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.


Been a month already,
Time is flying by.
My heartbeat is steady,
Only became irregular when you said goodbye.
I thought it was just pretend,
You always tried to pull this on me.
Never realized we would end,
My eyes were closed and I couldn't see.
Is this what it's like to have nobody to hold?
A forgotten ghost.
I'm lonely and my heart is cold,
If you're somewhere and hear this, listen close.
I don't know what to do,
Laying in my bed all alone.
Tears falling that are meant for you,
Got your number pulled up on my phone.
Should I call you up,
Or let you go?
It hurts knowing I couldn't be enough,
And that I won't see you tomorrow.
You asked if I'm okay, I said I was fine,
I lied, 'cause I'm far from being alright.
You're inside my head, you're overwhelming my mind,
I finally see, it's you I need with me tonight...
Days drag along,
You're stuck in my head like my favorite tune.
God, this life feels all wrong,
Didn't realized you could vanish that soon.
I could have been the right guy,
I never gave up the fight.
Remember when we couldn't say goodbye?
Now you're so far out of sight.
Memories are all that I have left,
These diamonds can't be taken away.
In my head safe and sound is where they shall be kept,
Where I can recall them every day.
I don't know what to do,
Laying in my bed all alone.
Tears falling that are meant for you,
Got your number pulled up on my phone.
Should I call you up,
Or let you go?
It hurts knowing I couldn't be enough,
And that I won't see you tomorrow.
You asked if I'm okay, I said I was fine,
I lied, 'cause I'm far from being alright.
You're inside my head, you're overwhelming my mind,
I finally see, it's you I need with me tonight...
One, two,
I'm severely missing you.
Three, four,
I'm waiting for your knock at my door.
Five, six,
I'm shuffling through all our pix.
Seven, eight,
Save me from this emotional weight.
Nine, ten,
Come back to me so we can start again...
I don't know what to do,
Laying in my bed all alone.
Tears falling that are meant for you,
Got your number pulled up on my phone.
Should I call you up,
Or let you go?
It hurts knowing I couldn't be enough,
And that I won't see you tomorrow.
You asked if I'm okay, I said I was fine,
I lied, 'cause I'm far from being alright.
You're inside my head, you're overwhelming my mind,
I finally see, it's you I need with me tonight...

Thanks a bunch! I'm glad you can relate. That's part of the reason I write. So others can relate. Ah, thanks. That part was a brilliant line, indeed.
