don't drop your arms

highs and lows
with me you'll always find your way home
i'm the map traveling on your back
you know me like the back of your hand
take my hand into yours
let your fingers fill the empty spaces between mine
we'll go through highs and lows together
i'll be your high when you're low
i'll never be far behind
when you come out from your cache
i'll be here with open arms
to guide you home
and we'll take the scenic route

I can't think of things to write about anymore




bridges are made for crossing over an obsticle that is preventing you
from reaching the other side
bridges collapse
bridges rust
bridges bust
one bridge has caution signs
all over it
go through at your own risk
one car doesn't want to detour
certain bridges aren't meant to be crossed
fixed
mended
so drive back home
but don't turn off your headlights

ready..set...GO!

i'm turning my four ways off
because for now on i'm living in the fast lane
i'm not turning back
i'm not speeding up
i'm going my way or the highway
and i'm only hitting the breaks at red lights
because everyone needs to stop once in a while
or pull over to a gas station
build up the energy again
then go go go
many ways to go with these directions
if an obstacle gets in my view
i'll run it over
because for now on its my way or the highway
nothing can slow me down

what is real, just a dream





how can i keep my happiness
when people are changing
nothing is staying the same
the world won't stop spinning
for just a few minutes
time won't stall
just so i can wrap my arms around someone
for a little longer
i need a sense of hope
a little less change
and a lot of what i want
it sounds selfish i know
but don't take it the wrong way
at times
i can only find peace
with a pencil in my right hand
a piece of paper infront of me
and sometimes that isn't enough
because nothing is staying the same

you can't




can you see me crying?
can you hear me?
can you?
can you feel me weaken?
can you see me?
can you?
why can't I find you anymore?
why don't you love me?
why are you hurting me inside and out?
can you see my pain?
can you show me what i'm doing wrong?
can you?
will you reach out and try to grab me?
when i'm gone
can you see me now?
can you?
