I swallow the bitter words on my tongue, trying to give you an apology, but you make it hard to mean what I say

Your hands glide over the keys and I'm mesmerized. You've got so much talent and you're wasting it on me.

Yearning for your soft and gentle embrace. Wanting to look into those blu eyes I've come to love. Itching to feel you on me

You can't keep pushing me to my limit, making me falter and second guess my every move

YOU CAN'T TAME MY HEART

My thoughts are my only company these days. Its easy to wish for better things but sometimes being alone is all you need

I'm walking through a minefield, trying not to upset you or cause you pain, but you never return the favor

Let me call you my own

Why does there have to be a barrier between us? Why can't you want me the way I want you? Let's break this wall of two years down. Let me have you.

Turn the Music Up I've Got You Pumping Through My Veins

My Way

Just another lonely heart walking along. I'm not looking but if you want to come my way I won't object.

Fear

My heart aches for past days. I want my biggest fear to be monsters under my bed, not who will break my heart next and why.

My heart goes out to you, it really does

You will never know true love. You'll always be alone. I'll make you pay.

Caught in a lie, ready for revenge. Don't cross me and expect not to get hit back

I'm a dangerous romantic, ready to be preyed on

Give me space, let me breathe

How can I ever be anyone other than who you want me to be when you're constantly suffocating me?

Past Memories

It does't take much for memories of our shared past to invade my mind. Every part of me holds on to a piece of you it seems.

GL

Its time for you to look at me and see all I have to offer. Been in love with you forever.

I'll always regret saying I didn't need you

come away with me, make all my worries disappear

My heart beats for you and that hazy summer night when you took my hand and told me everything would be all right.

i'm scared to let you in

what if you're not worth the trouble? what if you realize all my flaws?

walking away from you was one of the hardest things i've ever had to do, but it was also one of the most freeing experiences

Love is on its way

Not a prisoner to my emotionless heart anymore

wait for you to come back, to notice me again. Say you'll come back to me one day.

Read My Lips:

I don't wear my heart on my sleeve so stop trying to guess my next move because you'll always lose.

I wish I could rearrange my feelings, make it so I feel for you the way I feel for him.

Everyone Else

You'll be gone by now, off to do better and bigger things while I'm stuck in the same old place. All that's left are me and my tears falling like rain on the pavement.

We Could

I'll tell you somehow, someday. I'll gather the courage to tell you how I really feel. I'll show you all we could be.

All The Time

The night is passing both quickly and slowly all at once. You took my hand and our journey continued from there. Our hearts beating rapidly against our synchronized breaths. I can still feel your arms around me and hear the smile in your voice.

Nothing is ever out of reach as long as you try your hardest

When You're Around

Even the coldest of nights can not keep me from you. The darkest days can not hinder my spirit, no, not when you're around.

Is that how you want it to be? Do you want more? You're giving me mixed signals and I don't know where to go from here.

turn that walk into a run and come see what i'm thinking of

Show me something real

Never hurry your love for me. Take it nice and slow. We've been pulled together again and its about time we had something to show for it.

Rule

I had to test the waters for myself. I'm done taking your word as rule

I'm jumping off the edge
Ready to get away from here
Ready to start a brand new life
No one can do this for me
Its now or never

Searching for every meaning in my life

I wish i was with you and your sweet, sweet voice

Loving You Is Dizzying

i'll follow where you're going and someday you'll fall for me all over again

I know I'm not alone but I can't help but feel left out

Don't Leave Me Again

Don't leave me again. My tears fell where you slept. Don't make me incomplete. You can't leave everything behind. Don't leave me again.

Searching for the moment it all went wrong. Looking for a reason why

When You Left Me

I'm tempted to leave it all behind and start a new life. Wait for nightfall and make my escape. Try to find where you went when you left me

footsteps are on the ground, making their way closer to me. I tried so hard but I'm not good enough

What I Wanted

A year ago I was on the edge but you pulled me back. My plans never go right but you made me feel what i wanted.

BitterSweet

Our love was bittersweet like grass wafting in the wind on a lazy Sunday only to burst into flames and we loved to watch it burn, didn't we?

Refusing to go back to you was crazy

Falling

You string me along and I don't know to fix my heart. I was knocked off my feet and thought I could touch the stars. Now, I'm falling, falling far.

you struck my heart and silence surrounded me. there you go again making me want to learn all i can about you. there's no one similar, you're unlike any other but somehow you feel familiar, like looking into a mirror.

New Model

I was so hungry for your love, got lost in it all. Think I'm gonna trade you in for the new model and try not to feel hurt

Lost in a Circle

I couldn't find my way back. you were always there in the daylight but once the sun went down you left me spinning in circles.

Matt F (4/18/12)

You said only a few words but I'll carry them in my heart forever as a memory of the boy who made me smile

i feel lost in the shadows and the sunlight is fading

When I say it out loud it sounds absurd but in my head nothing has ever made so much sense.

The Last Goodnight

Our last days were filled with laughter and forgiveness. The last goodnight crept upon us. Our eyes met and my heart danced with joy at the thought of you but now we're both gone. Only memories as light as the summer sun keep us together.

I'm wearing a disguise

I'm wanting to be something but I'm living a terrible lie. Everyone else can see through my disguise but you.

We make awkward eye contact and my heart beats as loud as thunder

I'm standing at the edge because of the dirty words you threw my way, just waiting for the lights to go out

We've got nothing but time to lose so lets walk across this floor on our way to the top feeling loose in the wild

I wrote you a letter each time I tried moving on

I looked at them under a harsh inspection, trying to find a way to get off this roller coster ride but I'm still stuck inside this maze, searching for your face.

The past is where you're at

You're so wrong. I'm done with thinking about you. You couldn't make up your mind or love me back so the only choice I have is to leave you behind.

So Beautiful

I was standing there when the warm summer rain poured over me. I had no idea something as destructive as a storm could be so beautiful.

We ran along the creek as the moon rippled in the water. "I love you" forever on the tip of my tongue.

Maybe I don't think this is the best thing, but I'd do it again.

You tell yourself you're better than that, better than those silly little games. Your confidence is failing miserably. I can see the cracks in your armor, but if you put yourself on the line I won't let you fall.

I was hurt by you. You were my first real heartache. You said you thought we'd never last and I was begging you to stay. I cried endlessly for a month and let life pass me by. I haven't yet forgotten your smile or the scent of your skin. You took me down and let me hit the ground. Now there's no room for you in my heart.

I've got a weak stomach and an even weaker heart.

I can't seem to swallow the words that pour right out of your mouth.

He gave his heart to someone else and I'm sure he thought I would be weeping, but the truth is I've never been stronger.

You chased me

You were hell bent on chasing me and now I'm excellent at camouflaging my feelings. You say you'll take me anywhere and I say I'll try to love you.

I traced your heart with my hand,

and then your tattooed covered arms. You touched my hair, moving down until you reached my hands. We both held on for dear life.

Sweet Lips

Under the lights your sweet lips caressed mine and I swear I felt my heart skip. You've got me like a drug and night after night I want to be tangled with you like the roots on the ground.

Our lives are fragile

Our lives are fragile and could be gone in a second so all there's to do is live right now and we'll be just fine.

Its always been me and you. Time stood still when we first met. It happened so fast and now you're the only one I see.

You walk in circles around my heart

and have made me feel so insecure. There's nothing that can chase away my doubt and you're left to dance alone.

Just A House

I walked up the porch steps and through the broken doors to the empty rooms. The home that once sang beautiful melodies now is a just house filled wit scary silence.

The heat of a summer night

You kissed me in the heat of a summer night and I forgot what this really was. Now you've got me running to you, ready for the free fall.

Saying what was on my mind felt dangerous

Summer air floats through the window and I have no idea what I'm feeling.

Spring break is half over and I've done nothing. So far all I've one is re-watch The Office with my sister and stay up late into the night wishing things were different. I have things to do put I keep pushing them back which causes me so much stress, yet I keep doing it.
I haven't really been on my game lately. I've lost all control it feels like.
I felt like this once before and everything came tumbling down. I think that might happen again.

I don't think he notices that when he smiles my knees get weak.

Neon lights shine against the dark night sky as I leave my past behind,
Ready for a life of no regrets

This Time

I don't want to jinx my luck but he's sweeter than roses and I think this time I might get what I want.

The Right One

It all came down and we're left with nothing to say. It was a long time coming and you have a tendency to make a mess of me. We were on the verge of going in circles and I know it will take a while to get over you, but I know one day we'll both find the right one.

Suddenly

Its scary how quickly things can change, Suddenly there's no spark. Suddenly, you don't make my heart skip a beat. We're wasting time and there's nothing we can do.

All the shadows fade away

I'm tripping over my two feet on my way to you. You start to make your way to me from across the room and all the shadows fade away

I can never be sure how feel but that look in your eyes is enough to get me through

Breezy Breath

There are crashing waves in front of me on this summer's eve. You're telling me unbelievable things with your breezy breath and I know you can make all my dreams come true.

I'm wracked with guilt every time I think of how I hurt you.

GL is back once again

You walked past me and I didn't know what to think. You consume my thoughts once again. Others have tried to take your place but you keep creeping back to the front of my mind.

I'm trying to wash away every memory of you, scrubbing at the surface to get the stain of your crooked smile off my heart.

I wanted what I couldn't have

and somewhere along the way I saw you for what you really are. Glittering skies and fresh blossoms can't hide the monster that hides behind that handsome mask

I'll have to let you go because I can't even look at you now. I'm trying to survive and I can't do that with you by my side

When I'm Away

When I'm away I imagine you crawling back for more. In my mind I see you driving around, always managing to end up on my side of town

I have a fear of falling and you're pulling me down quickly. Don't make me beg for my escape.

You're wrapped around my heart, squeezing hard. You take what you can get and then move on, leaving me bruised and broken

Let My Heart Speak

You'll never notice how I can't breathe when you're around. I'll keep these feelings bottled up until I can gather the courage to let my heart speak the truth

These feeling aren't true

You should know better than to listen to me when I'm angry. I still want every piece of you.

Fake Smiles and Settling

A year has passed and I'm finally realizing that you're the cure to this heartbreak. Now all I have is your memory that keeps playing through my mind.
My heart beats for you, and I'm stuck in a lonely place, forcing myself to smile, knowing that I will have to settle for less.

You wrote me a song

and I never looked back. With a simple whisper I'm all yours

I can tell by the vacancy in your eyes that you're not in love so let's stop pretending

Be with me, please, or I'll fade away

You're different than the rest.

You have everything they don't
You say the words they won't
And you make me feel like they can't

You'll Never Know What I Have To Say

My tongue is tied. I won't waste these words, these well rehearsed lines on you. You'll never know what I have to say.

In the beginning you never think it'll hurt,

but by the end you realize you knew it all along.

I'll Never Be The Same Again

I'm falling in love so say you'll fall with me

Just To Say You Could

You didn't mean anything you said, did you? Just wanted to capture my heart to say you could.

Point Of View

Just once I wish I could see myself from your point of view. Maybe then I'd know what you felt.

Less alone

When I'm with you I feel less alone, like there's no way I could ever be lonely again.

I thought I knew who you were,

but you went and changed on me

Rain makes the air cold, creating a chill I can't seem to escape.

All I seem to do is look out the window and think of you

Everything I want to hear flows seamlessly out of his mouth. I wonder if any of it is true.

Out of breath

My body aches from tiredness and then I see someone I thought was you. Feelings come flooding back. If you were here you'd be out of place and I'd be out of breath.

Meant to be

Doesn't it mean we're meant to be together if I know you're too good for me? If I feel like I don't deserve you? Doesn't it mean we're supposed to be together if I feel this way about you?

Blonde hair, brown eyes, everything I've ever wanted.

Shame on you.

Cut me down why don't you? Make me feel worse than i already do. Make me regret everything I've ever said or done. Make yourself feel better at my expense and then ignore me as I wipe away my tears.

Jarred

It was one of those jarring moments when you can't comprehend what you've just seen and in that instant I knew how I really felt for you.

I don't want to see how this will end.

It will cause an earth shattering heartbreak that I don't think I can bear.

I didn't think we'd end this way and I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.

More or Less

Am I worth what everyone says I am? Or am I something much less?

Who said?

You walk me to the car and I feel myself tense up, anticipating your next move. You're constantly surprising me. I feel like I can't get used to this feeling of excitement, but who said I wanted to?

A Sad Heart's Ramblings

In the middle of the game you changed the rules. I might still love you, but I changed my mind. It isn't like me to forgive and forget, but it isn't like you to be where you said you'd be. I tell myself I might be losing if I let you in again, but it might be worth it.

Happier Now

I'm happier now that I'm with you. The stars seem to shine brighter and the nights aren't as cold. Everyday is a summer day with you. The grass is greener and there are never any clouds in the sky.

I should have known from the start that you wouldn't be worth the hurt.

Whatever will be will be. We can't change anything and maybe its for the best.

I can sleep tonight because I know its all right

Doing my best

I'm doing my best to hold onto the good moments and trying my hardest to let the bad ones fade away. You'll always be the one I care for most.

We're oceans apart, you and me. There's nothing to bridge the gap

Goodbye

Its so hard to say goodbye but its all we can do
wish I could you forever
wish I could keep my heart from breaking

Yesterday is gone and so is everything else

we can't go back
it feels like we're holding for disaster
and I don't know how to tell you what I feel
