Veto

Just like too much anesthesia
he has an effect that causes amnesia.
The hardest thing is standing by
watching him make you die.
With disappointment at every turn
I see your heart yearn.
Longing to be held and adored,
with all the love I know you have stored.
Get past your own worry
or you will lose her in a hurry.
Your end will be your ego
if you are not forced first with a veto.

Step up boy...

Preserve

Stand up for yourself stand up
don't give up, never give up.
Don't let him walk and even stomp
once he begins he will never stop.
He constantly takes
leaving you awake.
Never to get rest
tearing your nest.
Didn't you take the time to build it?
Did you not seal it
with the love you made?
Never once did he come to your aid.
Please preserve yourself

Need to Breath

When I say I'm having trouble breathing,
why do you start talking about leaving?
When I spin out of control,
why can't you try to console?
When I hit the floor on my side,
why do you run and hide?
All I need is for you to catch my fall,
but now it seems all you can do is slam me into a wall.
I keep trying to catch my breath,
while you smother me to death.

Guilty

You are a constant reminder of the pain
all the guilt and all the shame.
Why would you think it would ever be the same
after you played your little game?
Are you looking for a reason to leave?
Your heart is completely deceived.
All the reasons and excuses you send
will only make you the loser in the end.
Truer love has not ever been made
and all you want to do is throw it away.

*Nobody can make you feel guilty unless you already are.*

Lost Innocence

What more do you want?
You took more than you ought.
You say you have issues with trust,
I think it's more to do with lust.
What will you do when you can't have your way?
Will you even bother to stay?
You say you can't trust anyone
but what about the one that has come undone?
You took everything that was given
leaving nothing behind but what needs forgiven.
Just for you to prove the truth
loosing everything especially youth...

When all you have is lost and never to be recovered....

Will You Dance?

It started off so very romantic
but like a sad story it's becoming tragic.
Turning the love that was made
into *** that will fade.
You're being pushed away
but what's really being tested is if you will stay.
Head keeps spinning all the day long
and I can't seem to stop singing this song
Choices are made day after day
will you dance or walk away?

Please don't walk away...

Secrets To My Mind

There are so many things that seem not to be real
Like the things that you say and the things that I feel.
But if I had to do it all again
I would still do it times ten!
If I could change just one thing
I would have said yes in the spring.
If I had to do it over
I would have done it much slower.
If I could get you to love more
all the way to my core.
There you would find
the secrets to my mind.
