i was up late last night
because i needed to write
all these emotions
and my devotions

i was up late last night
trying to figure out why
it was hard for me to say
what i needed to say

it's like you're a bird flying back and forth
telling me things you never even said
it's like this strange script written in my head
from all of the things i wish you said
better than a movie
better than a dream
better than any book i've ever read
you were running in my mind
that's why i was up late last night

i was up late last night
because i couldn't get it right
the words and the things
i needed to make you mine

i was up late last night
trying to figure out why
you could do all this
without even a kiss

it's like you're a song playing on and on
a little overrated but it never gets old
it's one of those a hopeless romantic sings along to
in the car driving home all alone
better than a movie
better than a dream
better than any book i've ever read
you were running in my mind
that's why i was up late last night

only if you felt the same
and you came up to me to say,
that you wanted me to be yours

i wouldn't be awake this late
losing sleep believing in fate
that someday you'll be mine

we can be better than any movie
better than your dream
better than any book you'll ever read
only if you were mine

it's like you're everything i've been looking for
crazy how it took me this long
but it's like you're everything every girl wants
that's why it's so hard to get you
better than a movie
better than a dream
better than any book i ever read
you were running in my mind
that's why i was up late last night

When it's sunny where you are,
it's pouring rain where I am

You're at the top of my list,
but am I even on your mind?

All I see is you,
but it seems I'm invisible to you

I'm always sweet to you
you're nothing but bitter to me.

We were on cloud nine,
You called me sunshine,
but that was when
you were mine.

I'm mesmerized by your eyes,
and the way you say my name,
and you look like an angel to me.

Our love reminds me of fireworks.
We were so pretty and bright,
but we ended in the blink of an eye.
And before i could take a picture,
you went away.

I hope someday you will look back
at everything we had and realize it was beautiful
beautiful until you tore it all up
And regret what you've done
And I hope by then I am no longer chained to this pain called heartbreak and I'm happy without you

Give me hope,
and something to hold on to.
Give me the rope,
because this one is ripping in two.
Now all I see is blue,
I'm falling through.
So give me hope.

he said he loves me to the moon and back, and i believe he loves me so. it's just that i can't forget how you loved me to the sun and back.

i loved you.
see that?
i loved you.
and a part of me still wishes it was present tense,
but i'm smart enough to know that you don't deserve my love anymore,
if you even did in the first place.

if he says he loves you
run from him
because if he really loved you
if would chase after you

happiness;
it is not the cycle
of night skies full of raining stars
and bright mornings.

it is to be able to hold up
an umbrella for the one you love
under the pouring rain.

in a photograph
you won't see the tears
or the clouds moving past
you won't see the feelings

but my head
it's stained with tears
and things moving too fast
it's filled with the feelings

silent honesty;
it’s when you’re standing on the grass and you tell the rose she’s a beauty
well, isn’t she?
you feel it’s a duty
to only verbalize the nicest things out of all you’re thinking
but if you think their words cut like knives
then your silence stings like bees
