You

You

Every time I look back
I always see her
In my thoughts and life
She is someone I'll always remember

What is it about her
Her voice, her face
Her personality, her eyes
Until the end of the earth I'll chase

The times I wish I could be her hero
The thoughts about her that make me smile
Have I truly moved on from all this
She has me trapped and left immobile

I'm stuck in thoughts with her inside
But where am I in these thoughts
I wish I could be in hers
But those are things that can't be bought

Maybe I won't feel like this forever
But she's making me completely lost
I don't know if she's right or wrong for me
She's always making my heart defrost

Close Your Eyes

Close Your Eyes

In the dark
It's when we truly see
When we can't judge
The minds of the free
We all want to be free
Something longed for always
Inside my mind I'm not trapped
I will be fine as long as it stays

Close your eyes
What do you see
The real but distant reality
Of who we are
And who we want to see
But what we're meant to be

We have things
We're supposed to see
And we have things
That we see anyway
Why see with your eyes
When your heart works better
Why hear their cries
And follow the trendsetter

Close your eyes
What do you see
The real but distant reality
Of who we are
And who we want to see
But what we're meant to be

We are walking blind with eyes that aren't really open
We keep stumbling again and again
Eyes will judge all the time
And they will be wrong
They will see what our hearts don't care about
Driving is crazy until we scream and shout
When really there is a star in front
And our heart knows how to hunt

Close your eyes
What do you see
The real but distant reality
Of who we are
And who we want to see
But what we're meant to be

Infinite Recurrence

Infinite Recurrence

Once, twice
It just keeps happening
Why don't you see
You can stop this

Once, Twice
Will you ever learn
It won't fix itself
You should stop this

Once, Twice
Only a few times
Because of the pain it brings
You need to stop this

It's just starting
It gets further now
But it's still the same
You should know how to stop

What is this infinite recurrence
That we know the answer to
But can't solve the problem
Will we ever be able

Perspective

Perspective

Do you see what I see
This golden opportunity
Do whatever you can to be happy
And be remembered for eternity
Its half full not empty
Either way it's good enough for me

Why look down
When you could look up
Why take half
When you could take all
Why settle for less
Then you truly deserve

Take what you're given
Don't sit and be hidden
Be known for who you are
For every little scar
Don't be fake
You're not a mistake

This is what I see
When I look around
Everywhere you'll be
Eventually in the ground
But what you did while you weren't will matter the most
You'll always be there as if a little ghost

Leave something behind
Make it bright and beautiful
Make it light paths for others
Completely full, to the brim
So others may see
The glass isn't half empty

It's not even half full
It's completely full and beautiful
Don't you see it
Shimmering in the sun
It's always there
Why can't you see
It's not just me
It's there
Trust me it's there

Coming Home

Coming Home

Walking down the highway
Going 12 miles an hour
All I have is my guitar and soul
And the need to have a good old shower

Walking all around to learn
Seeing things in different views
But things that aren't different from before
It's all about the perspective you choose

Will I ever be coming home
Will I have to walk through Rome
And back to miss what I had
Or like this am I glad
I see light in it all
Even when it's not shining
It's still there
It shouldn't be hiding

Got my blues and got my sadness
Picked it up cause at home I left my gladness
Far away from everything before
Said goodbye and it makes me feel sore

Sore in my heart and sore in my brain
Walking won't take me from the pain
This journey was started with personal gain
But now I just want to be home again

I want to be coming home
I don't want to make it to Rome
Or back, I miss what I had
Like this I'm not glad
I see light in it all
Even when it's not shining
It's still there
It shouldn't be hiding

I shouldn't have left it behind
I should've known what I had
I should've held on to it all
It would've always kept me glad

Now I know my error
It has made me sad
Now I know the solution
I'll see you soon mom and dad

Cause I'm coming home
I didn't even make it to Rome
But I'll make it back to what I had
And now I'll always be glad
I should've seen the different light
Because it was always shining
It's thankfully still there
It's no longer hiding

The Tree

The Tree

Firm roots planted
It stands tall
But with everything else
It will eventually fall

Tension and stress
Give a hard caress
Upon the strong foundations
Of the mighty and endless

Leaves flutter to the ground
Colour fades without tsound
The arms of the tree are weak
It's falling off its clean streak

People have fun with it
Maybe even love it
It has a hard time knowing what to do
Hoping it won't fall on you

It can't control completely what it may do
It isn't simple or see through
A tree doesn't chose where it falls
Or to whom the sadness befalls

The tree will fall
It waves it the wind already
How long will it stand
How long will it hold steady

Hope you're not who it falls on
It doesn't want to hurt you
Hope you're not who it falls on
I don't want to hurt you

Shine Through

Shine Through

Hey it's ok
You will survive
Live through today
Like you're truly alive

You are alive
Why not show it complete
Instead of being shy
And keeping it discrete

Because on the inside
You are really there

Shine through
The shadows and light
Fight out
The dark of the night
Stand tall
Show it who's who
Show it it's you
And let your light shine through

Reverse Regrowth

Reverse Regrowth

Backwards
It's not the way I want to go
Forwards
It's just the way we all grow
I wish I could grow up 
To be a kid again
I would have my innocence
If only I could go back when

The sky would shine so bright
And I would try to do what's right
When friends came easier
You just had to share an eraser
Where nothing was wrong with people
Colour shape or size
We all saw the insides
With our big innocent eyes

Backwards
The way we are really going
Forwards
The way the world isn't showing
It hard to see with all this society
Trying to deprive us of our destiny
Trying to stop you and me
From being who we should be

The sky would shine so bright
And I would try to do what's right
When friends came easier
You just had to share an eraser
Where nothing was wrong with people
Colour shape or size
We all saw the insides
With our big innocent eyes

Where are we going
We're in a reverse regrowth
Going the wrong way
To the wrong place
We're going the wrong way
to the wrong place
We don't see what
We soon will wish we had
We're going the wrong way
To the wrong place

When I grow up
I want to be a kid

Road Side Hope

Road Side Hope (hug)

When you're stopped because the road isn't smooth
Someone will be there to put back in your grove
When you've crashed and can't move
They will be there for you

Ready to come of their side
To help you with your life
They're not just inside
They're all around your life

On the side not very known
But attached by imaginary rope
They will hold you when you're sad
They're your road side hope

Hydroplaning out of control
You can't even find your soul
Where's your help when you need it
It's always been there undistracted

Ready to come of their side
To help you with your life
They're not just inside
They're all around your life

On your road of life
Sadness aiming down it's scope
They will take your bullet for you
They're your road side hope

When you feel your tank is empty
And you won't reach your destiny
Just open your eyes to see
Road side hope is there believe me

Hey

Writing has been a little slower recently, sorry guys, just been having trouble doing it a little haha, I'll still put up some as often as I can

Drawing Board

Drawing Board

Back to the drawing board
Screwed up again
Time to erase this
Another chance to begin

Eventually it won't be wrong
Eventually the plan will be right
You gotta keep going again
Just keep your goal in sight

Goals around, which to chose
Too many good things you don't want to lose
Love, happiness, helping, success while alive
The goals for which You strive

Back to the drawing board
Somethings done wrong
You made an error and it can't be erased
You'll leave it there and move along

You've made a few errors you can't erase
Maybe they're actually part of the answer and question
They make the board what it is
The birth of it and starting of it a good suggestion

You can't erase what's on your drawing board
You tried but it just cluttered to a horde
In the end it's always happened and can't be different
Those things in the past you can't throw away, you're not innocent

All those lines to scratch them out
Don't hide them, they're still there
They're what made you now
Don't keep trying to erase and fall into despair

All those things are beautiful
Every line and every flaw
The board is amazing and well done
You didn't pull the shortest straw

You can't change your drawing board
You have to keep every little flaw
Every part is beautiful
Every little thing I saw

Stars

Stars

Shimmering bright
In the night
All the time
Mind sublime

Inspiration
Undying nation
Of stars we see
We wish to be

No borders
No shelters
Just body and mind
Part of mankind

You are the stars
The ones that I see
Above par
Ones I wish to be

Not celebrities
From famous cities
You're the unknown
That I've been shown

Thank you for shining bright
Through my dark nights
And fighting my fights
Keeping my hope in sight

You're all stars to me
The people I believe
The people I love
The people I need

Don't stop shining your light
Keep it really bright
Bring those under your sight
And teach them what's right

You've helped me
To always see
The possibility
Of a greater destiny

Thank you

I'm Free

I'm Free

It's what I want to most
It's what I want in my destiny
To not have to deal with this
I want to be free

I'm getting close,
Don't stop me
I'm almost there
I just want to be free

You wish you could control me
I can't control these things I don't see
Why are you filled with jealousy
Can't you see I'm free

Get out of my system
Just leave me be
You're preventing me
From being free

I'm not going to
Let you stop me
I'm almost there
I'm almost free

You wish you could control me
I can't control these things I don't see
Why are you filled with jealousy
Can't you see I'm free

I'm not your pawn
You can't move me
I'm free, I'm free
I won't listen
It's my destiny
To be free, to be free

You wish you could control me
I can't control these things I don't see
Why are you filled with jealousy
Can't you see I'm free

Pictures

Pictures

Throwing my eyes around
Looking on good times
People showing me up
When all I could see was down

Believing in me
When I couldn't see nothing
All I did was keep running
I kept seeing them coming

Thank you for the images
The things you've said
The ways you believe
The pictures inside my head

All these things you throw at me
All these things I try not to see
The stuff I wish I could be
All the stuff that you see

Changing me everyday
Depriving me of what to say
Wishing I couldn't believe you
Wishing the good things weren't true

Thank you for the images
The things you've said
The ways you believe
The pictures inside my head

Dream Fighter


Dream Fighter

Inside, in your head
Sadness, being spread
Happiness, already fled
Hope, never dead

The dark thoughts carried with you
Things you never do
Things that are never true
Then why oh why are they with you

Let me be there
With you inside
Your head with you
And they will hide
From the wrath
Of our desire
Let me help you
Let me be your dream fighter

What, is hurting
Why, is it burning
You, from the inside
Can, I stop it

Let's clear them from your mind
And help you feel fine
Let's free you from this pain
That is not plain

Let me be there
With you inside
Your head with you
And they will hide
From the wrath
Of our desire
Let me help you
Let me be your dream fighter

I'm not scared, I'll go with you
I'm ready, to protect you
I will not fall to the untrue
I'm not scared, I'll go with you
I'm ready, to protect you
I will not fall to the untrue

Let me be there
With you inside
Your head with you
And they will hide
From the wrath
Of our desire
Let me help you
Let me be your dream fighter

Sorrow for Today, Hope for Tomorrow

Sorrow for Today, Hope for Tomorrow

Sorrow for Today

Rain, falling, surrounding me
Pain, crowding, it's all I see
Everything around is darkened
My vision is becoming blackened

In this land of terrible hypocrisy
There's not much I can look around and see
I look up to the sky and call
Is that it, is that all

Storming around like madness
This days contents are horrendous
What will I do, what will I say
There's only sorrow for today

Hope, hiding, forsaken us
Good, away, what do we trust
All I can see and feel is the dark
I can't even see hopes fires spark

In this land of total make belief
There's too much to look around and see
I look up to the sky and call
Is that it, is that all

Storming around like madness
This days contents are horrendous
What will I do, what will I say
There's only sorrow for today

With this do I say we're lost
With out a single cause
Or will we really start to know
There's sorrow for today, but hope for tomorrow
There's sorrow for today, but hope for tomorrow

Hope for Tomorrow

Hope, growing, complete happiness
Sorrow, hiding, say by to that mess
The sun has risen anew
Bringing hope to people like you

We always have permissions to happiness
You can use it to leak away sadness
And when your life seems a mess
There's always more to be met

It's hard to think it will go away
It may come back another day
It may infest your mindplay
But there will be no sorrow for today

Light, shining, pure crazy joy
Dark, running, it bought our ploy
We have won this fight
We won't lose our right

We always have permissions to happiness
You can use it to leak away sadness
And when your life seems a mess
There's always more to be met

It's hard to think it will go away
It may come back another day
It may infest your mindplay
But there will be no sorrow for today

And when the hope from tomorrow is gone
You can just sing this song
It's the never ending cycle
Is that it, is that all

Reason I'm Gone?

Hey dudes and dudettes, I'm not dead if any of you think I am, I just haven't been able to use my iPod, which is where all my iPod notes are, which is where every single thing I've written originated from. So yeah, I haven't been writing much, and it's been killing me :P

Other Side

Other Side

Stuck on the other side
These iron bars I am behind
My weakness lead me to the trap
Now all I reach, for you
Pain on the other side
But I still want to be there

Under the stars
And the moon's glow
It's where you reside
It's where I want to be
On the other side

Pain and loss on this side
No doubt I will find it
But in the end everythings worth it
Because at one point, I had you
Not on that side
It's where I want to be

Under the stars
And the moon's glow
It's where you reside
It's where I want to be
On the other side

Bleak and dark my memories of you
They're starting to go away
I want them to stay happy or sad
I just want to, remember you
The memory of the other side
Where you still reside

Under the stars
And the moon's glow
It's where you reside
It's where I want to be
On the other side

It's not where I am
It's where I used to be
Weakness into
And strength out
It's how I left the other side

Running Away Isn't Hard

Running Away Isn't Hard

Scared inside
Wanna run and hide
That won't help
It will always chase you

Sooner or later you'll have to turn
Or through your back it will burn
It may seem easier
That's because running isn't hard

Running away isn't hard
It's easy to be scarred
Or try to disregard
Because running isn't hard

Turn your back
It won't go away
Try that way
It will always stay

Do something
Don't sit crying
At least die trying
Instead of running

Running away isn't hard
It's easy to be scarred
Or try to disregard
Because running isn't hard

You won't solve anything
Running away from it
Turn and stay
Make it play
Tell them what you want
Make them know who you are
Good or bad
Happy or sad
Don't run away from what's there to stay

Reflection Of Me

Reflection Of Me

How do they see what I cannot
Why do they say things I'm not
I'm not as good as they say
I'm a terrible person everyday

Fall into temptation and do bad
Probably make people feel sad
Don't do anything good
Don't do what I should

Why can't I see what they see
The reflection of me
It's something I want to be
The reflection of me

I'm not great at stuff
I always find life tough
I try to do what I can
But I'm not good enough

Two sides to this
I'm on one, reflection the other
Good on one side, bad on the other
Only one is seen, guess

Why can't I see what they see
The reflection of me
It's something I want to be
The reflection of me

Am I missing something
Or is it what they see
Do I need a mirror
Because I don't see what they see
I don't see that version of me
I only see what I should be

Why can't I see what they see
The reflection of me
It's something I want to be
The reflection of me
