Live your best life

I only change for those who let me But they're too quick to forget me Already out the door As I want to give them more I'm only as happy as I choose But everyone tries to make me They're always trying to please me Instead of telling me what's wrong Am I too sentimental?  I don't ask too much.  Do I sound too certain?  They worry I will get resentful.  All the things they ask of me When in the end, I let it be I've never been one for convincing But they all say I'm a charmer It's only because I run warmer Than what they knew before I don't fake my emotions I'm no manipulator And if you got to know me,  You'd see I'm not a taker I don't fight, I won't fight I just laugh and I cry And I try real hard To make it look I'm alive.  Maybe I hide too much They can never tell my bluff I'm not misunderstood The moment they get me They're not sure if they should. Hope by hope I drip away Fading colour on my lips One by one I lose ...

I was a saint I was a lady I acted like none of it even fazed me.  I was everything you'd need. I was a soulmate I was a friend I could be counted on well past the end. I held your hand.  Don't blame it on me Because I still care I drink the pain You hide the sorrow That's how we make it until tomorrow You weren't there I didn't see you We never made it out that evening. Dark clouds above. No more bleeding rainbows, love.  Guy on the stage: I'm scared to see you I'm so deep in the well of disappointment I don't see a way out.  So don't put this on me,  Because I still care There's always hope There's always fear No sense in wishing we were still here.  You took the friends I took the house You wanted the fence At the expense Of our hearts. 

I've bled out all the colours No rainbows in the dark But when I hear your voice Frozen coals could spark I can't bear to be here but There's nowhere else to go I'd better take it slow  Where does it go?  Where did I go? If not here, then where?  If not now, then when? I keep coming back here, again and again. 

We’re a pair of parallel lines You’re just like me We’re on the same path But we don’t ever meet You talk to all my friends  but me I guess I’m not that nice after all You You’re in the house up on a cloud Me I’m on a mission.

I’m doing my best to Untangle the ropes Struggling to get untied I blame the ropes but Who would have rather died? You’re the punisher But I condemned myself Am I ready to stop suffering The pain I think I deserve? Am I ready to be free of it all Or is there more for me to unearth? Am I entitled to move forward Or have I trapped myself? I buried the truth and I locked up my feelings I am truly sorry I left you reeling... Unresolved.

It could be true that I’m heartless I know that I’m not easy to talk to So if I give you an out, Then baby, go on and take it If you give me your heart Chances are that I’ll break it Keep my name off your lips They were only good for a kiss How did I end up like this?
