Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


It's been over a year since we first broke-up,
I tried moving on but I haven't had much luck.
It was the worst day of my life when I lost you,
It was the first time I ever used a tissue.
My eyes were red and sparkling like the moon,
I didn't think that you would leave me so soon.
Maybe you'd have stayed with me if I had spoken just one word,
But I left you walk away and I went unheard.
If I could, I would undo that last mistake,
'Cause on that very day I felt my heart break...
You're stuck in my mind like a permanent stain,
No matter what I do I can't erase the pain.
At times it feels like you're right beside me,
I turn to look at you but you're what I don't see.
You're like my favorite t-shirt I just can't clean,
Because it'll make me feel like we were just a dream.
I'd rather have my body covered in black pen,
So I don't have to forget about you and start again.
And I remember the taste of the first kiss that made me fall in love,
It's a permanent stain I just can't get rid of...
I gaze up at the stars and think of how beautiful you are,
Regretting the day I let you stray too far.
If I had the chance to start all over,
You would be in my arms permanently and forever.
Some days I swear I still hear your voice talk,
I realize it's in my head so I go for a walk.
The clean air cleanses my soul and I wish you were there,
It kills me inside knowing you don't care.
I would give anything to hear you say you still love me,
It would be music to my ears and make life more easy...
You're stuck in my mind like a permanent stain,
No matter what I do I can't erase the pain.
At times it feels like you're right beside me,
I turn to look at you but you're what I don't see.
You're like my favorite t-shirt I just can't clean,
Because it'll make me feel like we were just a dream.
I'd rather have my body covered in black pen,
So I don't have to forget about you and start again.
And I remember the taste of the first kiss that made me fall in love,
It's a permanent stain I just can't get rid of...
What would it take to see you one more time,
To say what I want to say and drop the perfect line?
It's been too long since I last seen your face,
That alluring picture I just can't erase.
A last kiss is all I need, to know if you still feel the same,
Because to me, you're a permanent stain...
You're stuck in my mind like a permanent stain,
No matter what I do I can't erase the pain.
At times it feels like you're right beside me,
I turn to look at you but you're what I don't see.
You're like my favorite t-shirt I just can't clean,
Because it'll make me feel like we were just a dream.
I'd rather have my body covered in black pen,
So I don't have to forget about you and start again.
And I remember the taste of the first kiss that made me fall in love,
It's a permanent stain I just can't get rid of...
It's been over a year since we first broke-up,
I tried moving on but I haven't had much luck...
