Remember me?
I’m the one you can’t see
I’m a shadow in the dark
You can’t ignore my shadow
...

I will disregard all my feelings and emotions for you
If it will make you happy
There’s nothing I won’t do
As long as if it will make you happy
...

I opened up my soul
And I let you in
But you tore it up in a minute
You don’t see
...

Our secrets have torn us apart
Why did we ever start?
We had our rough beginnings
Hiding what we kept inside
...

Dear Grandma
I hope this letter gets to you up there
To show you how much I care
I think about you every day
...

Can’t get these memories of you out of my mind
Can’t leave these memories behind
Tell me what these memories are all about
...

Stand me up once
I'll probably get over it
Stand me up twice
Well, that's just isn't nice
...

I often wonder why you lie
Why you do the things that you do?
Why you just didn’t tell me the truth?
Would have been too hard for you
...

Our relationship is like a roller coaster
We have our highs and lows
And our ups and downs
Turns and twists, too
...

At lunch he sits all alone
Some might say he’s a loner
But he’s no stoner
He isn’t in on the latest cliques
...

Two hearts beating
Both with passion and grace
Yearning to be together
Tensions heating
...

I don't need your pity
I pity the fool that pities me
You’re just a fool
You have no soul
...

Take my heart
Keep it as you will
Away from chill
Safe in your arms
...

I knew why you left me
I always knew
I didn't want to believe it
In your silly little games
...

I don’t believe you
Your words are untrue
You say one thing
And do another
...

I don’t care about your fancy cars
I don’t care about all your scars
I don’t care that you once were bad
Or how many girls you had
...

I'm young and sometimes naive
Sometimes I like to believe
Believe that this is real
But it's all so surreal
...

Why are we here?
To fulfill a dream that wasn’t even there?
Wondering around just to find where we belong?
Where we know all along
...

The end is near
But don’t you shed a tear
It will all be over shortly
Life as we know it will suddenly disappear
...

She screams
She screams for all her shattered dreams
She screams to get away
Hoping for that day
...
