My chest is heavy
Breathing slowing
Dull, unyielding ache is growing
And I know you'll soon be going
Thought of you
Leaving me won't let me be
Outr intimacy's out the window
And we both know, we both know
Tomorrow's creeping up
And we're both lost in the past
The sun is going to rise so soon
Whether we're here to see it or not
I'm not acting
Like I should when I'm with you
I'm getting mad when I know not to
And we don't love, though we ought to
And the saddest part of all this
That we're almost done with caring
We're sick of this load we're bearing
And we hardly remember the
Moonlit memories
Back when I understood love
Now the skies are all gray and I can't see
And I hope I can find my way out
Maybe we'll be better off
And there's better things to be found
Maybe we're turning our backs on the best thing we'll
ever have
Then when we'll realize it's too late,

Now the truth is out and there's nothing that I can do
Except become content with stealing glances here at you
I'll learn to subside on photographs and memories
And pretend that all your laughter and your smiles are
all for me
And all my plans
Thrown out so fast
Who would have thought
We wouldn't last
And so I'll wait
Too stunned to leave
Hoping that you
Come back to me
Now you've got a brand new smile but I'm still frowning
here
It's getting pathetic, it's been almost a whole year
And though I might have passed the time with a fling or
Still the only one I think about at night is you
And all my plans
Thrown out so fast
Who would have thought
We wouldn't last
And so I'll wait
Too stunned to leave
Hoping that you
Come back to me
Come back to me
Come back to me

You never wanted to be just another failure.
You never wanted to be just another mess.
Don't let them convince you that you're just another
failure,
Cause I know it's in you, don't settle for any less
Believe me when I tell you
There's so much that you can do
You've had that all along, all along.
And never doubt what you feel
Cause that's the only thing real
And you can do no wrong, no wrong
And never be daunted if you face another failure.
And never be daunted if you face another mess.
That's just what they wanted, to make you a bit more
unsure.
They can't stand if you shine a bit more than all the
rest.
Believe me when I tell you
There's so much that you can do
You've had that all along, all along.
And never doubt what you feel
Cause that's the only thing real

"Do I deserve this?"
I ask myself, nervously
Looking deep into your eyes.
You smile back sadly,
We're ending so badly,
Though it's darkly funny, I guess.
Hopelessly I beg away,
Though you don't care what I say.
So I say we won't be "just friends"
And I walk away, I walk away.
And sometimes I stop and stare,
Though I know it's much better
If I just don't care.
Sometimes you stare back so long,
Why don't you just move,
Not keep me holding on?
God how I miss you
Now that I can't kiss you
And ask if you've had a good day.
My dreams are so lonely,
If we could've only
Managed to not throw it away.
But maybe it's better this way,
A thought you quietly conveyed.
As all my worst fears came true,
And night suddenly shrouded the day.
And sometimes I stop and stare,
Though I know it's much better
If I just don't care.
Sometimes you stare back so long,
Why don't you just move,
Not keep me holding on?
Your kindness is awfully cruel,
When it just keeps me in love with you like a fool.
And seeing you every day
Just serves to keep me here, pining away.
Your emotions seem to be
At odds with all of the things you told me. And when
you smile my way
I almost expect you to say...
...that sometimes I stop and stare,
Though I know it's much better
If I just don't care.
Sometimes you stare back so long,
Why don't you just move,

Your attitude's brand new, it seems that you're back
into me again,
though I'm having trouble even standing here being your
friend.
Am I just supposed to wipe clean all the messes of our
past,
and forget the year I gave you that you didn't let
last?
(chorus:)
You've done it, once again.
Foolishly, I've fallen.
Will there ever be peace for a romantic like me?
I'll wait by the phone and see.
The passion is still there but so are all the stupid
little things,
we let get between us, along with all the heartache
that they bring.
My pulse quickens as I touch you for the first time in
so long,
and my heart's too married to my head to know if this
is wrong.
(chorus)
(bridge:)
Think out for hours each word that we say.
If I come back will you even stay?
Should I run with your amorous play,
or should I run away?
(final chorus:)
You've done it once again.
Foolishly, I've fallen,
Will there ever be hope for a girl like you with me?

So I'm making you this tape
Full of songs I thought that maybe you would like
And I know that it's not much
But it's all that I can think to do to make things
right
I know that every word I say
Echos back to yesterday
And all the things that I was dumb enough to say
I know that every glance at me
Reflects what I said you should be
But what you are is more than I could ever see
I can't help but reminisce
As I'm putting in this tape and press record
About the songs I sung to you
And how you made me want to write a hundred more
And that's all forgotten
I think of all the poems you write
Swimming with you late at night
And how we just missed getting it right
There's too much that we've been through
For me to never talk to you
Though I'm unsure of many things, this much is true
I'm not asking for the love that you were smart enough
to give
To someone else
I'm just hoping maybe one day I can make up for the
pain
That you have felt
And maybe it's naive to think that consequense could
ever close its eyes to me

As we drive through the starlight-drenched hills in her
car,
I wish I could feel this without coming so far.
And the glow of the city won't ever compare
To the feel of this night as the wind blows through our
hair
I know,
I've lost more than I've ever had.
I know,
Your kindness is more than a fad
I know,
I can call you when I feel sad
There's a chill in the air as the autumn draws near,
As we walk and you do the things that I hold dear.
The way you laugh, the way you think of everyone before
yourself,
And in your heart there's more kindness than one song
could tell.
I know,
I've lost more than I've ever had.
I know,
Your kindness is more than a fad
I know,
I can call you when I feel sad
I know,
I've lost more than I've ever had.
I know,
Your kindness is more than a fad
I know,

Evaporate, into a million pieces that I'll learn to hate,
That gather till we fall.
We must create, a future if we're going to be anything,
At all.
Play it straight, while jagged broken pieces of the
mirror wait,
To be glued back again.
And I'll create, convenient little lies that just
perpetuate,
Everything I can't stand.
(chorus:)
I won't call, ignore, just stall.
I'll be waiting for what, be waiting for what I don't
know.
Wait so long you go.
Try and state, the empty promise of good things to those
who wait,
But I know you won't buy.
So I'll blame fate the scapegoat of the aimless who
anticipate,

Wake up from sleep and hardly notice the change. Blurred
scenery and emotions that all feel the same. Stare out of
holes in my head that pass for eyes. Crave a kiss
goodnight and the warmth of your thighs.
Struggle to find fulfillment in this sort of state. I'd
try and love you if I could just concentrate. Hold on so
hard to things that once defined me, that they break
apart and I'm left empty.
Dirty words, held inside a head, will sour into sorrow.
Hate the world, but everything unsaid, will still be
there tomorrow.
Prevent a connection 'cause all I can think of, is how
best to charm, flatter and elicit love. Afraid to let
your camera catch my bad side. Wish I had as little as
you think I do to hide.
Dirty thoughts, held inside a head, will sour into
sorrow. Lessons taught, and all but left for dead, will
ruin more tomorrow.
Dirty deeds, held from those who trust, will haunt all
your tomorrows. All alone, with the best of friends, is a

Rumpled and tired
You still fit the part
Of the one I wanted from the start
We're talking til dawn
About our tangled past
As years of words come out so fast
We both know it's a week
Til I'm going away
But we can't help act like I might stay
It's late when we kiss
Later still when we part
And with my words I'll pierce your heart
Blackmail me
Black and blue
I'll clean up
All for you
So sorry that I
Didn't think it all through
A whim for me, heartache for you
You kiss me goodbye
Say "I wish you could stay"
With a fading smile you turn away
Blackmail me
Black and blue
I'll clean up
All for you
All for you

I'm leavingFor Phoenix, Arizona
As the yellow sun
Collapses to the ground
And blink
As stars ?? into ashes
And all the words you're searching for
Don't have a sound
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts
To move on
We've lost a thousand loves
In a thousand lives before
This is just one more
A memory
Fades in and out of focus
The color's not as crisp
As they once looked
And all the time and space
That's gotten in between us
Has turned us into characters
From forgotten books
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts
To move on
We've lost a thousand loves
In a thousand lives before
This is just one more
Cry whatever tears you have to cry
My lonely friend
Shimmering as brilliant lives spin by
And some things end
And some things end
It doesn't have to mean goodbye
When I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts

I loved her, she loved me
What did it matter?
Too headstrong to last long
Destined to shatter
And all of my words just fall on deaf ears
So there's not much left but for me to dry these tears
I'll be on the road home.
I knew we're through when she said "You
Just look like a memory"
How could you say? You're always halfway
Across the room from me
So I'll pack my bags with clothes that smell of you
And I won't question all the love we knew
