The day sneaks up behind me
Telling me my time has come
Time to leave behind all that I've worked for
Knocking on every door
Begging  for a chance at life
I'm leaving and I have one wish
Don't forget me when I leave
Don't forget me when I fall into the emptiness
Don't forget me when I try to escape what consumes me
My time has come to say goodbye
My flight to the heavens has arrived
Survived the battle of life for so long
Everyday closer to the loss of this everlasting battle
Don't know if my imprints in this life will last forever
I'm leaving and I have one wish
Don't let me drift away into the nothingness of the forgotten
Don't let me fade into a memory
Don't let me be lost amongst the commons
I came and I made my mark
Used my dreams to light way out of the dark
Wanna be remembered as more then just a common man
Want people to give a **** about me when I leave this cage
Don't want to be recieved into the hands of the unmourned
Don't want to spend eternity feeling forlorn
I'm leaving and I have just one wish
Don't let me turn into a torn page from a notebook
All I have in this world means nothing when I'm gone
I don't want all that you have of me to be just another memory
Want my story told for all to hear
So I can rid myself of this fear
I'm leaving and I have just one wish
Don't leave me in this cage lingering in the dark space in the back of your mind
Don't wanna be lost for no one to find
Getting tired of being left behind
Stepped up on this plateau
Up here for the world to see
That this is me and I won't be forgotten
Won't be forgotten
I'm leaving this world and I have just one wish
One wish
Don't forget me
Don't forget me

I don't know how you got in
But I can't get you out of my head
You came and turned my world right side up
Couldn't see the bright side until I looked into your eyes
Woke on the wrong side of the bed everyday
Now it doesn't matter where I wake up
As long as I'm next to you

Kylin
Around you I can't help smiling
And it isn't going anywhere
Kylin
With one touch you got me flying
And I'm not coming down anytime soon
Kylin
The view is much better with you
Up here in outer space

Your kiss so addicting
Your touch got me tripping
A smile that's got me buzzing
Feeling everything and nothing at the same time
The sounds you make
Sweeter than any melody
You've got this energy I wanna dive into
Let's commit some divine sins
I've been living for a while
But for the first time I feel alive

Kylin
Around you I can't help smiling
And it isn't going anywhere
Kylin
With one touch you got me flying
And I'm not coming down anytime soon
Kylin
The view is much better with you
Up here in outer space

You had pieces of me I didn't even know were missing
You were the answer to questions I didn't know to ask
You were the destination though I didn't know where I was going
You were the breathe though I didn't know I was suffocating
You were the ending to a story I didn't know I was writing
You are destiny disguised as happenstance

Kylin
Around you I can't help smiling
And it isn't going anywhere
Kylin
With one touch you got me flying
And I'm not coming down anytime soon
Kylin
The view is much better with you
Up here in outer space

Lit cigarette sits in the ashtray
Bottle caps scattered all around
Silence the only sound
She takes a drag as he takes a sip
Next to each other but a million miles apart
Out in the world it's a shell made of rainbows and butterflies
Hand holding and loving stares
Behind these four walls it all falls apart
She wonders where she's gone
What used to feel so right now feels so wrong
He looks in her eyes to find the light that's gone away
There's nothing he won't do to bring her back
But it's out of his hands
He'll be patient, he'll wait
In his heart he knows she'll be back one day
She traces get steps but seems to have lost her way
He can see she cares
Even through the blank stares
He can see her under there
Still in the works

I was thirteen when I first took this pen in hand
And the words flowed out of me
Emptying my soul where I stand
Picked up my guitar and strummed
Pieced together my first song
I hope they resonate long after I'm gone
Cause I can see the light
The ocean calls my name
The end of the road is near
I can hear the collective sigh of relief
When my coffins closed
Play my words
Maybe now they'll mean something
Now that I'm not here to speak them
Someone will listen
I hope my words fall on you
Like raindrops on your skin
Let them sink in  
Let them glisten
Let them resonate
Satiate your dreams
Nothing in this world is as it seems
In the works

Make up your mind
Cause sooner or later you're gonna find
Youself all alone
I can't take this anymore
One minute you love me
The next you hate
One minute you need me
The next I'm thrown by the way side
One minute you're running to me
The next you're walking away
You wear me down with the words you say
And the things you do
I don't know who you turn into
And I don't know how to get you back
One minute you don't wanna get out of bed
The next you don't come around
One minute you make me feel alive
The next I wish that I could crawl up and die
I let it go
I let it slide one too many times
But I can't do this anymore
I don't know what it is that sets you off
I don't know who you are
Or where you go
But when you come
Back I'll be gone

You see the smile on my face
What you don't see is the tape and glue
Holding me together
Stitches and scars
Every one with its own story
Despite all this I've come so far

So pull me apart love
Break me down and
Leave me bleeding
I'll pick myself up
And keep living this life I'm leading
Give me your worst
I'd rather take this chance on you
Than sit with the what ifs
And could have beens
Still in the works

You never know when inspiration will strike
There you were dancing on the rooftop
Lit cigarette in hand
This pen is my paintbrush
I try to paint you with words
I try to capture your essence
But I fail
Searching my arsenal of words to no avail
Hair flowing like wheat in the wind
Eyes like burning ember
With each motion of the of the pen
My inability to illustrate became more apparent

Spent so much time trying to find the words
To get you across to you
Searching for eloquence
But there's so much elegance in simplicity
Take a seat behind my eyes
Take a peak, catch a glimpse
And see that you are a masterpiece
Words could never capture the beauty from your skin to your soul
Hasn't been that long since we met
But you've taken my heart yet I still feel whole
