But For Now
October 22, 2010

I still remember that first time
It wasn't too cold outside
We were just so excited
It was the best night
I remember it clearly
When the screaming came
We looked at each other and something changed
The night it felt so fun
It went by way too fast
And now the buildings gone
But the memory remains.

All the memories are clear to me
Even if you can't remember them the same
I know we'll have some more one day
But for now it has to change.

I still remember those moments
When we'd dance outisde
It was the summer time and no one was around
I remember all the things we'd try
It was our summer of 1966
And we figured it all out
And everyone said friends cant last
Past high school
But everything can work the right way if you want it to
I should know.

All the memories are clear to me
Even if you can't remember them the same
I know we'll have some more one day
But for now it has to change.

I fought dragons with you
Singing at the top of our lungs
Writing our lives away.

We'll stop right here
I;m not sure how it ends
But I'll make a promise
If you promise me this
Time will keep going
More memories to come
One day... wait, it'll never go away
Don't ever leave this place
Don't ever say goodbye

All the memories are clear to me
Even if you can't remember them the same
I know we'll have some more one day
But for now it has to change
Long live all the ice cream we ate
And all the progress that was gained
And when the dark cloud went away
It's always remembered.
Dark Outside Tonight
October 22, 2010

The look on your face takes me back to that last day
Walking side by side
Pouring rain is alright
We looked back and forth between each other
We knew we never could discover
But you'd think you had run away.

Why did you do that to me?
Why did you scare me so late at night?

It's dark outside tonight and the shadows scare me in fright
I guess you're not who I thought you were
Look in the mirror at yourself
What reflection stares back at you?
Is it who you really are or the one you made up just to show me?
What are you doing to yourself an how did you become so scary?

You walked away with no words to say
But that's not much like you
I hope you don't think thats okay
You can't tell me its how it should be
How is that any fair?
I'm so frustrated.

Why did you do that to me?
Why did you scare me so late at night?

It's dark outside tonight and the shadows scare me in fright
I guess you're not who I thought you were
Look in the mirror at yourself
What reflection stares back at you?
Is it who you really are or the one you made up just to show me?
What are you doing to yourself an how did you become so scary?

I should go
You're so mean
I'm alone
And you have no clue.

It's dark outside tonight and the shadows scare me in fright
I guess you're not who I thought you were
Look in the mirror at yourself
What reflection stares back at you?
Is it who you really are or the one you made up just to show me?
What are you doing to yourself an how did you become so scary?
Strange & Lonely All the Time
October 22, 2010

Think of December, it'll keep me going
I miss you, I think its worth knowing
I know theres nothing I can do
So I think of the days that pass by
I try my best not to break down and cry
So I look up at the bright blue sky.

I promised to myself I wouldn't think about it at all
And I know that only in time

I will lose everything, inside if you're wondering
But I'll try not to let it show on the outside
And I feel strange and lonely all the time
The summer sun, the winter snow, the rain in spring or the falling leaves wont let me show what I really mean
And I feel strange and lonely all the time.

The time goes fast but the seconds tick slowly
The beats strong but the rhythms weak
And I know that in my mind its not problem at all
Drawing on a driveway with chalk all the time
Writing down everything we felt at the time
If only everything was that easy again.

And then reality hit us like a ton of ice and everything spun out of line
I'll give you all my love now if somehow we could stop time.

I will lose everything, inside if you're wondering
But I'll try not to let it show on the outside
And I feel strange and lonely all the time
The summer sun, the winter snow, the rain in spring or the falling leaves wont let me show what I really mean
And I feel strange and lonely all the time.

I miss your talks late at night
Your hyperness
Your way to make everyone smile
You light up the darkest room in sight on a dark night.

Maybe I'm unrealistic
Or maybe just going ballistic
But I know you're where you're meant to be
Even though I know how much I cry at night
I can't call you back this time.

I will lose everything, inside if you're wondering
But I'll try not to let it show on the outside
And I feel strange and lonely all the time
The summer sun, the winter snow, the rain in spring or the falling leaves wont let me show what I really mean
And I feel strange and lonely all the time.

Everything Thrown At Me
October 8, 2010

When I was little I'd sit in the grass and have no worries
As I grew older I knew I'd have to forget all this
Now I know better and I try to relax and calm myself
I can remember the day I broke and where it lead.

Now I know how to enjoy
Everything thrown at me.

One day I cursed at myself and it didn't change a thing
I looked in the mirror and I hopped it wouldn't last
My mind's always been like this and told me things that weren't true
I hope it changes one day because it's something I can't control like this.

Now I know how to enjoy
Everything thrown at me.

I'm not at all what I appear to be
And I know that's cliche
But what you know and I know are different
I hope you can help me come clean.

Now I know how to enjoy
Everything thrown at me.
Creativity
September 7, 2010

So often spoke out of turn
I'm not conforming
To turn and walk away is a struggle once more
I hope with all the deepest hopes it will work out
Concerned I'm not, but I don't need the stress I'm sure.

Don't point your finger at me and tell me it's all my fault
Your as much to blame for not giving me creativity
But I can't go on anymore
I hope this will settle the score.

As time goes by it wont change me
There needs to be something said by someone other then me
Your foolish ways wont fool me any longer
I'm more free then you'll ever know.

Don't point your finger at me and tell me it's all my fault
Your as much to blame for not giving me creativity
But I can't go on anymore
I hope this will settle the score.
It Never Was
September 7, 2010

I'm searching
You're searching to tell me it's not right
I felt low
You pushed me and it all aside.

You once told me it's not meant to be
You gave me options and told me to see.

It can't be this way
I'll lose it all today
The feelings not right
It never was.

If you'd stop pushing
I'd start giving
Can't you see my side?

Can't you see that
It's all off track
It's all deep inside.

You told me it'd be okay
I didn't believe you yesterday
And not today.

It can't be this way
I'll lose it all today
The feelings not right
It never was.

I know there's no such thing as regrets
But I feel thrown to the side
Can it be worked out anyways?

It can't be this way
I'll lose it all today
The feelings not right
It never was.
Hope You Fall
June 29, 2010

It's not crazy not to realize
The hurt and pain that's inside
I thought you'd only see in time
It's crazy, crazy
I'd do anything for you
I guess it's wrong of me to try
So why don't you tell me
How it's all supposed to be
You can't just keep jerking me
Around it's crazy
One day you'll see that
I'm stronger then you.

If this was the last time
I'd ever talk
I'd use it to walk right up to you
And tell you what's really on my mind
I wouldn't spare anything thing time
I'd tell you where to go, and hope you fall.

I don't know what's with your attitude
Or why you think that you're so cool
I think you need to be checked into reality
I'm about to let everyone know the way you really are.

If this was the last time
I'd ever talk
I'd use it to walk right up to you
And tell you what's really on my mind
I wouldn't spare anything thing time
I'd tell you where to go, and hope you fall.

There's one thing I thought you ought to know
And it's from the bottom of my soul
I think you should let everyone know
That you are a poser of who you should be.

If this was the last time
I'd ever talk
I'd use it to walk right up to you
And tell you what's really on my mind
I wouldn't spare anything thing time
I'd tell you where to go, and hope you fall.
