She's still here when everyone's gone...

It's just a simple line
I can still hear it all of the time
If i can just hold on tonight
I know that nothing
Nothing survives
Nothing survives
I think i'm turned around
I'm looking up
Not looking down
And when i'm standing still
Watching you run
Watching you fall
Fall into me

Am i making something worthwhile out of this place
Am i making something worthwhile out of this chase
I am displaced
I am displaced

And she's my friend of all friends
She's still here when everyone's gone
She doesn't have to say a thing
We'll just keep laughing all night long
All night long


Am i making something worthwhile out of this place
Am i making something worthwhile out of this chase
I am displaced
I am displaced

It's just a simple line
I can still hear it all of the time
If i can just hold on tonight
I know that no one
No one survives
No one survives.


Thank you, Taelor Viviano.

And nobody knows it but me...

Boy it's been all this time, and I can't get you off my mind, and nobody knows it but me,
I stare at your photograph, still sleep in the shirt you left, and nobody knows it but me,
Every day I wipe my tears away...so many nights I've prayed for you to say...
I should've been chasin' you, I should've been tryin' to prove, that you were all that mattered to me.
I should've said all the things that I kept inside of me, maybe I could've made you believe,
that what we had, was all we'd ever need.

My friends think I'm movin' on, but the truth is I'm not that strong, and nobody knows it but me,
I've kept all the words you said, in a box underneath my bed, and nobody knows it but me.
But if you're happy, I'll get through somehow, but the truth is, I've been singing out,
I shoul've been chasin' you, I should've been tryin' to prove that you were all that mattered to me.
I should've said all the things, that I kept inside of me, maybe I could've made you believe...
That all we had was all we'd ever need...

It was all we'd ever need.
I thought it was all we'd ever need.

I should've been chasin' you, I should've been tryin' to prove that you were all that mattered to me.
I should've said all the things that I kept inside of me, maybe I could've made you believe...
That what we had...
That what we had...
was all we'd ever need.

And when finally meet I'll know it's right...

To Be With You - David Archuleta

I've been alone so many nights now, and I've been waiting for the stars to fall.
I keep holding out for what I don't know, to be with you, just to be with you.
So here I am staring at the moon tonight, wondering how you'd look in this light,
Maybe you're somewhere thinkin' bout me to, to be with you there's nothing i wouldn't do.
And I can't imagine, two worlds spinning apart, come together eventually.
And when we finally meet I'll know it's right, I'll be at the end of my restless road.
But this journey it was worth the fight, to be with you, just to be...
holding you for the very first time, never letting go, what I wouldn't give to feel that way.
Oh, to be with you. Oh
And I, can't imagine two world spinning apart, come together eventually.
And when you're standing here in front of me, that's when I know that god does exist,
cause he will have answered every single prayer, to be with you, just to be with you, yeah.
You.

As my fingers turn into angry fists.

"Sorry" Maria Mena

Vague sound of rain
pierces through my song again
but I get distracted by the way his toes move when he plays
so I let it burn

I just poured my heart out
there's bits of it on the floor
And I take what's left of it and rinse it under cold water
And call him up for more

And I say baby, yes I feel stupid to call you, but I'm lonely
And I don't think you meant it when you said you couldn't love me
And I thought maybe if I kissed the way you do, you'd feel it too

He said I'm sorry
so sorry
I'm sorry
so sorry

He grabs my wrists
as my fingers turn into angry fists
and I wisper why can't you love me, I'll change for you
I'll play the part

And I say baby, so I feel stupid to call you, but I'm lonely
And I don't think you meant it when you said you couldn't love me
And I thought maybe if I kissed the way you do, you'd feel it too

He said I'm sorry
so sorry
I'm sorry
I am sorry

Take time to realize,
That your warmth is
Crashing down on in.
Take time to realize,
That I am on your side
Didn't I, Didn't I tell you.
But I can't spell it out for you,
No it's never gonna be that simple
No I cant spell it out for you
If you just realize what I just realized,
Then we'd be perfect for each other
and will never find another
Just realized what I just realized
we'd never have to wonder if
we missed out on each other now.
Take time to realize
Oh-oh I'm on your side
didn't I, didn't I tell you.
Take time to realize
This all can pass you by
Didn't I tell you
But I can't spell it out for you,
no it's never gonna be that simple
no I can't spell it out for you.
If you just realized what I just realized
then we'd be perfect for each other
then we'd never find another
Just realized what I just realized
we'd never have to wonder if
we missed out on each other now.
It's not always the same
no it's never the same
if you don't feel it too.
If you meet me half way
If you would meet me half way.
It could be the same for you.
If you just realize what I just realized
then we'd be perfect for each other
then we'd never find another
Just realize what I just realized
we'd never have to wonder
Just realize what I just realized
If you just realize what I just realized

I love you.

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why, you cant turn around and say good-bye
All you know is when im with you I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singing....
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
And I worry 'bout the ring you wear
Cause as long as no one knows
That nobody can care
Your fellin guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared
Im singin...
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
It better off if you don't ask why
I'm not the reason that you go stranded
We'll be alright if you don't ask me to stay
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
You don't know how you met me
You don't know why, you cant turn around and say good-bye
All you know is when im with you I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singing....
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me
Follow me
Everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you want to leave
I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

why can't you take me in your arms now????!!!!!!

inside my mouth i can hear all the voices say
do not lean over the ledge
i shouldn't look down and i shouldn't have found
that your lips i still taste in my head
raising my glass to the head of the class
as she powers out steps one through ten
i think i'll be fine if i'm covered in wine
nice to hate you and love you again
and see you again
and see you again

weary and worn little monster is born
tell me lies and i'll justify them
desperate today and it's making me pay
for that night for that kiss for your bed
whoever dared to love someone out there
i don't need a balloon and a pin
the name of the game is outrunning the blame
so i hate you and love you we're friends
guess we'll be friends
i guess we'll be friends

oh why (why) can't (can't) you take me in your arms now?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me in your arms now?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me?

better stop crying hello and goodbye-ing
go on through me slip on through my hands
you get your time and the other half's mine
it's okay this love weighs fifty men
it's okay this love weighs fifty men
it's okay this love weighs fifty men

oh why (why) can't (can't) you take me in your arms now?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me in your arms now?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me?
why (why) can't (can't) you take me in your arms now?
why can't you take me?

amen
amen
amen
amen
