By Arcassin Burnham I was looking for a dime like you, Not a nickel , not a quarter , not a penny, pretty one......... Pretty one, I want the kind of girl like you to have plenty like your Smile in the sun, pretty one .......... Pretty one, The smart remarks they make me laugh like I was nothing to you , only just a figment of some old past, I'm leaving , pretty one...........pretty one, Swear you're worth more than a date or just any old movie Scrolling through your childhood , your attitude is gapping, Pretty one........ pretty one, I was looking for a dime like you, Not a nickel , not a quarter , not a penny, pretty one......... Pretty one, I want the kind of girl like you to have plenty like your Smile in the sun, pretty one .......... Pretty one.

Pretty One
If there's doubt it's probably wrong If it burns it's because it's hot If it breaks it was never strong If it's real it can't be bought If it rains it's bound to pour If it makes you crazy you should run If it truly sees you it won't ignore If it's intended there's probably a pun If it's perfect it's definitely flawed If there's no proof then it's not legit If it perpetrates it's a bonafide fraud If it's not the right size it's not a good fit If it meets you halfway that's not enough If it hurts it can't possibly be true love

What It's Not
You're still so far away I don't know where to start, How hard it rained the day I left And the pain driving into my heart, I remember her sitting there, staring at me, A lump in my throat, it was near Halloween, Her short hair, her brown eyes so keen, so sharp, Like she could cut right through me, Like that day you broke my heart, And only I know who you really are, And this empty dryness still wont leave, I don't expect your loving me although love is free, Don't forget though that my love has always been near, I've always been watching and waiting year after year It's just a little bit farther, reach for the sparkling stars, It can all be over soon, but I'm still not sure where to start, The suffering in your life and your pain can all end soon, I'll be in your arms just call me, find me, I'll be waiting for you.

I'm in captivated by those words you set ajar Those words meaningless to you, Sometimes I ask myself why you released them But I have no clue. Those words mean so much to me If only you'd have meant them, They'd be the caption of me They'd be my single emblem.

Filling The Blanks
Baby please come back Cause you are my life's purpose, Babe when your around I don't get scared I don't even get nervous. I need you back in my heart Cause the keeps getting colder, You warm up every day Because your so much bolder.

Lack Of You
These feelings bind my day, making the next worth it But every second I feel every moment that passes, I can only think of you every day and every night its the explanation of why I'm failing my classes. My lack of you is my life's flaw You are the missing piece of me, I need you so much babe Wherever you may be.
