sometimes i look at you
and wonder what I'm thinking
i wonder where we're going
are we floating?
are we sinking?
the gravity of this
the fear of the fall
the push from my heart
the rush of it all
the fear of past failures
the need for some truth
the walls all around us
the warmth you exude
it's enough to make me crazy
but crazy i understand
crazy isn't that hard
after all, you're a man
nothing i can't handle
a game i won't lose
that is if you keep looking
keep searching for the truth
the truth behind my eyes
the ones you try to read
the answers to your questions
you just wait and see
all this could be worth it
it could all make sense
all this time won't be a waste
stop straddling the fence
oh the possibilities
sometimes i look at you
and i wonder what this means
i wonder what im thinking
by holding back my feelings
i refuse to turn away from you,
though it might save you the trouble
of finding out just want it means
to live with double trouble
the me they all see
and the me i know i am
the freak between the sheets
the one to break a man
the person i've become
due to better or worse
the girl behind the mask
the one that feels cursed
the one that can do anything
with the right one at my side
the one worth the world
if you take the time to find me
god i can't wait til you get over this one.
i know it's gonna take a while cuz she's so fresh-faced and doe-eyed
but boy I was too before you ruined my life.
im hoping i was right about how dead you are inside.
cuz nothing else could explain what's happened to my pride.
and boy do i wish it was just some collateral damage
but we both know how hard it's been to manage
between the hate and the lust
the fear and depression
at least i no longer need your attention
your affection however, ill crave til the end
still missing the days i called you my friend
a time like no other
one ill never have again
one ill never hope to find
one ill search for til the end
i know in my heart
it was too good to be true
but you were the exception
we'd broken all the rules
DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL - Rapid Hope Loss
You called to say you wanted out.
Well, I can't say I blame you now.
Sometimes you've got to fold
before you're found out.
Well thanks, thanks for waiting this long to show yourself, show yourself.
Cause now that I can see you,
I don't think you're worth a second glance.
So much for all the promises you made, they served you well
and now you're gone and they're wasted on me.
So much for your endearing sense of charm, it served you well
and now it's gone and you're wasted on me.
I guess that all you've got is all you're gonna get,
so much for, so much more
I guess that all you've got is all you're gonna get,
so much for, so much more
Do what you must if that's what you wish,
I can't be a party to this
you have a sense that you were born with
You'll find a way to make things right.
Yellowcard - Sure Thing Falling
Of all of the places I've looked
And all of the pictures I took
One of them's here with me now
I'm finally finding out how, sure, things, fall
All sure things fall
Dashboard Confessional - Hands Down
Breathe in for luck.
Breathe in so deep.
This air is blessed, you share with me.
This night is wild, so calm and dull.
These hearts, they race, from self-control.
Your legs are smooth, as they graze mine.
We're doing fine.
We're doing nothing at all.
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me?
So I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.
The words are hushed, "let's not get busted."
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions.
"Hey did you get some?"
Man that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can't hear.
So we can get some.
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.
So won't you kill me?
So I die happy.
My heart is yours to fill or burst,
to break or bury, or wear as jewelry.
Whichever you prefer.
Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember.
Always remember the sound of the stereo.
The dim of the soft lights.
The scent of your hair, that you twirled in your fingers.
And the time on the clock, when we realized "It's so late!"
And this walk that we share together.
The streets were wet, and the gate was locked,
So I jumped it, and let you in.
And you stood at the door, with your hands on my waist.
And you kissed me like you meant it.
And I knew...that you meant it.
Have you ever thought,
for just one fucking second
that your life affects
someone other than you?
Have you ever suspected
that I've got the impression
that I can't mean a damn-thing to you?
Maybe I'm crazy, and a little bit lazy
But I know I'm too much woman for you
the grass ain't always greener
but this is much clearer:
i dont want to see the hate in you
Point it at someone
who wasn't your someone
who wouldn't have given
the world up for you
Aim it at anyone
that didn't give up everyone
just to try
to see things through
Scared and alone
with no place to call home
with nowhere to lay your dead heart
you'll keep playing this game
but things can't stay the same
so my dear, you've forced us to part
And all the regrets,
the overwhelming
upsets
would be worth it --
if you could just see
that without me, you're no one
and it's not worth bein' lonesome
but now, you'll never have me
You could cut it with a knife, the tension inside.
The pain that keeps you from living your life.
And you're too scared too face it.
Afraid of what you'll see?
Could it be as bad as losing me?
They say pick your battles.
Don't rush. It's a war.
They ask "Is it worth it anymore?"
And maybe they're right. I've just lost my mind.
But you saved me from the war inside.
A battlefield inside,
scarred by lies.
A fight to the death
between a heart and a mind.
The never-ending questions,
always about you.
The never ending stirrings,
reaching for some truth.
I ask you for the freedom
to lay my mind to rest.
I need to accept this.
We couldn't stand the test.
Because time can't be blamed
for all this destruction.
No one to blame for all this disfunction.
Well tonight baby,
I'm Giving it to you.
The anger, the guilt.
I want something new.
Because it's not about where this road will take us,
Cuz with you baby, everywhere I'd go.
And there's just no point in letting this shake us,
cuz I'd follow you, baby
till the end of the road
