Only Child

The love they gave
Haunting her
Her privileged days
Destroying her
The rain pours down
As heavily
As she weeps in her bed at night
Attention is a double edged sword
Got hooked on one side of it all
A special girl gets everything she wants
On demand
An only child
Grew up
To find herself alone
Without a place that feels like home
A bitterness inside her soul
Too much of good can do you harm
The life she loved
Did not prepare her soul for reality
The sun won’t shine just ‘cause you want it
You’ll have to wait like the others
Wait like the others
Just like the others
Be like the others

Clocks
09:33

Standing and watching life
Slowly passing by
Upright, staring outside
Witnessing
As life unfolds in silence
Far away it shows
Ticking clock it goes:
“You should do something!
Go and discover
All the things you wanted to
Do the things you promised to, you know
It’s on you, yes it’s all on you!”
Clock is ticking
I am waiting
Church bells ringing
I am waiting
Worlds are turning
Time is passing
Ready, pacing, watch me waiting
Praying I find the strength
To wake up
Wishing I’d find a way
To escape my mind
Holding me hostage

So long, so long since we said goodbye
So long, so long since I held you tight
So far are the days since we were close
It's hard to believe this ever was
I'm trying to live without you here
I'm hoping that you still think of me
My dreams are filled with so much love
The love I was always longing for
Feeling as if the time has come
To finally forgive you
Closing my eyes, loving my time
My life with you
Fading away
How could you
How could you say you don't want me
Just to tell me you want me
So long, so long you let me down
So long, so long you let me drown
Letting go
Setting free
Moving on
Moving on
What we shared will always remain
Deep in my soul
Close to my heart

Wish I Didn't Miss You

Same old story is back again
She′s not a lover, she's just a friend
I′m sick and tired for you
To blame on me
Now you think it's funny
Now you wanna spend your money
On girls but you forgot when you were down
That I was around
Call my lover, hang up, call again
What in the world is happening
Listen in, but don't yell at me
Isn′t it ironic
All you wanna do is smoke chronic?
Boy, you forgot when you were down
Who was around
I can′t eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn′t miss you anymore
I can′t eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn′t miss you anymore
Memories don't live like people do
I′m sick for ever believing you
Wish you'd bring back the man I knew
Was good to me, oh, Lord
Every time you say you′re coming
Boy, you disappoint me, honey
How well you forgot when you were down
And I was around
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn′t miss you anymore
I can′t eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn′t miss you anymore
One of these days, it's gonna happen to you
Missing a love like I′m missing you
One of these days, when your dreams come true
That's the one that′s gonna do it to you
One of these days, it's gonna happen to you
Missing a love like I′m missing you
One of these days, when your dreams come true
That's the one that′s gonna do it to you

On My Own
05:58

Forgotten how to be alone
I'm searching for any meaning
To this life
Now that you're gone
Just don't want to smile
Cause nothing makes me smile anymore
Try I might
To appreciate the beauty that surrounds me
Try to recall
Precious moments that we shared
There's no more tears, tears left to cry
And I have tried
To keep the saddest times alive,
To have you hurt me again
But I can't remember anymore
Can't recall what was before
I carry this numbness
It makes me feel paralyzed
Trapped in a dream
Of us being close
An illusion of love and hope
Of us being close
An illusion
My heart's longing to be at peace
On my own
To be happy alone
To remember how to smile
And to learn how to cry
So show me how to smile
And teach me how to cry

Dancing In The Dark
07:12

Down and up and up and down
As her head spins round and round
Sent response with no reply
Talented at stretching time
Craving this but dreading
That it may not turn out
As she wants
Stars, she’s flying
Through the clouds
Made of dreams
Of loving him
Dangerous
She cannot allow herself
To fall again
Losing all at once
Down and up and up and down
The pretty petals fall as she yearns
For their advice
She fears
Her intuition has been fooled
By hopeful premonitions
Anticipation grows inside
Dusting off the diffidence
For just a moment
She’s content
Stars, she’s gliding
Through the clouds
Made of dreams
Of loving him
As dangerous as it all seems to her
Admiring from afar
Dancing in the dark

Finding Closure
03:21

Suddenly I see the sky above me
And realize that it’s alright
Suddenly I can breathe the air again
The burden has lifted
All around there’s motion
From the ground and up towards the sky
I open up my heart and feel the magic
I allow it to flow through
No one knows
What you and I have been through
Too long I was stuck with you
Under your surface
Suddenly I see no clouds above me
And realize that I’m alright
Suddenly I can breathe the air again
The burden has lifted
Suddenly there’s no more sadness
How was I able to forget?
All the mess you managed to cause me
My path to closure has come to an end
