Don't Be Sorry

So you can't come;

It's okay.

Sometimes things just 

Go that way.

So you were wrong;

Don't worry.

You can't know

Everything.

REFRAIN:

Don't be sorry;

Don't you cry.

It's enough

That you tried.

I love you,

And that won't change.

It's not your fault

Things worked out this way.

We make mistakes;

It's okay.

You aren't the first

To be afraid.

You have to leave;

Then you can go.

I won't be mad;

You aren't alone.

REFRAIN

So what, I'm hurt;

So are you.

None of your guilt

Can change the truth.

Don't be sorry;

I'm not mad.

I'm sorry, too,

That you feel like that.

The Siren's Tale

I thought that I love him,

The I thought that I loved you,

Now I think that I'm in love

With someone else.

I keep making mistakes,

And I feel afraid

Of myself.

REFRAIN

I keep calling them in,

But then I throw them back

In the sea again;

I'm afraid to keep on trying.

I feel like love is dying

At my hands.

I've given up on love,
But I long for it so much
That I keep jumping back in
With someone else.
I warn them about me,
But they can never see;
Their guard's down.
REFRAIN

I should hurt for them;
Spare anyone else the pain.
I think that they're all liars
Who say love's a game.
All this searching's no fun,
And it isn't easy...
I'm sorry...

The Last Thing I Ever Said Was Goodbye

(I don't remember if I already had any lyrics in mind, but I think this portrays the basic idea of what I wanted to say with this song...)

You're gone now, 

So far away, 

And I'll never see you again. 

I said goodbye; 

I didn't know. 

I couldn't find the words 

To let you go. 

I'm sorry, so sorry;  

I wish I'd known what to say, 

Some meaningful words 

Before I sent you away. 

REFRAIN

The last thing I ever said was goodbye;

The last thing I ever said was goodbye.

No I love you,

No remember to write;

I would have said more,

But nothing felt right.

I'm sorry, so sorry;

The last thing I ever said was goodbye.

You're up there, 

Somewhere, 

Somewhere that I can't see. 

I never thought- 

I didn't think- 

Anything could take you from me. 

I let you leave 

With only that; 

No 'love you more'; 

No 'please come back.' 

And now you're gone... 

REFRAIN

I write you letters 

That I don't send; 

I let down someone

That I called my friend. 

My mistake; 

Mine is the blame. 

Mine the regret; 

Mine is the shame. 

I can't look back without shedding tears; 

Without you here, how will I get through 

The coming years? 

REFRAIN

Song Of The Day

(I have no idea what I originally had in mind for this title, so I'm just making it up as I go along... :P)

I haven't been sleeping lately;

I've been too busy dreaming lately. 

Dreaming or worrying or hoping; 

They're all the same thing. 

They're the song of the day; 

They're the song of the day. 

I haven't been eating lately; 

I've been too busy grieving lately. 

I've been grieving with a smile on my face. 

I don't know why; I don't know why.

I just can't cry anymore on the outside.

That's the song of the day; 

That's the song of the day. 

REFRAIN

So help me sing

Something else;

I'm breaking down,

I'm fading out.

I'm not scared to die;

I'm not scared to try.

I'm just afraid to be forgotten

Like I was never here;

I'm just afraid of losing

Everyone that I hold dear.

So what's the song of the day?

What's the song of the day?

I shake your hand, or I kiss your feet, 

But neither one feels right to me. 

They're both the same thing; 

Too close and too true, 

Too real and too new. 

They raise too many questions; 

I guess I just don't know how I feel. 

I'm not used to being close; I don't feel real. 

I don't know why; I don't know why. 

I just don't show affection on the outside. 

That's the song of the day;

That's the song of the day.

REFRAIN

I miss you; you know that I miss you, 

But I don't call, and I rarely write; 

I can't bare the goodbye, 

I can't bare the goodnight. 

That's the song of the day. 

I haven't been speaking lately; 

I guess I just don't know what to say. 

I'll spare you my words if I can spare you pain. 

But I don't know how; I don't know how. 

I feel like everything I do causes you pain. 

That's the song of the day;

That's the song of the day.
