+5I used to have some silver nights
And dreams of chants and mights
A candle lighting in mid night
That full the room with light
Flowers blooming around me
Prettiness is all I see
A golden chariot that’s so elegant
Someone says isn’t a fairy’s grant
There’s a huge pavilion
That covers the shy blue moon
An orchestra full of glee
And a handsome prince that is missing me

+9I feel pain every day
its hard to make it go away
I lie in bed at night and cry
telling myself that I’ll get by
as tears run down my cheek
I can hardly speak
I feel so weak
nobody knows the pain i feel
but it is very real
so as i lye in bed tonight
I tell myself everything is alright
because i know i can make it through another day
Just trying to fight the pain away

+111Daddy’s not here and baby’s all grown
She has her a path to take
that she has to choose on her own.
Daddy’s absent except for a visit or a once in a while call.
Baby sometimes wishes he would just end it
once and for all.
Daddy got married and baby doesn’t like it,
She sometimes thinks it’s unfair
that she’s been in his life longer than her and their candle is no longer lit.
Daddy’s mad and baby’s sad
She doesn’t know what to do.
He always talks and she always listens. Her side of life is bad.
Daddy’s far away and baby doesn’t care.
Sometimes distance is best.
But sometimes she wishes daddy were there to scare away her nightmares.
Daddy’s tired and baby’s fed up.
He doesn’t know what she goes through.
The last time he was really there was when she drank from a sippy-cup.
Daddy’s sick and so is baby
but both for different reasons.
He’s blue and she wants out, maybe,
But Daddy’s not here and baby is grown.
She has to control her emotions.
So if all he can offer is a call from his phone
and manage a visit or two
She has to accept that he’s not there
and move on…
it’s only fair.

+3My love for you is pure
Nothing added
Nothing taken away
Just love
You are my partner
And my best friend too
I just can’t describe
What I feel
It’s only you
I’ll laugh
I’ll cry
I’ll miss you when you’re gone
Just please tell me
That you feel for me
As I do for you
Two as one in this world
I’ll look after you
I’ll laugh with you
I’ll hold you when you cry
Two entities as one
Always

0I’m sick from your lies
Tired from your thoughts
Just say goodbye
And I shall drown the boat
Knowing you was my nightmare
But this life is just fair
Its time to move on
And its time
To cut all the flowers I had grown
Its time to let go
So would you just leave?
And let me rest in peace.

+12Where are you when I need you?
when I reach for your hand
the times when i need you
when I need a friend
I still want your arms around me
when I walk into your room
… and you’re not there
Why does it have to be this way
why couldn’t you stay
why does he need you now
why’d he have to take you away
So many people dying
little children crying
why couldn’t I go too
was it too good to be true
No-one needs me like I need you
I lie awake praying for hours
why can’t you take me too
It’s hard to stand in your shoes
How can I be her guide
her wind
her light ahead
when I still need mine
Every day your memory fades
but the pain will never change
the pain.. will never change
I cry at your tomb, begging
please mama please
come back to me
please be the hand that lifts me
be the one that helps me stand

+16My heart is broken, I don’t sleep at night.
My heart is broken, no more holding you tight.
My heart is broken, tears run down my face
My heart is broken, feeling like I’m running in place.
My heart is broken, why cant you see
My heart is broken, there is no more of me
My heart is broken, torn in two
My heart is broken, because of you
