Take Action List

Hey, so in response to recent events and conditions in modern times, i think it’s appropriate that some level of thought be allocated to reduce our stress levels. Personally, i find stress to be effort consuming, and unpleasant. It also leads to numerous negative things such as insomnia and palpitations, which are definitely not cool or fun. If anyone does read this, maybe you should try this too, it’s called a take action list. You list things that can stress you out, and then underneath them list ways to accomplish them effectively. While I’m not posting my personal one, although it really does matter if i did because people don’t actually read this but…i urge you to do it. It was fairly helpful. Ready? Go.

When the Red Lights change to Green

There’s something really strange about love

There’s an aftertaste that you can’t quite put a label on

There are second thoughts, and change of hearts,

And I change my mind again,

Because love is like the seasons, but you always have your favorite one,

And, mine, is, here, with you.

 

I speak of things I don’t quite understand at the moment,

And maybe I’m a little bit confused,

My glasses are the tainted shade of rosy colored happiness,

But don’t try to make me see, or teach me lessons I don’t need,

I want to burn my fingers touching all the tiny flames.

 

I’m watching through the window from the outside,

Pretending I don’t want to see what I really know is bad for me,

But something tells me this could be the day,

When all the red lights change to green,

And all the colors in between

Dance like shadows on the walls of grey,

And all I really need to be

Is who I ever want to see,

In the morning light and the mirrors in my mind,

But you are like the softest bite,

That leaves the deepest scar of teeth marks you can still see in the dark.

And, mine, is, here, with you.

Think of Me

Take me to the grave of angels

I wanna know what its like to fall

Kiss me with your bleeding lips,

I wanna know what its like to taste your blood

 

You tell me all I want to hear,

But is it ever the honest,

Never the honest truth

 

Let me lay my hair down,

Let me know that I can trust you,

Let me cry upon your shoulder,

Let me see inside your dreams,

If they ever think of me,

If they ever think of me.

 

Take me to the ring of fire,

Dance with me upon the flames of sin,

Sing to me the songs of love,

And teach me how to breathe you in.

 

You tell me all I want to hear,

But is it ever the honest,

Never the honest truth

 

Let me lay my hair down,

Let me know that I can trust you,

Let me cry upon your shoulder,

Let me see inside your dreams,

If they ever think of me,

If they ever think of me.

 

I wanna know what you wanna say,

I wanna know all your mistakes,

Let me kiss your every scar,

Let me wish you for every star,

Let me see inside your dreams,

Maybe then they’ll think of me,

Maybe then they’ll think of me.

Well, folks. That’s it. It’s 12:10 a.m. on June 29, and so this makes it over. Although it never started. See how complicated something so simply nonexistent really is? I don’t like you….much.

Home.

Is it really  a home if it’s not someplace you want to come home to? Not where you want to rest your head? You have no other place you belong to, but this is nothing you want to belong to.

Competitions

You throw your sparks but you never watch the flame

I think it’s funny how the boys all know your name

Your dancing cause you got it and you know that you got it

And everything you got is twice what they want

 

Woah…

Woah…

Competition is the fiercest form of danger,

And we do it with a smile,

It’s a fight to the death for something that is surely worth the while…

 

You hit your mark but you never follow through

You walk the halls just to watch them all follow you

You can do that cause you got it and you know that you got it

And everything you got is twice of what they want

 

Woah…

Woah…

Competition is the fiercest form of danger,

And we do it with a smile,

It’s a fight to the death for something surely worth this..

Surely worth this while…

 

*ding, ding ding*

1, 2, 3

She got her!

A major upset in the ring folks,

A major upset…

 

Woah…

Woah…

Competition is the fiercest form of danger,

And we do it with a smile,

It’s a fight to the death for something surely worth this..

Surely worth this while…

You Won’t Change

Will you get it when your pride is hanging off a cliff by a tiny little thread?

No, you won’t even care because you won’t even understand,

What you make yourself worth, and what you stoop to,

Will never cease to amaze but I don’t have time to waste on you…

 

Let me live, and let me breathe,

Just back up offa me,

You don’t wear my shoes,

And you won’t change the life I choose.

 

You say my beliefs are, completely out of line,

But you don’t know where the line is, when you can’t stand and you are blind,

I’m sure that you’re in there somewhere, wanting to be saved,

But your pride will be the bitter pill, if you can be that brave,

I don’t know.

 

Let me live, and let me breathe,

Just back up offa me,

You don’t use the lens I use,

So it’s no wonder we don’t see it the same way..

You don’t wear my shoes,

And you won’t change the life I choose.

Things I Learned Freshmen Year

1. People change. A lot. Not because of anything in particular than time and environment.

2. Meeting new people can still be just as easy as ten years ago on the playground.

3. Sometimes, you find comfort and satisfaction in the littlest things, or even people you thought were insignificant.

4. Always add people’s names on to compliments, because it’s really awkward when a person you weren’t talking to says thanks.

My Wrongs

Oh, I know,

There’s a voice In my heart,

That wants to say I’m sorry for my wrongs,

And I know, actions speak louder then words,

But  wrote you this song,

To tell you that I, thought about you today,

And I wanted to say I was sorry,

I wanted to say I was wrong,

For saying those things and acting that way,

I don’t know what I was thinking, don’t know who I thought I was,

But I know who I am, and who I am can admit when they didn’t do what was right.

Coming and Going

Theres, a thickness in the air,

Can you feel it everywhere?

It’s coming and going

Like your heart,

Scratching the surface but hitting me so hard..

Hitting me so hard…

 

But I

Dont want

To be

The girl to fall for you

And I

Don’t want

To know what its like to lose

Everything

Everything

To the silence

 

The rain on a Saturday,

Hits the windows so hard, they bend and shake

And even when it finally stops,

When it finally….stops

Leaves puddles as reminders of the storm.

 

But I

Dont want

To be

The girl to fall for you

And I

Don’t want

To know what its like to lose

Everything

Everything

To the silence

 

You go through the motions but don’t ever see

How you affect what you touch (including me)

I don’t want to lose,

I don’t want to lose…

 

But I

Will be

The one

To fall for you,

And I

won’t know

what its like to lose

Everything

Everything

To the silence

How to Fear

They taught you how to count your time,

And how reason but you, don’t know how to rhyme,

They taught you how to live within the lines,

The ones on your face can tell that.

Oh…

Do you wanna help me?

I can’t hear you breathing cause you don’t act like you’re alive.

Do you wanna notice me?

Do you even want to care?

 

Chorus:

And why’s it so hard, to admit that you’re wrong,

Forget the past and past mistakes,

Learn how to count your stars,

Take the chances they told you not to take.

 

They can teach you how to dot your i’s

But never how to open them,

They can teach you how to stay so quiet,

But never how to love out loud,

I want to be the one,

To show you how to fear,

And still live everyday, just the same.

But I need to show me that you care.

Do you want to care?

 

Chorus:

But why’s it so hard, to admit that you’re wrong,

Forget the past and past mistakes,

Learn how to count your stars,

Take the chances they told you not to take.
