A Little Too Comfortable

I try to stay away from coffee, but brunch is just a must on Sunday.
I’m never very far from being broke.
My taste is rather too expensive, although my style is apprehensive.
My credit card bills are just a joke.
We try to analyze but who knows what we’re really thinking.
We always comprise afraid to be our best, afraid to be the best.

A little too comfortable to really want to change.
I slowly dream my life away.
A little too satisfied to surface from the sand.  Read More »

Pie In The Sky

So here we are once again.
Though we know that this is wrong we can’t go back to being friends.
We hesitate then give in.
I have hungered for your touch, to feel the warmth of your skin.
Intensity is on overdrive, but how much longer can we survive,
When we are wrapped up in these lies.

A memory in my heart lingers on forever.
A symphony in my mind thinking of your laughter.
And no matter how hard I try it’s pie in the sky ‘cause I just can’t remember to forget you.  Read More »

Patch Me Up

I was torn into so many pieces, I thought nothing could ease this.
Little did I know that you’d finally come around.
You did more than astound me.
It’s so hard to keep my feet on the ground.
Way up here it seems I’ll never come down.

So keep it coming I ain’t running from the way you make me feel.
I like the way you make me feel.
Anything Is Possible and I owe it all to you.
I like the way you make me feel.
Whenever I fall apart you patch me up and mend my heart.  Read More »

You & I

I’m perfectly flawed, but when I’m with you I can be who I am.
It’s so beautiful, every time we’re together I get more than I plan.
Now every day just feels like the sun always shines on me.
In every way it feels like you were meant for me.

Now we know love is all we need.
Now we know love is all we need.
It set us free.
You & I are more than words.
You & I can reach the stars.
You & I are what we’ve learned.
I want you, you want me. Love is all we need.  Read More »

Track: You & I

Spread The Love

I’m tired of all this craziness.
I can hardly believe it, hardly believe it.
I know I’m not your therapist but you’ve gotta believe me,
you’ve gotta believe me.

The velvet smooth feeling fills you up spreading through your veins.
You’ll feel the love drug overtake you.
I know you can feel the same. (Gonna make you)
Spread the love, bring it in.
It feels so good, everybody wins.

Just take your time, we’ve got all night.
What I’ll do with you, will prove I’m right.  Read More »

Drowning

On the outside everything looks fine.
On the inside I’m fading fast.
It’s funny how a new day can change your life forever.
Now you’re just a memory, a photograph there’s nothing here to hold.

I wake up feeling you’re still in my arms.
I wake up realize you’re gone it’s hard to face the day alone.
I’m drowning in this world.
I’m drowning in the air that I breathe.
I can’t go on now I’m without you.  Read More »

Track: Drowning

Out Of The Rain

You woke up this morning living someone else’s life.
Wearing someone else’s shoes.
Talking someone else’s lies.

It seems like you’ve lost your mind.
Now your life’s just a compromise.
In the mirror’s another smile that you don’t even recognize.

When you feel you’re all alone with the monsters in your mind.
You don’t feel you have the strength to leave them all behind.
All you need to do is call me and I’ll be there to bring you into the sun and out of the rain.  Read More »

You Were Loved

I said a few things I didn’t mean.
Lost my mind a few times between,
but I’d be lying through my teeth if I said I not hurting.
I feel like I could suffocate,
and no amount of pills can alleviate,
this feeling that I get when I’m without you.

Well I hope you can forgive me and please try to carry on.
But there’s one thing that is certain now you’re gone.

Just know that…
You were loved.
Know that these were words not lightly shared with you.
Know that you were loved.  Read More »
