"I would rather die living, than live dying"

miss you in my life

I see you sleeping
Only in my mind
And I have been away
alone this season

I waste so much time
Thinking of when I
Would hold you gently
And I'd look into your eyes
And I would be the one
To calm your shaking
When you would cry

I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
So miss you in my life

You hide your answers
Within every smile
And time and time again
Losing chances
To reconcile

And even if I had my time over
It would take awhile
To reveal all my best intentions
That I let slip by

I miss you in my life
So miss you in my life
I miss you in my life
Now I miss you in my life

always

Its my favorite thing
just sitting there
watching you sleeping

the secrets you keep
go on and keep them
someday you wont need them

I always say your always gone
you were never here for me
but your always here
in my heart

hey there baby
hey there smile
I promise to never be far

I alway took care of you
yes I did

most of the time
just grind through my day
trying to understand your way

most of the time
in my way
trying to keep the pain at bay

I always say your gone
you were never there
but your always here
in my heart

I always took care of you

knowing

I can still see
see you there
I can see you
everywhere

I remember
every smile
the islands
in your eyes


I am lost
lost forever
in your time
all I can say


I could never say
what could save you
to open your life
like flowers in bloom


who will save
who is to know
what was our truth
that could save you


no one could every want you
more than I want you
no one could ever say
only we know our truth


I can still feel every kiss
see every smile on your lips
I still see the sunlight in your hair
I feel you presence everywhere


I can see without sunlight
when I close my eyes for awhile
I see secret islands in your mind
where we would walk for a time


I wait for you near my edge
on my knees on my back
I will be there, be your answer
when the silence attacks


when there is no one is left
and nothing said can save you
who will you break
who will give yourself to


I can you in the water
I see you in the air
I can see you
I can see you here

why

I don't have anything to say to you
and if I did it wouldnt be good
it might be good for me but not for you
but every word I said would be true


there isnt anything left in me
not even any hate for you
I just seen you sell yourself
for free like you always do


when I think about what left in me of you
I just think about all the things you do
I wont lie and say what I think of you
you blame alcohol but its really you



you can live a lie like its true
but what we are isnt what we say
its in every little thing we do
and you won't change the twisted you



when it comes down to it
like when you love to do it
anyone can have all of you
you can't hide, truth is truth



what goes through your nose
goes to your mind and to your soul
leaves a hole in your heart
so sell yourself for free its so old



when your lips move its a sign
any sound you make is a lie
the destruction you left in my mind
I started to heal when I quit asking why



live your life like a living lie
lie on your back cause your high
like the disease on your lips
prices paid by your randoms
never to say goodbye


its all on you
all on yourself
so change yourself
or live the life of lies
and pay the price.

bringing down our eyes

Time is bringing down our eyes
I was found I almost made it
it was hard to hide
yet the final kiss
betrayed it

I hear goodbye in the wind outside
left behind the leaves and light
you know I could never let the dark
dim the light in your beautiful eyes

the world is left on shaking ground
your light behind darkness to remind us
In my arms no warmth could be found
a kiss in time that could not confine us

the time is up on everything we know
and the time itself is bringing down our eyes
In the sound of seas and snow falling
I can hear you now as the musics ending

further from my need

There was a time
when you were everything
You were my need

there was a time
when you I needed
You were my everything

There was a time
I needed to keep you warm

There was a time
I needed to keep you from harm

Then your seas
they rushed over me
When my secret wounds would bleed
you were never there for me
taking me further from my need

I knew you
when you were so warm

I remember you
when it was everything
to keep you from any harm

Then your seas
they rushed over me
when my secret wounds would bleed
when you werent there for me
taking me further from my need

For every place
we were going to go
for all the spaces
We will never know

I hold them close
in this empty room
where I traded everything
to be with you alone

Then your seas
they rush over me
my secret wounds they bleed
taking me further from my need

a smile

Tell her I'll be waiting
in my usual place
I'm tired and weary
feels like theres no escape
Until I see her face

when you love a woman
the rich get poor
the strong get weak
like words I can't find
like a feeling I can't hide

when she is running with me
my restless heart inside it pounds
near her my storms are breaking
running like colors in a painting
like the blue ocean all around

something is breaking so it seems
in the middle of a storm thats raging
like my life resurrected by her smile
a safe place for me to be for awhile
so let her smile

smile that turns the world

you are the light to me
like forces that are stronger
than anything I've ever seen
like starlight over oceans
and moons that are unseen

you are beautiful and lovely
like city lights in a night sky
I'm struck while I stare at your aura
Its your smile that turns the world
