I’m here without you
Live free with no regret
I give up
Take over me
Dreams
Inside of me
You’ll only fake it
cupid’s games
Your body cold
if i die… . i will love you in death as much as i did in life
losing my mind
dark
Have you forgotten me
I… baby… . i… . i… . . . baby… . I’m lost
we never got to say goodbye
Time never sleeps
lonely is just a word
Unspoken words
Devil is cupid in disguise
Read me like a book
Can’t sleep… my dreams are haunting me
No words
Midnight
Kill me smooth… .
I gave you every bit of me… . left me in pieces
You cry… i cry… no one cries… . if i die
Dear heaven
R.I.P
Hours of hours… all supposed to be ours
Play with fire
Heart beat won’t let me sleep
Just leave me lonely
Don’t try to save me… . baby left me crazy
Once upon a time… .
Frozen rain drops… . drip on the inside
Only in my mind
Candles cry its wax filled tears
Soft clouds make these sheets… . in my mind it repeats and repeats
Empty… . is what my arms hold
If i were the night… I’d keep you warm and hold you tight
Lost and found
These eyes can’t see through the tears that i bleed…
Only to be a memory
Smile for me… just smile for me… and watch that moon shine… with souls so fre
Thorns of a rose…
Dreams
I miss you
Heart skips a beat
Heart of stone
And it burns… . And burns
Heartless heart that kills me.
Soulless soul
Tear filled eyes
I’ve been alone all along
Won’t look down
Heartless heartbreak
I should have walked past you… the first time i met you
I’m sorry
I can do anything
I cant pretend….like we never happened
Dont forget me
Even my mind left me
Puzzled pieces
I’m here without you
Quiet night, under the stars i lay,..wondering… . where are you now… . where are you babe… . we went our seperate ways… . i acted like i was ok… on the inside i was on my knees… begging heaven please… . begging heaven please… . i held back my tears… acted like i was ok… . i should have stopped you right there… . i should have told you how i feel… . i need you here… . my heart was crying even though my eyes never shed a tear
dark i can’t see the light… . night i cant seem to sleep… . i seen it pass through the sky… . its like a shooting star shooting through my heart… . miles and miles… . miles apart… . take this smile with you… . baby take my heart.
i dream about you… . it feels so real… . i close my eyes to see you here, i tell you words that you will never hear… . i kiss you babe, kisses you will never feel… . i tell you i miss you… . but in my dreams… . my dreams aren’t real… . all this happens when I’m asleep… . i should have told you how i feel as i seen you leave… . but all i seen… . was you disappear
Live free with no regret
slip through my fingertips… . trip… . fall… get back… . highest mountain… climb… . steepest cliff… jump… . music… push me… . you can never kill me… . dreams live within me… . this ambition keeps building… . it’s like a fire in me, this desire never leaves me… . no one can stop this… . in my head i can see it happening… . you can tell me I’ll never make it, smile in my face i can see how much you fake it… . I’ll never give up this dream, you can try to bury my feet, hold me down i will never show an ounce of defeat… . i love it when haters hate me… . i feel sorry for these people that don’t chase a dream… . fate… this state of mind… stay… . i fight through time even if time was late… . kill me but this dream lives in me… . like a baby… i raised it… .
live free with no regret… . never look back… . isn’t that what we said… . and now it’s a headache eating at my head… . never leave me, believe me… . excuses, lose me… . i kill my own self, i abuse me… .
if i would have known my soul would hurt this much i would have never let my heart go… . empty thoughts with death chasing me on the inside… . i take a second look at myself so that would make it twice right… . i poke my eyes out so that even in my dreams, i wouldn’t see you here with me… . i… . cry so loud i wake my sleep in the middle of the darkest dream I’ve ever dreamed… . set myself on fire so i can feel the burn of love’s own desire that I’ve desired… . i would live free with no regret… . to take back regret i would have to take back all the things that I’ve just said… .
I give up
She tries her best to figure out what goes on outside… . baby please… you know I hate it when you cry… . she holds my hand and says… there is no longer a you and i… forever is no more but please don’t say goodbye
It hurts inside… . baby girl please don’t cry… . We hold each other… . if only time could stop still somehow… . we drift apart… . our memories left as thoughts, baby please don’t cry… . she says… . look me in the eyes… . as you say goodbye
we’ve had our run, both you and i… . i love you babe
. . . stop right there, don’t tell no lies… . I’m tired of these stupid fights, staying up all night… . all your empty lies… . we make up, laugh smile then we fight… . i
