still got some fight left, but I’ll go down eventually. Softly I'll say as I fall asleep, “I’d do it all again, just you wait and see."

Take me away from this place
I don't want to stay
And I know that your there
Doesn't anyone care?
I want to be anywhere but here
If I fight, will you stay?
Or will you walk, walk away?
And I know that you care
So why weren't you there?
You were everywhere but here
But, if today you would die
Would you look down from the sky?
Would you know that I cared?
Your looking down from up there
You want to see me anywhere but here
When we die, it'll be
A horrible tragedy
But we'll laugh it up loud
We're finally together now
When tonight, we look down
We will see all these crowns
Of these kings and their queens
And we know what they mean
To the one's that they love
While we sit up above
We'll be alone together
Tonight starts forever
I wish it was anywhere but here.

Love,
Such a funny word.
We use it in front of pizza, the sky, or the birds.
But we never truly mean it,
Until we find someone
That loves you for you and no one---
Else.

Love,
Such a silly game,
We play. All night and all day.
Until you find someone,
Who changes the game.
Until it is no longer a game, but a force.
A force so strong that only God can break the bond...

The bond of **love.
