Over the years ive cried many tears
trying to escape my darkest fears

i make mistakes
but who is to say that life is a piece of cake?

We are who we are
we are each a piece of art

ill be there to wipe away your tears
like i have been for all these years

Please dont judge me when i do something wrong
because love im barely pulling along

if i should die young
i ask to be remembered as someone who has made a difference
too people no matter how far in distance
in time

cause all i can do is try.

Sitting
in the stands
the mic
makes a
HIGH pItChEd SQUEEEL
as the host sloooowwwwly approaches
his steps f......a......i......n....t
and                                                                                             distant
anxious
afraid
and AWKWARD
He holds- the medal
in his  
Putty hands
as he calls out-          MY name

trying to find
the words
to make you
understand

what you
mean to me
but for now
i will just take your hand

i will
be your light
and guide you
through the dark

i hope to be
your shooting star...

just show you
how special you truly are.

and in the end
it is just you and me
just the way
it is meant to be

when it rains
it pours
and now your soul
will forever soar

up in the kingdom
with the lord
may we take this sadness
and let it grow-
into something beautiful
in your name.

Oh how I wish
we would have known
that the darkness
was taking control

you will be
forever missed
my brother
until the day
we meet again

you sat
three rows away
i did not even bother
to get to know your name

now it is too late

a month ago
you passed away
but I really wish
you would
have stayed

we received
an email
two days later
informing us
of your passing

it was
Easter
and
you were already gone

18 years young
but
you are already
up with God
in Heaven above

You are always there to pick me up;when i fall down,
Oh how one person can turn your life around
you are always there embracing me with a comforting hug,
Your comfort is my only drug

shake the stress away
make everything seem okay
watch me lose myself in your eyes
what lays beneath is the only thing i thrive

i know at times i can be a a**
But atleast you know that im not a piece of trash
Thankyou for all the things you do
and know that i know the words you say are true

i believe in you

My momma dont know that i have a secret
if i share are you gonna be able to keep it
just so you know i dont regret it
the pieces of this secret just seemed to fit

im on here with out my mommas permission
im on here to get a little recognition
i am here to receive my mission
to me writing is no competition

it is my love and compassion
this is how i sort out my depression
but if you ask me i have no talent
how do u like my confession

Everyone i left has came crawling back,
They think i'll lead them on the right track,
Listen here I forgive but Never forget,
I'll have you begging on your knees at my doorstep

Once I leave I'm done,
If i take you back baby the game has just begun,
Dont hate the player, hate the game,
Sweetie you have had your two minutes of fame

no one is exactly like me,
And trust me im no cup of tea,
So step up to the plate,
And get your facts straight

this is where it all begins,
the drama, the secrets, the friendships that never end,
it is inside these walls,
where things hurt the most

the bad days,
won't ever end,
there is name calling,
and fighting everywhere we turn

will it ever end?
who will we trust when the day ends?
hopefully someone,
but those things are left un-said

there are people that are going to hate,
just lift your head up high,
and say you just wait,
than say goodbye and walk away

When i open up my mouth im afraid of what ill say,
Sometimes i wish i could just disappear to somewhere far away,
Things would be better off if i didn't stay

Im the type of girl who sits in the corner,
Living here in Hell is complete torture,
I hurt the ones i love,
Where is my guidance from above?

Do i have a chance?
Ive lost all my strength,
It has been beaten out of me
Is this truly how you want my life to be?

Let's take this moment
to sit back and press rewind
Pause.
Every time you have crossed my mind
let you know that we will be just fine
I will be your sun shine

we keep losing track of time
everytime our relationship begins to climb
I can't shake you from my mind
and when you take a look inside -
you'll see what I've put on the line

for you I'd run a million miles
just to see your precious smile
i'd wait to walk down the aisle
only if you promised to stay awhile

but

this constant fighting is crushing my heart,
I never want to be apart
I wish we could get off to a fresh new start
but we only continue to break further and further apart.
