Deep Breaths

Hey, baby.
Please don’t look so sad
Don’t you know,
These bad times will never last?

Honey, I know that,
That the world has got you down.
And when you cry on the inside,
Your tears don’t make a sound.

So darling, just let me in,
And let your light shine on.
I will be your harbor, baby,
Your smile is my morning sun.

Tell me, can’t you see
Just how beautiful you are?
Look into the mirror
And try to see what I see.

So take a deep breath
And slowly let it go.
Let it take away your worries
When it goes.

Honey, I know that,
That the world has got you down.
And when you cry on the inside,
Your tears don’t make a sound.

And darling, let me in,
And let your light shine on.
I will be your harbor, baby,
Your smile is my morning sun.

If you let me in,
So the hurt can stop
Just take a deep breath
I’ll wipe away the tears

So...

Lately, I've been feeling like I've been in a funk. I have no idea why, but I hope it ends soon because it's really annoying. So feel free to give me a random hug....or two. I'm not averse to hugs.

New!

Textual Relations
Hi there. How you doing?
Tell me what you’re thinking.
I think this will be just great.

Hey, babe, how’s your day?
You know if I had my way,
I’d be with you right now.

So here we are,
Having textual relations
By the moonlight.
And the world is alright with me.

I miss you something fierce.
And I know you must be tired, ‘cause
You’ve been running all day through my mind.

I’m just nervous to begin this
Because no one’s ever really
Treated me this good.

Yet here we are,
Having textual relations
By the moonlight.
And the world is alright with me.

New songs

Sweet Dreams
Late nights
All alone
Waiting for you
To pick up your phone.

Waiting to hear
That voice so sweet
You sound so near
So close to me

But you’re a world away
And I can’t seem to get through to you.

So close your eyes
And go to sleep
And if you dream
I know it won’t be of me.

So I won’t dream of you
I won’t think about you tonight.
I’ll light up a cigarette
And push you from my mind.

Because you’re a world away
And I’ll never get through to you.
So dream sweet dreams tonight
I’ll be gone before it’s light.

Letting Go
How many times do we have to say goodbye
Before I know that it’s for good?
How many times do we have to say hello
Until I know what I should do?

Tell me baby, now what will you do
Now that I’m really gone for good?
Tell me, honey, now what do you do
When you’ve got a hoop but no one to jump through?

I tried to hold on to
What was left of you
But no one in this world can be that strong.

I trusted you
Even needed you
Although I knew that it was wrong.

How many times do we have to say goodbye
Before I know that it’s for good?
How many times do we have to say hello
Until I do what I should

And forget you.

I’m letting go.
I’m letting go
I’m letting go of you

I’m letting go
I’m letting go
But it’s so hard to do.

I’m letting go
Because I know
It’s what I need to do.

Motherf***er

What makes a person unforgettable? Is it their looks? Their personality? The combination of the two? Perhaps it may not be them at all. Rather, it might be the person that can't forget them. Looks fade. Personalities change. The combination of the two can have a seemingly endless list of possible results, but there are only so many of those. It must be the other person then. Something inside the other person won't let them forget about the other person. Either way, it doesn't matter for me. I am apparently a pretty forgettable person. I mean, people remember me, but what I may have meant to them is pretty forgettable, even if it may seem like at the time that I was the most important person in the world to them. I lose my shine and they move on to bigger and better things. And I am left like an old toy plane; discarded and forgotten. It's tough to be the flavor of the week, but one day I know that someone will find me, pick me up, dust me off, fix my broken wing, and truly appreciate me for the rare item that I am. Until then, I'll wait here in the dark, dusty attic, just keeping on like I always do. Coping and managing. Hoping to catch the discerning eye of someone new.

A little confession...

I like to express myself through song. Not necessarily MY songs, but usually other people's songs. This is one that I've been feeling for a little while.

Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg

I think that possibly
Maybe I'm falling for you
Yes
There's a chance that I've fallen quite hard over you

I've seen the paths that your eyes wander down
I want to come too

I think that possibly
Maybe I'm falling for you

No one understands me quite like you do
Through all of the shadowy corners of me

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew

I think that possibly
Maybe I'm falling for you
Yes
There's a chance that I've fallen quite hard over you

I've seen the waters that make your eyes shine
Now I'm shining too

Because
Oh
Because I've fallen quite hard over you

If I didn't know you I'd rather not know
If I couldn't have you I'd rather be alone

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew

I never knew just what it was about this old coffee shop I love so much
All of the while I never knew

All of the while
All of the while it was you
You
You
You

Floating

I watch you standing there
Smiling back at me,
You catch my eye,
And set my caged heart free.

I’ve got a fire inside
I’d like to share with you
But I can’t control it
And I don’t know what to do.

I---I think that this is probably just a dream,
‘cause this would never happen for me.
I---I know that this is more than just a dream,
Still I never thought this could happen.

I gotta tell ya,
I’ve been floating above the ground
Ever since you’ve
Started hanging around

My feet haven’t touched the ground
Since the day that I met you,
I’m flying high
Nothing can bring me down.
