Lyrical


Sometimes I like to write songs.
It helps me not feel as lonely, hurt, sad, depressed, or angry and helps me express my joy, happiness, love and excitement. Every one is a little piece of me put into words with a rhyme or two. 

Enjoy.

Outshine

All the memories should fade
Like the pictures on old TV screens
My broken parts should fix themsleves
All stitched up at the seams

The light that you shone
Into my dark shadowy places
Should fade to a memory 
Along with the faces

Chorus:
But I'm sitting alone
Haunted and torn
I can't be this strong
My defenses are worn
As the sun dims
And lights glare from passing cars
I fear for the future
When the streetlights
Outshine the stars

Move on they say
Like wind through the trees
Someone better will come
Who thinks your the B's and E's

But like a ship on the sea 
With waves crashing and falling
My emotions are tossed
Everytime I hear you calling

Chorus:
So I'm sitting alone
Haunted and torn
I can't be this strong
My defenses are worn
As the sun dims
And lights glare from passing cars
I fear for the future
When the streetlights
Outshine the stars

I'm alright, I'm just fine
I can sing without crying
I'm just fine, don't you worry
I can stand without falling

But it was easier with you here
To keep the stars burning
It was easier with you here
Before you left without warning

Chorus:
So I'm sitting alone
Haunted and torn
I can't be this strong
My defenses are worn
As the sun dims
And lights glare from passing cars
I fear for the future
When the streetlights
Outshine the stars
