My Happily Ever After Is You


Look all around, it's a big big world,
And all alone I feel so small.
I could tell you I'm fine on my own,
But sadly enough, that'd be a tale too tall.
Right, left, right, left,
In, out, in, out.
Kick, scream, kick, scream,
What's this all about?
I'm sorry I never could be enough,
I'm so so sorry that I never am enough.
I can stand tall all by myself,
I'll show the world that I'm tough.
There's a million ways I can mess this up,
I never can keep my feet on the ground.
I'm a tad too scared to say I like you,
But my aching heart goes round and round.
My outward appearance never does justice,
With my snug headbands and too big sweaters.
You found me through the dust and fog,
Took my heart and said "I can make this better".
So these melodic tunes I hide behind,
I know you're the one I've been waiting for.
To sweep me off into a better life,
My happily ever after is what I wanted and more.
My happily ever after is YOU.

Confessions of a Teenage Heart


You're gone, I'm here,
Movement is movement.
I don't know what I'm thinking,
As I type this and see 'sent'.
I'm always a mess,
People claim I'm crazy.
With a heart too big,
And judgement that's hazy.
I don't know what to feel,
I don't really care.
But still I don't know,
When life's unfair.
I breathe in the air,
But then you steal it from me.
My heart is torn and crumbled,
All I want is to be free.
I write this 'cause I love.
I write this 'cause I miss.
I write this 'cause I hate,
I write this 'cause I diss.
Strong, strong, strong,
Is all I ever show.
You always knew my weak side.
My weakness I let you know.
Reality scares me a little to much,
Make it all go away.
Confessions of a teenage heart,
I live it day to day.

Quiet, So Desolate


In the dark there's light,
Oh, I can see your face.
Quiet, so desolate.
I'm in your place.
Black satin sheets,
White barren walls.
There goes my baby,
And the stuffed bear falls.
I realize now after so long,
You and your shit, I don't need it.
So by the end of the end,
Take your memory, 'cause I'll delete it.

All the Fear That Lies Within


Look at life,
With big ol' owl eyes.
Look past the truth,
And on to the lies.
You can keep all your hate,
All the fear that lies within.
I have a love of my own,
And it crawls beneath my skin.
You say we're too young,
You say it's way too fast.
I know I'm not crazy,
And I know this will last.
Bracelets with names,
Green and blue.
Every moment we're apart,
Is a moment I miss you.
Come into my bed,
Stay just one more night.
Under the covers we'll lay,
As you hold me tight.
I don't want to close my eyes,
For I know you'll be gone.
All alone in my room,
When the night reaches dawn.

Unneeded Words On A Page


I'm always the let down,
With my tied together smile.
I tell everyone the world's just fine,
As I sing to keep myself in denial.
I wish people could see who I am,
And to see how I feel.
Because deep down inside,
Everything goes downhill.
Nothing ever seems to last,
I'm always left of center.
Everyone burns with fire within,
I'm the cold that comes with winter.
They say there's hope for the hopeless,
But I'm way pass that stage.
I feel that my thoughts,
Are just more unneeded words on a page.
So tell me I'll be alright,
That everything is dandy.
The lies drip from your mouth,
As sweet as candy.
Life doesn't reach forever,
But I promise I'll love you that long.
People say I'm crazy, stupid, and way too young,
But deep inside I know it's not wrong.

He'll Let Me Go Never


I always want to be with you,
Who knew it'd be so hard to be alone?
Bury me six feet under,
And kill me with stone.
I'd rather be with you right now,
Than to be in this God forsaken town.
You're the air that brings me life,
And the light that shines when I'm down.
The thing is,
I love you so much.
And when you're gone,
I ache for your touch.
He said he'll love me forever,
I said always,
And he'll let me go never.

You Say "Speak Now"


Each morning I wake up,
I look in the mirror.
What I see everyday,
Couldn't get much clearer.
I'm invisible to you,
But the whole world can see.
I smile, I laugh,
Could this be?
You've picked up these pieces,
And you've mended my ways.
You showed me how to breathe again,
And I hope that it stays.
I'm invisible,
And you say "speak now".
I close my eyes and smile,
As I say "show me how".

Daniel Kind of Rhymes With Major Fail... Right?


You tried to save the ruins leftover,
Of the mess you created.
Forever and always you promised,
You took 'em back and I faded.
Does he know how you told me,
You'd hold me until you died?
I'm sorry I ever believed you,
I'm sorry I ever tried.
Take back all the shattered memories,
You're the last thing on my mind.
I'm better off without you anyway,
Someone better won't be hard to find.
So take this as a final goodbye,
I no longer want to see your face.
My heart, oh heart,
It's time to forget and erase.
