hey everybody....i am gonna be posting some lyrics/poems on here that i have written. dont freak out, some of these songs dont necessarily have anything to do with my life. so just look at them as music. hope you all like!!
"It's Time to Come Home"
If I had another chance to prove that I care
I would cuddle with her and play with her hair
I would kiss her on the lips
And hold her by her hips
And whisper in her ear "I love you, beautiful."
I would hold her close to me
Tell her she is lovely
let her know that I care
I would show her off everywhere
Look her in the eyes and say nothing
Speechless. Breathless.
Girl, I love you. it's time to come home
I make mistakes, but loving you isn't one of them
We belong together, you know that's true.
I love you.
"It Will All End Right"
Often times I know we fight
But it will all end right
Holding you tightly in my grip
Baby never will I let you slip
I will never let you go
I love you more than you'll ever know
Yeah, everything will end right, baby
I'll be your man, you'll be my lady
In the end, all will be better
Girl, it will be the best ever
I promise you, it will all end right
It will all end right, yeah, it will all end right
I'll show you the world, I'll give you the time of your life
You know someday we're gonna marry, me the husband, you the wife
But hey, that's the way it's meant to be
Forever darling, you and me
Just us
Forever baby, just us.
It will all end right.
"The Tears Roll Down"
I'm sick of this world, so dark with pain
I don't know how much more I can take
The tears, they continue to roll down my face
I'm stuck in this damn wretched place
Back and forth I slowly pace
Still, the tears roll down my face
God, how much more must I take?
How many smiles must I fake?
The warm tears, they roll down my face
In this lonely place
This wretched place
How much more will I take?
How much before it's too late?
Maybe it's all fate
Maybe it's my life I will take
The tears, so warm, roll down my face.
"I Try to Call"
I pick up the phone
Pretend to call
I don't want to be alone
But I don't want to take another fall
I can't handle being this way
I have so much to tell you
It's so hard to get through the day
I don't think you have a clue
I need to tell you how I feel
But I don't know if it will change a thing
Wish I could wake up and find this isn't real
But I don't see that happening
I dial the numbers, let it ring
You pick up and say "Hi?"
I can't speak, so no talking
I say "Sorry" and hang up without a "Goodbye"
I wish I could talk to you, but I just can't
I'll cry myself to sleep tonight
I need support 'cause I can't stand
We need to make things right
The fighting has got to end
I'm tired of crying
I will break with the more I bend
I just keep on dying
"When I was Young"
I remember back when I was just seven
Times were great, I was a good little kid
Now I'm striving to be good enough for heaven
With this helpless life full of sin
When I was young, nothing mattered
Nothing to worry about, not a single care
Now I look at the floor, and there's a bottle,shattered
I've hit bottom, I'm going nowhere
When I was a teen, I had so many friends
I was the talk of the town
All of that eventually ends
My life is slowly going down
Oh yeah, I remember back when I was just seven
Times were great, I was a good little kid
Oh how I'm striving, but I'll never make it to heaven
This life is too full of sin
"Lead You Along"
Ever since I entered this place
Since the day I saw your pretty face
The goodness from your lips I did taste
Not a moment with you did I ever waste
Girl, let's keep this steady pace
Slow down, girl, this ain't no race
Chorus:
Slow your movement, girl, let me show you the world
This cruel, dark place, take my hand through it
Let me lead you along
I'm your light, girl, and your path is lit
Now I am leaving this place
But I'm still with you, our fingers laced
I told you once, you got a pretty face
Time with you is not a waste
This is no race
Slow down, girl, keep a steady pace
Chorus:
Slow your movement, girl, let me show you the world
This cruel, dark place, take my hand through it
Let me lead you along
I'm your light, girl, and your path is lit
"Faithless"
I really thought I needed you, but now I see I was wrong
So long, for so many years, you fucked with my head
But now I see the truth, and I was wrong all along
I don't love you. To Hell with what I said
Nothing matters anymore
You and me, we're through
Have a wonderful life you stupid whore
Faithless, you never were true
Why did it have to end like this, so cold?
I loved you, and you did what you did. Why?
Girl, I swear you really had me sold
Until I caught you with some other guy
Nothing matters anymore
You and me, we're through
Have a wonderful life you stupid whore
Faithless, you never were true
Every kiss we shared together
This makes me want to cry
I thought we'd last forever
It's harsh, but I hope you die
Nothing matters anymore
You and me, we're through
Have a wonderful life you stupid whore
Faithless, you never were true
"No, Not Tonight"
Originally dedicated to Bridgette Stone
She sits there, confused, so much on her mind
She wonders why it's her getting hurt all the time
Rubs her eyes, begins to cry
Contemplates suicide
Takes the knife to her wrist
Wonders why it's come to this
Used to lead a perfect life
Now she's held down by strife
All she wants to do is die
See's no reason to stay alive
Neurotic to the bone, depressed
Feels claustrophobic, compressed
The pain in her stomach won't subside
From the world, she just wants to hide
Or maybe just fade away
But the pain's still there, it's there to stay
Maybe someday she'll be alright
But not tonight. No, not tonight
"We're Meant To Be"
I love you, but you aren't with me
My heart will burst with this jealousy
I just wish that you would open your eyes and see
That with me is where you are meant to be
If I must, I'll get down on one knee
I will beg and I will plea
I need you to be with me
I just wish that you would close your eyes and breathe
Run away with me
You will see
We're meant to be
Kiss me
Breathe, open your eyes and see
I need you with me
I don't want to beg and plea
But I want you here with me
Kiss me
Kiss me, while I hold you tightly
We're meant to be
"Control Our Own Destiny"
I need to find a way
To make her mine today
Can't find the words to say
Just wish she would stay
It's killing me to see her gone
We coulda fixed what went wrong
Could still be going strong
Still love her, I have all along
I need her here by my side
She is meant to be my bride
When she left, oh how I cried
It hurt so bad inside
Maybe we're not meant to be
But maybe we control our own destiny
And someday she will see
That she should be with me
Sometimes I can't sleep at night
That's when I know things aren't right
She's quite a beautiful sight
But she's not mine, atleast not tonight
"Here To Stay"
I gaze into your beautiful eyes and I see
That look you give me, it amazes me
Ever since we met, from that very first night
I knew we should be together, I knew it was right
So hold my hand tightly
And I'll be yours nightly
Daily I'll be here by your side
I'll hold you through this ride that we call life
So let all your worries fade away
And know that I am here to stay
I sit here next to you, and beautiful you are
I'm grateful that you're with me, together we'll go far
Look into my eyes darling, tell me what you see
You see the happiness I have from knowing that you love me
And I love you too, forever it's true
I'll always love you, even after all we've been through
Nothing can tear us apart, not even our little fights
Cause everything can be fixed, wrongs will become rights
I'll never again leave you, won't leave you here behind
That was the stupidest mistake of mine
You make me smile like no one ever has before
Your kiss keeps me coming back for more
And when I hold you, I know it's right
I knew it from the very first night
"Dreaming of a Life Spent With You"
I dream of a life once again spent with you
In reality we are still apart
Darling, you need to give me some kinda clue
I need to build a path to your heart
Give me a chance to redeem myself
I won't disappoint you this time
I put my mistakes on the shelf
I need you here to be mine
Come to me, let down your wall
Please, baby, again take my hand
Never again will I let you fall
I am here to help you stand
Look me in the eyes, and tell me what you see
You know you should be here in my arms
I know you can't deny that you still love me
Come on girl, let down your guards
The smile on your face gives it all away
I can tell that you miss me too
Once we're together, I'm here to stay
Dreaming of a life once again spent with you
"Smiles are Fake"
Originally dedicated to Kimberly Andrews
She sits there, smiling
But the smiles are fake
Inside she's dying
How much can she take??
The tears descend down her cheek
Her breathing turns to sobbing
Down on her knees, she feels so weak
Poor girl's chest is throbbing
She still sits there with that smile
Everyone knows it isn't real
But she'll be this way for a while
As she skips her next meal
She's beautiful beyond belief
Doesn't deserve to be treated this way
I'll let out a sigh of relief
When she smiles for real some day
"Future is Ours to Hold Together"
The future is ours to hold forever
It is when I know we will be together
Highschool, drama, relationships and friends
You will find that the one true thing never ends
Graduation will separate us for a while
But until the time is right, I just need you to smile
Stay strong for me, it won't be long
Think of me, play our song
Don't be too sad, wipe those tears dry
Time will pass in the blink of an eye
Enjoy yourself, live your life
Await the day you'll be my wife
I love you, and you love me
All will be fine, you will see
Just remember, we will be "us" forever
Because the future is ours to hold together
"Thunderstorm"
Laying here quietly, I hear the thunder
Staring at the sky, I begin to wonder
The stars are beautiful; they remind me of you
The way they sparkle, just like your eyes do
A gust of wind creates a gentle breeze
The thought of you puts my heart at ease
Something about you takes away my pain
Maybe it's thoughts of us kissing in the rain
It's starting to get cold out here tonight
Wish you were here so I could hold you tight
Everything about you makes me feel so warm
Nothing can change that, not even this thunderstorm
"One of a Kind"
Whenever I see her, my eyes begin to shine
She is like a goddess, so beautiful and divine
Her lovely smile keeps me addicted
Never in my life is this what I predicted
Hair so soft, skin so smooth
Paralyzing looks, I just can't move
Just a little peck, a kiss on the neck
And now her scent has my mind bent
I held her hand, looked in her eyes
I believe that is when I realized
Her and I are meant to be
She is the perfect girl for me
Something about her keeps me gazing
She is nothing less than amazing
Every single detail is fascinating
Sweet voice is captivating
She completely blows my mind
Simply put, she is one of a kind
"Forever"
There is this girl I love
But she doesn't feel the same
I pray to God every night
To take away this pain
I thought I could move on
But now I know I will not
Being an idiot, I messed up so bad
It took losing her to know she's all I've got
I didn't treat her well
But now I know I can
If only she'd give me another chance
And let me hold her hand
She would see that I'm all for her
She would know I care
I will always love this girl
This is so unfair
Her feelings are gone
And I don't know what to do
I'd give anything to be with her
Anything for you
You know who you are
And you know you're hurting me
I can't handle this anymore
I don't know how to get you to see
Feelings don't just go away
You know we should be together
There's no reason for us to be apart
That's why we said, "Forever."
