A Life Made Up in My Head

quickly passing by a glance of what perfection is in my mind
in the moment- i see petals getting trampled
as you walk down the aisle
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves

and i know I'll see you again
in the heart of a lover is the closest friend
breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in

I've been looking for that face in every face that see
and again my mind is wandering to the places we'd meet
the bench at the end of a long winding path
were we kiss and you say words you don't want to take back
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
and i know I'll see you again
in the heart of a lover is the closest friend
breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in

quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
still I hold on to hope
my casting rope is leading farther from whats real
I'll never be satisfied, only be occupied
looking for a girl from a glance and a life made up in my head

Sleeping Hearts

we sleep alone in separate beds

and we only rely on instincts instead

of our hearts, they sleep alone with us

when there's no one to love

then its easy to give up



you can love me

I can be your everything

you can take control of my heart

just by listening

you can be happy

you could be happy again

I'll do better from here on in


misunderstanding, are you listening?

come on now, lets work this out

I'm tired of the arguments

they repeat like a needle that's stuck in one place

exhausting all the common phrases

and character words that rearrange

the way that you feel about me

when our mouths are at war our hearts stay asleep

its easier to stay asleep than to live out the scenes from your bad dreams


you can love me


I can be your everything

you can take control of my heart


just by listening

you can be happy


you could be happy again

I'll do better from here on in
