cry

I'm not the type to get my heart broken,
I'm not the type to get upset and cry,
'Cause I never leave my heart open,
Never hurts me to say goodbye,
Relationships don't get deep to me,
Never got the whole in love thing,
And someone can say they love me truely,
But at the time it didn't mean a thing.

Did it happen when we first kissed?
'Cause it's hurtin' me to let it go,
Maybe 'cause we spent so much time,
And I know that it's no more,
I shoulda never let you hold me baby,
Maybe why I'm sad to see us apart,
I didn't give to you on purpose,
Gotta figure out how you stole my heart.

How did I get here with you I'll never know,
I never meant to let it get so personal,
And After all I tried to do,
Stay away from lovin' you,
I'm broken hearted,
I can't let you know,
And I won't let it show,
You won't see me cry.

My mind is gone,
I'm spinnin' round,
And deep inside,
My tears I'll drown,
I'm losin' grip,
What's happenin'?
I stray from love,
This is how I feel.

This time was different,
Felt like I was just a victim,
And it cut me like a knife,
When you walked out of my life,
Now I'm in this condition,
And I've got all the symptoms,
Of a girl with a broken heart,
But no matter what you'll never see me cry.

traffic

This is the third time this week
That I find myself wandering down your street
And I can't seem to give it up.
And I've even stopped making these excuses
For why you're stuck here in my thoughts
When it's been long enough.
And I try to keep myself moving,
But I'm not going anywhere.

Guess I should be happy now
Everything is back to how it was
Before you came around
I'm already changing
I've even tried to find a new distraction
But still you surround
As if it's not hard enough
And I try to keep myself moving
But I'm not getting anywhere

A part of me thinks that I'm going crazy
The world's spinningMy vision is hazy
And none of this makes any sense
I never meant for this to end
I can do what I have to do...
If I could only get around you

I wait in the same spot
Brain like a parking lot
You're the traffic in my head
You're the reason that I'm wrecked
I pray for it to stopLike rain on the sidewalk
The traffic in my head
You're the traffic in my head
There's just too much to forget

through your slumber

hush my dearest
forget all your woes and fears
the night may have fallen
but i am right here

rest your weary heart
and sleep soundly tonight
i shall watch over you
and never leave your side

should sadness ever find you
and worries should clound your mind
know that as you close your eyes
it is my love that you would find

you shall never be alone
although i am miles away
because deep within your heart
is where i shall always stay

getting by...

I don't know why...











but even if i'm smiling again, i still catch myself feeling nostalgic whenever a sad song plays...

better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is
I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

back into you

Picking up the peices
of our broken memories
There’s one I can’t let go of
that keeps me on my knees
See I know it’s half my fault
That we couldn’t stay together
but we said no matter what
we’d still be friends forever

how could you turn and just go
and leave me standing so cold

tell me what’s that all about
how could you up and move on
like what you had for me is gone

Trying to find my way back into you
when I think of how you left me
baby it’s not easy
but I’m trying to find my way back into you
when i think of how you moved on
baby it’s just so hard

I never quite my love for you
baby that’s the truth
Too hard for me to move on
When I feel this way for you
See I know sometimes we need our space
baby that’s ok
But if you really loved me
Why’d you leave that way
Tell me how

how could you turn and just go
and leave me standing so cold

heaven knows every second I’m away from you
I find it so hard yes find it so hard yes

I just need some time
to find peace of mind

cannonball

Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on

Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
Still I can't say what's going on

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer
To me
So close that I can't see what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!
Teach me to be shy'
Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know

little ms. obsessive

Am I the reason why you tossed and turned last night?
Everything was such a blur, it didn't come out right.
All of the sudden it's cold and we're falling apart.
No this can't be, please don't leave me alone in the dark.

I've never been a fan of long good-byes.
I'm at the finish line and you're just way too far behind.
In the morning I got in a fight with myself, I got the bruises to prove it.
Then I swallowed your words and spit them right back out.

And I guess we're really over, so come over, I'm not over it.
And I guess we're really over, so come over, I'm not over it.
Late night you make me feel like I'm desperate, I'm not desperate.
Oh, a little bit possessive, little miss obsessive, can't get over it. No!

It's like a fairy tale without a happy ending
But then again maybe we are just pretending.
Why does it have to be so unfair?
Tell me that you care.

closing cycles

One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go through.

Closing cycles, shutting doors, ending chapters whatever name we give it, what matters is to leave in the past the moments of life that have finished. Did you lose your job? Has a loving relationship come to an end? Did you leave your parents' house? Gone to live abroad? Has a long-lasting friendship ended all of sudden?

You can spend a long time wondering why this has happened. You can tell yourself you won't take another step until you find out why certain things that were so important and so solid in your life have turned into dust, just like that. But such an attitude will be awfully stressing for everyone involved: your parents, your husband or wife, your friends, your children, your sister, everyone will be finishing chapters, turning over new leaves, getting on with life, and they will all feel bad seeing you at a standstill.

None of us can be in the present and the past at the same time, not even when we try to understand the things that happen to us. What has passed will not return: we cannot for ever be children, late adolescents, sons that feel guilt or rancor towards our parents, lovers who day and night relive an affair with someone who has gone away and has not the least intention of coming back.

Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them really go away. That is why it is so important (however painful it maybe!) to destroy souvenirs, move, give lots of things away to orphanages, sell or donate the books you have at home.

Everything in this visible world is a manifestation of the invisible world, of what is going on in our hearts and getting rid of certain memories also means taking some room for other memories to take their place.

Let things go. Release them. Detach yourself from them. Nobody plays this life with marked cards, so sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Do not expect anything in return, do not expect your efforts to be appreciated, your genius to be discovered, your love to be understood. Stop turning on your emotional television to watch the same program over and over again, the one that shows how much you suffered from a certain loss: that is only poisoning you, nothing else. Nothing is more dangerous than not accepting love relationships that are broken off, work that is promised but there is no starting date, decisions that are always put off waiting for the ideal moment. Before a new chapter is begun, the old one has to be finished: tell yourself that what has passed will never come back. Remember that there was a time when you could live without that thing or that person. Nothing is irreplaceable. A habit is not a need. This may sound so obvious, it may even be difficult, but it is very important.

Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the dust. Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.

over you

Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
'Cause I got over you.Well I got over you.
I got over you.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.

Those Eyes

"I know not what could be more painful: to have felt your love even for the slightest moment or to not have felt it at all..."



Those eyes that looked into your soul
saw the purest heart you hold

Those eyes that gazed so lovingly into yours
held your pain and so much more

Those eyes that witnessed all the tears you cried
soothed your soul all through the night

Those eyes that spoke of nothing else but love
consoled the weary heart you had

Because
Those eyes that saw the best you could ever be
belonged to no one else but me

bittersweet rhymes

i want to write
a poem or a song
make up a little something
that i could hum along
but there is only a smile
perched on my face
as i thought of you
and your silly gaze

you spill all my wits
as you run through my mind
you rush into my head
and waste all my time
you bump all my thoughts
and tug at my heart
you trample my brain
and my senses fall apart

my sweetest, my dearest
my clumsy li'l you
do you have any idea
what it is that you do?!
i'm smiling, i'm gushing
and i'm not even through...
i'm scribbling, i'm doodling
and i'm rhyming too!

i just want to write
a poem or a song
throw in some words
that i could hum along
and yes this silly smile
still sits on my face
as i write about you
still quite amazed!

my wits have been spilled
as you run in my mind
but i haven't stopped writing
after all this time
you're that bump in my thoughts
and that tug in my heart
you're my poem and my song
i can't stop writing about

my dearest, my sweetest
my little boy blue
i'd like to let you know
this is exactly what you do
to a silly, foolish li'l girl
who will never ever get through
fumbling and mumbling
of how much she still loves you

New Soul

I'm a new soulI came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake

See I'm a young soul in this very strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit 'bout what is true and fake
But why all this hate? try to communicate
Finding trust and love is not always easy to make

This is a happy end
Cause you don't understand
Everything you have done
Why's everything so wrong

This is a happy end
Come and give me your hand
I'll take you far away

I'm a new soulI came to this strange world
Hoping I could learn a bit bout how to give and take
But since I came here, felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake
