When 4 years means nothing

This is honesty
You tried something else
Now I have to
I say this with no vindication
Truly honestly deeply
This smile on my face is real
and I can't throw that away
I say this with no anger hostility or regret
I say this only with fear
Don't let 4 years mean nothing

Your words didn't fall unheard

Let's not play semantics

Graveyards and fountains lead me to a balcony
And from up here you all look so pretty
I read your words better than I read faces
We are both victims of our bipolar mind erases

What did you hear this time that made you so mad
I am extrinsically tied to you forever for good or for bad
and this may not be what you want to hear
If only you could feel the view from here
feel and not see because we are what we do
This isn't about me this isn't about you
Im not the same person I was in the rain
and it wasn't the beach that made me this way

Maybe the picture you got wasn't quite clear
If you are judging by the words you see here
They are my release, they mean everything yet nothing
This is a revolution of sorts can you feel it coming

Don't listen to what they say
When you already know the answer

Everything that makes me sick

In some ways I'm glad it was you
It's easier to forget, when you act like you do
And as I spend nights searching for forgiveness
You'll spend yours being completely oblivious
Don't say you feel bad, we know it's not true
It's weird I almost felt like I knew you
but noone could ever get through as you sit atop your pedestal 
you were lost long before I came along
And in the end all I can really thank you for is this song.

"You're not him, you're better"
what I meant was at breaking me down.

You called me while I was writing this

Give me something to read
Words to make me smile and to get me through the day
Because it's been far too long, since I've heard your song
Give me your attention
and your promise
We've been planning for the future for so long
And I'm tired of lists, 
So Let's run away
We can start tomorrow today
Give me your ears
And hear what I'm saying
Catch the lines I'm dropping
Let's move forward by going back.
So give me your hand 
and take mine
and give me my ring back
put it where it belongs.

I'm Yours

Today I was praying for forgiveness and guidance.
My own worst enemy by Lit starts playing from the room next door.
God works in mysterious ways.
And I'm pretty sure he likes rock and roll.

Despite their claims to the contrary, Tiggers don't really like everything.


we look so good
we're so funny
so witty
full of hope and life
our smiles are contagious
everyone wants to be us
we live wildly
they live vicariously
and through us
the lucky ones
will find
tragedy.
