In the Garden
I wish I could try to understand
I wish you could try to hold my hand
Sometimes you make me hurt
Sometimes I lose my shirt
Don't play it off, don't give it away
Don't discount what happended today
Sometimes you make me think
Sometimes I don't even blink
I don't even want to be your friend
I just want this to come to an end
Slip this on
Blow me off
Sometimes you forget
Sometimes it's all I get
If I walk with you in the garden
Will you kiss me on the cheek?
"Untitled"
Speak to me in my own words
Tell me what you think you've heard
I miss the sound when you breathe
I wish that you could walk with me
I force a smile for you
So come on over
And help me forget her
It took me so long just to understand
That I need you here to hold my hand
No reason for reminding
That its time for deciding
I bury it for you
It takes more than a face
To mend these hollow ways
He isn't back to stay
Because He never went away
Nostalgia for a Past Life
This is what I used to be
This is how I used to live
This shell that I've become
Is all you had to give
Maybe it's a lack of self confidence
That keeps me from feeling good
Maybe I've lost all dignity
Or all that I could
Slipping down the ladder
Has become my occupation
Maybe it explains
My current situation
Sometimes I take myself for granted
And forget just who I am
But it took just a little effort
On your part
And you can never be to me
What I tried to be to you
Did you enjoy watching me
Fall apart
Use me now
Forget me later
She is everthing
That I made her
If I could catch my breath
I'd give it back to you
If I can live a lie
I do it all for you
But even if I cared
I'd never have the nerve
To try to say it
To your face
