I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your warpath
Lost your balance on a tightrope
Lost your mind tryin' to get it back

Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days?
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you?

It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been.
You're still an innocent,
You're still an innocent.

Did some things you can't speak of
But at night you live it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you would seen what you know now then

Wasn't it easier in your firefly-catchin' days?
When everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful runnin' wild 'til you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you?

It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did.
You're still an innocent.

Time turns flames to embers
You'll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too
Lives change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to be brand new

It's alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent.
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent.
You're still an innocent.

Lost your balance on a tightrope.
It's never too late to get it back.

this is for the people who laughed when i
said i know what love feels like

well soon enough there's not going to be much more to laugh about.

why is it so cool to not care?

girl: "if you dont like me then i dont care."
and what shes really thinking "i hope you notice me now"
girl: "i dress the way i want!"
and what shes really thinking "i hope you notices me now"
girl: i dont have to try
and what shes really thinking "i try to make you notice me"

i hate myself!

i wish we could go back to the days where chasing was just a game and not a sport.
when dancing was for fun and loving someone was never a scary thought.
when kisses were as bad as a STD and holding on to your friends was never hard to do.
fights never broke out and neither did hearts.
why cant we just all sit on the play ground and tell stories about what we were going to do once we were all president.
whenever you never worried about someone cheating or being jealous.
why is it that once we grow up everyone is out to steal your cookies.
no one is aloud to see you cry anymore
and momma just doesn't want to hear "it"
if growing up is the difference between being a princess for halloween or a slutty cop then don't even bother packing up my stuffed animals.

my immortal

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase


I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

all i want to do is trade this life for something new

you make me sick!
you walk around saying you know what love is all about
but no!
step back
you broke her heart
look down
you dont deserve her!
the only reason she cant move on is because
the hardest part of ending is starting again.
