bases loaded
so is the gun
pulls the trigger
and brings in a run
the score is tied
and so is the rope
kick the chair
swing and hope
& she fights so you won't ignore her
cause that's her biggest fear
& she cries but you'll never see her do it
& she loves but she's scared to use it
the worst is over
you can have the best of me
we got older
but we're still young
we never grew out of this feeling
that we won't give up
everytime they put her down
she makes a fist & tears come down
she packs her bags & plans to run away...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i'm just a notch in your bedpost,
but you're just a line in a song.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

we do the best we can in a small town;
act like kids in love when the sun goes down.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

so much for all the promises you made,
they served you well.
now you're gone
& they're wasted on me.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i just poured my heart out.
there's bits of it on the floor.
& now i take whats left of it
& rinse it under cold water,
and call him up for more.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

must've been a beautiful day dream,
you didn't come home til 3.
must've been a helluva joyride,
you didn't once think of me.
must've been a lot of people
saying that you took more than you gave.
what do you do to take the pain away?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i'm so over-dosed on apathy
& burnt out on sympathy.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

everyone tells me to stay away from you.
But i've forgotten what like was like without you..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

you're only as strong as the shots you take
the tables you dance on
& your parents punishment
when they find out you're a skank.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

here we lie in this beautiful mess of tangled sheets and beads of sweat.
with my heart in your hand & my neck in the other; should i be scared
or should i come closer?
but it's still beating & i'm still breathing. you haven't hurt me yet.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

she's got stars in her eyes & and bruise on her tongue-
bite marks from the things she never says.
she's learned to say things with her eyes
that others waste time trying to put into words.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

buy me a plastic ring...
and tell me you love me

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

soemtimes it's hard to let go of something
when there's nothing new to hold on to.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

the kisses you put on my forehead when you think i'm asleep...
those are the one's that mean the most.
for you did them because you wanted to..
not because you had to.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

it's not the same
when you wake up in the morning with a smile on your face...
when you know you lied yourself to sleep.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

you're just the girl all the boys want to dance with..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

... and i know the pieces fit
cause i watched them fall apart...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i'm looking for love. real love. ridiculous,
inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-eachother
love.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i want to be your favorite hello
& your hardest goodbye

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

the hardest part of letting go..
is learning not to look back

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i can tell by your tears
that you'll remember this forever

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

promises are made to be broken.
i learned that from you.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i'm a lover not a fighter
but ill fight for the one i love

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

hearts will never be practical
until they are made unbreakable

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

here's to the nights we felt alive
here's to the tears you knew you'd cry
here's to goodbye
tomorrow's gonna come too soon

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

why does tonight have to end?
why dont we hit restart
and pause it at all our favorite parts
we'll skip the goodbyes..
if i had it my way
id turn this car around & run away just u and i
& i dont want to speak these words
cause i dont want to make things any worse

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

what if this is the last time we're ever together...
is that a chance you want to take?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

love doesn't require you to be perfect
but it does require you to forgive

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

& then we hugged each other tighter than we ever had before
... knowing that we never would again..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

pretty smiles and makeup
hide so uch these days..

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

she's been everybody's girl...
maybe one day she'll be her own.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

your number is still stained on my hand.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

bad nights take forever
... and good nights never seem to last...
