Hungover Skies (draft 2)

Nothing like dark November skies
to bring me down
into this depressing state
I often long for those summer days
when it was just me an you
without a care in the world
what happened to that?
what happened to that?

Everything that we once had
just left us now
hear me scream it out
I often wonder if this is the end
all the good times and memories
just thrown away like that
do you even care?
did you ever care?

[chorus]:
Make it a point to
let the rain washyour spirits away
and I'll be the one to
still catch you everytime you fall
and I know you don't want it
but I just can't take it
I can't live through another week like this

I came over and stopped by your house
but you weren't home
I should have known
I'm losing all those feelings for you
as the days grow shorter
and nights move faster
is this really the end?
This can't be the end

[chorus]

This is all just a hangover
of everything we used to be
just like every other time before
but this time I'm leaving sober
I'm bursting through these clouds tonight
I don't care if you come with me
You can't hold me down forever

[chorus]

When I'm With You (1st draft)

wrote ths today. Could use some work in my opinion
When I'm With You-

Ya know I'm not the kind of girl to fall for anyone
and while I don't believe in love at first sight
it was like a flash
my whole life fell out of control
you came into my life
when I needed you the most
and I know that we just met
but man you're just so perfect
it's like you picked up all the pieces of my broken heart
and gave me the chance to go back to the start
Oh--

[chorus]
Cuz When I'm with you
it's like nothing really matters
and he's just a distant memory
and I think you know that it's true
someday we're gonna live it up
I can see us being best of friends
You brought me back to life
you showed me that there's still
liht at the end of the tunnel tonight
So don't go
you make everything feel so right
When I'm with you

You know this time I think i'm really moving on this time
Even if I haven't got your number yet
You are truely the boy of my dreams
I just gotta wait and take it slow
cuz you're the one I want, now I know
You put truth in the hopeful les I'd tell myself
Meeting you this year was a dream come true
oh---

[chorus]

Boy you make me want you
oh so bad it hurts
You exceed everything
that he never was
You've opened my eyes
I'm finally free
You have no idea
just how much you mean to me

[chorus]

Emma (draft 2)

This is the latest song I've written, which concludes all the ones I have finished so far I'm working on some other ones though that are almost done. The song is called Emma

Well hey there Emma
tell me how have you been?
hope you're having fun
stealing everything from me
Well please excuse me now
while I let all your so-called secrets out

Hey Cameron
haven't heard from you in weeks
I see you don't even know me, anymore
Tell me why do you waste your time with her?
When she's so fake
I know you won't believe me
but she's just a box full of lies
wrapped in preppy little bows
and an overdone smile
She pulled you in, and you fell for her hard
but you don't even have a clue
she may seem so perfect on the outside
but I know what she thinks of you

Can't you see she's using you
don't you see when she lies to you
she smiles at you as she walks by
then goes on talkin her smack

[chorus]:
Her name is Emma
and she just a bunch of lies
you think she's so innocent
but i see it in her eyes
She's got you wrapped around her finger
yeah she's one of those girls
she'll blow you off just like all the rest
leaving you depressed as she moves onto the next
oh why can't you just see
I'm the one you want, yeah
I'm the one you need
but I guess you'll never learn
oh, no you'll never learn

Hey Emma
I see through all your lies
the guilt in your voice is a dead give away
and the way you can't make eye contact
You're just so obvious
how is he so oblivious?
I know your tricks, don't rub them in
go out and have your fun
but I swear, I'll get him in the end
guess no one ever told you that liars never win

Well if you look real close
boy, it's not that hard to see
she'll take ovver your life
so there's nothing there for me
then as she leaves with your heart on her sleeve
it's like you don't mean anything
she'll go tell her friends everything
she'll talk behind your back
and still you just don't see
and that's what keeps her coming
boy, run while you still can

Well can't you see she's using you
don't you see the way she's so two faced
guess that makes her just like you
I guess you were meant to be after all

[chorus]

and you know she's just so jaded
if she'd really go back to you
after the way you cheated her
and you know she's just so jaded
'cuz she's just, like, you

Her name is Emma
you used her long ago
you thought you'd get her best friend
what does she see in you?
She was just a pawn in your game
and now she's back to do the same
oh I guess you'll never see
If love was a game, dude
you were drunk all the way
but since you and I are through now
guess I'll leave her here with you

His name is Cameron
and he thinks she's so perfect
when she's nothing but a time bomb
waiting perfectly intact
He thinks shes here to solve his problems
while she goes creating more
I'll let him go remake all his same mistakes
oh why can't he just see?
I'm the one he wants, yeah
I'm the one he needs
but I know he'll never learn
oh, no he'll never learn
you will never learn

Love Sucks (draft 2)

Love Sucks

How could you say all those things to my face?
Oh all the false hope you'd assure me was right
For once in my life I'd thought maybe
I'd finally found someone real
someone who I could tell my problems to
someone who would always be there
but now the smoke's starting to clear
and I can see the only problem I've got is you
Is you
whoa

[Chorus]:
How did I fall in so deep,
when you're so shallow
Why are you the only one I see,
when you don't give a damn 'bout me
How do you always seem so sincere
when you don't even care if I'm gone
You're nothing but a bunch of lies
You're not worth my time anymore
but still, why are you my only one?
Why do I waste myself on you?
Why are you so frikkn selfish?
What do I see in you?

I always gave you everything
and all I got were your drama and your lies
You could always look me in the eye
and still never listen to what I had to say
it's all so jaded
you're so jaded
Now you really did it this time
I'm just done with you
There's no way that we'll make it through
this time, this time
Stupid boy, you'll never be mine
I've come to finally accept it
Now you're gone, soon everything will be fine
Just fine
whoa

[chorus]

You're nothing but a dirty little lie
just go home now, I've had enough
I'll spit on your shoes
as you walk out the door
Just go away and leave me here
while you go off with some dumb whore
Maybe she'll be as fake as you
I'll force myself to just move on
if it's the last thing I do
Cuz I would rather die right now
than waste more time on you
On you
whoa

[chorus]

So I'm letting you go now
Love sucks, I've had enough of this
maybe someday, when I finally move on
I'll see you all alone at an all time low
and then I'll have to laugh
Stupi boy, you'll never learn

Mr. Bipolar (draft 3)

Don't diss the title :P

Seems I don't even know you, anymore
You always say you care
but when I look, you're never there
and then I know you're off with her

When we talk, you always seem so sincere
you always make me feel special even when I know I'm not
I never get why it's always on and off with you
one day we're best friends
the next it seems you hate me
And I know this is all in my head
and I know we always make it through
but I'm sick of your crap
it's all so jaded
and I love you
but you feel so faded
It's not like you're unpredictable
and it's not like its the first time
and still I always fall for you
Everytime

[chorus]:
Why is it so hard just to talk to you?
and why won't you answer my calls?
You say things are cool with me and you
But you never listen when I need you most
and I've had enough
(i just can't take it)
this's getting too rough
(why do I care?)
You make me wanna scream
(I'm so pathetic)
can you please just tell me why?
Guess it all just depends on the week

It's like everything you said
never meant anything at all
the ones that made me experience love
for the first time
It seems you never pick up
half the time I call
If you really cared
as much as you say
maybe you'd at least say bye
as I walk away
You say you miss our talks
well if thats so, why is it that
I'm the only one who ever makes the effort to call
You're such a hippacrite
why can't I just let you go?

[chorus]

You know I suck at revenge
and I could never stay made at you
but you've pissed me off time and again
I'm sick of all you're tricks
why can't you just be mine?

[chorus]

The Art of Letting Go (draft 1)

The Art of Letting Go

I couldn't feel any worse
as I lay here stunned by your lack of words
it kills me to thnk, after all we've been through
that none of it ever meant, anything to you
all the other girls, they gossip about your crap
All the secrets I would've kept perfectly intact
All I want is to be the one
the one you open your heart and mind to

[pre-chorus]:
For once in my life, everything felt right
with you by my side, I thought I'd be alright
but if only you could see me crying now

[chorus]:
You broke me down
when I was at my best
You're selling me out
for all the ones you can't trust
If only you could see
what you've been doing to me
I'll never be the same again
thanks for all the memories
I wish I could forget
Now if only I could learn, to let go

If you only knew how I really feel
It's not what you think
no, it's not what I said
All I wanted was to be someone there for you
someone you could always turn to
talking and laughing every night
and even through, every fight
There was always something about you
something that always seemed to pull me through
But now as I wait anxiously for your response
I see that everything we had is now, suddenly gone

[prechorus]
[chorus]

Why can't things just be the same?
why must I be the one to blame
'cuz you can be you, and I'll be me
and together, we used to be
best of friends, like no other
it felt like we were made for each other
Even if I always knew
it was always just me for you
it still brings me down to see us fade out
so many days, so many nights
wasted on you
wasted on you

[chorus]

The Best Thing (draft 2)

The Best Thing

I like that adrenaline rush feeling
I can't get from anyone but you
and I love the way you stick with me
after all I put you through
I like the way you always take the first step
when I'm always too afraid
It really takes a true man, to shine the way you do
You may not be perfect, but your imperfections perfect you
and truely you're the only one
that can really see through mine

[chorus]:
You make me feel so on top of the world
right when I'm thinking this could never work
and you're the only one who can bring me up
when I've fallen to the floor
and everything means so much more
when it comes from you
I never dreamed I'd be here and now
with you, you are the best thing in my life
oh you are the best thing

I really think you deserve better
but still you followed through
and saw me like no one did
I always feel so inferior to you
with every word I miss
but I just love the rush
I get when you say stuff like this
You're so smart and talented in every way
then there's me, the screw up chick
who just fell into play
into your life, right when you needed a friend
And I know you know, like you, I'll be here to the end

[chorus]

I'm just the girl
who can never think of the right words to say
and you're the only boy
that really understands me but stays with me anyway

[chorus]

Where Are You Now (draft 2)

One of the first songs I've written (other than ones in like 4thgrade), Where Are You Now

It's not how you think
thought I made that clear
I'm not that same chick in the striped black and pink
I'd never sell you out
I just want you here
with me
You were everything I wanted in a friend
Yeah just a friend, is that too much to ask?
it hurts to know your ready for this to end
Please take off the mask
can you see me crying now?

[Chorus]:
You said you'd always be there for me
where are you now, where are you now?
You say we're good now, put the past away
I see through your eyes, and all the lies
You gave to me
You're so fake
and just look what you've done to me
honestly how could you be
so two faced

Who knew that just one guy
could put me on top the world one night
and heartbroken in tears the next
are you really worth all my distress?
Yeah I know what you really think
about how I'm just this annoying freak
and how I'm so jaded
when really you're the one who's hated
I see through your lies and your sick little games
but theres something about you
that brings me back to you every time

[chorus]

And even though I can see through your clever talk
and the way you pretend to care
Sometimes I still can't help but smile
thinking you are really there for me

Dreamcatcher (3rd draft)

This is the most reccent draft of a song I wrote called Dreamcatcher

What the hell?
What just happened?
those things you said
they left me flying
I've never felt
this way before
but now, with you around I feel
like nothing can stop me now
too bad it was all in my head
like you have no idea
I'm sorry but I just can't see you as
just an average friend

[Chorus]:
Get these images out of my head
I need someone, to get it through to me
that never happened, you don't really feel that way
Just gotta learn to keep my feet on the ground
When you send me through the clouds
I know you're not the one, still I just can't help but think
Guess I just needa learn to move on (move on)
and let go (let go)

And everytime
you give me the shoulder
It makes me feel
like I'm left for dead
and I know it's really nothing
but still, my life
is a constant roller coaster
No one's ever made me feel
this way, before
But I know that if you ever knew
You'd think I was crazy
and you might just walk away

[chorus]

When we talk I feel so
untouchable
unstoppable
But when I think it through
I'm going nowhere
we're getting nowhere
back and forth in your stupid games
but why if I'm so sick of this
why do I keep coming back for more?
I just can't let you go

[chorus]
