Two Blue Oceans

Your eyes are two blue oceans
Swirling neath the sands
I’m try to keep from drowning
But you’ve tied my hands
And now I’ve fallen victim
To the surging waves
I try keep on breathing
No reason to save
Your eyes are two blue oceans
Curious and deep
I’m lost among your trenches
Ridges are too steep
And i would try to leave here
If i knew the way
I’ve misplaced directions
So i guess I’ll stay
All the lighthouses are burned out
Scream in the darkness they won’t hear my shout
And all the lighthouses are all burned down
They won’t hear me as I drown

Freaking Out For Nothing

I feel my world crumbling
As i fall from where I stand
Then look up to see all is clear
Realize there was no real fear
And I’m sorry if I’m falling headlong
Telling you something I know was so wrong
Just so you’ll believe that I’m still strong
But you’ll see that I’m just hanging on
Analyzing till I'm in fits
Simple answers what do they hide
Always reading too much into it
When there’s nothing between the lines
And i'm sorry if i start to let go
My mind is a twirling tornado
So you better fasten your window
Don’t tell me something I don’t know
I can’t help thinking of the worst
Freaking out for nothing is just my curse
I tried to stop it but i’m too immersed

Touch of your skin seems to warm me
Look in your eyes seems to warn me
Try to get down to the bottom
Of all of these feelings
And you remind me of the sunshine
And i’m happy long as you're mine
So please don’t let my little sunshine down
Holding your hand feels like freedom
Walking around like its Eden
Red hair falls down your shoulder
And I wish I could hold her
And you remind me of the sunshine
And i’m happy long as you're mine
So please don’t let my little sunshine down
The smell of your perfume
It lingers in my room
The smell of your perfume
It lingers long after you’ve gone
And you remind me of the sunshine
And i’m happy long as you're mine
So please don’t let my little sunshine down

Of Whom I Am The Worst

Sits in chains he waits for freedom
Maybe he waits for death
Knowing which comes to him sooner
Will take this weight off his chest
Feels so restless but regrets nothing
Price for saying the truth
And he knows he’s held unjustly
Someone was paid for proof
Late at night he’s in his cell
He gets down on his knees
Says i'm the chief of sinners
And I need forgiveness please
I know I'm not a prophet
And by far i'm no wise man
Won't see my blameless hands
Can't erase the image
Sketched upon his mind
Tries his best to forget
But memory won't resign
Mangled figures lie there
Tangled on the ground
The only one to see it
Doesn't make a sound
When he's there in his cell
He gets down on his knees,
Says God i'm just your servant
Hear my quiet pleas
And i know that i'm a sinner
But I'm not a guilty man
See my blameless hands

One more year and I still don’t know
What I want from it all
One more year and I still don’t know
Why it’s your name I call
And I tried to find a reason
to sway me either way
all my points were broken
you can’t repair decay
All this time and your still right here
Is that impressive or sad
All the crap I’ve put you through
Please don’t tell your dad
That I get upset and angry
When I can’t make you change
Tried to tell you frankly
But I came unhinged
Maybe we mistake patience
For just settling
Maybe we're complacent
And don’t like battling

Underneath
Of a smile
Grits his teeth
In denial
Running through
In his head
All the things
Can’t be said
Then he speaks
Careful words
Hope that they
Go unheard
Is there something happening
That i should know
I feel like I don’t know you
Anymore
Taken back
By his tone
Starts to feel
Some nerves of her own
Then she looks
In his eyes
Wonders how she can
Feed him these lies
Takes a breath
Wrings her hands
Her knees shake as we
Widens her stance
Tell me what you expect for
For me to say
I feel like I don’t know you
Anyway
Tell me you’d believe if I said that I could change
You can’t lie
Anymore
Tears fall
Then it pours
All the lies
Wasted years
All your secrets leave
Bruised ears
Looking back
On it now
Tell me how you’re going
To mend the vow

Makes Me Forget

Where does my brain go
When you’re around
I can’t remember
And nothing resounds
You try to talk to
Me but I stare
My head is shaking
Like there’s nothing in there
You make me forget
Forget who I am
Where does my voice go
When you are here
I just go speechless
But I want to swear
Fumble with my words
Try to get out
Tumbling forwards
I fall and I shout
You make me forget
Forget who I am
Why does my heart beat
Out of my chest
I just start sweating
And get so distressed
And then you ask me
Am i okay
I just nod slightly
Like there’s nothing to say
But there’s something to say

Nest

If it wasn’t meant to be
Then I guess it won't
No matter how I care
I know you don't
In my mind
You've been misrepresented
And your all love
For me was just invented
Forget your dreams
Cause they're all in your head
So leave all those notions
Right there in your bed
Cause life's a little harder
Than what most people say
But when I see you
I can't get over
The way that you make me feel
Heart starts to pounding
Fear comes surrounding
But you don't want me at all
And I know
I should be grateful
For what I’ve been given
What can make someone
Be so driven
To believe in things
They know aren't true
Maybe i need
A different point of view
I know God has a plan
But I'd sure like to see
Cause all these plans
Make no sense to me
and maybe the good Lord
Could give me a little guidance
We all want something
That we cant have
That's why it seems like the best
We are all just birds
Who are learning to fly
Afraid to leave the nest
