Obsession

All day long I think of you
Every minute of every day
Everything makes me think of you
I always wonder what you'd say
I find a way to put you in every song I hear
When I close my eyes I see your face
The face I see is never as perfect as the real thing
I think you are so flawless
To me you can do no wrong
Is this obsession?
I just know we belong

The Fight

Up early that morning
getting prepped and ready.
As the time nears,
nerves fill your stomach.
Your number is called
and you step into the ring.
You are there for blood.
You give it your all.
That's all you can do.
When you win the fight
polite congrats are due.
You smile back and say
"thank you".
Inside you scream
"Haha! I win!"
When you leave the ring
you start to calm down.
After all it's just a dog show.

Does He Know What He's Doing?

Does he know what he's doing?
To his very own sister
She can't eat or sleep
She always worries about him
It's almost like he doesn't care

Does he know what he's doing?
Tries to take his own life
Leave the ones that love him
He wants the suffering to stop
They only try to help

Does he know what he's doing?
Ignoring all the help
He says he's alright
But his loved ones still fight
They say this is good for him
But will he ever really change?

Does he really know what he's doing?

Confusion

You are so mean
You confuse the hell out of me
Things are good
Then things are bad
We go up
Then we go down
Everything is fine
Then everything changes
I wish it wasn't up to me
I wish you would just go
But when you go...
I wish you confused the hell out of me
I wish things were good
Then things were bad
I wish we went up
Then we go down
I wish everything was fine
Then everything changes
I wish it was up to me.

The Wedding

there she stands
in her white flowing dress
beautiful flowers in her hair
she couldn't be happier
she's waited so long for this moment
waiting to greet her groom
she can hardly keep standing
the song begins to play
sounding like a million trumpets
she walks down the isle
wishing she could run
she sees her mother and father
and all her closest friends
it all seems so unreal
and then she wakes up
it was all a dream
a bitter sweet dream
she knows the one she dreams of
her heart begins to break
maybe one of these days
this dream will come true

Together

He goes out of his way to see her
hear her voice
look her in the eye
feel her skin
smell her smell

She goes out of her way to see him
hear his voice
look him in the eye
feel his skin
smell his smell

The amount of sparks between them causes earthquakes
Everyone says they are perfect for each other
They love each others company

But something stops them from being together
Something big
This something will keep them apart forever
This something keeps them longing for each other
They know they will never be...together.
