Fools like me; we love blindly

Beware the danger it lurks for those who get swept away
The dreamers get punished most by truth
They say it's all in a little ways
One reveals their love's gone away,
Love's gone away
When my hand was in your hand
My heart was pure
Now I see a different man
Rewriting memories
The dogs run down the beach
And all I'm left with
Is sand in my shoes ,
Sand in my shoes
Fools like me
We love blindly
And the cracks don't count
It's gotta break in front of me
Now I recall that time at the cafe,
The thunderstorm outside
Words you could never say,
They hold the loudest tones
You say you'll write
But it's ink on a page,
Just ink on a page
Tic toc the time
Distant look grows in your eye
But fools never ask
Afraid of what lurks in your mind
I always knew, somehow, always knew I always knew the truth...
At least I can say
I was not afraid
I loved you all the way
I'd pick the fool any day

Everybody burns...

Your words circle in my head
Weigh so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by your expectation
I only want to do some good
Too dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna feel the days I'm in
Do I go to far,
Not far enough?
Why can't I keep my big mouth shut?
And do we lead the life that we should?
Did I say to much again?
I'm just a girl in a panic
If I tell you my truth
Am I getting through?
It just seems I should confess
Who am I to pretend
This is more than I can carry

Golden boy

And the tape I made you,
Hope you think of me when it plays through
I'm kinda sad now that it's done
You think my time is for free
In all the ways you say to me,
Sweet versions of let's wait and see
You're always a golden boy
And I'm the girl that you enjoy
My parents say isn't he a gifted son
Time is always passing
By but still I have to wonder why
You can't come to tell me I'm the one
Summer goes and we have grown
We have our friends,
Live on our own
Still I'm not the girl you want me to be
Say gravity can bend the time,
Funny, I always liked your mind
But this whole thing is crushing me
But you're always a golden boy
And this girl's heart that you destroy
You smile at me and then you have your fun
Time is always passing,
Still, I give you another try
And hope that you will see that I'm the one
You say you're scared to get too close
Come let's see how it goes I see you now at the show,
The 7th in,
The 7th row
Now you look at me
And see what I've known for so long
Sad that you could be so lovely and so wrong
Came to say that I moved,
I see your face you don't approve
Guess you could say that I'm already gone
But you'll always be my golden boy
And I'm the summer girl that you enjoy
Some melodies are best left undone
I feel the time pass away
But in my songs you will always stay
I don't need you to tell me I'm the one
You'll never know that I was the one
