A Mother To Me

I can't imagine being here
Without you next to me
You've made me who I am today
I don't know what I'd be

It's hard to think of where I'd start
To say how much you mean
You've showed me life you've made me grow
A shoulder where I lean

I know I'm not an easy one
But we still made it through
Cause when it comes to raising me
There's nothing you won't do

Everything you've done in life
I just want you to know
I've never been so proud of you
It doesn't always show

You dedicate your world to me
You couldn't give me more
You wipe away the tears I cry
You pick me off the floor

If I grow up to be like you
I know I will go far
You've always made me be my best
But that's just who you are

And everything you've always done
I know you will provide
A hand to hold, a mother to me
A best friend by my side

Unsaid

If people really knew the girl
Not the one they see
Would they all still feel the same
Hope that’s what they’d be

Would people all still envy her
They try to find a flaw
She wishes they all knew the truth
To her there’s so much more

If you’re watching from the side
She seems to have it all
Her whole world’s there in front of her
There’s no way she could fall

But every night she goes to bed
She prays to stop the pain
For whilst she’s aching in the storm
They’re dancing in the rain

When she wakes she starts to cry
She cannot face the day
Her eyes are red they’re still so sore
The hurt won’t go away

They say that she could light a room
Her beauty captures you
She hides it well puts on a face
She knows they can’t see through

She’s caught up in the battlefield
But how long can she fight
The end was once so close to her
Now it’s not in sight

Long ago when things got rough
She took the deadly road
It seemed to be the easy choice
No sorrow ever showed

Even though she’s gone so far
She hopes it’s not too late
To turn and go the other way
Time won’t stop and wait

She hates to spend her days this way
Why won’t they realise
Her lifeless soul just standing there
The sadness in her eyes

She knows that she should reach for help
Not keep it in her head
But all the words she’s never spoke
Will still remain unsaid.

Part of Me

How could I be so blinded
I thought that that was you
To think I was so gullible
I should have really knew

Now I wish I’d played it safe 
Not wore it on my sleeve
Cause I’m the one who’s left alone 
Every time you leave

I always saw the good in you
I never saw the signs
And every word you said to me
I fell for all your lines

And even though you’re not the first
I’m sure you’re not the last
I clearly didn’t mean that much
You disappear so fast

I don’t know what it is with you
You saved me from the fall
I never had to keep my guard
You got over the wall

I only think back to the times 
When you would make me smile
Forget the nights I’d cry for you
I guess I’m in denial

But now I’m feeling such a fool
Was always on your side
I gave you everything I had
To you I would confide

I never thought it’d be this hard
To get you out my head
You promised me you’d never leave
But now you’ve walked instead

I knew this from the start of it 
That this would come one day
I try to brush off all the times 
You’d push me far away

I can’t help think would it have changed
If we’d ever met
I guess that’s just another hope
One day I will forget

Cause now I’ll give you what you want
Our road has been quite tough
I don’t know how to keep you here
When I’m not enough

And even though I’ll leave you be
I just wish you could know
You’ll always be a part of me
Even once you go.

Coming Home

She'd never looked at life this way
There's beauty all around
How could I have got so low
Just needed to be found

When the first tear fell from her
She thought that it would mend
Didn't think she'd still be here
It never seemed to end

And the days they turned to weeks
The weeks turned into years
It took awayher confidence
Replaced with all her fears

She knew the circle wouldn't stop
Each morning brings new pain
Wonders how the bright sky feels
She's only used to rain

Looking at herself one day
She stared into her eyes
And saw that there was nothing left
She's done with living lies

Admitting that she needed help
It took a lot to do
But knows she's coming home one day
The grey skies turn to blue

With every ounce of strength in her
She had to do what's right
And knew that it was time to start
The long uneasy fight

All That You Can See

When you're lying next to her
And holding her so tight
Does it even cross your mind
This just isn't right

Do you even think of me
All the times we shared
The fact I stayed so long with you
The only one who cared

But suddenly she's in your life
I'm nowhere to be seen
All the things that we had planned
What a waste it's been

If I could see you one last time
I'd like to ask you this
What is it that you like so much
What is it that I miss

What is it that I should have done
What would have made you stay
But now it's pointless finding out 
You've nothing left to say

I wish we could have worked this out
I wish you still loved me
But now that she has come along
She's all that you can see

I'm sure she always looks her best 
Whenever you are there
Was it that I just was me
I wasn't even aware

Sometimes when I looked a mess
I really didn't know
Sorry for feeling just so safe
You wouldn't let me go

I always wonder to myself
Just what was I to you
Was I the one just on the side
If only I had knew

I never should have trusted you
Believed a word you said
Why do I deserve this pain
This should be you instead

Maybe she's just more like you
She's probably more your sort
I hope she makes you happy 
She's everything you thought

For if you did it all for fun
And threw it all away
You'll certainly feel the scale of it
When karma comes one day
