Elizabeth







Elizabeth, the girl to kiss
When she’s gone, she will be missed
Elizabeth, the girl to hold
When she’s near, I’m no longer cold

Her smile is the prettiest in the land
Catch her… if you can

Elizabeth, the girl to know
Her beauty is more than what is shown
Elizabeth, the girl to love
An angel sent from above

Her smile is the prettiest in the land
Catch her… if you can
Never be the same again

Her smile is the prettiest in the land
Her smile will kill you where you stand
Catch her if you can

Nothing










Nothing is here
Something stirs
A rising inside
Of falling behind

Nothing is clear
Something is near
Fire burning bright
Lights dimmed tonight

And all I wanted was you
To give in to a love so true

Nothing is fear
Something is clear
A moment to shine
And take back what’s mine

Nothing is pain
Something’s to blame
A heart filled with doubt
So heavy somehow

And it’s too much, too much to take
Unhappiness too hard to fake

Nothing’s in the past
Some things do last
Memories divine
A heart mended in time

And all I wanted was you
To give in to a love that's so true
And for you to love me too

Fine Romance










You’ve said your goodbyes
Without a single word
Your heart broke to pieces
Without a single tear
At least I never saw one

I’ve begged you to stay
To give me another chance
I told you I’m sorry
But you knew better then
At least I hoped you did

You didn’t know I loved you
I should have told you when I had the chance
You didn’t know I loved you
Maybe if you did you would take me back

Maybe you just hate me
For all of my stupid shit
I pushed you and pulled
Until you felt the need to quit
I guess it just wasn’t meant to be
I guess you just had enough of me

If you only knew of what was going on
You would see and understand what was wrong

You didn’t know I loved you
I should have told you when I had the chance
You didn’t know I loved you
Maybe if you did you would take me back
You didn’t know I loved you
I knew I did when we shared our first dance
You didn’t know I loved you
I’m sorry to have ruined our fine romance

Delusions of Grandeur












Oh, how I thought it would and it could be this way
Oh, how I thought it would and it could be okay
Oh, how I thought it would and it could be the same
 
 
No, never, no
Never no, no, no
 
 
Oh, how I thought I would and could be the blame
Oh, how I thought I would and could live in shame
Oh, how I thought I would and could be so afraid
 
 
No, never, no
Never no, no, no
 
 
Oh, how I thought it would and it could end this way
Oh, how I thought it would and it could end today
Oh, how I thought it would and it could drift far away
 
 
No, never, no
Never no, no, no
No, never, no
Never no, no, no, no
 
 
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

A Woman












I'm in love with a woman
A woman I barely know
And it is because of this woman
I can never go home

I'm in love with a woman
A woman so beautiful
Just the smile from this woman
Is enough to damn my soul

I'm in love with a woman
A woman that breaks my heart
But it's because of this woman
The pieces are no longer apart

The stitches may tear
Open, to expose the wounds
Of past hurts and cares
That are more than just a bruise
But soon to mend just like anew

I'm in love with a woman
A woman I'll never truly know
And it is because of this woman
I've learned to breathe so very slow

I'm in love with a woman
A woman so wonderful
Just the eyes of this woman
Is enough to make me feel whole

I'm in love with a woman
A woman who stole my heart
And it is because of this woman
I've found my way back to the start

A place of forgiveness
Freedom, love, and peace
No fear or worry
Just curiosity
Now I can be happy

I'm in love with a woman
Do you think she loves me too?
Oh if only this woman
Didn't have to choose

I'm in love with a woman
Forever, I'll love her so
But it's because of this woman
I must learn to let her go

The stitches may tear
Open, to expose the wounds
Of past hurts and cares
That are more than just a bruise
But soon to mend just like anew

Answers To Nothing












Answers to nothing
Leads to everything
Becoming something
Can only mean suffering

Relentless, you are
Most cryptic by far
No escaping this
Fate sealed with a sinful kiss

No more searching
Tired from reaching
Done with the stitching
Gone with all the bleeding

Merciless, you are
Most savage by far
No escaping this
Secret kept behind a sinful kiss

Answers to nothing
Lead to everything
Becoming something
Can only mean suffering

Unforgiving, you are
Most selfish by far
No escaping this
Death by the most sinful kiss

No more searching
Tired from reaching
Done with the stitching
Gone with all the bleeding

... answers to nothing...

Don't Leave Me Here











I miss you when you're gone
Wish I could be in your arms
Hope you hurry coming home

Take my breath away
Like you do when you say
"There is nothing to fear, my love."

Please, don't leave me here, in the dark
Don't let the fear put out our spark
I've placed my heart in your hands

In truth, I never knew
Just how hard it would be for you
Now the world knows our news

Now as if you didn't know
I'm not okay and it shows
Now the story must come to a close

Please, don't leave me here, in the dark
Don't let the fear put out our spark
I've placed my life in your hands

If you cannot believe
Here with you is when I'm most happy
So please stay here with me

I miss you when you're gone
Wish I could be in your arms
Hope you hurry coming home

Please, don't leave me here, in the dark
Don't let the fear put out our spark
I've placed my heart in your hands

How To Love












I wish you could stay just as you are
In this moment you are your best by far
This day is perfect to repeat over again
Let's record it and send it to all our friends
To watch and learn; this is how to love
This is how you know when you're in love

I wish we could stay just as we are
In this moment I am my best by far
This night is perfect to repeat over again
Let's record it and send it to all our friends
To watch and learn; this is how you love
This is when you know all you need is love

I wish I could stay just as I am right now
In this moment we are at our best somehow
This love is perfect to repeat over again
Let's record it and send it to all our friends
To watch and learn; this is true love
This is the love of all love
This is how you love
All you need is love

...this love is perfect to repeat over again...

The Tears You Cry










What a life
To walk this road alone
What a way
To endure this journey home
I am afraid but I am strong

What a day
To spend my time alone
What a night
To dream in sleep so cold
I am afraid but my strength will hold

The tears you cry
Kill me inside
Always

Never knew
That I could feel like this
Never thought
That you would be missed
I am afraid but I will carry on

Never thought
It would end like this
Never knew
How much I need your kiss
I am afraid but I will move on

The tears you cry
Kill me inside
I'm sorry
The pain you feel
Will never heal
I should know
Cause' the tears you cry
Kill me inside
Always

What a summer to remember
What a year to never forget
Though you try, I never will

Cause' the tears you cry
Kill me inside
I'm sorry
The pain you feel
Will never heal
I should know
Cause' the tears you cry
Kill me inside
Always

Heaven Sent











I see beauty in your eyes
Diamond stars in dark skies
Sparkling with the sun's kiss
On all of ocean's bliss

A heaven sent not to be missed
A heaven sent not to be missed
Oh what a sight to behold

I see beauty in your smile
Mesmerizing all the while
Paralyzing with a single kiss
Filled with all of ocean's bliss

A heaven sent not to be missed
A heaven sent not to be missed
Oh what a sight to behold
Oh what a sight to behold

I see beauty in your voice
Paints over all other noise
A sound you wish you could kiss
The moment you first hear it

A heaven sent not to be missed
A heaven sent not to be missed
Oh what a sight to behold

I see beauty in the way you move
Makes me forget all I knew
I try and fail but it's a hit and miss
My salvation lies deep within your kiss

A heaven sent not to be missed
A heaven sent not to be missed
Oh what a sight to behold

Brand New Love












Knees so weak
Can only barely speak
My body paralyzed
As I stare into your eyes
Like seeing for the first time


A kiss so sweet
From you, is all I'll need
Your arms around me tight
Sends my heart flying high
Like breathing for the first time


A hug so warm
To keep me safe from harm
Your eyes burning bright
Please, take me home tonight
Like living for the first time


A fine romance
In this brand new love
A second chance
To be so keen on
A love so brand new
All I ever wanted was you


A love so pure
You have become my cure
The perfect remedy
For all my haunted dreams
Like sleeping for the first time


A life so grand
Together we take our stand
For everyone to see
As we embrace our destiny
Like love for the first time


A fine romance
In this brand new love
A second chance
To be so keen on
A love so brand new
All I ever needed was you



A marriage so strong
Never will you stand alone
Together we'll share
A life of love without fear
Like happiness for the first time

If I Could Fall











I’m afraid to fall in love
More afraid to let you go
And watch you walk away

Please don’t let me go
I can’t do this alone
If you leave me here
What would I have to show?

If I could fall
I would, in your arms
Won’t let you go
Until comes the dawn 
And I’ll kiss you awake from rest

You have shown me truth
The trust you gave I abused
Not much left from to choose

Everyone’s waiting to know
What we’ll do
If you’ll stay or if you’ll go
What would I do without you?

If I could fall
I would, in your arms
Won’t let you go
Until comes the dawn  
And I’ll kiss you awake from rest

If you could only see
Here in your arms
Is where I’m meant to be
So tightly hold on to me

Why am I so cold?
I need your fire to keep me warm
And keep my heart beating strong

If I could fall
I would, in your arms
Won’t let you go
Until comes the dawn  
And I’ll kiss you awake from rest

The One












When we met
Your eyes lit up my world
A smile that stopped time
I wished you were mine


Crossed my heart
Hoped not to fall
In love tonight
My heart flew so high
I thought I would die


A night to remember


I have waited every day
For a love so true
Spent my nights wide awake
Praying for you
To save me from... a life without you
Could you be the one?

Colors blur
Into a love so pure
My head spinning now
Our dreams come true somehow


Cross my heart
Hope to fall
In love tonight
My heart soaring high
Now that you are mine


A day to remember


I have waited every day
For a love so true
Spent my nights wide awake
Praying for you
To save me from... a life without you
Could you be the one?

And all along you were there
Waiting for me
Spent your nights wondering
If you’ll find me
And save me from… a life without you
Could I be the one?

A summer to remember
A year to remember


I had waited every day
For a love so true
Spent nights wide awake
Praying for you
To save me from... a life without you
Could you be the one?

And all along you were there
Waiting for me
Spent your nights wondering
If you’ll find me
And save me from… a life without you
Could I be the one?

Love To Tell You













Here, I wait
There, you go
There, you stay
Again, I'll never know

There, is your pain
Here, is your name
Scarred on my heart
Imprinted on my soul

There, you stay
Here, I go
Here, you say
I don't care to know

Here, is my pain
There, is my name
Scarred on your heart
Stained on your soul

If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
But you don't care anymore
If you'd care you would know
If you'd care you would know
If you'd care you would know
We've both been here before

I don't have to wait
You don't have to go
But if you stay
We could both know

There is no more pain
Gone with all the blame
Along with all the shame
That used to be your name

If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
If you'd ask I'd love to tell you
But you don't care anymore
If you'd care you would know
If you'd care you would know
If you'd care you would know
We've both been here before

There, you stay
Here, I go
Here, I say
I hope one day you'll know

Here, I stay
There, you go
Forgiven but never forgotten
Forever I'll love you so

Nothing After All












Oh how I long to run into the river
And feel the cool water bring me a shiver
The sun kisses your face as I rise into your embrace

Oh, today is filled with such promise
With you in my arms there can be no rest
With you here I am at my best

Oh, not like any other experience
The times you push and pull are fast
In the night you fear we won't last

But here, I know things can be different
Where we are one and happy from the beginning
And what we fear will be like nothing after all

Oh heavy doubts wash into shores somehow
Birds feast on all our secret thoughts of now

Oh help me see I'm not afraid to be happy
Fires burn across our sky
And all the while you wonder why

Oh, not like any other experience
When you push I'll pull you close
But it's when I push you fear most

But here, I know things can be different
Where we are one and happy from the beginning
And what we fear will be like nothing after all

Please bleed this silent mystery
Into a scary bed-time story
Then read to me our adventures
So I can tell you what we have learned

Cause here, I know things can be different
Where we are one and happy from the beginning
And what we fear will be like nothing after all

If You're Wondering








I could fall in love with you, if you let me
I could be yours, if you'll have me
My heart could beat for you, and only you

I could be happy with you, if you let me
I could be complete, just set me free
And my heart will fill with love for you

Tell me I'm yours, if I desire
Tell me you're mine, if I should choose
Tell me you want me like I want you

I could kiss and hold you, if you let me
You could take my hand and runaway with me
And my eyes will see no other but you

I could know your body, if you let me
You could know mine, if you should choose
And I'll spend my life loving you

Tell me I'm yours, if I desire
Tell me you're mine, if I should choose
Tell me you want me like I want you
Tell me I am what you seek
Tell me you are what I need
Tell me you need me like I need you

If you're wondering... I want you to

Tell me I'm yours, if I desire
Tell me you're mine, if I should choose
Tell me you want me like I want you
Tell me I am what you seek
Tell me you are what I need
Tell me you need me like I need you

I could be happy with you, if you let me
I could be complete, just set me free
And my heart will fill with love for you

Awakening

"Don't want to talk about it."
No one cares to know the truth
"Don't want to hear about it."
Not until it happens to you

And I hear what you're saying
But I see what you're doing too
And this isn't what you want to hear
But you know it's the truth

Now watch the masses scream out loud,
"Leave it alone!"

I'm going to talk about it
No Country can hold me back
You're going to hear about it
And no army can prevent that

And if I catch you lying to yourself
I'll bleed a cure out of you
Now try to deny the truth
It's just what you do 

And all the masses cry out loud,
"Save me, now!"

I'm going to use my voice
I'm not afraid to speak my mind
I'm going to make a choice
And watch you sweat 'til the end of time

And you're screaming 'til you're bleeding
As your crying out for your lord
But you'll bleed all through the night
'Til you think no more

And the blood on your hands will stain
And become all you know

I'm going to use my voice
I strongly suggest you do too
I'm going to make a choice
To always speak the truth

Miss You












I miss you when you're here
I miss you when you're gone
Oh the day feels so long
Without you

I missed you then
I miss you much more now
Wish you were here somehow
But it's alright

I feel you in my bones
In my blood
I feel you in my skin
In my mind
I feel you in my heart
In my veins
The warmth from you
I feel always

I miss you when you're near
But mostly when you're far
And all through the silent dark
Of this empty room

I miss you every day
I miss you every night
I even miss our fights
I would fight to have you now

I feel you in my bones
In my blood
I feel you in my skin
In my mind
I feel you in my heart
In my veins
The warmth from you
I feel always

I wish you knew
I wish you'd known how I felt
But now I just wish you are well
And hope you know I miss you

Cure












Tell me I'm wrong
Tell me I'm crazy
Worried over nothing
I am just scared
Don't make me laugh
I must be dreaming
All that I see is really not there

The stillness speaks
Deep within me
I open my eyes
Now I'm aware
My hand reaches
Out before you
Lost beyond this nightmare

Run and hide
When you're scared
Seek to find
When you're prepared
You must endure
The suffering for this cure

Tell me I'm right
Tell me I'm not crazy
Just a boy
Falling in love
Don't make me cry
I can not be dreaming
All that I want and need
Is here, with you

Run and hide
When you're scared
Seek to find
When you're prepared
You must endure
The suffering for this cure
Close the blinds
It's too bright
Stay here
With me tonight
You must endure
The love for this cure

Tell me I'm wrong
Tell me I'm crazy
A foolish boy
Falling in love
Don't make me cry
I can not be dreaming
All that I want and need
Is here, with you

Sad Song












This, of all nights
I am home, alone
This, of all days
I wake up, cold
Now, I’ve cried too much
Can’t save my soul, alone
I need somebody to hold

This, of all places
I am reminded of you
Now, of all moments
I find strength to choose
This, of all places
I can’t bear to lose
A place filled with memories of you

When the tears have dried
The knots come undone
How could you know?
You couldn’t have known
And if you asked
I wouldn’t have told
When the tears have dried
When the pain subsides
The knots come undone

Your skin, of all skin
I crave yours most
Your lips, of all lips
I long for most
Your love of all love
I desire most
A life with you, so beautiful

But this, of all nights
I am home, alone
This, of all days
I wake up, cold
Now, I’ve cried too much
Can’t save my soul, alone
I need somebody to hold

When the tears have dried
The knots come undone
How could you know?
You couldn’t have known
And if you asked
I wouldn’t have told
When the tears have dried
When the pain subsides
The knots come undone

The battle for the cure
The war for the girl
I’ll lose to let go
So I can be reborn… again

If you could only see
The scars you left me
From all that used to be
You’ll know my pain is yours

And when the tears have dried
The knots come undone
But how could you know?
You couldn’t have known
And if you asked
I wouldn’t have told
But when the tears have dried
Know the pain subsides
And the knots come undone
But if you stay tonight
There will be none

San Francisco












Lady love
All my life
Running scared
Awaiting Christ
Nevermore uncertain, my love
Scream with me one last time

You make me feel, you make me feel
Strong as I feel
You make me feel

Beneath the shade, amongst the stars aligned
Another moment lost in time
In the night we'll fall and rise
Next the uncertain
Soon fades to light

You make me feel, you make me feel
Strong as I feel
You make me feel

Lately I just hurt when you leave
Die inside when you say goodbye to me
It means the world to hear you say my name
But when you smile I fall from grace

A daily cloud hangs over me
The sight of you is all I need
You brought me the light
Let's watch each other sleep tonight

You make me feel, you make me feel
Strong as I feel
You make me feel

Whispers Through Silence












I have lived, loved, been lost, and lost that which I had held closest to my heart... that which meant everything to me. I have suffered, been broken, made mistakes, laughed, and cried. For the bad, I have no one to blame but myself. The pain and guilt I feel for my errors will never subside. They can only lay dormant until I am reminded of them again, for they are now a part of me much like I am a part of this world.

I have known love, real love twice in my life but I chose to walk away from it and to let it slip through my grasp. I was a fool; so very stupid and oblivious that I couldn't see what I had until it wasn't there anymore. Then, the pieces of the puzzle began to make sense. Once I saw my past choices clearly and realized the reality and truth in their significance, I finally understood. Now I have learned.

All I want to do is apologize, make amends, and atone for the evil things I did and said. It matters not if I am forgiven. I deserve punishment.

Life is strange. It is funny.

When the darkness rises the light fades away, but in time the light will shine bright again.

...

That time is now.

...

If home is where the heart is, my heart is far from reach and home is the only place I may find peace. Thousand of miles separate me from home and only one complication prevents me from being where I belong.

The keys no longer belong to me. Every locked door and every hidden room that protect my secrets are now left in the hands of fragility, beauty, truth, and love.

I miss you.

...

Again





I thought this would never happen again
I thought we would always be friends
I thought our bond was stronger than this
Now you’re gone and you won’t be missed

I will not cry
 I will not shed a tear tonight
My heart is broken
You’ve said good-bye
For the both of us
I will not try to deny
I’m not fine
I’m not fine

I thought your promises meant much more
I thought something was there that wasn’t there before
I thought we finally had our perfect ending
A happily ever after with a new beginning

I will not cry
 I will not shed a tear tonight
My heart is broken
You’ve said good-bye
For the both of us
I will not try to deny
I’m not fine
I’m not fine
I’m not okay
Things will be forever changed
We’ll go our separate ways
I’ll count the days
Until I die
I will not try to deny
I’m not fine
I’m not fine
I’m not okay
I’m not fine

Blood Drops




I’ve watched you cry many times before
I’ve watched you walk right out the door
My heart caves in and my knees buckle to the floor

I know now sorry just won’t do
But darling you know I love you
There is no one who can ever replace you

Time stops, my heart beats only for you
Nothing exists, when I am near you
Nothing matters, nothing but and only you

So, I’ll cry myself to sleep
Wondering if you’re thinking of me
The way I’m thinking of you
Missing how it used to be

Now, I’ll sing it loud for you to hear
Wherever you go, may it sound clear
Don’t give up on me my dear
There is nothing left to fear

Time stops, my heart beats only for you
Nothing exists, when I am near you
Nothing matters, nothing but and only you

So, I’ll cry myself to sleep
Wondering if you’re thinking of me
The way I’m thinking of you
Missing how it used to be

All is done and over
All is now in the past
I’ve learned my lesson
Nothing ever truly lasts
Except my love for you

Let it fall
Let it fall
Let it fall and rise inside again

So, I’ll cry myself to sleep
Wondering if you’re thinking of me
The way I’m thinking of you
Missing how it used to be

Time stops, my heart beats only for you
Nothing exists, when I am near you
Nothing matters, nothing but and only you
Blood drops, my veins burn, smoldering
Twisted knots, my stomach aches, throbbing
Cold envelops, my body’s will relinquishes, resigns

Death Is Not The End



Watch yourself disappear
Understand the lies you hear
Contemplate the suicide
Of this the silence deep inside

Know that which matters most
Forced to face the silent ghost
Contemplate the suicide
Of the sickness deep inside

Listen to the advice you give
See the reason why you live
Contemplate the suicide
Of the doubt deep inside

Your purpose, you can’t deny
Love is not the reason why
Contemplate the suicide
Of the fear deep inside

It’s okay to fail and fall
Don’t stop till’ you conquer all
Contemplate the suicide
Of the demon deep inside

Life is more than about your mistakes
It’s about the risks you take
Take your promise to your grave
Know that you are not insane
Just open minded and free-thinking
Opportunity is yours for the taking
Contemplate the suicide
Of the sadness deep inside
