As i look bac on older times
posts about love and eternal happiness
i think about it now and think "you are such a cock"
all these stories of love and hope
yet im STILL a single mum
In my poems and songs
i really truly loved you
and i loved you, and you too
but now i hate you all
such a sad little girl
a fool, fooled by lovers
never really understood it until
i was left here all alone
forced to stand tall
forced to be strong
forced to do it on my own
with no one to help me up
now i look back and think of the good times
how happy i must have been
and i hope and i pray for the day
when i'll feel that way again

My way home
To put it simply this is about a current situation in my life that i dont wanna miss out but my mind messes with me and plants doubt where there shouldnt be any... I dont believe im good enough and my mind tells me that i should live, and die... alone... i dont want that... It takes less than 2 seconds to wipe my doubts which is quite surprising... must be something really special... its too good to be true... but i cant help but ask myself what i did that was so good... and on the other hand i cant help but wonder when it, like everything else... will be ripped out from under my feet...
if you dont know what its about its coz ur not meant to know...
Chorus:
blinded by the lies of my own self esteem
caught in the middle of a broken mans dream
struggle to find my way back home
to your arms so comforting
stuggle to find my way home again
struggle to find my way home
Verse 1:
walking alone down a one way street
and im walking the wrong way round
lights flashing horns are blaring
people screaming "move out the way"
you've done nothing to make me doubt
still i find it hard to see
always living in my own illusion
that you'll never really be with me
pre- hook:
too good to be true and
even though you are
my mindset still tries to trick me
fills me up with what ifs and maybe's
make me say things wrong
make me screw it up
so then you will dissapear
and leave me on my own
chorus:
verse 2:
i know that your not perfect
but to me your close enough
with you i lose all my inhibitions
and i can actually be myself
i feel like i dont have to hide myself
cause you will happily take me as i am
and you dont run away in fear
like everyone else seems to do.

Two hearts
im in an extraordinarily creative mood... from drawing portraits to writing songs... its crazy but i'm using it to the max while its here lol...
Chorus:
two hearts
beating to the same drum
praying for the day
to finally come
two hearts
beating to the same drum
longing for the day
when they can beat as one
Verse 1:
syncronised in mind and body
not quite heart and soul
close enough to keep us warm
but still too far away
close enough to see it
close enough to touch
left with hopes and dreams
at this time of maybe
Pre hook:
my heart is in your hands
your heart is in mine
but things are still complicated
it was just the wrong time
my heart is in your hands
your heart is in mine
close enough to touch your face
but too far to intertwine
chorus:
verse 2:
when i think of you i smile
awesome's what i think of you
you see me and its worthwhile
coz you think im awesome too
longing for the day
when i see you again
even if that day is years away
patiently i'll still wait
Pre Hook:
Chorus:
Bridge:
Two hearts syncronised
two hearts intertwined
two hearts reaching out
two hearts touching stars
two hearts baby me and you
two hearts will pull through
two hearts joined as one
two hearts forevermore

Count me out
im in a writing mood and im back in my old boots... guess this is where im destined to live for the rest of my life... :'(
CHORUS:
You can just count me out now
nothing left here for me
nothing left to lose
only thing i was fighting for was you
so baby just count me out now
i got not fight left in me
im on the edge of it all
all i need is one last push
VERSE ONE:
i'd like to say i wish that
i'd never ever even met you
but you and i both know
that would be so far from truth
i wanna wake up every day
without raindrops on my face
but every day is a rainy day
as long as your away
PREHOOK:
sorry seems to be the hardest word
for you to believe in
but i'm willing to say it a million times
until you finally believe in me again
CHORUS:
VERSE TWO:
I lay here staring baby
staring at your picture and
i dont know what to say or do
so now i just cry at knowing
all the hurtful things i said to you
if i could take it back
and baby just trust you
i'll do anything to prove i would
PRE HOOK:
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
count me out baby count me out
cause im already down
my heart was damaged but
i still gave it to you
so count me out baby count me out
cause im already dead
my mind made up fantasies
to make you leave my life
so baby just count me out
CHORUSX2:

Princess
this is about a combination of two emotions... one emotion is a one night stand i had and how it made me feel when he basically turned on me as soon as he got what he wanted and how i feel about it now... and the other emotion is about someone i like now and yeh...
CHORUS:
I just cant be your one night stand
baby its not who i am
I'm a princess who wears the pretty dress
and i need to be loved
I'll never again be a one night stand
wait for the real thing
if i have to wait for an eternity
thats ok with me
VERSE 1:
I thought you were a maybe
but you were just for the night
i need someone who'll still be there
when the night turns to daytime
who'll still want me in the morning
instead of leaving me
with the answering machine
and sitting here wondering
PRE HOOK:
never again will i be
a one nighters fling
i need some loving care
need more than a friend
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
i know your not the one for me
but maybe he could be
he gets the way i think
better than the rest
i may be a bit of a handful at times
but you got what it takes to tame me
to help me build bridges and move on
from all the darkness in my past
PRE HOOK:
CHORUS to fade:

CHORUS to fade:
Safety net (i love you)
Anyone who knows me knows what this is about... I'm trying so hard to be quiet but i cant ignore my feelings and when i try to shut them out they start eating away at me... so i decided to write them down...
CHORUS:
I cant stand knowing i hurt you,
wish there was a way to show my truth,
I really am a safe bet for you,
coz i already told you i loved you too,
wish you could see it in my eyes,
the pain whenever i cry,
need you in my arms so tight,
where the feeling is just right
VERSE 1:
you came into my life like a hurracane baby
didnt even see ya coming
thats the best kinda love they say
the one that comes without a warning
so now i've given myelf completely
and i cant seem to get enough
wanna know baby what youre thinking
do i have what it takes to be your love
PRE HOOK:
never gave myself up so easily
it usually takes so much longer than this
never gave myself up for a maybe
but theres something about you i dont wanna miss
VERSE 2:
I know that you feel it too
its written in your eyes
everyone can see it baby
so why you tryna hide
me and you together baby
would be so heaven sent
you lovin me and me loving you
dont get much better than that
PRE HOOK:
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
I wanna be your safety net
baby let me be your safe bet
i just wanna be your safety net
baby please let me be your safe bet
let me be the only thing in your life
that always makes total sense
let me be your safety net baby
coz you know i'll pass the test
CHORUS:
PRE HOOK:
CHORUS X2
OUTTRO:
I could love you for the rest of my life
baby just let me try

Beautiful Screwup
DONT ASK WHERE IT CAME FROM... I DONT KNOW LOL
She's a wonder how she's so beautiful
yet she's such a broken child
she's so beautifully broken
such a beautiful screwup
never seems to get it right
no matter how hard she tries
always lets everyone down
makes themm all walk away
all alone in a cold dark room
dreaming of what coulda been
dreaming of the sun on her face
of one simple day of peace
shes a beautiful screwup
cant seem to catch a clue
always messing everything up
keep her away from you

Criminal Mastermind
had everyone fooled
with your snap tongue lies
was it only me you lied to
or everyone in your life
you tried to squirm out
blame it on the meds
blame it on the stress
even blame it on your ex
but no one else is at fault
this all falls on you
so when everyone leaves
will you finally see truth
karma will come for you
maybe not today
but someday not far away
you'll get whats coming to you
i speak not of ill will
i speak not of hate
i'm just saddened by you
and your evil ways
one day you will feel true pain
and it will be of no fault but your own
when the whole world turns from you
and leaves you all alone..
