As I lay in your arms every night
Wide awake till the warm morning light
I can tell by the smile on your face
That you're dreaming of warm summer days
When we would ride our bikes and play
Until the sun went down and our moms call our names
Sometimes when I feel the breeze
As I stand outside beneath the trees
I look up, enchanted by the leaves as they blow
And some nights when I feel the need
I'll go stand outside beneath the trees
And I'll watch the lightning bugs all eve as they glow
As we walk through the warm summer rain
Not a reason at all to complain
I believe that we're happier now
Than the gods, and that fate should allow
And it just gets better from here
We just hold hands and all our problems disappear
And when the stars shine down on me, and illuminate your face
I remember when we would sneak, out to look at the Milky Way
And we would formulate our dreams, nothing could stand in our way
And our problems seemed so small, as they'd all melt away

Unhappily Ever After
05:44
|
|

At four my mommy told me that she loved me and she'd hold me
I never met my father- never called once, didn't bother
At six I met my step-dad, he seemed cool but he'd sure get mad
At mom then she'd start drinking, get depressed and then start screaming
Bastard! You never really loved me, all you do is argue and try to get the
last word! Can't you see it's your fault I'm drinking, crying myself to sleep at night?
Then at twelve I took the trash out, broke the door, glass slit my wrist ow
I could not stop the bleeding, mom got pissed and started screaming
"Get your blood off my floor, it's your fault you'll pay for that door" and
Who knew that my affliction would soon serve as my addiction?
And that hurt! But it made me feel so much better never lost it again
Helped me to master, all of my emotions the cutting seemed to take all my pain away
The years went by, got my head slammed in the door a few times.
But I didn't cry cause I liked the pain
She and I grew so far apart she barely knew me,
Then I grew my hair out to hide my face
At fifteen my mother wondered if she should abort my brother
Had me make her decision - life or death - I said "Keep with him"
She hated me for months, cut back on alcohol and drugs but
Took it all out on me and Dylan who was barely three then she'd get
Plastered! Disappear for weeks, left the babies by themselves or with me, I finally asked her: "What the hell is wrong with you, mom? I just can't take it I'm going to leave."
At twenty-one got a call- the house burned down, they'd lost it all and
My grandma burned alive inside my childhood house that night then
At twenty-two both brothers lived with me, hated their mother
She called me that December, talked about what she remembered
She said she had regrets, that she had failed but tried her best and
She was afraid of dying- she was bleeding, she was crying
Asked me if it was okay if she took some pills and OD'd
Had me make her decision- life or death- I said keep living
She bled to death that night in her chair- cold, alone, and frightened
As I cleaned up her mess I still felt nothing, I confess, but
Years later feelings surfaced, I feel pain and have no purpose
Other than raise my daughter- I can still be a good father
I just go through the motions, just because I lack emotions
They're somewhere deep inside me I Keep searching they keep hiding
I hide behind my smile, I sometimes laugh, and sometimes cry, but
Just know I'll never change, but that's okay I'm not deranged
I'm an actor. Going through the scenes, I've got Zoey so I know we'll
live happily ever after. Gonna be the dad that I never had and nothing can stop me now
Nothing can stop me now
Nothing can stop me now

In the back of my mind there's a place you can find
all the memories, I wish I could hide
Whether I'm awake or asleep; through my days and my dreams
I relive your memories, time after time
It's like I memorized the lines upon your face when you would cry
And when I close my eyes, it's all I ever see (see)
And I look for a way to forget yesterday's lonely memories
that won't go away
I pretend to have fun, but the end of this gun holds the remedies
but I have to stay
Because I promised I would be here for you, and I do what I say
And I'll keep my word until your dying day
But please understand that I appreciate my friends
And all the love I get, and all you've done for me
But when I feel sad, you are the first things I forget
As the dark soon consumes my memories
I'm sorry!

Senses Betray
03:51
|
|

So many years, so why can't I talk about it now?
So many fears I can't allow myself to show
I'm plugging my ears, so why do I hear your voice aloud
Like you're sitting here with me somehow, when I'm alone
You know I'll never get to feel the warmth of love again
You showed me what it was but then you threw it all away
I wish you'd never loved me, I wish you'd never cared
I wish you'd never hugged me, I wish you'd left me there
I'm closing my eyes, so why do I see you next to me?
And why do I taste your lips, you see I can't escape
From all of the lies- Can't come to my senses as I please
Cause all of my senses betray me, it's just too late
You know I'll never get to feel the warmth of love again
You showed me what it was but then you took it all away
I wish you'd never loved me, I wish you'd never cared
I wish you'd never hugged me, I wish you'd left me there
I might forget about the times we spent, and what they meant and
Someday I maybe will move on
At least I thought I could, and maybe one day that was true, but
Then I went and wrote this stupid song
I wish you'd never loved me, I wish you'd never cared
I wish you'd never hugged me, I wish you'd left me there
I wish you'd never loved me, I wish you'd never cared
I wish you'd never touched me, I wish you'd left me there

Serial Love
03:46
|
|
||
It all started with a mystery on the night you blew a kiss to me.
From across the room my misery would soon be replaced with disbelief
Then I was glowing, my heart was exploding
Felt like I was floating, I could blow away, hey hey hey hey
I never wanted you to turn around again
The world around me blurred and froze and then
I said that I forgot about my friends, they left without me
And so you offered me a ride
As you drove me home we talked about all the things we couldn't live without
When you stopped the car I could not get out as my mind was filled with fear and doubt
Until you kissed me, worries stopped existing
I could not resist the, urge to bring you in in in in in
I never wanted you to leave my side again
Just take my hand and be my bride and then
Forget about your family and your friends- it's all about me
And so I locked you up that night
Please understand that this was how it had to be
I drove your car into the lake one night so now you're safe with me
And that's okay cause all the things you said you could not live without
Are locked inside my basement with you, there's no need to scream or shout
Cause I'll be here right by your side until the day you have to die
Oh baby hit me, so I know you're still with me - I love you
Baby, seems like you might hate me
Haven't said much lately, or even drawn a breath
I never wanted you to run away again
Forgot to mention food and water when
You told me all the things you needed can you please forgive me
I hope that we can still be friends until the end
If you get lonely I will get your friends
And family then we can both begin our lives together
No one will hear from us again

She Makes Me High
03:51
|
|
||
Once upon a time there was a girl who nearly made me lose my mind
She was one of a kind, she truly was sublime, oh yeah
Now beauty such as this should not exist, you know it ought to be a crime
She makes me high- she truly blows my mind, oh yeah
Cause she is like a drug, and I just can not get enough
And now I have withdrawn from everything and everyone
Cause she is all I need, oh god I hope she sticks around
Cause when she leaves my world comes crashing down
And once you've had a taste you can't escape, you'll never be the same again
You can't be friends, at best you can pretend, oh no
And there's no hope for me but hopefully this isn't how the story ends
For us to win, we have to score again. Oh, no
Cause she is like a drug, and I just can not get enough
And now I have withdrawn from everything and everyone
Cause she is all I need, oh god I hope she sticks around
Cause when she leaves my world comes crashing down
Hiding from the sun is so much fun
Have we become curmudgeons?
Reclusive misanthropes on the run.
What can be done?
Nothing lasts forever, like the weather, things were bound to finally change
She ran away, I text her every day. Oh yeah
I'm not feeling well, I fell like Hell would be a better place to stay
My body aches, and she's the only thing I crave, YEAHHH!
Cause she was like a drug, and I just could not get enough
And I seem to have lost all of the things I used to love
Cause she was all I needed, god I wish she'd stuck around
But now she's gone and my world's crashing down
Whoah oh oh, it's crashing down
Whoa oh oh, it's crashing down
Whoa oh oh, it's crashing down
Whoa oh oh, it's crashing down

Scene Of The Crime
04:43
|
|
||
I lie when I pretend that I can live without you
It doesn't really matter what I say or do
Cause all the winding roads will lead back to you
So please be kind, and please rewind to the better days
To back before I said and did those stupid things
That time won't seem to wash away
And I wanted you to know that I belong to you
And you need to know that I can barely breathe
So baby, please love me responsibly
My tender heart can bleed so easily
So baby, please love me responsibly
I think of you constantly, and I need your honesty
Is there something wrong with me?
I waste my time, pretending I could ever get sleep
Cause every time I do I just have a dream,
and you're lying next to me
With open eyes, I realize it wasn't what it seemed
And you're so far away from me, and I feel sad
And I just want to scream
And I wanted you to know my heart beats on for you
And to thank you so for visiting my dream
So baby, please love me responsibly
My tender heart can bleed so easily
So baby, please love me responsibly
I think of you constantly, and I need your honesty
Is there something wrong with me?
So aimlessly I roam the streets in search of one who can complete
me like you did, but none will do, and so I circle back to you
And when we ended, nothing felt quite right, oh no
Now I return to the scene of the crime, oh no!
So baby, please love me responsibly
My tender heart can bleed so easily
So baby, please love me responsibly
I think of you constantly, and I need your honesty
Is there something wrong with me?

Return
03:22
|
|
||
I must want to lose my mind
Cause this happens every time
I can't walk in a straight line
Cause with love I am totally blind
Maybe I should get up
And speak my mind for once
But lately I can't even stand up
Cause I just keep on falling in love
If you return, and we take it slow
It just doesn't matter where we go
We belong together baby
This I've always known
Well maybe I spoke to soon
Cause your love's like a harpoon
I bleed out as I swoon
And I keep getting pulled back to you
When I return, and we take it slow
It just doesn't matter where we go
Cause we're perfect together, baby
This I've always know
Cause when you return, and we take it slow
It just doesn't matter where we go
Cause when we're together, baby
We will always glow
This addiction lacks conviction
Keeps me home with all these symptoms
So how am I to escape?
Well I practice what I preach
A cactus-covered beach
I'd cross with my bare feet
For a chance to get back in your sheets (you're so sweet)
When I return, and we take it slow
It just doesn't matter where we go
Cause we're perfect together, baby
This I've always known
Cause when I return, and we'll take it slow
It just doesn't matter where we go
As long as you're with me, baby
I will always glow

Just Like You
04:49
|
|
||
Well it seemed to me that things were happy as things can be
So I just can't understand just why you had to go
but you packed your bags and left a note by the door
Baby, what for?
Now it seems as though I just do not have a thing to show
For all I've lost, and I can't believe it's come to this
So I grit my teeth and shake my fist at the sky
Screaming out "Why?!"
Until I find another girl who's just like you
But she'll be prettier and always speak the truth
She'll be so warm and sweet, and kind to me
So I guess she really won't be much like you
Well it seems that I will make it through, gonna need some time
To pack and move, but it's hard to leave anything behind
When my sheets and clothes and things remind me of you
What will I do?
Until I find another girl who's just like you
And she'll be prettier and always speak the truth
She'll be so warm and sweet, and kind to me
So I guess she really won't be much like you
I'll burn my sheets, and everything, until there's nothing
left and she, is nothing but a distant memory!
It seems to me that things are back to how things should be
And I'm so happy to spend my time with someone who
Understands the tortures I've been through and appreciates
the things I do- Never would have found her without you- I've finally
Found another girl who's not like you
And she's so beautiful and always speaks the truth
And she's so warm and sweet, and takes care of me
So I guess she really isn't much like you
Oh no!
Well I guess she really isn't much like you!

Save Me
03:20
|
|
||
What's your name? Where have you been?
May I kiss your cheek, or hold your hand?
Oh where are priorities when you need them?
Disbelief settles in. My lips won't speak- not again...
Oh why, is our biology so misleading?
Save me from all the lies and pain
Oh won't you save me from me?
Kiss your feet, bow my head
You remind me that I'm not dead
Oh where have you been all my life till this evening?
Save me from all the lies and shame
Oh can't you save me from me?
Had to abandon all reason
Although that is treason
I know that you're leavin' today. Hey
Walked away, head in hands
I'll sleep all day until it mends
Oh why were your apologies so deceiving?
Save me from all the lies and shame
Oh can't you save me from me?
Save me, please save... please save me from me...

Entropy
02:53
|
|
||
Sometimes I can't figure out just what I'm looking for
The sign's so bright this time, it just can't be ignored
I'm lost without you, but I doubt you'd ever see
That you mean everything to me
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, help me see help me see
You're the light, to my dark entropy
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, set me free, set me free
I'm locked away, and you hold all the keys
Sometimes I can't figure out what I'm supposed to say
Hello my love will you please marry me someday
Won't sound quite right, I think I might just disappear
A nervous wreck drowning in fear
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, help me speak, help me speak
When I'm lost, you're the words that I seek
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, help me breathe, help me breathe
When I drown, you're the air that I need
Walk away and I'll fall on my knees but I shall crawl
Back to your side where I stand taller than the trees
oh oh oh, oh oh oh, help me see help me see
You're the starts in the skies over me
oh oh oh, oh oh oh, help me please, help me please
You're the source of my causality
You're the sky, you're the earth, you're the seas
You're the warmth, you're the sun, you're the breeze

Parallels
03:45
|
|
||
We fit together like a spider and its prey
I know she'll get me as I'm struggling to get away
My life seems so complete till she sucks it out of me
The web's so tangled now I know I'll never get away
She's a parallel, and we're not faring well
She's a parallel to me
We're like two magnets with the same polarity
I'd move in closer but it's pushing her away from me
She seems at arm's length when she's right next to me
And she's attracted to exactly what she doesn't need
She's a parallel, and we're not faring well
Cause she's a parallel to me
And she's a parallel, and she's not faring well
And she's a parallel to me
It's like I'm copper and she's pure electricity
We get together and the sparks fly endlessly
When we reach our extremes, and she burns a hole through me
She keeps on going even knowing that she's killing me
She's a parallel, and we're not faring well
She's a parallel to me
And she's a parallel (Always waiting)
We're not faring well (There's no mistaking)
She's a parallel to me (She's not for me)

What I've Been Through
03:41
|
|
||
Love is a zombie- when I think it's dead, it's back to haunt me
gets inside my head and feeds- it changes me
Lost in the moment and I'm so afraid, before I know it now my
Soul's escaped from me- it's hers to keep..
I sing woooo, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, what can I do?
They say that I should get away from this, but I'm addicted
to the grave and it's too late- there's no escape
I'd rather take abuse with no defense, than face rejection
laced with loneliness and grief, so let me bleed
And sing woooo, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, what can I do?
To make you change your mind?
To make you change your ways?
I'd do it all myself, it doesn't matter what it takes!
So maybe I'm in love, or maybe I'm insane
I can't tell anymore, I'll just sit back, relax,
And sing woooo, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, cause they don't know what I've been through
with you, what can I do?

Our Separate Ways
03:15
|
|
||
So many place that I'd really like to go
So many faces that I really wanna know
But when I really start to think about it
My head starts shaking and I start to doubt it
How could I ever really leave this place alone
And face this on my own
When we could start again and go right back to how things used to be
Before we did the things that made us turn and go our separate ways
So many questions that I'd really love to ask
Like if we do this is it even gonna last?
But when I really start to think about it
My head starts shaking and I scream and shout it
How could I ever really leave this place alone
And face this on my own
When we could start again and go right back to how things used to be
Before we did the things that made us grow apart, oh baby
When we could start again and go right back to how things used to be
Before we did the things that made us turn and go our separate ways
But when I really start to think about it
My head starts spinning and I scream and shout it
How could I ever really leave this place alone
And face this on my own
When we could start again and go right back to how things used to be
Before I did the things that made me break your heart, oh baby
We can start again, let's go right back to how things used to be
Before we did the things that made us turn and go our separate ways

Remember When
04:37
|
|
||
It's all so clear, yet I'm confused
It's in the air, it's on the news
All that I want- all I could choose
Could not compare to thoughts of you
When we were friends- It never ends
Your memories, they penetrate
They're keeping me from sleeping
Though I'm half-awake
Believe you me, on my dying day
I will still remember how we used to play all day
I'm always here, my mind's astray
My thoughts are clear, I can't complain
Pretend you're near... to fool my brain
Your memory's all that remains
Of when we were friends- it never ends
So vividly your words remain
And keep me from believing
that you've gone away
My thoughts exposed- put on display
Are keeping me from breathing now I can't escape
There's no way
|

I spent the night staring out of the window
Spent the night with the cool winter air
Spent the night in the sheets, kept the stars within reach
Cause I know that you're out there somewhere
I drove all night through the streets of the city
Drove all night without worry or care
Drove all night through the streets, kept the stars within reach
Cause I know that you're out there somewhere
Looking for me, guided by the stars
Searching for me, oh girl, you can't be that far
Away from me, hmmmmm, hmmmmm
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh
I walked all night to a beach near the ocean
Walked all night through the cool, misty air
Walked all night on the beach, kept the stars within reach
Cause I know that you're out there somewhere
Looking for me, guided by the stars
Searching for me, oh girl, you can't be that far
Away from me, hmmmmm, hmmmmm
Oooh oooh, oooh oooh
Baby we belong together like the waves and sunny weather every day
Let's run away
We'll live our lives on the beach near the ocean
Live our lives without worry or care
Live our lives on the beach, with the sand at our feet
And the stars are all ours now to share-
Just you and me, guided by the stars
Perfect and free- I know you'll never go far
Away from me
I will never be the same now that I know
That true love can never fade and you'll never go
I will never be the same now that I know
That true love can never fade and you'll never go
I will never be the same now that I know
That true love can never fade and you'll never go
Away from me, away from me, away from me

Oh So Perfect
03:14
|
|
||
Just when I think she's out of reach
She turns and looks right back at me
And runs her fingers through her hair
And makes eye-contact with me
The sun, the rain, the joy, the pain
The things that used to matter
Just fade away- to shades of gray
If I could only have her!
I want you out of my head, in my bed
You were oh so perfect
There's nothing left to be said, in the end
You were oh so worth it
Now as I stare at earth from space
Forgot my friends and all my things
Everything I am belongs to you
Please tell me what can I do?
The sun, the rain, the joy, the pain
The things that seemed like issues
Just fade away, to shades of gray
Each time I get to kiss you
I want you out of my head, in my bed
You were oh so perfect
There's nothing left to be said, in the end
You were oh so worth it
Now and then, your photographs will take me back to when
we had such simple hopes and fantasies
I breathe you in, your scent will always bring be back again
and now you're frozen in my memories
I want you out of my head, in my bed
You were oh so perfect
There's nothing left to be said, in the end
You were oh so worth it
You were oh so perfect
You were oh so perfect

Alone With You
02:53
|
|

It feels like magic, but it's tragic what you do to me
I'm so attached, you're like a magnet that's been glued to me
You drive me crazy baby and you're so amazing maybe
you were sent to save me, hey we oughtta go just take me back
Home with you
I really wanna be alone with you
There's nothing else that I wanna do, it's true
Oh baby take me back home with you
I feel so broken, will you open up your heart to me
There's no emotion till you're close and you're a part of me
You drive me crazy baby and you're so amazing maybe
you were sent to save me, hey we oughtta go just take me back
Home with you
I really wanna be alone with you
There's nothing else that I wanna do, it's true
Oh baby take me back home with you
She must be plotting my defeat
She's always got her eyes on me
She's over educated, but she's under-medicated
She's still the only one for me
Oh baby take me back home with you
I really wanna be alone with you
There's nothing else that I wanna do, it's true
Oh baby take me back home with you
Oh baby take me back home with you
I really wanna be alone with you
There's nothing else that I'd rather do, it's true
Oh baby take me back home with you

Ignorance Is Priss
03:44
|
|
||
My mirror's covered up with a picture of my face
So there's nothing to reflect upon, and I can never age
If ignorance is bliss, well then I should be okay
Cause I've finally learned to feel again...
but all I feel is so much pain
I'll never love again, I'm so insane
Please tell me what went wrong
Apologies aren't real, so I'm sorry that I tried
And weeping never helped a thing, so maybe I should cry
If ignorance is bliss, well then I should be okay
Cause I've finally learned to feel again
but all I feel is so much pain
I'll never love again I'm so insane
When no one understands you can't complain
And though I've tried so hard I can't explain
Just what is going on
They say that time will heal, and yet everybody dies
While all the time left in the world just seems to pass us by
If ignorance is bliss, well then I should be okay
Cause I've finally learned to feel again
but all I feel is so much pain
I'll never love again I'm so insane
When no one understands you can't complain
And though I've tried so hard I can't explain
Just what is going on

Love Is The Cancer
03:42

Your love is radiation cause it makes me glow
Then I get hot and shaky as I lose control
And I can't figure out what to do
Cause I just keep on burning for you ooh ooh
I love you just the you were
You're all I'd ask for in a girl
ooh ooh ooh ooh
Our distance is a cancer. As it starts to grow
I start to feel so weak the further that you go
When it seems like you're out of my reach
Might as well just admit my defeat
I love you just the way you were
You're all I'd ask for in a girl
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'd go so far, baby, to be where you are
Together we will beat the odds!
Your love is like the music on your stereo
It lifts you up, it soothes, or makes you lose control
Put your favorite song on repeat
And use that to get back on your feet
I love you just the way you were
You're all I'd ask for in a girl
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
(You're all I need)
I love you just the way you were
(You're all I need)
You're all I'd ask for in a girl
(I'm on my knees)
Oh oh oh oh
(You're all I need)
Oh oh oh oh
You're all I need

You close the door and I'll pretend to walk away
Gets your attention- it's a game we like to play
I'll tell you that I love you each and every day
I'll even listen to you when you have something you wanna say
But I don't have much to give you, my love
But when you're down
Know that you're all I'm thinkin' of
And turn around- I'll be there
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I'll shrug it off if you get mad and turn away
Cause you're so cute when you get angry anyway
Nobody's perfect and we prove it every day
Let's go outside and watch the stars come out and wish it all away
because I don't have much to give you, my love
but when you're down
Know that you're all I'm thinkin' of
Turn around- I'll be there
If twenty years from now we're stranded in the rain
Just hold me closer- we'll romanticize the pain
The people driving by will point and call us names
And that's okay, it's who we are- we like to go against the grain
And though I don't have much to give you, my love
When you're down
We'll watch the autumn leaves above- floating down
Enchanted by the breeze they just dance around
Such perfect memories for us all around
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

American Dream
02:22
|
|
||
When I am all yours and you are all mine
Nothing can stop true love of this kind
If I become deaf, and you become blind
I'll read your lips as you read my mind
Oh your love has got a hold on me
But I can't let it show
Cause you might try to set me free
And I won't let you go
With our white picket fence and our fancy machines
We're living in the American dream
The sky is so blue, the grass is so green
But something's amiss, things just aren't as they seem
Oh the wool was pulled right off of me
But I can't let it show
Cause they might try to bury me
And I won't let it go
As the world ends we'll go out to play
And we'll just pretend it's a beautiful day
With nothing to lose, no reason to pray
I'll kiss your lips as it all blows away
Oh your love has got a hold of me
But I can't let it show
Cause I have never felt so free
And I won't let you go
The world is falling down on me
But I won't let it show
Cause we have never been so free
And I won't let you go
I won't let you go
I won't let you go

Death By Candlelight
02:46
|
|
||
Even when I asked you out, I could not believe you were next to me
Couldn't help but shout it out, I had finally found my destiny
And you held me tight, and I knew right then it would be alright
Nothing matters when set to candlelight
Thus began our romantic history
And then soon we'd figure out that we won't work out quite so perfectly
And we'll even scream and shout, it seems sad but love is so perplexing
And our love is true, so I'll hold it in and I'll stick with you
Nothing matters when you've been feeling blue
Thus began our romantic mystery
I can't escape the things you say to me
You contemplate whether you'll stay or leave
I cannot restrain this love for you
Maybe next I'll choke you out, leave a gasoline puddle next to you
Leave the candles burning out, as I cuddle up right there next to you
And I'll hold you tight cause I love you so and I'll make things right
I can't let you go- death by candlelight is the
only way to escape this misery

Another Verse
03:17
|
|
||
Skin as soft as rice paper, eyes as blue as light sabers
What can I do? It's all for you
Food and sleep are optional- you're all I need, you're optimal
What can I do? It's all for you
Feeling great- it's not too late
I'm jealous, but I'll celebrate
Cause even if you said to me that this is just a fantasy
that's in my head- it's not to me, cause this is my reality, oh yeah
I'll sick to you like fly paper, and follow you from death to birth
But in reverse.- It's all for you
And even when it's all over, I will write another verse to let you know
it was all for you
Feeling great- it's not too late
I'm jealous, but I'll celebrate
Cause even if you said to me that this is just a fantasy
that's in my head- it's not to me, cause this is my reality, oh yeah
And even when it's all over, I will write another verse to let you know
it was all for you
Feeling great- it's not too late
I'm jealous, but I'll celebrate
Cause even if you said to me that this is just a fantasy
that's in my head-I won't agree- cause this is my reality, oh yeah

La-De-Da

We're just about out of time
Is what she explained to me
She asked me to close my eyes
And then she sang to me:
La de da, hey hey
Such a pretty summer day
And I'm so glad that I could spend it here with you
La de day hey hey
Never let these memories fade
Just hold my hand and I'll lay right here with you
When summer came to an end
It happened so peacefully
She said that she had to go
And then she sang to me:
La de da hey hey
Now I have to go my way
But I'll be back and spend next summer here with you
La de da hey hey
Everything will be okay
Just close your eyes and I'll be right there waiting for you
La de day hey hey
Now I have to go my way
But I'll be back and spend next summer here with you
La de da hey hey
Everything will be okay
Just close your eyes and I'll be right there waiting for you
I never saw her again
I waited so patiently
Now when I'm here all alone
I close my eyes and sing
La de da hey hey
Such a pretty summer day
And I'm so glad that I just spent it here with you
La de da hey hey
I'm so sad you've gone away
When you come back I'll be waiting here for you

Take It From Me
04:03
|
|
||
Well I never thought about the different kinds of games
All I saw was black and white and maybe shades of gray
So I never though it through, now I'm here alone with you
Never knew my breath could slip away
But you take it from me (I've never played a game like this before
Take it from me (don't know if I can take this anymore)
Take it from me (I've got myself to blame)
Take it from me (I can't control the game because you take it from me)
Well I never thought about the saddest kinds of moods
Now I can't see black or white, just different shades of blue
Moving on is giving in, but my soul is wearing thin
Thought I'd have a life to hold onto
But you take it from me (I've never met a girl like you before)
Take it from me (Don't know if I can take this anymore)
Take it from me (I've got myself to blame)
Take it from me (I drive myself insane)
So just take it from me
Now that we've had the chance to think about our past at last and we
Can dance with our romance in tact, that's how I know we're gonna be
Together side by side, I'm part of you, you're part of me and I
Don't need a heart that beats, it's yours to keep, so just take it from me
Take it from me
Now we play along in our Symphony of the Night
While our Final Fantasy provides our guiding light
And we Link it to the Past, seeing through Majora's Mask
Memories to which I hold on tight
Because you take it from me (I've never met a girl like you before)
Take it from me( Don't know if I can take this anymore)
Take it from me (I've got myself to blame)
Take it from me (I'm lost inside your game, I can't explain what's happening)
Take it from me (Afraid you're gonna leave)
Take it from me (This can't be happening)
Take it from me (Cause all that's left of me)
(You're gonna take it from me)

In My Arms
03:14
|
|

Now and then I pretend that you and I might be friends
When in reality love has grabbed hold of me
Wish I could just find a way
To walk up to you and say, hey yay yay
I just met you- but I need to hold you
In my arms all night and day
I confess that I'm a mess since the first time we met
Fate's divine plans align cause here I am by your side
Wish I could just find a way
To walk up to you and say, hey yay yay
I just met you- but I need to hold you
In my arms all night and day, night and day, hey yay yay
I opened up my mouth to say the words I practiced every day
But what came out was not the same, I'm so in love
But what I didn't realize was when I looked into your eyes
I'd be completely paralyzed and so in love
Wish I could just find a way
To walk up to you and say, hey yay yay
I just met you- but I need to hold you
In my arms all night and day
In my arms all night and day
In my arms all night and day

Hard To Explain
03:19
|
|

You know how you feel sometimes when you're walking outside
And the sun on your face makes you feel so alive
But you can't quite explain why you're buried alive by your pain
Then maybe you feel just like you're on top of the world
Like the time that you first met the guy or the girl
Of your dreams but it seems that they're taken now what can you say?
You just can't turn away
Then maybe you feel so down like you're ready to cry
With a smile on your face, but a tear in your eye
And it feels like you won't but you know that you're gonna survive
You're not moving on this time, you'll be staying behind
Cause you know in your heart that they're one of a kind
Sometimes fate can be great if you know that they're worth your time
You grit your teeth and try
It's hard to explain what's on your mind
What's keepin' you down, what's keeping you alive
They don't understand, they probably don't care
They don't even notice if you're even there
But somehow they're still right by your side
Grit your teeth and try
Then later you feel let down and you're ready to go
Like you're driving to work, but you're stuck in the snow
So it feels like the harder you work then the harder you'll cry
Then somehow it feels just like you've been drifting apart
Like the front of the line moves you back to the start
Like a dream, you can run, you can scream but you just can't hide
You wanna turn that wheel and slide
It's hard to explain what's on your mind
What's keepin' you down, what's keeping you alive
They don't understand, they probably don't care
They don't even notice the clothes that you wear
But somehow they're still right by your side
(It's hard to explain what's on your mind)
I just can't explain what's on my mind
(It's hard to explain what's on your mind)
What I once was is trapped inside
(It's hard to explain what's on your mind)
I can't escape so I'll just hide
(It's hard to explain what's on your mind)
My youthful innocence has died

Young And Alone
03:44
|
|

When I was just a boy there was this girl who lived down the street
I'd walk her home from school, she'd hold my hand, we were so happy
We'd stick together, she was perfect, someday we'd be married
But then that moving truck just took her from me!
Then we were far away, she's the one I adored
She was just within reach, but she's not anymore
So we said our goodbyes and she hung up the phone
We were sad, and we cried, we were young and alone
Then when I was a teen, I met this girl with golden blond hair
I'd pick her flowers, give her candy, follow her everywhere
She was in love, she was just perfect, but something was missing
She just was not that girl from my memories
So I was far away, though I was in her arms
Never could dedicate, didn't mean any harm
So we said our goodbyes, and I hung up the phone
We were sad, and we cried, we were young and alone
One day on FaceBook, "People You May Know"
She just appeared, I had to go
And take a peek at her new life
She looked so happy as a wife
This lucky guy would never know
About that boy from years ago
Who can't move on, who won't let go
Request was sent, but she said no!
Now that I'm all grown up, the smoke has cleared, I have my own place
My friends have all moved on, they're married with a smile on their face
I'm still that boy who lived next door, and I'm still stuck on that girl
I stay cooped up inside, and hide from this world
Because I'd feel so bad if I hurt anyone
And I feel insincere, I don't have any fun
So I said my goodbyes, and I turned off my phone
See what fate has in store, till I'm old and alone

Might As Well Be True
03:28
|
|

I smile and nod my head to try to hide the truth
You're unbelievable but I believe in you
You told me, you're lonely- I would die for you
I hope you never feel the pain I hide inside from you
My mind is gone- it's followed you
You belong with me and I belong to you
Pain is but a distant memory
Locked within this very melody I wrote for you
Behind expression lies the avenues of truth
Emotion's trivial- I simply have to choose
Believe me- I'm leaving- You would say to me
I want to make you feel the pain I hide inside of me
My mind is gone- it's followed you
You moved on and left me locked in solitude
Pain was once a distant memory
My facade is crashing down on me since I lost you
Belief is nothing but opinion wed to faith
But then what happens when they start to separate?
Believe me- Deceive me- She would beg of me
I know you'll never feel the pain that's lost inside of me
My mind is gone- it's followed you
You moved on and left me locked in solitude
Pain was once a distant memory
My facade is crashing down on me since I lost you

Alaina

I met you on that wedding day
I didn't know quite what I should say
I asked around and got your name
That friend request came that same day
Alaina don't run from me
I am here, I'm your friend, have fun with me
Oh Alaina don't go to sleep
Message me all night long and tell me everything
And then you found me at the show
Talked for a while, but I didn't know
If I should ask you on a date
Then we both went our separate ways
Alaina don't run from me
I am here, I'm your friend, have fun with me
Oh Alaina don't go to sleep
Message me all night long and tell me everything
And we've both got nothing to prove, oh no
Cause we've both got nothing to lose, at all
Sometimes I feel lonely and sad, oh no
When you're around it's not so bad, oh yeah!
Alaina don't run from me
I am here, I'm your friend, have fun with me
Oh Alaina don't fall asleep
Message me all night long and tell me everything
Alaina don't run from me
I am here, I'm your friend, have fun with me
Oh Alaina don't go to sleep
Message me we can talk about anything
(everything, everythng, everything, anything)

You told me only what you wanted me to know and I understood
You knew I would
I told you everything that you wanted to know oh oh oh
But if I look in your eyes will I see through all of your lies
All I know is what you tell me, so
Is there nothing I can say that would make you want to stay any longer?
Is there any reason why you can't look me in the eye as you drive away?
You know you've got me when you turn to walk away and I follow you
What can I do
I know you love me when you call me every day, oh oh oh
But when you look up and smile, then I know it's all worthwhile
All I hope is that you love me, so...
Is there nothing I can say that would make you want to stay any longer?
Is there any reason why you can't look me in the eye as you drive away?
Is there nothing I can say that would make you want to stay any longer?
Is there any reason why when you leave I wanna die oh so badly?
Yeah
And I do not approve of this because I'm not alone with you.
Is there nothing I can say that would make you want to stay any longer?
Is there any reason why you can't look me in the eye as you drive away?
Is there nothing I can say that would make you want to stay any longer?
Is there any reason why when you leave I wanna die oh so badly?
I wanna die

Forget the time
Commit the crime
It's not about the reasons
It's about the rhyme
You're in my head
Until I'm dead
I'd like to make you mine
And die with no regrets
Oh lazy gods above
Pretend you care for once
Take back this gift you gave me
And just save your son
Remember when
We used to grin
Now I just slap a smile on
Fake it and pretend
Oh lazy gods above
Pretend you're there for once
Take back this gift you gave me
And just save your son
Hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm
Hmm hmm hmm hmmm
Forget the time
Commit the crime
It's not about the reasons
It's about the rhyme
Oh lazy gods above
Pretend you care for once
Take back this gift you gave me
And just save your son
Just save your song
Take back this gift you gave me
And just save your son

Daniel Eischeid Edmond, Oklahoma
Nirvana, Weezer, Ozma influenced, melodic, power pop-rock music. Strong melodies, hooks, and good harmony-driven rock. My personal acoustic demos I record on the spot, to give to my band (Starry Skies) to work up drum and bass and guitar tracks for. Some make it to our band's lineup, some don't. They sound very different when finished. Now, full band (solo) demos as well! Please enjoy. ... more
