I'm still here she's a guard like one lonely crowon a rooftop, looking downward fix my hat at a rakish angle to hide my eyes she won't see meand what i'm feeling never guessing who i'm being I cool my ground and what i stand for now i'd dance with another girl just to get her jealous to get her to notice but who am i ? a boy in pinstripes who grew up too fast spill the cold blood, where leaves are blowing i cover the wound so she'll never notice Feel it fall right through your handsNothing is safe where you can stand cut my tie run and watch the stars spin in the sky they're still with you when its over Like Ice-nine the seed of your pain will spread everywhere and everyones infected we're all connected so heal the heart before the world freezes over Feel it all fall through your handsNothing is safe where you can stand if the heart is frozen the ice is spreading from river to ocean we're all connected if the heart is frozen then its spreading from river to ocean we're all connected

V.1 I'm in the air and floating walking in the clouds untethered onto nothing to no one i am bound i'm free but i'm not falling i rise above them all i feel your hand descending i'l land into your arms Ch1. to live my life suspended is cold and isolated so don't release me lonely in the sky keep me at your side together we're alive save me from from the unbearable lightness V2. You're trying hard to love me each day you wake and call i tried to fly above it but i need you more than i thought i want your weight upon me to keep me on the earth your tender whisper haunts me .. a lonely language heard Ch 2. and though we never touched like this i know that when we we'll kiss you won't release me so don't release me and fly into my arms your love will keep me warm keep the storm outside save me from the unbearable lightness

Her Alone 04:17
Im not exactly a perfect lover But I wont force my way into her life,, but i want her i know she wants me, its not that easy, bury my feet i've got some peace to find......i wont let it burn tho i will run the other direction, i want her affection dont make a mess,, the awkward silence is a sign to us i will say goodnight find my another way out,,, we all know what will happen so i'll leave her,,,,, feel her burn like a radiator next to me like three feet from the sun she knows im faking , i will not break my disguise. i'm unshakable. they will see how much i freeze when i go away i will say goodnight make my way in dim light. i just know she is better off without me .. so leave her alone

(I'm) checking out tomorrow My mind, it moves like mud I look for another picture of you in my' 'book' to cheer me up my life has turned to ash it blows all over my bags drift and move is all that i do and i wonder if this'll last but i'd fly a million miles to see you smile if i could, but i don't have wings i fall back on the fact what nights i have will be spent to see you in my dreams the memory time time we spent will help pay the debt to the loneliness i feel but i'm so far away, so i ask for a date to see you in the dream dream i don't talk about it this ain't what i planned i'm feeling it move underneath my skin and no one'll understand i know you wnat me happy i know you believe in me but when the sun sits on the edge of the sky i'm too excited to sleep but i'd fly a million miles to see you smile if i could, but i don't have wings i fall back on the fact what nights i have will be spent to see you in my dreams the memory time time we spent will help pay the debt to the loneliness i feel but i'm so far away, so i ask for a date to see you in the dream then we're together again but i'd fly a million miles to see you smile if i could, but i don't have wings i fall back on the fact what nights i have will be spent to see you in my dreams the memory time time we spent will help pay the debt to the loneliness i feel but i'm so far away, so i ask for a date to see you in the dream

i guess its time to to stay up again seems you dont like being treated like a friend wonder why other men dont have problems like this is it why they deceive you in every single kiss Shall i fool you use you and spit on your floor shall i laugh now, and say how i dont love you anymore shall i make plans without you and wonder why your mad can i lie like they do and wander with my hands what a problem for a good man I try have fun with you but i'm a cheap drunk and you dont work like i do i'd kill to be two men at once one that takes care of you one thats your type of fun Shall i fool you use you and spit on your floor shall i laugh now, and say how i dont love you anymore shall i make plans without you and wonder why your mad can i lie like they do and wander with my hands shall i blame you and shame you and be hard to understand can i take you whenever i want to i wonder if i can its a problem for a good man

On a deepest deep blue of the Summer night I wander to see the end of light smoke a cigar down to the bitter end leave my shoes off and then I begin through an overgrown path i start to beat the grass is cool on my naked feet - is it enough to just love the world? - don't need to answer with a word. -I'm starting to think i don't need a girl -i'm starting to think i don't need a girl have to close my eyes to the fragrant air it dries my tears that i start to wear i feel ashamed when i go to cry but mystery music falls from the sky - is it a gift cause something starts to stir ? - don't need to answer with a word - i'm starting to think i dont need a girl - i'm starting to think i dont need a girl is it enough to live alone in the world i'd like to answer , but i'm out of words
