Heading For The Horizon.

I don't know if this is coming as a surprise to you, but I'l looking for something new. All this talk of leaving has got me thinking that maybe, just maybe, it should be me on that train, on that plane, climbing into that taxi, heading for the horizon.

Can't Look Back.

You've done it again.
You've made me fall deeply in love with you
and you know I can't look back.

You hurt me,

so my revenge will be making sure you breathe me until your last breath.

G.O

You looked at me from across the room and all I could hear was the sound of my own heart beating. You smiled and I thought for sure I was dreaming.

Don't send me home to cry. I need to feel the pain.

We were on fire

and were ready to crash into the sun when you decided you weren't having any fun.

You had all of me and you wasted everything. Tell me why 'cause I don't understand.

I get so happy when I see you.

This midnight is endless as I dream of the first kiss and forget all about my misses, only focusing on the hits and how it would feel to kiss your lips.

I'm finding it hard to make a choice.

I don't know what I want and it seems everybody knows.

What did I do?

In my heart its raining because I've left everyone behind.
The sky is full of broken stars, unable to shine
because someone like me left them behind.

We could be so beautiful

I'll always see into you. Put your faith in me and see all that we could be.

J, where have you been?

Put your heart on the line and kiss me so we can begin to live happily ever after.

I'm That Girl

I'm that girl, the one you pushed right to the edge. I'm the one you left waiting on the street, the one willing to give you her heart.

Its not your fault.

Its not your fault that I can't trust anyone or anything. You came and rescued me and your eyes, they make me weak, but I still can't let you in.

Give me the recognition I deserve because you know I can't live through you or beneath you.

We shouldn't be alone tonight

but its too late to say we didn't know.
It hurts to hold back, I know you feel it too.
I'm drifting away into your eyes
and dreaming that this love will last.
You tell another little white lie and I've got people chasing me down but I've got a reason now to see it all go up in flames.

Whenever we're together I finally believe I belong.

The thought of you carries me away, it takes me to another place.

I wanna lose control. Don't come near me.

You'll just get in my way.

I feel chained down, please let me out.

Is this a dream or is this my lesson?

Just tell me!

Should we pretend the feelings don't exist because all I want is you beside me. I'm not afraid to lose it all so just tell me how you feel.

I'm tired of giving in and cleaning up all the messes you've put me in. You'll have to watch me leave and succeed without you.

Get Away From Here

I ran to you like water, like I forgot my own worth. I'm sick of wishing you were near. I don't know where I'm going but I know I have to get away from here.

I've waited long enough.

The stars are sparkling at night and I know this moment could last forever.

Leave it all Behind.

I know you've got something buried deep. We could just leave town and you could leave those thoughts behind.

I can't get past it. When will we know better?

Do you feel regret?

Never thought I could be so blind. My heart skips a beat as I learn the truth. Do you feel regret? All those wasted years flash by and I wonder what you think of me, but what's the point if our love is gone?

Piece by Piece

You can have my heart, you don't have to steal anymore. Put your hands on me and you can have me piece by piece.
I'm not much better without you.
Now all I have is time and there's no way out.
I miss you.

Tonight I'm weak, I can't sleep.

I used to think I was all you would need but you kicked me aside and I know there's no room for me.

Jeff

Even if it kills me I'll make you realize that I'm yours for the taking. All I want is to fall into your arms and stay there forever, trying to find our way through this crazy world.
I wish I could unremember you. Then, maybe I'd get some sleep.

more and more I find myself longing for those carefree times, but I don't like to reminisce like this

Maybe one day

we can be together.
Let the scene unfold before you.
It seems to me we're meant to be.
You were the one I wanted all along.

You are selfish

and always expecting more. You use your love as a weapon but now I'm fighting back.

I think I'm really into you and there's no way it could get better than this.

wave it all goodbye

The streetlights are dimming and the rain is pouring. I'm sitting here ignoring the rocks you're throwing at my window. You're walking on such a thin line but watch me wave it all goodbye.

My greatest mistake

My greatest mistake was thinking nobody got hurt when it comes to love. Give my heart a break before there's nothing left of me.

Please

All of the words you say have got me believing in everything. I'm addicted to the danger you bring and I know you'll never get me a ring but don't leave me alone this time. Stick around this time.

Taking Me Down...

I don't even know where to start, we're falling apart. You've got your heart locked up tight, never saying what you feel. I gave you every little piece of me but you were conflicted and and now you're taking me down.

Feel

Its almost all too much, the love I feel for you. I thought I would never feel this way again, but I stared into your eyes and everything changed.

Don't Care Where We Land As Long As We're Leaving.

I'm longing for you so tell me what to do

Tell me what to do. You're running through my veins. Its not just a feeling, I'm longing for you. I'd do anything to be with you. You could be all that I need.

I can't ignore this war

You don't need me and if I was stronger I'd be able to see that I need to be alone sometimes, but I can't see with all this sadness in my heart and everything you're holding over my head.
We're young and don't know any better, vowing to sleep only when the sky falls down and the moon fades to black.

You Stole my Heart And In Time I Know I'll Heal

The One

I remember living in doubt, but you pulled me out. Before everything was a shade of gray but you make me se black and white. Now fear is our only enemy. The feelings right and I know you're the one for me.

There's nothing like this moment where we can be anything.

Believe Me

You think I don't see you but believe me when I say that I do. You're always the last thing on my mind and try as I might, those thoughts just won't go away.

Running from tomorrow

There you go. You always throw it all away and run away from everything. I guess I didn't mean a thing to you but you meant everything to me. Now we're over and done and I feel like I will never again feel the warmth of the sun

Let me down why don't you

I wish you were here and that I never woke up from that beautiful dream. I felt like I conquered it all with you by my side. I was ready to go and never look back. I thought I knew you but you just let me down.

weak

I'm happy to see you. In front of me you're not as scary as I thought. You can still make me cry with one quick word but I see that you miss me, need me even, and for once I'm the one with the power to see beyond and realize just how much I meant to you.

Wanting you still

I find myself randomly thinking about you. Your name creeps into my thoughts. There's no use ignoring it. I still want you.

A smile on your lips

I walk around town, first to the place where we met, and then to where you parked your car and told me you loved me. I still remember reaching over to hold your hand, but you pulled me closer and kissed me instead, a smile on your lips. Then, finally, I make my way to your open arms and we dance the night away just like every night since then.

Making it without you

Never thought it would be us living a lie. Everything makes me think of those words you whispered that night with the moon lighting the sky. But I can do this. I can make it without you.

Was it time wasted?

I gave you all of my time, wanting nothing in return. Every time I close my eyes I see you.

Please don't go

Its looking like one of those nights I'll stay up wishing on happiness

you're driving me crazy

You got me like a shock to the heart so come on over and we'll leave the world behind

You took my place and gave it to her. I'm through with liars and now I know that life will go on.

We carved our names in a tree

And so I ran away because we fell apart. I left everything I've ever known. I thought we'd grow stronger like that tree we carved our names in. We had the perfect love story except the ending.

I'm not sticking around

You blame me for everything and it just isn't fair. How can you say we're happy when our life together is the farthest thing from paradise?

hit the ground

i hit the ground with a fierce determination. i run quickly, fighting my demons as i go, simply trying to get down the road.

In the end

In the end we'll get out.
In the end we'll make an escape.
In the end we can say goodbye to the nights that we used to lie awake.

What were you doing?

If you love me then why did you let me go? What were you doing? What were you thinking? There was a change of plans and you didn't let me know.

Drink it in. This is the time of our lives.

I might believe you if I didn't know the truth.

I've always felt that no one else would do - but not anymore. I'm feeling as used as a pair of worn out shoes. I'm giving up because there's  just no use.
I stare at the ground and realize that there is so much that I don't know. I'm living alone and I''d rather nobody mean a thing to me. I'm tired of this and just want you.

You're the only thing i've ever known

in just a little while I'll see you again. I finally came back here to find that the sun went on burning away and that your smile can still bring me to my knees.

Who are you really?

It was my moment of weakness when I thought we had it all. Now there's nowhere to go. You always kept me in the dark but I just want you to know that I turned on the light and I see you for who you really are.

Don't you leave. You're the only thing on my mind and I'm just here asking for your love.

When you take, you take it all, leaving nothing behind. I used to dream about you and you always left me coming back for more, but not this time around.

Never love at all

You are suffocating and it feels like I forgot how to breathe. So I'm through with picking up the phone when you call and I'm through feeling this thing that was never love at all.

I look out the window as you stride across the green grass, hoping you'd look up and see all we could be.

So close, yet so far

I wait for the touch of your hand. I know you're just on the other side of the door, but the distance feels greater.

Pale Moonlight

There's a buzzing energy around us as we dance under the pale moonlight. Its like music is playing from nowhere and we make it up as we go

nothing to say

You're sweeter than roses and I smile like nothing's wrong but my own emptiness consumes me and soon we find we have nothing to say

You

You looked good today. You always look good. I can't sit still as the thought of you plagues my mind, making me regret the way fear gripped me and forced me to run away as fast as I could
Can't you see something's missing? Somewhere we went wrong. We were once on the same side but that was then. Everything we had, everything we were is gone.

I'll Wait

I'll wait here forever, unconnected, even though I know there's a chance you'll never come back again.

The Love I Felt

Everything I thought was on my side slowly slips away. I wish you could see how the love I felt hangs around after you walk out.

Flashing by like Photographs

I guess you could say that I'm trying to ignore you, but its hard to keep the conversation going when memories of when we were happy play in my mind, flashing by like photographs.

You're making me come undone.

Thoughts of you creep back into my mind for reasons I can't explain. You're making me come undone and you're all I want but I won't give in that easily.

You were perfect

and I'll hold you in my mind forever. Now that you're not around I realize that to loneliness I'll be forever bound.

Everything is Gone

You said we'd make our story up as we went, but why are we pretending that this will last? You fall for every girl that walks by. I guess its my turn to leave and this time I won't look back.

I thought you were good, but you're not.

Don't you tell me to be strong. Don't tell me how to feel. Don't tell me you love me when you go around breaking my heart.

Never

It hard when people are constantly pushing you down and telling you that you'll never achieve anything. Its tough and it takes every ounce of strength you possess to overcome it and show that you're better than what they think. Even when you feel like your back is up against the wall, its important to stand up tall. Never give up and never say die.

Through it all

We've been through it all. I'm sorry for not being there when I should have and I'm sorry for not listening.

Sorry

I'm sorry for what I said, I didn't mean any of it. I've loved you all along.

The words we said that night were drowned out by the rain

Lost

We were trying to get lost so we took the dirt roads. Your truck got stuck in the creek and our laughter was as bright as the moonlight.

What do I have to do?

What I would do to have you look at me through the corner of you eye, to hear my name on your lips?

We were waiting on the sun to go down,

for the real fun to begin, when things got complicated. The line is blurred and I don't know what to do.

You're all I want,

but its not enough this time

Thought I heard you say our love would be forever long.

Guess I was dead wrong

Baby, I've loved you for so long, but suddenly, its as if the thrill is gone

The light of candles and fireflies.

We lay there in the light of candles and fireflies. That warm summer night plays in my head over and over. Words were all we had and for one summer you were mine.

storybook ending

I wanted my own storybook ending but all I have now is memories. We were a mess and I thought we would make it out. This wasn't supposed to happen with me and you.

thoughts

I have too many thoughts that fuel my sleepless nights. Maybe I'm wrong, and maybe I'm just tired of waiting, but I feel like we're not in love - we're just a disaster.

Just wait and see, one of these days you'll fall for me

We climbed out your window and laid on the grass under the stormy skies and for a moment the world stood still
Can we put back all the pieces? Can we work this out? Can we be together again?

They say life isn't fair and I guess that's true because I'll never be with you

Almost a year

Its been almost a year since I've seen you last. Its crazy to think that I could survive without you for this long.

Broken Glass

I've always been a dreamer, but right now my mind is like broken glass. Cracks are scattered along the surface make a clean line between fantasy and reality.

Never understood

I never understood why you wore sandals in the winter, but I find myself thinking about you more and more these days. Its been three years but even that distance can't keep my thoughts from you.

Passing Minutes

The minutes pass and I stand all alone in the cold wondering what I did to make you leave. All I want is your arms around me and the sound of your laugh in my ears.

Catch my breath

I should have told you all the ways you made me feel alive, but September stole me away from you. Now I'm sitting here alone trying to catch my breath from the memory of you.

"How can I put out this fire when you're the one that lit it?"

You take one look at me and suddenly I feel that I'd rather be alone. I wanna know how it feels to be over you for real. I was gonna be your everything because you were once everything to me. So, tell me, how does it feel to be under my skin?

"You think you got to me, I can just read your mind"
