Lately it's been hard to comprehend
The fact that I cannot defend
Every ounce of blood I shed
is just to keep up with that smile like where did all those feelings end
it goes heart thump - its beating fast
Lungs pump those trees and ash
Maybe we can go to a far away place but you simply know it's you and me at last
Wow
Then I feel you blow it in my face
Those peter blues got me thinking you've made all of these ignorant mistakes
Like your ex-man - no wolverine
Up and left your side for a European
Chick with her hair slicked back and you feel you need to drop a size or two in jeans
No
I think you're beautiful in every way
And if you take my hand I guarantee we'll search for better days
I've had it rough, You've had it rougher
We'll fight and argue, But we have each other
And understand that no one else can do you better, through these measures
Still together, Me and You the two forever.

"Just get over it" they say, I wish I could find a way
living with it day by day, with memories that just wont go away
Darkness is where I belong, I was doomed all along.
How many people have I torn down? How many friends have I beaten to the ground?
Even though I tried my best to stop the pain, Somehow it still came.
I never meant to betray anyone, I will never be able to forgive what I've done.
Now as my life starts to come to its end, I try as hard as I can just to find a friend.
But everyone always leaves me forgotten, They all think that I'm so rotten.
They all left me stranded, So now I lie, hurt, dying, and abandoned.
They all know what I've done, But only I know what I've become.
There is only one light that seems to glow, A light that might finally show me the way I must go.
I've been lost in the darkness for so long, I can no longer tell right from wrong.
I know that you're the one who could save my life, Please be the one to block the deadly knife.
My wounds won't seem to heal, And my life no longer seems real.
I'm not going to ask you for much, I only want to feel your touch.
I want to know that I can still feel, That there might be a chance for me to heal.
You have to help me before my soul is gone, All I need is a shoulder to cry on.
Please, save me from myself, I know that this might be my second chance.
I need to wake from this trance, I need someone to hold me and never let me go.
I have become my worst, and most deadly foe I just want someone who will accept me for who I am.
I know you're the only one who would understand. But time is running short, And this is my last resort
.
But will I ever have the courage to tell you how I feel? Will my fantasy ever become real.
I know your the one, because we're the same.You the one to save me from the pain.
Save me from the monster I've become, So I can forget what I've done.
I know you'll accept me, despite my faults. I'm about to dance my last waltz.
But if you were the one to ask me to dance, I'd know I'd have gained my second chance.
I know you're the one, please, I beg, quickly before I pull the trigger on the gun
I need to find something fun, before im done, And soon it shall be if you don't set me free.

Although im not their mother
I care for them each day
I cuddle sing and read to them
And watch them as they play
I see each new accomplishment
I help them grow and learn
I understand ttheir language
I listen with concern
They come to me for comfort
I kiss away the tears
They proudly show their work to me
I give the loudest cheers
No im not their mother
But my role just as strong
I nurture then and keep them safe
Though maybe not for long
I know someday the time will come
When we will have to part
But i know each child i cared for
Is forever in my heart!

I ne'er was struck before that hour with love so sudden and so sweet,
his face bloomed like a sweet flower and stole my heart away complete
My face turned pale as deadly pale,
my legs refused to walk away,
and then he looked, what could i ail?
my life and all seemed to turn to day
and then my blood rushed to my face
and took my eyesight quite away
the trees and bushes around the place
seemed midnight and noonday
i could not see a single thing
words from my eyes did start -
they spoke as chords do from the string
and blood burnt around my heart
are flowers the winters choice?
is love's bed always snow?
he seemed to hear my silent voice
not loves appeals to know
i never saw so sweet a face
as that i stood before
my heart has left its dwelling place
and can return no more

Cinderella, why do you wish to be pretty?
What you have is called inner beauty
I’m not giving you my pity

Cinderella, Why don’t you stand up to those snobs?
They are garbage compared to you
The people who rob
End up blue

Cinderella, Why don’t you take what’s yours?
And not just dust either
Stop doing those chores

Cinderella, Why don’t you go out?
Not as a maid but who you really are
Go a different route
You will shine like a star

Cinderella, why don’t you let the beauty out?
The prince will like you for you
Go out and about
Forget the glass shoe

Cinderella, why don’t you forget its midnight?
Show the prince who you really are
You wont win without a fight
I’m telling you shine like star

Be yourself not someone else Cinderella, why do you wish to be pretty?
What you have is called inner beauty
I’m not giving you my pity

Its better to feel pain than nothing at all
out of love with you I just cant fall
This times I really think its beyond my repair
I feel its quiet unfair
My heart broken, no pride
Lost without you and nowhere to hide
Kindness I have lost
I guess ill pay the cost
For now it seems fine
Sit back have a wine
wine turns to beer
I live in fear  
Of having no friends
One day it all ends
The cycle goes round
'Then you are found
By the man of your dreams
His hair it gleams
You end up married
Then a boy you carried
You gave birth to him
You smile and grin
I was left with no one
And his heart i have won

Love seen through your eyes, I sit and believe your lies
Lies for sure I know, but I never let it show
I gave you my all, and you let me fall
Your telling me to be free, but I don’t want to be
All I do is try, I may as well die
Deep within or not so far down, I think I deserve a crown
For all ive faced, and that time I misplaced
They think I have it easy, but they don’t know about evie
My little girl I brought to life, before I was a wife
Letting her go was hard, I put up a guard
All the things my little girl would’ve seen, all she could’ve been
My poor evie rose, imagine her toes
The things id do for just one hold, before I grow to old
