Stars of Drink

I'm just a drunk
sitting at the bar
Watching everyone
cause to me they're all stars
In this game of drink
we all have our parts
And I think
we are all drink stars

So I'm out everynite
playing my role
Having a good time
getting out of control
Going for blackout
not to remember a thing
Because that's what it's all about
when your a star of drink

In every bar around town
there's another starring cast
Everyone buying rounds
and asking for autographs
Snapping pics
and making a scene
That's the way it is
when your a star of drink

Our Novel

I wake up everyday
shattered into a million pieces
Still thinking of you
and all the love that we have lost
That's never going to change
our love it never ceases
I never want it to
because your all that I've got

I still hold on
to the hope that you'll be back
And happily ever after
will turn out to be true
Our love is to strong
it was meant to last
There is still another chapter
in the tale of me and you

So it's here that I wait
just letting days go by
Watching in the distance
for you to return home
And until my dying day
you will be the love of my life
And when you finally miss this
you'll come back where you belong

Turning Positives Into Me

Lonliness is my companion
Enemies my only friends
Defeat is my champion
Beginnings are my end

Resolve is my conflict
Nothing is my everything
Accidents are my intent
Nightmares my every dream

Failure is my triumph
Shame is my only pride
Obedieance my defiance
Divorce my only bride

Weakness is my strength
Lies my only truth
Debt is my bank
Age my only youth

Love This Life and Let Life Love You Too

What can be said about love
when it's in your sights
But words aren't enough
to truely describe

Love is life
and what life's all about
So love all the time
and make the world go 'round

Let the world spin
and let love breed
So love can never end
because love is all you need

And as long as you need love
the world will need you
So love everyone
and may everyone love you too

Happy Holidays

The holidays just aren't as happy
because your not here
We don't feel like a complete family
even after all these years
I'm thankful for the time
you and me got to spend
The holidays just don't feel right
and I doubt they ever will again

All the traditions that we had
that made the holidays
I just want them back
so there's cause to celebrate
I don't feel like laughing
this season really hurts
The holidays just aren't as happy
in fact they are the worst

There's so much your going to miss
and so much I want to share
The only wish on my wish list
is just to have you there
The holidays just aren't as happy
but I will have to make it through
So just one last thing
Happy Holidays I love and miss you
