I’m not worried because I know
most people will just come and go
and when I see the one
I think I’ll know
together we will bend and grow
although we haven’t met
we are preparing for each other
in the meantime we fall for others
but we will land at the crossroads
and hand in hand we choose which direction to go.

you’re the type of guy
who’s caught looking up at the sky
my reflection found in your eyes
you do whatever you want
as long as you believe it’s right
the type of guy who gets along
but never backs down from a fight

I will nurture you like sun to vines
outrageous off the walls and totally unprepared
but we will leap and take flight
who cares I’m not worried
because you’re the one
and we both know neither of us is going anywhere
alone

I can’t see the sunshine
but I know it’s there
I am all understanding
but I feel like my answers
are floating in the air
though the trees are tall
and the leafs are healthy
gaps reveal the sky
but I still can’t see the sunshine
I made my decision
to make up my mind
I will exceed
every aspect will rise
every tree, I want to climb
but I’m too afraid
after I’m done
I still won’t see the sunshine
what if I brought someone with me
lend a hand from
the branches I can’t reach
sense the signs
that I still am
too naive to read
and on top we will succeed
and the sunshine
with all its meaning
I could not before,
but now I do see

When I think of you
My whole personality glows
You’re the string in my stitching
And I don’t care if everybody knows
You raised me well
And made me think
Made me question, and best of all,
You made me, me.
The day your gone is the day I fall weak
But I’ll do good for you and stay strong
My life goal is to carry all of you I hold on
It won’t be long for me to grow
And we'll discover our true mold
I hope I do as well as you
I want to make my children glow
Stitch them together
And help them grow
Be in their hearts like you are in mine
More than you can possibly know

I turn my key and start the car
I swear I heard your laugh in the distance
Why do you deny that our happiness ever existed?
Head down the freeway, but the roads are twisted
I can’t turn around on this one way road
Can’t find the exit, must have missed it in the snow
You make me feel so cold
I need a sign but how would I know
I can’t decide if I should stay or go
So I just keep going
As if on cue, I’m swallowed
All my thoughts slow
I guess maybe I’m meant to be alone
I know I don’t need him
But where else would if go?
So many options but I only want you to know
I love you so please don’t go
You can’t hear me now
I’ve sunken so low
Who’s here now when I have nowhere to go?
I can’t move I’m buried in this snow
Please let me in
You’ve made me so cold

Resist most
let a few in
hide behind a wall that appears paper thin
watch it dissolve
into sticky fly paper
people are compelled
instantly attracted
you let people in
and begin to form a bond
if they leave
part of you corresponds
as you add on to the wall
you prevent intrusion
it all adds on to the illusion
the inside seems so great
because it was made so hard to penetrate
the thicker the wall
the longer they stay
rewards come soon
to those who are welcomed
because behind that fly paper
is all of your imagination
so share out loud your thoughts and consolations
the air around you the air inside
is filled with admiration
and overflowing with pride
because now that your inside
you are forever mine.
