This is my way of convincing myself I'm right.

Untitled #1

I'll wait here everyday, where you are always invited
Seeing the past through your eyes never felt so horrible
Dropping hearts, saving grace, there's no turning away
Just watching the clock ticking your name over and over again

I'll never see the stars that glisten in your eyes
We'll never see the streetlights at midnight
I'll never be the same as you were in my life
I'd rather just go blind then see you two together

This makes me feel like the life I had was all just to waste
But deep down in my soul, I know, I know
I know you would never throw it away,
Not for him, not for what you think you have

Through the Clouds

We are the skydiver without hope
Falling through the sky felt like so long ago
Holding so dearly his beloved Polaroids
With her in mind, begs for more
Notes, memories, entries flood his mind
Hoping the sky can reconcile
Never giving up, he reaches for the clouds
"Give it your heart," he thought
Waving to the ground coming for his life
Beginning to see the light
Hearing the angel scream brings terror to mind
It will all end once he finds his way to the ground

The piano strings ring on in his head
As plane flies away he waits for the end
The piano strings ring on in his head
As plane flies away he waits for the end
Thinking for his last words, "I'll never let go."
"No matter what I say I'll always be in debt to you,
No matter what I say I'll always owe my life to you..."

Sleeping Pills

I have a sleeping pill that I take every night,
So I can see you, because the only place that I can see you is in my dreams.
But now that I think I've found you, I can throw those pills away.
Because I don't need them as bad as I need you.

Maybe I'm the one you'll like,
Maybe I'm the one that needs you in his worst times
Baby, I'm the one you're like,
Baby, I'm the one who'll catch you when you fall down

What am I waiting for? I'm waiting for you to notice me.
Is it that you see right through me? That can't be.
I can't control my breathing when you look at me so discretely.
Everywhere I go, there's a crossroad that takes me right back to you.

I've done this over and over-repeating what I'd say to you to the mirror.
Because I'm ripping myself apart trying to find the right words to say.
Hopefully, this letter's not too late.

Maybe I'm the one you'll like,
Maybe I'm the one that needs you in his worst times
Baby, I'm the one you're like,
Baby, I'm the one who'll catch you when you fall down
I've spent all this time looking for you,
And now that I've found you, I finally have a clue.
This time we'll make it through,
And this time, I can finally say that...
