Do You Know?

Do you know that I'm gonna love you forever?
I want my hand touching yours everyday.
I want to feel your heartbeat with my cheek
And I wanna be the one you trust.

Do you know that you'll make me sigh forever?
I want to kiss your shoulder everyday.
I want you to rest in my arms in the evening
And I want you to be the one I trust.

Do you know that your thoughts bring me closer to you?
I want to know how you feel everyday.
I want to know why you think what you do
And I want to fill the space of your needs.

Do you know that your words make me smile?
I want to read your handwriting everyday.
I want to hear your voice speaking and whispering
And I never wanna miss the chance to receive you.

Do you know that my fears won't last forever?
I want to share new ones with you everyday.
I want to tell you when the old ones go away
And I want to do it with our heads on the same pillow.

How?

How can I love you so much
That my heart is breaking
Breaking, breaking;

How can I love you so much
That my chest is shaking
Shaking, shaking;

How can I love you so much
That these tears keep falling
Falling, falling;

How can I love you so much
That my soul is crawling
Crawling, crawling;

How can I love you so much
That I reach darkness
Darkness, darkness;

How can I love you so much
That our nails are tarnished
Tarnished, tarnished?

Nobody Hears Me Cry

Nobody hears me cry behind
My black bedroom door

Nobody sees my heart ache
Or shatter in the cold

Nobody knows I'm scared to death
Of failing to be worthy
Of anything at all
Anything at all

Nobody feels me dying inside
Of loneliness and fear

Nobody cares no matter where
I never belong here

Nobody knows I'm scared to death
Of failing to be worthy
Of anything at all
Anything at all

Nobody makes me feel better
With nice words or smiles

Nobody fills the emptiness that
Is sentimentally mine

Nobody knows I'm scared to death
Of failing to be worthy
Of anything at all
Anything at all

Angry Hurt

People are angry with me
For something I somehow
Did to them
I took something away
That they somehow
Believed was theirs

People are hurt by me
For something I must have
Done to them
I gave them something
That they somehow
Find unworthy

When you take away
The image of yourself
And provide to all
Honesty

You are left with
Nothing.

Except people that are angry
And hurt by who you aren't.

Nothing at all...

I wish the universe that expands inside my head
would just take a day to recognize that really

It's nothing at all.

I wish the world I see in overwhelming waves
would just settle down and let me breathe reality

Is nothing at all.

I wish my angels would sing a song of redemption for me
I wish the clouds would come and cover my aching heart
I wish each hearbeat would break my soul in such a way
That I have no other choice but to be normal.

I wish the things I think are damn important
would take a moment to show me that really

They're nothing at all.

I wish the tears I cry in quiet confinement
would dry up for eternity and prove once and for all

There is nothing, nothing, nothing!
And all of this

Is nothing at all.

I wish I wouldn't care about so many stupid things
I wish my mind could handle all of the thoughts in my head
I wish that people would stop trying to change me
I wish I knew how to love the people that don't.

The people that don't...

How Real

Everything.

That’s what we share

Gliding over mountains

With the cold fresh air

How strong it is

The wind we’re in

How wildly thrilling

The current that spins

Everything.

What we have to lose

Interlaced tightly

Tumbling softly through

How brash it is

The debris we’re in

How painfully chilling

The wounds on our skin

Everything.

That’s what you are

Increasing the light

In the heart of my star

How real it is

The love we’re in

How quieting to have

A place to begin

Everything.

The hope we invest

Radically frightened

Of the warmth in our chests

How daunting it is

The place we’re in

How frightening to think

Of returning again
