Monsters, Demons and the Like

wrote this last year, the sad part; it still means something.


Chasing year old dreams & nightmares
waving goodbye and singing, "Stay fine"
no one sings like you
no one sings like you
Grieving the fate of longed for hope
one sided fear opposing love that's clear
no one runs like you
no one runs like you

You Paint
A delicate picture of seasons
and something about her
You Make
the fragile seem solid
And you could make it come crashing down

Never losing a single stride
the worthless past and questions asked
no one hurts like you
no one hurts like you
contemplating the simple things
Always answering "You better stay fine"
no one smiles like you
no one smiles like you

Right now, you don't know
who I am, who you'll be
Right now, you can't see
who you are, who I'll be
Back then
we were friends
nothing more, nothing less
Back then
isn't right now
we can't stop, what's going forth
no, we can't stop
what's in front of us

The Town Near The Valley

I saw a shooting star

I saw a speeding car

I heard a voice on the radio

and I thought of you

I saw an empty park

I walked home in the dark

I wished ten different things

when I thought of you

You slept a hundred days

but dear, nothing has changed

except for the shade of my hair

'cause I thought of you

I sat near a tree
but your voice I couldn't reach
I walked for three long days
and I thought of you

I saw a small blue house
I stood alone in a crowd
I prayed all day and night
cause I thought of you

I slept way past dawn
in hopes to sleep away this song
I dreamed more than I ever have
while I thought of you

I'd run a thousand miles

just to prove you wrong

I'm not so unreliable

just working on where I belong

Something to be Reckoned With

And you know one day you'll see
everything clearly
and you know one day you'll be
perfectly wrong
and you know one day, one day we'll be
everything you wanted

do you know what you want?
do you know what you've got?
do you know, do you know

And someone has gotta be
strong for the rest of us
you know how much we are weak
and nothing every fills us, fills us
Oh, won't You come and fill us

...

do you know what you want?
do you know what you've got?
do you know, do you know

you never saw the brokenness that made us
you only saw the light shining through the darkness
I was swallowed by my pride
while you swallowed yours

you know what you want. you know what you've got.
