Matchbox Car   
07:18pm 08/05/2006
 
Please just tell me,
Make it crystal clear,
Because, I was your Matchbox Car,
The one you threw away 2 weeks later;
I was your new bed,
Dented after a week of use;
I was your water after exercise,
Refreshing but short-lived.

And now I’ll ask this;
When did I stop believing?
I think I knew all along.
Does the shiny Car think it will last forever?
Does it think it will always be the best?
It has to know that it replaced something,
And something will replace it.

Now that your interest is gone,
Who’s to blame?
Mad at me for believing I was better,
Or mad at you for giving me lines?
They were beautiful, once,
Sharp and new.
I wish I could have seen them then,
On who they were written for;
Now they’re moldly and old,
No one wants your wasted Matchbox Car.

Remind me what we're missing   
11:40pm 13/01/2006
 
When everything is said and done;
When hearts are dead and cold;
When old wishes become new hatred,
And tears just never stop.

When apologies mean nothing;
When promises are dead and broken;
When everything ever said
Was really all for nothing.

When reaching out feels guilty;
When you can't feel perfect again;
When the beauty you once felt
Will slowly fade away.

When you just cannot take it;
When the goosebumps never leave;
When you know that how we felt
Is now gone forever,
Call me.

Bring me back.

Remind me what we're missing,
Of what we had before.
Take me in your arms again
And the world will spin once more.

not much   
12:20am 27/12/2005
 

there's not much that i've wanted more;
you're just so hard to get.
there's not much that i've wanted more;
do you play it cool just to make me sweat?

pretend that you're not interested
so i will chase you down,
it's really not as hard as it seems
just to keep me coming back.

so step up to the plate,
take over what i've begun;
enjoy it while it lasts
'cause we're gonna have some fun.

 

i don't even know what to say, i'm just so complicated.  but so are you so i guess it's fair.  i really want to talk to you but if i start everything how am i supposed to know you're interested?  i can't tell because you're so shy.  so maybe i was right.  or maybe i was wrong.  but either way this isn't going to work without a little effort from you.

but i just like you so much.

Don't Say No   
05:15pm 18/11/2005
 
It’s time
Walking towards you
Sweaty palms
Racing heart
Your crisp shirt
Sexy pants
I take a deep breath
Ready to speak
Say the words
Don’t say no
Don’t say no
Don’t say no
I go to speak
You say hi
Loss of words
Loss of air
Deep breath
I can do this
I try to speak
Don’t say no
Want so much
Don’t say no
Can’t handle rejection
It’s time to ask
Deep breath
Calming voice
Happy thoughts
Question’s coming
Will you be mine?
Yes....

Rejection Takes its Toll   
05:06pm 18/11/2005
 
mood: worried





You make me laugh
When I am down,
You brighten up my day.

A helping hand
to lean on,
A light through all the pain.

You managed to help
Make everything alright,
And to that I am grateful,
But you'll never be more
Then the friend I grew up with.
I won't let it go too far.

It's not that I'm afraid to love you,
I've already gotten that far;
It's not that I'm afraid to call you,
You're the first one on my list;
It's not that I'm afraid to loose you,
Because to me you'll never be gone;
It's not that I'm afraid you'll laugh
When the words all come out wrong;
And it's not that I'm afraid of this
When everything feels so right.
It's just that I'm afraid of your face
When I finally get it out;
I'm afraid that no matter how I feel
You'll look me in the eyes and say no.

Take my Hand...It's time I showed you the truth.   
11:09pm 12/11/2005
 

Inspired by Japanese Gum by Her Space Holiday.  There's also a few other lines/songs.

Turning through the pages

Of my endless writing book,

Looking for the answers

To save me from myself.

Aiming high but ending low,

There’s nothing I can do;

I’m running from my own shadow.

Haunting my own dreams,

Watching my own existence;

In the end it doesn’t really matter.

Lurking in the distance

With an ever watchful eye,

Clouded by resistance,

If you only knew.

Reaching out to help me

Never sounded so good;

You took a chance,

But it’s too late now.

I appreciate your help,

But even you can’t save me from myself.

Making the World a Better Place...Share the love with someone Today!   
10:48am 01/10/2005
 
Soooo...thinking about a special someone and not knowing what gift to give them? Make them a CD of happy songs to make them smile. Make sure you don't forget the perfect poem.
 
Whenever you feel sad and blue,
And nothing can make it right;
Whenever you feel all alone,
With friends close by your side;
Whenever you need someone's help,
And they can't be there for you;
Listen to these helpful songs,
And know that you'll pull through.
 
Okay, okay, I know. I'm really cheesy. But I decided I had to add a little something extra, and this poem seemed the perfect fit. Yes, I really did write it myself and didn't steal it from somewhere else, that would take away it's genuity. Geesh.

Bits and Pieces   
09:20pm 19/09/2005
 

When one line comes and the rest don't follow, shorten you're poem ^_^

Journey to no where,
Lost deep inside,
Taking me somewhere,
Nothing to hide.

Closing my eyes
To sooth the pain.
Then seeing your face
Only drives me insane.

 

Let's mix it up a little bit...

Somewhere some day
We can do it.
Somewhere some day
We'll be together.
Somewhere some day
My dreams will come true,
But 'til then I'll stick to
Only dreaming of you.



Editing existing songs, or futurize it.

You are my sunshine
(You mean everything to me)
My only sunshine
(You're my only one)
You make me happy
(You were there for me)
When skies are grey
(When everything went wrong)
You'll never know dear
(I can't even explain to you)
How much I love you
(Exactly what you mean to me)
Please don't take my sunshine away
(I'd die without you, baby)

Take Me Away   
09:10pm 16/09/2005
 

Music rules the world, your life, everything.  No matter what happens music can help you.  Hopefully my song will too.

You make me feel like
a summer breeze;
you pick me up and
take me away.
You've always made me
feel this way,
you've always known
you do.

(Chorus)
Let the wind blow, (take me away)
Let the rain fall, (soak me to the bone)
You lift me up, (take me away)
So fill me up, (soak me to the bone)

One day, not far away
I'll finally take you away
Then you'll know what you
do to me
I'll make you finally see

(Chorus)

Take me, you take me away (x4)

The Starting Line   
10:44am 27/06/2005
 
mood: amused

I haven’t done this in a while…hmm…


What this is to me
Is more than words could mean
I guess dreams do come true
This song itself is living proof

 

Let them say we're crazy.
What do they know?

Put your arms around me, baby, don't ever let go.
Let the world around us just fall apart.
Baby, we can make it if we're heart to heart.

 

Just what do you think you deserve
Because when you had the chance, for romance
You burned it at both ends
I guess I'm not sorry in the least

 

Few scenes from my life or moments mean more to me

Than our fine nights,
I remember like yesterday,

The time of my life.

 

Tell me what you thought about
When you were gone and so alone
The worst is over
You can have the best of me

 

Try and feel,
Try and listen,
Try and think of what you're missing,
Try and look into my eyes.
TRY

 

Can I sell this sunrise, in return for a sunset? yeah..
Can I just be here one more day, until my sunburn fades away?

 

When happiness is based on lies
Its so hard its too hard to tell the truth

 

You’ve made a lasting impression
And if it doesn’t feel right
Then I just can’t go wrong
I’ve been sleeping with the lights on
So if I wake in the night
Your picture is clearly in sight

 

Stop expecting change,

He's just a lost cause that you're waiting on.
Take a look around, you could have anyone.
So leave undeserving him.

mood: sore

So tonight I'll sit and pick apart your pictures
And overanalyze your words
But the truth is that I've never fallen so hard
It's taking everything in me
Just to forget your sweater so far

 

Wondering how I could get so deep
And you can still get to sleep
In vain I blame my trembling on the cold air
And I can't hide that I relied on you

 

Cheer up my friends all say...
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine
You're better alone anyways

 
Every friend we ever had in common
I will sever the tie with you
You can thank your lucky stars
That everything I wish for will never come true


Your remorse hasn't fallen on deaf ears
Rather ones that just don't care
Because I know
That you're in between arms somewhere
Next to heartbeats
Where you shouldn't dare sleep
I'll teach you a lesson
For keeping secrets from me

 

Consider this song a testament
Of my devotion to your saccharine scent
And to be completely honest
You're not like all the rest
You're not like all the rest

 

She prays for days
When boys mean she's protected
And she wants someone to see her
She needs to hear she's beautiful
She's beautiful

 

These dreams we've had
Have never made you cry
And I am not a twinkle in your eye
But I've got to get out of here

 

And he can't understand
How everyone goes on breathing when true love ends
His mother whispers quietly...
Heaven's not a place that you go when you die
It's that moment in life when you actually feel alive
So live for the moment
And take this advice, live by every word
Love is just a hoax so forget anything that you have heard
And live for the moment now

 

But this time I’m alone,

And I don't see those stars
I'm not your star?

Isn't that what you said?

mood: emotional

I've had so many chances
Turn my back and I ran away
I've had so many chances to see you

 

Don't tell me it's not worth trying for
You can't tell me it's not worth dying for you

 

And you're, you're not here
And I can't stop pretending
That you're forever mine

 

You think you're on top of the world
When all the eyes are on you
Just wait until your heart breaks
And you'll know how I felt

 

I’m drunk off your kiss
For another night in a row

This is becoming too routine for me
But I did not mean to lead you on

 

No matter how happy you are
you'll always want more
no matter how stupid I get
you'll always want more

 

I've been waiting for a good day
I've been holding back long enough
I've been hurting to tell you some things
it's not the falling of the temperature
that's making all our bones run cold
it's the breeze you make
the presence felt when you're around me

 

Can you tell
that I'm losing myself
I think I'm trying too hard to
let it show
to let you know
don't trace your footsteps back to me

 

You’re hiding something, ‘cause it’s burning through your eyes
I try to get it out, but all I hear from you are lies

 

In the bright of day it might seem like the stars are gone

They never leave,
they come back when the sun moves on

It’s over now

Stop Crying Your Heart Out   
10:19pm 21/02/2005
 
mood: confused
you say i only hear what i want to.
you say i talk so all the time so.

and i thought what i felt was simple,
and i thought that i don't belong,
and now that i am leaving,
now i know that i did something wrong 'cause i missed you.
yeah, i missed you.

and you say i only hear what i want to:
i don't listen hard,
i don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
or to anyone, anywhere,
i don't understand if you really care,
i'm only hearing negative: no, no, no.


so i turned the radio on, i turned the radio up,
and this woman was singing my song:
lover's in love, and the other's run away,
lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay.

some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
dying since the day they were born.
well, this is not that:
i think that i'm throwing, but i'm thrown.

and i thought I'd live forever, but now i'm not so sure.

you try to tell me that i'm clever,
but that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.


you said that i was naive,
and i thought that i was strong.
i thought, "hey, i can leave, i can leave."
but now i know that i was wrong, 'cause i missed you.


you said, "you caught you 'cause you want me and one day you'll let me go."
"you try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know you're just scared to lose."
and you say, "stay."

you say i only hear what i want to.

mood: whatever
I'm never shy but this is different
I can't explain the way I'm feeling tonight
I'm losing control of my heart
Tell me what can I do to make you happy
Nothing I ever say seems to come out right
I'm losing control of my heart

And I wish that I could be
Another better part of me
Can't hear what your thinking
Maybe if I just let go
you'd open up your heart

But I can't read you
I wish I knew what's going through your mind
Can't touch you, your heart defending I get left behind

I can't reach you
I wish I knew what's going through your mind
Can't touch you, your heart protecting I get left behind
No no no no no
No no no no no

I like you so much I'm acting stupid
I can't play the game I'm all intense and alive
I'm losing control of my heart
I'm not supposed to be this nervous
I should play my hand all cool and calm
I can't breathe
I'm losing control of my heart

And I wish that you could see
The other better parts of me
Feel this fire I'm feeling
Then you'd see me in control
And baby then you'd know

But I can't read you
I wish I knew what's going through your mind
Can't touch you, your heart defending I get left behind
I can't reach you
I wish I knew what's going through your mind
Can't touch you, your heart protecting I get left behind
No no no no no

I'll Never Forget You

mood: whatever

Ya know your kisses seem to set me free
(It's like wow)
Cuz when we touchIt's such a rush
I can't get enough
It's like, it's like wow
</font>


Sick and tired of this world
There's no more air
Trippin' over myself
Goin' nowhere


I am your mirror image,
I'm all you left behind
You made me what I am,
Then who the hell am I?

 

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

 

So I wait for fate to find me
A ball of string unwind me
Uncomfortable as a centerfold

 

So don't be a liar,
don't say that "everything's working"
when everything's broken.
And you smile like a saint
but you curse like a sailor
and your eyes say the joke's on me.

 

I stand in your doorway
Your world looks so enchanting
And all I have to offer you is this
Just a stupid little love song

 

(It's a long wait) is there anything
(For an answer) worth looking for
(Is there any news) worth loving for
(Is there any word) worth lying for
(Is there trauma) is there anything
(Or a struggle) worth waiting for
(Am I missing) worth living for
(Was the body found) worth dying for

 

I'm wasted by the way she moves
No one ever looked so fine
She reminds me that a woman only got one thing on her mind

 

Black and white picture of her on my wall
I waited for her call, she always kept me waiting
And if I ever got another chance I'd still ask her to dance
Because she kept me waiting

For your veiwing pleasure I have chosen 4 songs that I have placed in separate entries.  Much easier to read.  These all have extreme importance right now, so IM me and ask if you wanna know what the importance is. *sigh*

I used to think
I had the answers to everything
But now I know
Life doesn't always
Go my way, yeah...

Feels like I'm caught in the middle
That's when I realize...

[Chorus]
I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

[Verse 2]
I'm not a girl
There is no need to protect me
Its time that I
Learn to face up to this on my own

I've seen so much more than you know now
Don't tell me to shut my eyes

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time

A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl
But if you look at me closely
You will see it my eyes
This girl will always find
Her way

I'm not a girl
(I'm not a girl don't tell me what to believe)
Not Yet a woman
(I'm just tryin to find the woman in me, yeah)
All I need is time (All I need)
A moment that is mine (That is mine)
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman
All I need is time (is All I need)
A moment that is mine
While I'm in between

I'm not a girl
Not yet a woman

For your veiwing pleasure, #2!

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

Kiss me fool, if you care
If your words have any meaning.

Playing it cool is so unfair
Why this veil of secrecy?
God forbid, your friends found out what we did
Why can't someone like you be someone like me?

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

Touch me fool, if you’re allowed.
I'll be dancing in the corner
It's so cruel to play it proud, take your hands and cover me.
I'm aware that all in love is fair, but that's no reason to make me feel this way.

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
Can't you see me standing staring out from the distance,
Hear my cry if you'd only listen...
Out of focus, into me and you

And it hurts me so bad to deny it, oooh
These feelings are out of control.
Do you know what it's like to want something so bad...
And then having to let it go?

And it hurts me to know that this time in our lives...
So soon will be in the past
And you spend it pretending your playing it cool.
Never knowing,
Never knowing,
Never knowing what,
Never knowing what we should've been.

Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Tell me what does it mean to be alone?
You've got me wondering if I'm good enough.
Pretty enough, giving enough, special enough


Tell me who should I be to make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me?
Who should I be? Who should I be? Ooooh...
To make you love me.........?

For your veiwing pleasure, #3!

I won't talk
I won't breathe
I won't move till you finally see
That you belong with me

You might think I don’t look
But deep inside
In the corner of my mind
I’m attached to you
I’m weak
Its true
Cause I’m afraid to know the answer
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster


I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that’s true
So I will not hide
Its time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

You don’t know what you do
Every time you walk into the room
I’m afraid to move
I’m weak
Its true
I’m just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know u met me?

I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that’s true
So I will not hide
Its time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true


I know when I go ill be on my way to you
The way that’s true

I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that’s true
So I will not hide
Its time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

mood: crushed

For your veiwing pleasure, #4!

 

I almost got drunk at school at 14
Where I almost made out with the homecoming queen
Who almost went on to be miss Texas
But lost to a slut with much bigger breastes
I almost dropped out to move to LA
Where I was almost famous for almost a day

And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost loved you
I almost wished you would've loved me too

I almost held up a grocery store
Where I almost did 5 years and then 7 more
Cause I almost got popped for a fight with a thug
Cause he almost made off with a bunch of the drugs
That I almost got hooked on cause you ran away
And I wish I woulda had the nerve to ask you to stay


And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know it


You kept me guessing and now I'm destined
to spend my time missing you
I almost wish you would've loved me too


Here I go thinking about all the things I could've done
I'm gonna need a forklift cause all the baggage weighs a ton
I know we had our problems I can't remember one

I almost forgot to say something else
And if I cant fit it in I'll keep it all to myself

I almost wrote a song about you today
But I tore it all up and I threw it away


And I almost had you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And I didn't even know it


You kept me guessing and now I'm destined
to spend my time missing you
And I almost had you [x3]

I almost wish you would've loved me too

mood: tired

I'm reading your note over again
There's not a word that I comprehend,
Except when you signed it
"I will love you always and forever."

 

You've been asking me to bleed.
It seems these kinds of questions
They come too easy to you now.
Your lack of shame comes naturally.
I should not be surprised.
I should have seen it sooner.

 

Continually failing these trials
but you stand by me nonetheless
and you won't let me sink
though I'm beggin you,
I'm begging you

 

You're not so happy.
You're not secure.
You're dying to look cute in your blue jeans,
but you're plastic just like everyone.

 

Close lipped
another goodnight kiss
is robbed of all it's passion,
your grip
another time, is slack
it leaves me feeling empty.

 

I want to give you
whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it what I need?
I want to give you
whatever you need.
What is it you need?
Is it within me?

 

I'm starting to fashion an idea in my head
where I would impress you
and every single word I said.
Would come out insightful or brave or smooth or charming
and you'd want to call me

 

I'm dying to know
do you do you like dreaming of things
so impossible or only the practical

 

My hopes are so high,
that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me,
so I die happy.

 

And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
