This One's For You, Love (Drop Everything)

< This one's for you, love! :) I'm posting it right after 'Take It Back' to counteract 'Take It Back's' "negativity" that Alena was pointing out. :P ;) >

This one's for you, love,
It's just like I told you,
It would be.
Everyone's gonna be singing,
Singing about you,
And the first one's going to,
Be me.
REFRAIN:
Sometimes you gotta drop, drop,
Drop everything,
You gotta drop everything,
Drop everything,
For someone else.
But I don't wanna drop, drop,
Drop everything,
Not gonna drop everything,
Drop everything,
For anyone else,
If it means dropping you.

This songs about you,
About the way you,
Make me feel.
And I gotta tell you,
Nothing's ever,
Ever ever felt this real,
No, love.
REFRAIN

We've got the same God,
You've got the same hopes and,
Dreams as me.
You take the key to,
My dungeon door and,
Set me free.
REFRAIN

You always make me sparkle,
And love, you always,
Make me shine.
I want you to promise,
Promise that you'll always,
Always be mine.
REFRAIN

This one's for you, love,
It's just like I told you,
It would be.
Everyone's gonna be singing,
Singing about you,
And the first one's going to,
Be me.
REFRAIN

They don't really know you,
Do they, do they?
They'll sing about you,
But they don't know you,
Do they, do they?
But I do, and I love you.
They don't really know you,
Do they, do they?
They'll sing about you,
But they don't know you,
Do they, do they?
But I do, and I love you.
They don't really know you,
Do they, do they?
They'll sing about you,
But they don't know you,
Do they, do they?
But I do, and I love you.

Take It Back (So Far Gone)

( So. Awesome. Eh? Oh, wait, you can't hear me singing it... I think it sounds better sung.... problem? I think I'm just using a, um, deformed version of a tune to another song.... Is that illegal? I can't even verify that I'm right, because I can't remember what song the tune went to; I'm just pretty sure I didn't have the creativity to come up with it myself... :P )

Take it back, 
Take it back;
Tell me you love me.
How else can you explain,
The way you used to treat me?
Take it back, take it back,
Tell me you need me.
Pleas promise me that,
You'll never leave me.
Ooh, but you're always lying,
Ooh, you'll only leave me crying.
Ooh, I never realized that,
I was so alone,
And you were so far gone.

Take it back,
Take it back;
Tell me you love me.
Oh please, can't you explain,
The way that you're treating me?
Take it back,
Take it back;
Tell me you need me.
Please promise me that,
You are done leaving me.
Ooh, but you're only lying,
Ooh, you've always left me crying.
Ooh, I never realized that,
I was so alone,
And you were so far gone.


The League of Extreme Insanity

< Okay, you guys already know I'm crazy, so I'm just going to go ahead and post this... XD >

I'm a prodigy of insanity,
People like to make fun of me,
'Cause I don't know who they are.
I'm a prodigy of insanity,
Maybe you've never met me,
I'm the girl who'll never be a superstar.
We always sing the same old songs,
And never make it far,
It never takes too long,
When you aren't the one waiting in the car.
When we shoot for gold,
We never get par.
It's the League,
The League of Extreme Insanity.

Forever Will I Never

< For my 'Beloved Conspirators'. >

I know that this is not goodbye,
It's just goodbye for now,
So no matter how I try to cry,
I don't think that I know how.
Forever will I never forget you,
No matter who I meet,
Thank you, thank you, thank you,
For all the little things.

I see your car pull away,
Each night in my dreams,
I think of the things I didn't say,
And wonder what is means.
Forever will I never forget you,
No matter who I meet,
Thank you, thank you, thank you,
For all the little things.

I found a spot on my bedroom wall,
Where I like to stare,
I've gone crazy since you've gone,
And no one seems to care.
Forever will I never forget you,
No matter who I meet,
Thank you, thank you, thank you,
For all the little things.

The grass is green, but I am blue,
I know that the world goes on.
And oh, but blazes, I miss you,
No matter how shortly you're gone.
Forever will I never forget you,
No matter who I meet,
Thank you, thank you, thank you,
For all the little things.

I'd give away my very self,
If I could bring you back here,
But I don't want to keep you on a shelf,
So I'll just spend time in fear.
Forever will I never forget you,
No matter who I meet,
Thank you, thank you, thank you,
For all the little things.
Forever will I never,
Forever will I never,
Never will I ever,
Forget you, friend forever,
No, I never ever will,
I never ever will,
No, I never will,
I never ever will,
No, I never will,
Forget you, friend forever,
Forever are you my friend,
No, time is not my friend,
You are my friend forever,
Forever you  are my friend.
Forget you will I never,
Never ever will I forget you,
Forget you forever never,
Forever never, friend.

Definitely

< I got Alena's '+1' on this one! Mini? Hmmm.... >

I am definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely more than just alive,
And I will definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely more than just survive.
But I know it will help if you will hold my hand,
And I know that it will help if you help me stand,
'Cause I know that this is gonna take some time;
Life doesn't seem to like walking a straight line,
But I will definitely, definitely, definitely, definitely more than just survive!

Can You Sing This Song?

< Sing this song and send me your video! ominac.stuckwisch@gmail.com >

Can you sing this song,
Can you sing this song for me?
Can you write me an ending,
Write me an ending that's happy?
Do you live your life and make yourself feel good,
Or give it to a friend 'cause they said you should?
Not every song,
Not every song is meant to be the same.
If every singer did,
what every other said they should,
Then that would be a shame.
Can you sing this song,
Can you sing this song for me?
Can you write me an ending,
Write me an ending that to set me free?

Chamomile Tea

< WHY do I chamomile tea in this song? I don't know; it just felt right. X) VOTE- should this be in song MINIS???? >

Chamomile Tea,
She sang,
"The truth will set you free,
My friend.
A lies not worth the pain,
That lying costs."

The Wings of A Butterfly

REFRAIN:
She's got tears painted on her face,
Like the wings of a butterfly.
As much as it hurts to hear them laugh,
It hurts more to let them see her cry.
So she won't let them see her break,
She'll paint her face so the tears look fake,
And away she'll fly, fly, fly,
On the wings of a butterfly.

It hurts to smile when you feel bad,
But it's the weakest pain she's ever had.
She gets through it 'cause she knows the cost;
If they see her break down, she knows she's lost,
So she comforts herself with the thought that soon,
Away she can fly, fly, fly,
'Cause she's got the wings of a butterfly.
REFRAIN

She never liked parties much, anyway,
She'd leave if her parents didn't want to stay.
There's really no one she wants to dance with there;
All she can do is sit and watch and smile and stare.
But she knows everything's gonna be alright,
When she can fly, fly, fly,
On the wings of a butterfly.
REFRAIN

She'll get home feeling too tired to sleep,
Too cold for a sweater, to sad to weep.
She'll sit on the floor and kick off her shoes,
And search the radio for some Blues.
And if the door was open while she danced with her broom,
You could see her fly, fly, fly,
With the wings of a butterfly.
REFRAIN

She Who Cries

Is not she with tears on her face,
More lovely than her with a smile?
Her eyes adorned with little pearls,
Her cheeks rosy all the while.
Is she not the loveliest of all, 
Is she not the one you'd ask at the ball,
To dance across the marble floor,
And all her sorrows on you to pour?
Is not she who cries the loveliest of all?

Jewelly-Juel

< For Julianna, perhaps the only person who can decode this song. :) >

Juel, Juel, Julianna,
With a smile like a jewel,
She plays by her own rules.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
I said what? No No!
Jewelly-Julianna.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
Curious gal in a secretive world,
Wants to know what's in your fingers curled.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
I said what? No No!
Jewelly-Julianna.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
Sugar sweet and roses red,
She imagines clouds to be her bed.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
I said what? No No!
Jewelly-Julianna.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
No one can quite grasp her creative mind,
And so they just throw in random lines.
Juel, Juel, Julianna,
I said what? No No!
Jewelly-Julianna.
I said what? No No!
No No! No No!
Juel, Juel, Juel, Juel, Juel, Juel,
Jewelly-Julianna.

Mad At Everyone

< I know this song sounds awful, but I was mad when I wrote it! Being mad makes you say awful stuff- though I'm not sure yet if I was mad angry, or just mad crazy... >

Seems like everything I eat tastes like poison,
Seems like everything I do comes undone,
No, I know you didn't do anything wrong,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I know I've got no reason to be crying,
I know that there is nowhere left to run,
I know that there's no reason to be hiding,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
My life is maniacal, tear-stained laughter,
A heart of yellow cheese that's almost gone,
You think I'm okay because I'm laughing, but
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone,
If the world is a humongous glass pie dish,
I'd say that we have all been over done;
I really haven't anything against you,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I'm tracing figure eights across my doorstep,
When I started I thought is sounded fun,
Now I'm just doing it for distraction, 'cause
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I don't want to fight this battle I'm losing,
I don't want to chase my dreams with a gun;
You've not given me cause to be unhappy,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I'm not tickling you for reasons personal,
I just wish you'd see I'm shaded from the sun;
I'm not looking for you to come and save me,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
It's so painfully easy to act friendly,
If you can finish all that you've begun;
Did I mess up and say that it was easy?
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
Maybe you would say it's hard, or easy,
Maybe you would lie about what you've done,
Or perhaps you are one of the truth tellers-
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I know that it's no longer any secret,
There's no cause for the monster I've become;
I know that I can't justify the screaming,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I know that you can't comprehend this madness;
A single thread in a shirt comes undone,
I know you must have thought that we were past this;
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone.
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone,
I'm just mad at everyone, I'm just mad at everyone,
I'm just mad at everyone, mad at everyone,
Mad at everyone, mad at everyone,
Mad at everyone, mad at everyone,
Everyone, everyone, everyone,
One....
One....

Naina-Bird

< For Naina-Bird, naturally. BTW, Naina- watch the bowl! :) >

Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
I'm not like you at all,
But you like me after all,
Ain't that true?
Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
You're getting so tall,
You aren't here, so I call;
I miss you.
REFRAIN:
I'm still looking for someone,
Who said they were here for me,
And I thought I was once there for you.
But when troubles are nearer than friends,
And the road comes to an end,
What could I do?
I wish I could fly away like you.

Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
With smile so bright,
You light up the night,
Yes you do.
Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
There are songs on your tongue,
So I'm writing one,
Just for you.
REFRAIN

Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
You've come so far,
Since wishing on stars;
How are you?
Naina-Bird, Naina Bird,
I guess that I'm fine;
I'm just passing time,
Missing you.
REFRAIN

Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
Naina-Bird, Naina-Bird,
I wish I could fly away like you.

Annalisa Faithful

< For my friend, Annalise Harrison. Come back soon. >

She's stuck between half-way child,
And half-way adult,
And both halves just need to be loved.
No one seems to understand her-
She is not her sister;
Being the 'Yes-Man' isn't always enough.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

Well, she's far away,
And I missed her today,
So I thought that I would write her a  song.
Someone should sing to her,
But they don't know they words,
So I'll just keep it safe while she's gone. 
Ooh, but she  tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

With all her cards on the table,
She might be able,
To see that she's never alone.
But she hides them well,
And most people can't tell,
That she'd be happy just to get the bones.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
She tries too hard to be loved.

Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
My Friend.
Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
She is my friend,
Always.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.

Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
My Friend.
Annalisa Faithful, Annalisa,
She is my friend,
Always.
Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.


Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.


Ooh, but she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries.
Ooh, yes, she tries,
Everyone knows that she tries,
She tries too hard to be loved.





Merry Me

< Did I say 'Merry Me' too many times? >

Merry Me,
On mountains in the distance,
And lines of people made of cold gold.
Merry Me,
Take me far from everything I know,
But these tear stained memories of old.
Merry Me,
I used to be,
So sure of everything but,
Now all that I see are water falls,
These days; they seem to like to flow,
Down rock walls made of question marks,
And fear.
Merry Me,
I used to be so sure of myself,
But now nothing is clear.
Merry Me,
Wandering on my own,
And wondering if I really know,
What love is.
Merry Me,
Finally realizing that,
When you're here it feels like,
I'm all alone.
Merry Me,
Sitting in the silence and,
Pretending I hear clocks tick,
Like back home.
Merry Me,
Wishing that I didn't have this ring,
Wishing that I hadn't said a thing.
Merry Me,
I don't want to break your heart,
'Cause I feel like at least one of us,
Should have one.
As for me, I've nothing to hang onto,
I really wish I knew just,
What i think of you.
But these days,
Even a mirror tells me nothing,
Of myself.
Merry Me,
So I'll just be Merry Me,
Unless you can come up with,
Someone else.

Had To Be

< This was going to be a refrain, too; let me know if you come up with any other stanzas! I'd really appreciate your  contribution! >

I could've been wrong,
But I had to be right,
We should've been friends,
But we had to fight.
I could say I don't understand,
But that's a lie,
Because I knew all along,
It had to be you,
It had to be you,
Who'd say goodbye.

Two

< I hope you <3 this song. It started out as an idea for a refrain, but then I realized it was the ONLY verse I had in mind for the song, so if wouldn't exactly work to call it a refrain. I thought about adding the lines " 'Cause I'm part of you/ I know I'm part of you" to then end, but changed my mind. Let me know if you think I should add them after all! :) If you're a first timer, I'd love it if you +1'd my blog before you left! >

You got it all wrong,
This isn't  my song;
It's all about you,
And those things that you do.
You don't understand;
You were always my man,
Long before my daddy gave you my hand.
And soon you're gonna see that it's true,
You and I aren't really two.

Touch You Heart

< Hey guys! I know I haven't been on in awhile; I'm really sorry! Here are some more songs- finally. :P I'll also be starting work on the new 'renovations.' :) >

Every time I share a song with you,
I hope that inside hides a dream come true.
Every time someone reads what I have to say,
I hope that my words had strength the make somebody's day.
And every time I feel myself start to fall apart,
I console myself with the thought,
That I touched somebody,
Touched somebody's heart.
REFRAIN:
'Cause I know that everyone get's lost inside,
And I know there aren't enough places to hide.
And I know everyone looks for words that speak to them like art,
So I hope that when you read these songs,
One will touch you,
Touch your heart.

Every time you come back, I hope you find something new,
And when you need more than that, I hope some songs ring true,
If singing and writing is what will reach you,
Singing and writing is what I'll do.
And every time I feel myself start to fall apart,
I console myself with the thought,
That I touched somebody,
Touched somebody's heart.
REFRAIN

Welcome In The Dawn

(Posting songs Alena specifically said she liked: Welcome In The Dawn, followed by Touch Your Heart, Am I One Of Them,  and All These Stolen Rainbows! :)  However, I may not have time to post them all in one day... :/ Just be patient...)

Welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn,
Don't say goodbye,
Don't walk away,
Before you find,
The words to say,
To welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn.
Don't hurt yourself,
And get lost,
Don't pay the price,
Just count the cost,
To welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn.
Don't leave me here,
Upon a shelf,
Don't show your fear,
Just show yourself,
To welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn.
Don't forget,
You're only hope,
Forget regret,
And the end of your rope,
And welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn.
Don't tie the noose,
To hang yourself,
Listen for new,
That could mean help,
And welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn,
Welcome in the dawn.

Pain

You can't just wash the pain away by crying,
No, no,
And you'll just give the pain away by dying,
I know, I know,
And there's no good in trying to hide it,
No, no,
You can just save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day.

Footsteps in the hall fade away,
As you forget the memory;
One day it will come back to haunt you,
But right now there's nothing you can do.
 You can't just wash the pain away by crying,
No, no,
And you'll just give the pain away by dying,
I know, I know,
And there's no good in trying to hide it,
No, no,
You can just save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day.

The cuts are too deep to try to cure,
And deeper down you can't be sure,
If you want to be fixed, anyway,
Or just watch your blood drain away.
You can't just wash the pain away by crying,
No, no,
And you'll just give the pain away by dying,
I know, I know,
And there's no good in trying to hide it,
No, no,
You can just save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day.

You find dark corners in your mind to hide,
And the people can't believe you've left them behind,
Yet there you are, and not the same,
As you patiently drive yourself insane.

You can't just wash the pain away by crying,
No, no,
And you'll just give the pain away by dying,
I know, I know,
And there's no good in trying to hide it,
No, no,
You can just save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day.

The rain hasn't leaked inside yet,
But your coverlet is wet,
Because all you can do is sit and cry,
And you don't even know if you remember why.

You can't just wash the pain away by crying,
No, no,
And you'll just give the pain away by dying,
I know, I know,
And there's no good in trying to hide it,
No, no,
You can just save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain for another day.
Save the pain for another day,
Save the pain,
Save the pain,
Save the pain,
Pain,
Pain.

Tic-Tac-Toe Melody

< I LIKE THIS ONE!!! What do YOU think??? :D>

Last summer was a parody,
Or your favorite melody,
Criss-cross,
Applesauce,
On the sand,
Playing Tic-Tac-Toe.
The waves crashed against me,
Like a raging storm.
Up and down,
All around,
But I reach for your hand,
And you squeeze it tight.
Salty foam gathered in my eyes,
And tears dripped on my lips,
Fresh and wet,
Forget,
Just forget,
The pain I used to know.
The sand stuck to my feet like slippers,
Warm and comforting like a long lost dream,
Fairy dust,
Pick-up rust,
Sweet and salty,
Like the chocolate pretzels on our paper plates.
The sun shone on your hair,
And I froze your image forever in my mind,
Camera film,
Ocean foam,
Leaning back,
To laugh at the seaweed on my head.
Last summer was a parody,
Of your favorite melody,
Criss-cross,
Applesauce,
On the sand,
Playing Tic-Tac-Toe.
This summer is a parody,
On my favorite melody,
Criss-cross,
Applesauce,
On a bean-bag chair,
We've all bee there;
To that time we think "we'll never know"...
This summer is a parody,
On my favorite melody,
Criss-cross,
Applesauce,
On a bean bag chair.
Playing Tic-Tac-Toe to side-track my mind,
We'll never know...
We'll never know...
We'll never know...
And some of us have yet to care.
 

Captive

I'm not so sure I want to be set free,
At least I'm safe while in captivity,
Safe from myself...
I can't make any mistakes if I can't make my own choices,
And the clanging of the chains blocks out all the voices,
In my head...
REFRAIN:
So be careful what you wish for,
It's not always so lovely,
And sometimes it's safer to tell lies,
Than let the truth set you free,
And the monster doesn't know it,
But he protects you from the monster that you could be.

My eyes are accustomed to the dark and dirt,
And my heart couldn't endure as much as my body's hurt,
Nor could my mind...
My cup holds my blood, my plate holds my bones,
At least I'm not dead; I'd die on my own,
Here I'm not alone...
REFRAIN

The serpents are now waking,
They've no conscience against taking,
Anything from me...
I can do without my memory,
So long as they don't set me,
Free today...
REFRAIN

Everything You Do

I'm learning to love like you,
To play the tricks you do,
To trust people just like you,
I'll do everything you do.

I'm learning my hate from you,
Don't be surprised if we are through,
Or if I stay out drunk all night;
I'm doing everything you do.

Yeah, and I'll be hurt and lonely,
But you will be, too,
And I'll have all your ex's for a party,
'Cause that's just what you'd do.

<... This isn't what I remember this song being like... Oh, well. This is a stupid song I wrote a long time ago. Don't take anything seriously. :P >

Just A Little Scared You Love Me

I want to be friends,
I want to talk to you,
I don't want to turn aside,
I don't want to be rude.

REFRAIN:
I'm just a little scared that you love me,
And I know that I can't say the same.
I'm just a little scared that you love me,
If you do, 'just friends' ain't the same.
I'm not the sort who likes to break hearts,
And if you want more than I can give,
You'll refuse what little I've got.
Oh, no!
Love can tear friendship apart.
I'm just a little scared that you love me,
And I know that I can't say the same.

I want to be there,
When you are feelin' down,
I don't want to be cruel,
I don't want to give out.
REFRAIN

I want to be calm,
And I want to be fair,
I don't want to hesitate,
I'm just a little scared.
REFRAIN

The Night The Tears Stopped Coming

< Eh, this isn't exactly a song I guess, but I had to write it down, and this seemed like the place it belonged. It's kind of... spooky? Well, not spooky... You'll see. But I like it; it's my weird "Edgar Allan Poe" personality, I guess. :) >

Someone who was no longer a child,
But not quite an adult,
Sat and stared at the stars,
On the night they realized,
The tears weren't coming anymore.
They thought,
"I could have died;
I could have died before half the people I know,
Were even born.
Do I care?
I don't care.
I just realized my world was made to crumble,
I just realized I don't care anymore.
What's to care about?
If  it doesn't get better,
It can only get worse,
And if it get's worse,
Than this is nothing to worry about."
The stars shone on their face,
But not tears;
That was the night the tears stopped coming.
It happened when a part in their chest,
Expanded like a balloon;
Too full, but so empty and hollow,
You couldn't empty it.
It wasn't their stomach,
Or their heart;
It was just an empty space,
And when that empty space expanded,
It pressed their heart and stomach,
And everything,
Up against their chest,
Squeezing them tight, tight, tight,
Trying to squeeze out the last tears,
But the tears had stopped coming.
So they looked at the stars,
Brushing hair out of their dry eyes,
And whispered, "I am..."
But they did not finish.
When the tears stop coming,
You are not the same person anymore;
When the tears stopped coming,
They did not know who they were.
It was a very hot night,
And it usually is.
Maybe the heat expands the hollow space,
Crushing your inner being and changing who you are,
And dries the tears away forever,
Or maybe not;
Maybe it's just a coincidence that the day you change forever,
Is the day you're sweating like a dog.
They didn't care either way,
And they slept under the stars,
On the hard ground,
Just to prove they didn't care anymore.
They didn't care, not really.
The tears had stopped coming.
 And even if they did care,
No one would ever know.
No one would know what the person under the stars was thinking.
Ever again.
That's what happens when the tears stop coming.

It Is You I Love After All

Sometimes I see a light go out in the sky,
And I can't help but wonder if it's you that had to die.
And every chance I get I light a candle in the wall,
'Cause it is you, it is you I love after all.

Sometimes life feels like a Paradise,
And there are other times when everybody cries,
And don't think that I'm the exception to these rules,
'Cause it is you, it is you I love after all.

There are days when I wonder why I sent you away,
And there are other days when I think I'll be okay,
But any reassuring thought is all for naught,
'Cause it is you, it is you I love after all.

Sometimes I wonder where you could be,
And I wish that I could somehow bring you back to me,
But the space between us is a cast, unending sea,
Between me and the one that I love.

Carry On

     < A little song I came up with while I was on vacation, because I was bored and haven't posted on  Sing Along Blogger since June. It could use some editing... but for now, just enjoy it the way it is!>

Sometimes life is tougher than just being in love,
And sometimes wanting to do the right thing isn't enough.
Sometimes what you think is right turns out to be wrong,
And sometimes you've got to wonder why life has to take so long.
But carry on, You carry on, Just carry on.

Sometimes your friends will leave you choking on their dust,
And sometimes you feel like you joints are full of rust.
Sometimes you just cry when you hear a certain song;
You think you're strong enough to hide it, but turn out to be wrong.
But carry on, You carry on, Just carry on.

Sometimes the world falls apart around you,
And pressures you into things you shouldn't do.
Sometimes you think there's plenty, then all of it is gone,
And sometimes you just don't want to carry on.
But carry on, You carry on, Just carry on.

Sometimes they'll pull you to the dance floor,
And you don't think you can take anymore.
Sometimes you'll end up disappointed,
And what you want's not what you wanted.
But carry on, You carry on, Just carry on.

Sometimes you just wish the race was done,
And sometimes you don't even care who won.
Sometimes you just want to hide,.
And sometimes you spill everything you bottled up inside.
But carry on, You carry on, Just carry on.

But carry on,
You carry on,
Just carry on.

Carry on...
Carry on...
Carry on....

Collin

< I was going to call this something else, but since I'd already used Collin, it was handy; the other name just wasn't right, and if a name doesn't just come to me, then I know I'm not going to be able to think of one. Consequently, I changed the song as well as the title. Just so you know, this has absolutely nothing to do with me, other than the fact that I wrote it.>

Lights out,
Despair hangs over me like a dark cloud.
Did you just call my name?
How could that be;
You said you'd never see me again.
I'm dreaming,
They're sweeping all our mem'ries from the street.
I'm having trouble falling asleep-
I wish you'd come and talk to me.
Collin!
You left me all alone!
Collin!
Now where will I go?
Collin,
Don't let the devil get my soul,
Even if there's  nowhere else for me to go.

Dancing,
I'm sure that we are dancing once again.
I was so scared;
I thought it was the last time I'd hold your hand.
Muddy boot prints,
From when you chased me down the hall.
Or am I just conjuring up proof,
Proof that you loved me at all?
Collin!
You left me all alone!
Collin!
Now where will I go?
Collin,
Don't let the devil get my soul,
Even if there's nowhere else for me to go.

Dark beer,
I've never been drunk before.
Are you really here, or am I just staring at the door?
Dusty books,
I haven't read them in a long time,
'Guess I thought I didn't need their stories anymore,
'Cause I was finally living mine!
Collin!
You left me all alone!
Collin!
Now where will I go?
Collin,
Don't let the devil get my soul,
Even if there's nowhere else for me to go.

Alarm clock,
Ringing in my ears,
And I thought,
You voice was the only sound that could bring me tears,
Young dancers,
Don't let them near me,
My heart's still yours-
I'm not really free!
Collin!
You left me all alone!
Collin!
Now where will I go?
Collin,
Don't let the devil get my soul,
Even if there's nowhere else for me to go.



How Do You Tell Somebody No?

< Don't ask me! I have no idea! No idea how you tell someone, and no idea what I'm talking about in this song, actually.>

REFRAIN:
How do you tell somebody no,
After they've already asked you twice?
How do you tell somebody no,
When they're the one making the sacrifice?
How can you refuse something,
When you're the one who feels like they know nothing?
I don't really know...
But somehow I told you no.

I wasn't really thinking about you at the time,
So when you walked in, it was really a surprise.
You asked if I was feeling better 'bout the other night;
I could tell you were still hurt just by looking at your eyes.
REFRAIN

How do you tell somebody no,
After they've already asked you twice?
How do you tell somebody mo,
When they're trying so hard to be nice?
I hadn't realized that you cared so,
Otherwise I might have started caring too.
Maybe next time it won't be as painful for you,
Already knowing my answer will be another no.

I suppose just one dance shouldn't be so hard,
I guess that saying yes might have been okay,
So why did I fell like it was going too far,
And why did I have to push you away?
REFRAIN

You're Still Crying

I thought you said you were gone,
But I thought you were all along,
And even though,
I was all alone,
You picked up your phone,
And I wasn't expecting you too.
So why do you keep lying?
What is it that you're hiding?
What is it that I broke into,
And I wasn't even trying?
And you're still crying,
But you're the one who left me all alone.

I though you told me to forget,
So why is it your eyes are wet?
I'm doing fine,
Till you cut the line,
And I don't drink wine,
But you're drunker than the drunker ought to.
So why do you keep lying?
What is it that you're hiding?
What is it that I broke into,
And I wasn't even trying?
And you're still crying,
But you're the one who left me all alone.

You're not apologizing,
And we're not even fighting,
But then what,
Have you got,
To be upset about?
You claim you've got no regrets,
But I don't really believe that.
I know the kind of tears you're crying.
So why are you lying?
What is it that you're hiding?
What is it that I broke into,
And I wasn't even trying?
And you're still crying,
But you're the one who left me all alone.

"I've moved on long ago now,
Just thought you ought to know,
There's someone new,
And she's not you,
I'm over you,"
But you don't seem to believe yourself.
So why are you lying?
What is it that you're hiding?
What is it that I broke into,
And I wasn't even trying?
And you're' still crying,
But you're the one who left me all alone.

I could live without you, it's true,
But if you wanted I'd go running back to you.
You said that,
It's over,
But your heart's still stuck,
On forever.
So why are you lying?
What is it that you're hiding?
What is it that I broke into,
And I wasn't even trying?
And you're still crying,
But you're the one who left me all alone


< Haha, actually, now that I think about it, the only reason I posted this is because I like the refrain. X)>

Did You?

You never really thought about it,
Did you?
Well, how could you?
You never really thought about it when you were asking,
All about things,
I told you,
I didn't want to talk about.
I bet it never crossed your mind.
I know it never crossed mine...
You never really thought about it,
Did you?
Well, how could you?
'Bout what  you'd do if you lost the better half of you.
It never really crossed my mind,
That you'd attempt something so near suicide,
It just didn't seem like something that you'd do.
How could you?

Never Ever Change

Don't change on me,
The world is so different already.
I need someplace steady,
To set my feet.
Don't change just yet,
I'm not ready forget,
The way things are right now.
Oh, it's sweet Spring time,
Sipping pink lemonade,
And a friend in the crowd,
Stands up just to say,
"Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change,
Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change."

Don't change on me,
What's happened to your personality?
I need someone steady,
To hold my hand.
Don't change just yet,
Or we'll begin to forget,
The people we are now.
Oh, it's sweet spring time,
Sipping pink lemonade,
And a friend in the crow,
Stands up just to say,
"Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change,
Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change!"

Don't change on me,
Things have grown so different already,
I need something steady,
To lean upon.
Don't change just yet,
There's too much you might forget,
That's precious to you now.
Oh, and it's sweet spring time,
Sipping pink lemonade,
And a friend in the crowd,
Stands up just to say,
"Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change,
Ooooh,
All I want is to never ever change,
All I want is to never ever change.
I want to never ever change."
Never ever change,
Never ever change,
Never ever change.

I'll Try It

I think I could be happy,
If I wanted to.
I'll try it,
I'll try it,
I'll try it, won't you?
I think I could be happy,
I'll try it, won't you?

I think that I could smile,
If I wanted to.
I'll try it,
I'll try it,
I'll try it, won't you?
I think that I could smile,
I'll try it, won't you?

I think that I could laugh,
If I wanted to.
I'll try it,
I'll try it,
I'll try it, won't you?
I think that I could smile,
I'll try it, won't you?

I think that I could join the fun,
If I wanted to.
I'll try it,
I'll try it,
I'll try it, won't you?
I think that I could join the fun,
I'll try it, won't you?

I think that I could dance and sing,
I think that I might have a dream,
I think that I could talk to you,
I'll try it,
I'll try it,
I'll try it, won't you?

Sad Song

  Baby, when you need a sad song to sing,
You can sing me,
When you need a sad song to play,
Baby, you can play me.

ANNOYING SONG

< Mostly, I was washing dishes, and I was bored. I probably wouldn't post this, except that the first lines contain bacon and cheesecake. X) >

Cheesecake,
(BACON!) Cheesecake,
(BACON!) Cheesecake,
(Oooooh....)
(Yeah,) I know you love this song,
Even though it's too annoying and long,
(Ooooh...)
(Yeah!) I know you love this song,
Even though it's too annoying and long.
(Ring....Ring....Ring....)
I think you're phone is ringing,
You'd better answer it,
It might be your mother.
(Oh no....)
(Oh no....)
(Oh...) It's jsut a solicitor,
Why on earth aren't you on the no-call list?

Oh, Melaney!

She was seventeen,
She didn't like anything,
The rest of us did.
Funny thing,
She was allergic to chocolate,
But was never tempted to try it,
Anyway.
And oh, Melaney,
We were the worst teasers,
And it never ceases to sting.
Oh, Melaney,
You're the most beautiful memory,
Melaney,
She didn't talk about boys,
Like the rest of us did,
And when the dance started,
She's always the one who hid.
If only she could see,
All of our regrets;
She has so many more friends,
Than she did.
Oh, Melaney,
You're the most beautiful memory.
Oh, Melaney,
Her Savior set her free,
Sooner than we expected.
And for awhile,
Everyone tried to be just like her,
Before they forgot her altogether.
No one understands,
Why my eyes are still wet,
I must be mad,
She was just another kid,
Another lonely soul,
Another lost and quiet ghost.
"Man," I  "Gotta let her go!"
But, oh Melaney!
You're the most beautiful memory;
You reminded me,
Of something I never plan to forget.
Oh, Melaney,
Melaney,
Melaney.

WORST SONG EVER

< Don't try telling me you like this, cause I'll know you're lying! You're lucky I changed line four.It took me forever to think of a good word that rhymed with tree.>

Three little pigs,
Sitting in a tree;
One smelled like bacon,
The other smelled like- tea.
One had a flower,
Tucked behind it's ear.
That's the end of the song,
So let's all give a cheer!

I'm Not Happy Here Anymore

< I thought I already posted this... :/  Oh, I thought about changing that line about 'keep your distance, won't you boy', but then the next line wouldn't have rhymed. :P I guess this song is especially fitting since everyone's moving away now...>

I'm all alone by the light of the moon,
And I'm happy for it to be that way,
I know that you'll be coming here soon,
But I don't have plans to stay.
'Cause I'm not happy here anymore,
I'm gonna fly right out the door,
I've grown my wings; it's time to soar,
I'm goin' away,
Have a lovely stay,
'Cause I'm not happy here anymore.
Someday we're gonna die,
Dont'cha know?
It's as good a time as any to say, "Goodbye,
I've gotta go."
'Cause I'm not happy here anymore.
If you call I won't answer the phone,
I don't wanna hear from you,
Right now I jsut need to be alone,
And there's nothing you can do.
Knock as loud as you want; I'm not coming to the  door,
And I'm not happy here anymore.
Just keep your distance, won't ya' boy?
You're staying here gives me no joy.
I won't stay, I won't play, go away,
'Cause I'm not happy here anymore.
No, I'm not happy here anymore,
This place brings me no cheer,
And I'm not happy here anymore.

Hey, Judith

< Sorry, this is nothing like Hey Jude, but I had to do it. In honor of the little guy! :) >

Hey, Judith,
Long time no see.
How are you lately?
Hey, Judith,
Why'd you turn away?
You must remember me.
Fifteen,
Iced Tea,
It was only last spring.
Hey, Judith,
I'm not asking you to stay,
If you don't, that's okay,
I just want you to explain.
Hey, Judith,
Who are your new friends?
I think I remember them,
The Queen Bees,
Who wouldn't let you be;
\You must not be yourself.
Hey, Judith,
Give it a rest,
Stop trying to be the best,
There's no one to impress.
Hey, Judith,
Who do you think you are?
You know you aren't a star,
I'm warning you,
Anything you do that way is gonna hurt.
Hey, Judith,
Listen to me;
We were best friends at fifteen,
Does it have to end so early?
I haven't changed, don't you worry,
If that's why you're afraid.
Hey, Judith,
I see it in your eyes,
Don't try to disguise the pain,
Or hide the tears that fall like rain.
Who hurt you?
Please tell me,
That it couldn't be a guy who came between us.
Hey, Judith,
What's all this fuss about?
Surely by the morning you'll come around.
Oh, Judith,
You're walking away,
But I'm not ready to say goodbye,
One of us is sure to die from this.
Hey, 
Goodbye,
Goodbye,
My love Judith.

Dosey-Doe

< All of you who like dancing will appreciate this. Well, probably you will, anyway.>

REFRAIN:
When the world is an oyster,
It's so hard to breathe,
And when the doors are all locked,
Then it's so hard to leave.
When you don't know,
You can only guess,And when we open the cupboards,
We'll see what is left.
So dosey-doe,
And dosey-doe,
And dosey-doe again.
Dosey-doe Maxi,
And dosey-doe Alex,
And when we get dizzy,
We can't stop to rest.

Things much less subtle,
Desire slier tongues,
Or if they can't fight,
They'll have to run.
You leave people to die,
When you're helpless to save,
But you pray for the strength,
Once you reach the nave.
REFRAIN

The things most fragile,
Are those you can't touch,
Like colors and feelings,
Which taste like fairy-rust.
Monsters are creeping,
While your children sleep,
But they won't attack,
If you don't make a peep.
REFRAIN

Dark things,
Light things,
The living,
And ghosts.
When we are ended,
Then we will see;
Who did you waste,
Your love on the most?
REFRAIN
So dosey-doe,
And dosey doe,
And dosey-doe again.
So dosey-doe,
And dosey-doe,
And dosey-doe,
The End.
REFRAIN

 

Summer Farewell Song

< This is the poem I wrote two years ago for the Talent Show. Why I'm posting it now and didn't post it a long time ago, I don't know...>

Oh, Summer sweet, though you must end,
And let your leaves now fall,
And all your birds must fly away-
Oh, goodbye! Goodbye all!
You let us run with sweaters off,
And shed our shoes for you,
Though we will miss you greatly soon,
Winter's always lovely, too.
I can not wait 'till you return,
But tears I shed are crazed,
For I know that I shall wait for you,
And by snowflakes all are amazed.
When bird song comes again to me,
With joy again I'll sing,
But 'till your time I'll rest content,
And admire this lovely thing.

There Was Never A Bird

< Short and Sweet. :) Actaully, I planned to add to this sometime, but will probably never get around to it. :P>

There was never a bird,
With wings like yours, no,
And there was never a bird,
With such a sweet, sweet voice.
There was never a bird,
As selfless as you, no,
There was never a bird like you.

I Don't Know When I Broke

< Maybe some what depressing, but hey, I liked the picture of the china doll. :) >

REFRAIN:
And I don't know,
I don't know,
When I broke.
And I look back,
I look back,
At the letters I wrote,
And wonder,
How many hold my lies?
How many people have come,
To despise me?

I don't know,
I don't know,
What to do anymore.
I don't know,
I don't know,
What I want anymore.
Looking back I wonder,
How did I make it this far?
And why am I,
How I'm still thriving?
REFRAIN

And I don't know,
I don't know,
Why you lvoe me.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
Why you can't see,
I'm just a china doll,
After all,
This smiles just painted here,
And I'm this close to cracking.
REFRAIN

I don't know,
I don't know,
Maybe I'm a little too dramatic.
I don't know,
I don't know,
Why I've got to panic,
Everytime you try to be nice.
Maybe there's pills I should take for the pain,
But more than the pain, what really kills,
Is feeling fake.
REFRAIN

And I don't know,
I don't know,
When I broke.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
How many letters I wrote,
And how many I am watching,
Going up in smoke.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
When I broke.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
How long it takes you to realize,
I'm the one you should despise.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
When I broke.
And I don't know,
I don't know,
How many lies that I have told,
The price that's on my sould.
I don't know,
I don't know,
I don't know,
I don't know,
When I broke.

Enigma of the Doors

< I was originally going to call this Enigma, but then I decided to change it, just in case I came up with more enigmas. If you think you figure out the answer, tell me, because I don't know what it is. XD... I also meant to show it to Naina Bird yesterday, but I forgot. :P>

One door is black,
One door is white,
One door is covered,
In the stars of night.
Behind one is a beast,
Behind one is a child,
Behind one is the key,
To taming the wild.
The beast is your friend,
The child a beast,
The key is the key,
To your release.
You're destined to choose,
That which you don't want,
But you won't want to turn back,
And if you do, you can't.
If you choose the beast,
He'll show you the way.
If you choose the child,
She'll lead you astray.
If you choose the key,
You'll never know,
What would have happened,
If you chose not to go.
You can choose not to to,
Through any door;
You can choose to wake up,
Without knowing more;
You can choose to give in,
You can choose to ignore,
The pleading for help,
You can't help but hear;
But if you choose to wakt up,
It may still be in your ear.
But who needs your help-
Key, beast, or child?
And if you choose to help,
Will you ever escape the wild?
Then here is a clue,
To help you on your way;
One needs your help,
But will not show it,
One pretends to need help,
And may receive it,
But if you give it,
You shall not leave it.
The one whop needs it,
Should not receive it.
But the one who does not,
Needs something different;
You need something, too,
Though you don't know it yet,
But if you help the wrong one,
What shall you get?
From one you shall get what you need,
But don't want,
From one you shall get what you want,
But don't need,
From the other you'll get only disaster,
But help someone else on the way.

A Dream Song

I am feeling all alone,
And I wish you were here with me,
'Cause you make me happy.
And I can't say anything,
Until you set me free,
'Cause I am broken.
And everyone is watching,
Expecting something great,
But all I can do,
Is play my piano too loud,
And try my best to make you proud.
And it never really worked that way,
But who am I to say,
If that's what you want,
Is to be dissapointed,
You couldn't have picked someone better.
And I guess all I can say,
At the end of the day,
Is we deliver...
We deliver...
'Cause I deliver broken feelings all the time.
