Wednesday, June 8

Let's go back
Back to the beginning
Back to when the earth, the sun, the stars all aligned
Cause perfect didn't feel so perfect
Trying to fit a square into a circle
Was no lie
Let the rain fall down
And wake my dreams
Let it wash away
My sanity
Cause I wanna feel the thunder
I wanna scream
Let the rain fall down
I'm shedding
Shedding every color
Trying to find a pigment of truth
Beneath my skin
Cause different
Doesn't feel so different
And going out is better
Then always staying in
Feel the wind

People can take everything away from you
But they can never take away your truth
They say I'm crazy
I really don't care
That's my prerogative
They say I'm nasty
But I don't give a damn
I don't need permission, make my own decisions

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day staying up all night
Its everywhere I go its everything I see
When I sleep I dream and it gets me by

You can't stop me now
You can't hold me down
You can't keep me here, I'm on my way
I've made it this far now
And I'm not burning out
No matter what you say, I'm not afraid


Every window pane is shattering
Letting out the noise inside of me
Cutting off my words before I speak

Taught me how to stand
Took me by the hand
And showed me how to be a bigger man
Listened when you talked
Followed where you walked
And you know that I will always do the best I can...

Follow me there
A beautiful somewhere
It's easy to forget, sometimes we just forget
And being on this road is anything but sure
Maybe we'll forget, I hope we don't forget

You know that I'll catch you when you're falling down
We came together but you left alone
And I know how it feels to walk out on your own
Maybe someday I will see you again
And you'll look me in my eyes and call me your friend


Back home
I always thought I wanted so much more
Now im not too sure
And feeling free
Free to stand beside
The ocean in moonlight
And light myself a smoke beneath
The dark atlantic sky

It's all in the way
you look through your eyes
and when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies
are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
that makes you strong

I'm 16 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming

So I said I'm a snowball running
Running down into the spring that's coming
All this love melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love

These lines of lightning
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone
You better believe I'm coming
You better believe what I say
You better hold on to your promises
Because you bet, you'll get what you deserve

A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
Cause I ain't no hollaback girl
I ain't no hollaback girl
People hear you talking like that, getting everybody fired up
So I'm ready to attack, gonna lead the pack
Gonna get a touchdown, gonna take you out

I've crossed deserts for miles
Swam water for time
Searching places to find
A piece of something to call mine
Ran along many moors
Walked through many doors
The place where I wanna be
Is the place I can call mine
I'm moving, I'm coming
Can you hear what I hear
Never been here before
I'm intrigued and I'm sure
I'm searching for more
I've got so much to see
This is where I wanna be
In a place I can call mine

There's no more air
Tripping over myself, going nowhere
Waiting, suffocating, no direction
Been wondering why it's only me
Have you always been inside waiting to breathe
It's alright, sunlight on my face
I wake up and yet, I'm alive
I was so afraid of going under
But now, the weight of the world
Feels like nothing, no nothing

I don't know where to begin
I don't know where to dig in
It's been too long and I'm about to be in time for me
It's been too long and I'm in time
I never thought I would win
I never thought much about that
I never stopped to begin
Thinking about the process

I've told you time and time again
You sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay
What’s the worst that I can say
Things are better if I stay
Well, if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay

It's a strange emotion this
but there's still hope in this
As long as there's a breath
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in
But things just get so crazy
Living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road, get up and go if I knew

Paint a picture with my hands
Change the weather still together when it ends
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
would pass me by?

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper I love you
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave our worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Such a funny thing for me to try to explain,
How I'm feeling and my pride is the one to blame.
Have you ever told someone something
That's far from the truth
Let them know that you're okay
Just to make them stop
All the wondering, and questions they may have
I'm okay, I really am now
Just needed some time, to figure things out
Not telling lies, I'll be honest with you
Still we don't know what's yet to come

Have you ever seen your face,
In a mirror there's a smile
But inside you're just a mess,
You feel far from good
Need to hide, 'cos they'd never understand
Have you ever had this wish,
of being Somewhere else
To let go of your disguise, all your worries too
And from that moment, then you see things clear

What if I told you
It was all meant to be
Would you believe me
Would you agree
Everything changes
But beauty remains
Something so tender
I can't explain
Well I may be dreaming
But still lie awake
Can we make this dream last forever

WOOHOO! MY MEDLEY OF LYRICS. hahaha. =D

The worst is over now and we can breathe again! <-- Broken by Seether.
