You loved
4/9/2008 at 3:03 AM
Can you hear me when I sing?
I do it for you alone
Can you hear me when I cry
for one more second of your breath on my face?
What would it take-
To cause your eyes to gaze on me?
What could I say-
To turn your thoughts into my dreams?
So I offer this, knowing I am nothing good
Trying just to touch your heart
And even if I could,
I know the only reason you would touch this broken man
Is because you loved me
Do you hear me when I sing?
I pour out my heart only to you
Do you hear me when I cry
For something in life you can't erase?
What would it take-
To cause your eyes to gaze on me?
What could I say-
To turn your thoughts into my dreams?
So I offer this, knowing I am nothing good
Trying just to touch your heart
And even if I could,
I know the only reason you would touch this broken man
Is because you loved me
the moment
4/9/2008 at 2:44 AM
Our eyes meet from across the room
One moment is too much and I look away
My heart is drawn to you
But something inside helps me push away
What you give me; your love
is so perfect for this moment, and forever
I want you to know that I love you
I love you and always will
Will I ever know what it means to love the way you do?
I feel so helpless when I'm within your reach
So lost in you
The way you touch me is too much for this moment
But a lifetime could never be enough
I want you to know that I love you
I love you and always will
fly

I wish that I could fly over the trees and all my problems
I wish I wasn't here; it seems so easy to just dissapear
All those things I said to you I never meant them
And all the lies I told to you I'm sorry
I can't run now; where would I run to?
I've got nothing left to hide, no secret left uncovered
I'm asking you to love me when there's nothing here to love
Let me make you one last promise even though I never could
I wish that I could fly back to those years and do it over
I wish that I was there in every way I wasn't there before
All the life to live I'd live again with burning fire
And all I had to give I'd give to you my love my life
But I can't run now; where would I run to?
I've got nothing left to hide, no secret left uncovered
I'm asking you to love me when there's nothing here to love
Let me make you one last promise even though I never could
I wish that I could fly over the trees and all my problems
I wish I wasn't here; it seems so easy to just dissapear
A couple of good lines from what I'm listing too right now

"aren't we all to you just lost causes?" anberlin
"I'll exist as if I don't feel conviction of my ignorance to my perfect prison - but I feel the stabs on my wrists and ankles every time I try to forget you..." dead poetic
Start Over Living
2/27/2008 at 2:50 AM
This is another one from a few years ago....
Her eyes say everything-
a beautiful dark shade, but lit from within
She covers her body, wraps it in rags
to her they're beautiful, like inside
Please tell me your secret old woman
you are killing me with your life
Is it what matters to you?
or what does not matter?
I want to start over
start over living
I saw a child yesterday
running with abandon, but still with a purpose
So small a thing, but holding then
what we've never grasped, a fearlessness unmatched
Please try to speak your mind little child
I need to know what you cannot say
Is it what matters to you?
or what does not matter?
I want to start over
start over living
My first song I ever wrote
2/27/2008 at 2:42 AM
I wrote this song way back in 2001- funny I consider that way back:)
FRIEND
When all you want is just to talk
and spend time sharing my life
I question your love and turn to things
that cannot satisfy
I feel so ashamed that you would call me your friend
after all you've done, I just turn and walk away
I feel so ashamed that you would call me your friend
and after all I've done, you just love me anyway
Why can't I give up the things I hold dear?
Why can't I lay down my pride?
When after all I do, you're still there,
calling me with arms open wide-
I feel so ashamed that you would call me your friend
after all you've done, I just turn and walk away
I feel so ashamed that you would call me your friend
when after all I've done, you just love me anyway
Best Wishes,
POLAROID
