love is being able to give him
the power to destroy you

but trusting him
not to

love is knowing that he'll
always be the one you run to

because he's the one you
belong to

love is knowing that even though
you dont get to see him
as often as you like

you may not get to hold him
in your arms all through to night

but knowing that deep in your heart
that he's the one you truly love

and that you can never
let him go heart heart

as she hit the pavement
she finally felt it

the thing she was afraid of discovering
for it may reveal her past

the thing she feared to recover
fo rit may re-open her old wounds

she vowed to stay away from it
only to hear it calling every night

she vowed to never touch it again
only to have it feel so inviting

it worried her day and night
creeping into her every thought

who knew that the thing that had always brought her pain
would somehow, finally bring her happiness

who knew that the thing that was as bad as death itself
would somehow, possibly bring her life

but as her once warm body lies on the hard pavement
she begins to think differently

and she begins to realize
how cold the world can be

when did your eyes begin to look so fake?
well who cares! thank you for waiting this long to show me!

i hope you're as happy as you're pretending becasue now that i see you
i see that you're not even worth a second glance or a second chance

i wasted all this time getting to know the real you
only to find that the real you was never there

...that's so not fair

all my life i've been building walls around me
safe in my own little world where no one has found me

hoping and wishing someone would come and find me
and that's when you came

i put up these walls not to keep people out
but to see who cares enough about me to break them down

and in these walls, my only friend
is the silence that envelopes me

and it is in this silence
that i can hear them loud and clear

screaming on and on.....all alone
