Everlong

I wonder, when I sing along with you
If everything could feel this real forever,
If anything could ever be this good again...


Things We Do

She laughed and said no way
This can't be happening
Too excited to contain the emotion
I smiled and was proud
I've always been proud of you
If only you had some idea
How proud you made me
How I beam when you're around

Sometimes I take your things
And I always intend to give them back
It just never happens though
It slips my mind
But then I see my things at yours
And realize we are the same
And I get angry and demand them back
I secretly don't mind

You whisper to me, don't make me go
You fret and worry and panic
I make you go because you'll do fine
You always do achieve
I didn't mean to cry when you read
The first time in front of us
I couldn't let you see me cry
And then I had to leave


Of Sharks, Egg Sandwiches and All In Between

Just sitting on the shelf, ever waiting
To be noticed, but what for? Nothing
Lies you feed yourself daily,
Lies that lie to you

Colours that sweep across the sky
And stretch across the plains before us
This moment should last a lifetime
I'll never wish it's end upon us

Beside me, you'll smile, you'll laugh, and I'll know
You are mine, momentarily forever



Sprint

I seem to be able to write
At three am in the morn
All my feelings are typed
And into words transform

It's me avoiding my bed
It's me avoiding some sleep
It's me avoiding some rest
Which I so badly need.

I wish I were in your arms
I wish you weren't just in my head
If I could compose the songs
I'd sing you my words instead[b]Sprint[/b]

I wish you weren't just in my head

No Diamonds, Please

It's not that I don't love you
I can't explain it like I can with her
Or why I can at least put it in words.

You know you're my everything
I know that I'm yours
Its not about having proof in a ring?

Why can't I hold your hand if you're scared?
Why can't I fight away the monsters in your closet?
Let me protect you, like I promised.
