My Obsession

My obsession has found me
am hidden in the light of his reflections
for the years past he went away
and for today,the day he returned
i know this isn't love 
but i will hold on to it
i know this isn't love 
you are just an obsession.

Love Got Me Thinking

Love got me thinking
a silent wish to be loved
love is standing close
close enough to me
love got me thinking
a network that's out of reach
love oh love!
My heart is blank to love
a closed case decided by me
but who am I to rule out love?
love got me thinking.

Knowing Who I Am

I need to find 
myself
because i feel so 
lost and betrayed
I need to know 
who i am
because i know i 
am not me
I need to be set 
free
because i feel so 
locked up in a cage
I need to find a 
family
because i feel like 
am all alone
I need to know 
who i am
because i know i 
am not me
I need to know 
who my father is
is...that too much 
to ask?
