Pupil

WARNING: THIS SONG IS VERY MELANCHOLY, BECAUSE IT IS A SPOOF OFF OF A VERY MELANCHOLY SONG!!!

I'd give forever to see you,
but don't want you to see me right now.
You're the angel from Heaven that I'll never be,
But I just wanna go home right now.

And all I can hear is your movement,
As if I've been deaf all my life.
And sooner or later it's over,
I just can't understand you tonight.

And I don't wnat my friends to see me,
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand.
When ev'rything's made to be broken,
I'm not sure that I like who I am.

And I can't fight the tears that ain't coming,
Or distinguish the truth from my lies,
'Cause I've lived too long in the movies,
And I'd bleed just to know I'm alive.

And I don't want my friends to see me,
'Cause I don't think they'd understand.
When ev'rything's made to be broken,
I'm not sure that I like who I am.

I don't want my fam'ly to see me,
Because not even I understand.
when ev'ryithing's made to be broken.
I wish somebody knew who I am.

I don't want my fam'ly to see me,
Because not even I understand.
When ev'rything's made to be broken,
I wish somebody knew who I am.

I hope somebody knows who I am;
No, I don't really know who I am.
I hope somebody knows who I am;
No, I don't really know who I am.

Take Me Home

 < Semi-spoken;  lead singer >
It's okay to be scared once in awhile,
But I'd like to remember how to smile...
< Sung >
Take me home now, Take me home tonight,
Take me home now, And don't take me away again. <add a voice>
Take me home now, Take me home tonight,
Take me home now, And don't take me away again.

ALL VOICES SING:
Take me home now, Take me home tonight,
Take me home now, And don't take me away again.
I've waited too long for you,
Now I've forgotten how to make it on my own.
I've waited too long for you,
Now I can't do this by myself.
I still have two feet,
But I can't remember how to stand on them.
My heart still has beats,
But just 'cause I can't quiet them.
Take me home now, So I can remember myself.
Take me home now, I'm so tired of leaving.
Take me home now, I'm not leaning on you anymore,
At least not for now.
I'm so tired of being scared,
I'm so tired of crying,
I need to go home and sleep...< Minus one voice >
I've waited too long for you,
You're not what I expected,
But I've waited too long for you,
To lose you now... < Lead singer only >
Can I see you in the morning...?
In the morning...
But not now...
Don't sweep me off my feet,
I must remember how to use them.
Now...
Now...
Take me home now....
While I'm still living...



No Song

Take it slow and easy,
Little Miss NoOne,
There's a star waiting for you,
Far away from NoWhere.
If you find it,
It will take you away;
That's what you want,
Isn't it?
You said,
No one's happy here,
And I want to get away.

< This is what I wrote when I was supposed to be doing chemistry... Not much of a song, but hey, it was more interesting at the time. ;) >

Queen of the Gnats

NOTE: Oh, yeah, sorry, I ran out of time yesterday and didn't get to any of my new songs until today. All of the songs I'm posting today are from within the last week or so. :)

Gnats, Gnats, everywhere!
In my ears and in my hair!
Gnats, Gnats, please go away!
I just want one gnat-less day!

Waiting For A Dream

You don't understand why you can't have this dance,
Why everyone's on the floor but me and you,
Well, it isn't your fault, an' it's okay if you leave,
I'm just waiting for a dream come true.

REFRAIN
Yeah, I'm waiting for a dream come true,
That doesn't mean I'm not in love with you,
It just means dancing in circles puts me to sleep,
And I'm staying up for a dream come true.

You're dancing with my friends but keep looking my way,
I can see you're not happy about doing this,
But so long as they're happy, I'm happy, too,
So don't cry, just let me do what I wish.
REFRAIN

Don't think I won't dance with you 'cause I'm dancing with the devil,
If I won't dance with and angel, how could I dance with him?
But the world is already revolving enough to make me dizzy,
And if I fall I'll drown, 'cause I can't swim.
REFRAIN

Pictures of You

The person on the wall may look like me,
Well, you're close, at least it's who I wanna be,
But if we're gonna tell the truth,
They're all pictures of you.

REFRAIN
Yeah, they're pictures of you,
And who you make me,
The best things I do,
Aren't really me.
Whenever I do something worth a photo or two,
They're really just pictures of you.

That's from my graduation a couple years ago,
And there's when I won a trophy or so,
There's a picture from helping the neighbors with work they couldn't do,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

That's from the surgery I never wanted,
But you convinced me that I needed,
And that's me on our first date- wait, that's not true;
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

There's me holding a wedding boquet,
And there, holding our first baby.
Oh, and me standing with you by your friend's grave,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

There I held you when you cried that you 'weren't good enough,'
Just 'cause life had been treating you rough.
Well, all the things I said that made you want to live it through,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

Union

All these days,
And all these nights,
Things remain,
that we wish we could forget,
For all time.

All these days,
And all these times,
We have something,
In common,
One single burden.

We are people,
We're all suffering,
Somehow, Sometimes,
We are people,
We're all suffering,
And we all feel...
Something...
We are people together,
We are forever,
Forever, we suffer, until we're done...
We are people,
We're all suffering,
And we all feel...
Something...
For someone...
Someone we hate or love,
And we're all saved,
By Jesus Christ.

Thank You

REFRAIN ONLY

You see me through,
You carry on,
You know the truth, but say I'm wrong.
Thanks for all the things you never say or do.
Thanks so much for loving me more than you love you.

Country Baby

NOTE: Never mind. Enjoy the song.

Baby, Baby,
Yeah, she's just a country baby,
Maybe you know the feeling:
You just can't take anymore,
You can't do it on you own.
Baby, Baby,
Yeah, she's just a city baby,
Maybe you can understand:
Every day feels like more than you can take,
And you just can't do it on your own.
Yeah, yeah, Baby, baby,
Yeah, yeah, Baby Girl,
You may be all grown up on the inside,
But you're still just a baby in there,
And you don't understand, but you care,
Yeah, you're just like the baby,
Baby,
Baby Girl.

You May Never Know

You may never know what you mean to me,
When you are around, I feel so happy.
You may never know what you mean to me,
But I've just got to walt away and let it be.
You may never know what you mean to me,
But someone like you and I could never be.
I know, I have to let you go.
You may never know what you mean to me,
But I have noticed things that you could never see,
I can see you're happy to stay,
So long as things remain this way,
Just as soon as I change the story,
You're likely to abhor me.
You may never know what you mean to me,
But I've just got to walk away and let it be,
Because I'm so in love with you,
I could never tell you the truth,
It's impossible that we coul ever be,
So long as you're to be happy.
It's impossible, but I love you,
That's why I msut not say or do,
Anything, anymore, with you.
You may never know,
You may never know,
What you mean to me.


< Two Big Thumbs WAY DOWN. ACH! :P >

I Don't Want

REFRAIN
But I don't want to think about it,
I don't want it to sink in.
I don't want to remember,
And I don't want to do it again.
Yesterday is over,
I only want today.
Don't talk about forever,
Take your coat and go away.

Yesterday we pretended,
We pretended we were gonna run away.
We sat in the sun and smiled,
We smiled as the rain clouds rolled away.


< I originally had three verses for this, but the second and third were basically just because I thought I needed more verses. They stank, and I'll spare you from they're stinkiness. >

Every Day

Every day is just like the last,
You think I should be used to it by now.
But each day hurts more than the past,
And I really can't say how.


<Oh, yeah, PS, now that I've already written a bunch: Most of these are songs I wrote a long time ago, but never posted. Some of them are new, but not many. >

Wandering Too Long

I've been wandering too long,
Now it's time to go home,
I knew all along,
I just didn't want to give up hope.
So hold my hand and lead the way,
'Cause I've forgotten everything that meant anything to me.
Light me a lantern so I don't get lost,
'Cause I think that I'm ready to let go of the past.
Remind me of all the things I tried to forget,
I thought I'd be smiling, but my eyes are just wet.
Tell me a story without any love,
Where everyone's happy in the end.
It won't be true, 'cause if I can rest my head on your arm,
No happier time I ever did spend.

Different Once More

We were friends forever for one week,
Just a small peek,
At what happiness is.
And then you walked away,
To stay,
And I'm drowining in guilt again.
Why'd you have to come and tell e,
I was everything,
To you,
Then walk away and tell me,
I was nothing,
What do you want me to do?

You Don't Really Know

Now you know I'm feeling kinda scared,
By what you think I mean,
That doesn't mean that I'll go back,
And change a single thing.
I'll just keep on smiling,
And nod my silly head,
'Cause all will be revealed when the sun is setting red.



< Okay, so I changed a couple lines and left out the un-finished refrain. If you think this stinks, you should have seen it before! >

You Can't Give The Mem'ries Away

If there's one thing that I've learned from burning these boquets,
It's that you can't give the mem'ries away.
No, like a rumor you can spread it,
Or try and keep it secret,
You can even forget for a day.
But I don't care what they say,
No matter what you do,
You can't give the mem'ries away.
