Dear Me

( I do not own the picture at the end of this post. If it's yours and you don't want it hear, please let me know. Thanks! Also, how well do you think the pictures match the songs they're posted with? Go to the post on Google+ and rate the combinations in the comments!)

Dear me,

I know you think that you're broken,

But please try to open,

Your heart again.

Dear me,

You can see that he's trying,

I don't think he's lying;

He's in love with you.

Dear me,

Just crawl out of your hole;

You need someone to hold

 You tight and strong.

Dear me,

He would do you some good,

If only you would,

Let him come in.

Dear me,

You need to stop crying;

It's time you were trying,

To let go of the past.

Stay

(Someone remind me- did I already post this??? :P)

I should've known better than to let myself go like that,

I should've tried harder to keep my heart in check.

But I never saw it coming,

So I never started running,

And now you've got me going,

 Head over heels insane.

I know I'm gonna regret this

At the end of the day,

But for right now,

All I want is for you to stay.

Stay, stay, love, just stay,

Stay, stay, love, just stay,

Stay, just stay with me.

I should've known better than to tell you my whole name;

Should've tried harder to avoid making more pain.

But I never stop for thinking,

I jump right in without blinking;

You know that this is how

I drive everyone insane;

It always comes back to haunt me

At the end of the day.

Oh, but right now, all I want is for you to stay.

Stay, stay, love, just stay,

Stay, stay, love, just stay,

Stay, just stay with me.

Someone Else's Shoes

You don't scare me,

And I don't scare you;

We're at a stale-mate.

I don't understand,

And you can't comprehend,

So we both underestimate.

REFRAIN:

'Cause I've never walked in,

You've never run in,

Someone else's shoes.

I can't judge you,

And you can't judge me,

'Cause we haven't got a clue,

What the others been through,

What the others been through,

Been through, Been through.

Things that scare me,

All turn out to be,

Nothing real at all.

But I don't like you,

And you don't like me,

So we never make time to call.

REFRAIN

Merrily (Originally called something else that I'm not telling you but you can probably guess)

This is a song of Half-Truths. I'll leave it to you to try to sort them all out and get it terribly wrong. :)

Merrily, Merrily,

I've reached a dead end,

Once again, once again,

I'm in need of a friend.

I think I'm falling for someone,

But not sure who.

Merrily, Merrily,

I'd do it again,

Just to see, just to see,

Where it would lead,

And hoping it could be,

Back to you.

Oh, but I know that I'm the wrong one;

Even when we've had some fun, it's true-

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

For you.

Merrily, Merrily,

It's an alias, my friend,

That I use, that I use,

Just so I can send,

All the songs that I meant,

Just for you.

Merrily, Merrily,

A false identity,

It fits me, it fits me,

It fits to a tee,

Since my world is less real than fake,

What can I do?

Oh, but I know that I'm the wrong one,

Even when we've had some fun it's true-

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

For you.

Merrily, Merrily,

Where will I go?

Seems to me, seems to me,

It's the end of the road;

My heart just can't see,

Past you.

Merrily, Merrily,

Silly singing to me;

What a tune! What a tune!

I should stop worrying; nothing's wrong,

But things I can't change,

If I want to.

Oh, but I know that I'm the wrong one,

Even when we've had some fun, it's true-

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

For you.

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

I'm the wrong one, quite the wrong one,

For you.

In My Dreams

In my dreams,

I can do anything,

And the world

Is anything I want.

In my dreams

My life is perfect;

That world is

My favorite haunt.

In my dreams

I'm never all alone,

Because each night

In my dreams,

I dream you coming Home.

Memories... (Again)

( I never finished the final verse, so here's the first verse and the first two lines of the last verse. Let me know if creativity strikes you, and you have some ideas for finishing the final verse! :))

Memories in black and white,

I'm flicking on the night light,

Since we faded away.

You told me it would be alright,

But I lie awake at night,

'Cause I will never be okay,

Again.

I just wanna be okay,

Again.

Scowl at monsters in the mirror;

Want you to get me out of here,

So Alone

Remember when I was still,

Just your pretty little girl,

And everything that I knew,

Was less than half of this big world.

Now that I'm older,

I'm out here on my own,

Feeling lost and scared,

'Cause I've never been so alone.

So alone, So alone.

Just another phone call,

Another letter in the box.

Faceless words mask your absence*;

They sneak in the room like a fox.

Now that I live here,

I don't know why I'm here;

I don't belong here;

All of a sudden I'm alone.

So alone, So alone.

*fake your presence (?)

"I'm Just a Little Black Rain Cloud" spoof

I'm just a small avocado,

Sitting on tables at parties.

 I'm just a small avacado,

Pay no attention to little me.

Everyone knows avocados,

 Are used to make guacamole,

I'm willing and able,

To sit on your table,

Next to the chips and the dip.

Leaning Pisa and Everest

(Naina-Bird, you'll get this one. ;))

They were two tall fellows,

Taller than the rest;

I called one Leaning Pisa,

And the other Everest.

One was just my brother,

The other barely a friend,

But hoping for a different

Point of view,

They were a God-send.

One had something against me,

And Everest I barely knew,

But my friends asked me to

Meet him,

So that's what I'm going

To do.

Young And Foolish

I'm think of you

On my wedding day,

As a bridesmaid

Does my hair.

I once thought

I'd never forget you;

It turns out I was right,

But I don't care.

For back when you're

 Young and foolish,

And you're first learning

How to love,

Sometimes caring about someone

Isn't needing them enough.

Walking down the aisle,

Smiling at the groom,

I remember

When I thought

He'd be you.

I no longer love you,

If I ever did;

Though you're the one who left,

Things turned out as they ought.

For back when you're

Young and Foolish,

And you're first learning

How to love,

Sometimes caring about someone

Isn't needing them enough.

Hey Boy

( Yeah, I know, the first thing that probably popped into your head was that country song that's been on the radio, "Hey Girl." This song is completely different; I didn't even get the idea from that one. To be honest, I don't really like the title, but if you can come up with something better, well, I'd like to see! )

Hey boy,

If I was the most

Beautiful girl

In the world,

Would you

Talk to me more,

And not just stare

Awkwardly at

Your shoes;

If I was the most

Beautiful girl

In the world?

Hey boy,

If I was the 

Happiest girl

In the world,

I'd buy

Everyone roses,

Even if it took

All my money,

And I'd walk right

Up to you and talk

And not be scared;

If I was the

Happiest girl

In the world.

Hey boy,

If I was the

Strongest girl

In the world,

I wouldn't be

Sitting here

And crying

With the phone

Still in my hand,

Wishing I had

Only dreamed

Alle the words

You said;

If I was the

Strongest girl

In the world.

Hey boy,

If I was the

Kindest girl

In the world,

I'd move on and

Let you move on too;

I'd let you go

To someone else,

And try to find

Someone new.*

If I was the

Kindest girl

In the world.

But I'm not,

But I'm not,

But I'm not,

But I'm not.

And so even though

This is* killing me,

Just know

I understand.

* These aren't the words I had originally; I edited them when I posted the song. Let me know if you think something else would fit better! :)

Love (Sorry)

( I have new songs to post! Don't forget to vote for the SAB Song of the Month; the page has been updated! :D)

I would apologize,

If I knew what I did wrong,

But all I can recall,

Is us getting along,

And love doesn't seem like something,

I should say sorry for.

All I did was shield you,

When death came up to your door.

I don't think that's something,

Worth getting angry for,

And love doesn't seem like something,

I should say sorry for.

My mama always said,

Love meant taking tears and pain,

Not just a cute couple,

Romancing in the rain;

She said that love isn't something,

I should say sorry for.

Mama said to give love,

Even if I'm given hate;

 Give my life for someone,

If that should be my fate.

She said that love isn't something,

I should say sorry for.

Love can never hurt you,

My love seeks only to give;

Why are you so angry,

I wanted you to live?

My love doesn't seem like something,

I should say sorry for.

When I see you smiling,

I see what I have to lose,

So please, love, don't blame me,

If I die to save you.

My love doesn't seem like something,

I should say sorry for.

Here, now take my locket;

Say you'll keep it by your heart,

And you will remember,

What love is when we part.

My love doesn't seem like something,

I should say sorry for.
