Haven't Lost All Hope | Melissa Souza |
So he broke my heart,
no big deal,
same routine,
different year.
It's all the same to me now,
and i've lost all sense of pain because my nerves have been worn down.
Life goes on,
and it'll go on like this,
it's just too bad he couldn’t hold on a little longer.
So i let him inside
and he bent down the cage around my heart.
It's ok, I’ve felt this way before,
Don’t flatter yourself into thinking your the first.
I’m willing to wake up,
though my life keeps crashing down,
these disguises cant fool me anymore now that i forgot what trust meant.
It's nothing now,
he's nothing without me,
and I’m everything without him,
now if only i could make myself believe that.
Don't think he ever saw me at all.
So ill listen to these love songs,
and ill cry a tear for him,
and all the other dusted fingerprints on my heart.
I'll write these sappy poems,
and think of him tonight,
but its okay because i've been here before,
and this time i can escape the pain.
Too bad your stuck inside my bleeding heart.
Nice to know you, maybe ill see you down my road of fate, though that road
seems to have disappeared because of you.

Alone | Melissa Souza |
i Spent the night awake last night,
feeling like i could die,
he tore my heart from my eyes,
and left me with no one but myself.
Cleansed my mind of memories
you left lingering on my lips,
ripped the stitches from my eyes,
in hope you'd see through this.
Do anything for you,
all you have to do is let me in again,
so i sit here everyday and wonder what went wrong.
Nothing but a sense of emptiness again.
What's happend to this world,
whats happened to my life,
whats happened to the times we used to share,
downward spiral through your spine,
And i watch you sitting there,
with the same look in your eyes,
and i wish more then anything i could hold you again.

Boring Days and Nights | Ant |
Boring days and nights
Your smile makes it all seem right
Out of my way about an hour
But she never notices all i do
Maybe i will get over the fact
dreams do not always come true
If they did i would be with you
Spend hours staring into space
With you on my mind and i dont wanna stop
I cant believe the way i have felt for so long
Maybe its cuz im dumb and i shouldnt think like that
Maybe one day i will be that perfect someone for somebody
Hopefuly in time you will realize your wrong and that
Nobody could care for you the way i did and always will
Will that day come soon
Or will i wait forever
Either way i dont mind
Because you are perfect...

Whispers of December | Dan Irrational |
These are some lyrics I wrote to a song that my stupid joke band The Alcove Kids plays. These are full-on Saves the Day ripoffs, and they make absolutely no sense, but oh well.
I will step out on my porch
And feel the frostbite down my throat
And I will think about the things you said
under those grey skies
Whispers of December
left here on my lips and broken glass
this time I won't let you go...
And as the sun breaks through the clouds
I'll beat my wrists across my chest
and watch the bloody street peak
bloody street peak under snowfall
Whispers of December
left here on my lips and broken glass
this time I won't let you go...
And I will fade into the backdrop of the scene
And I will break, I will break
Beyond the drifts into obscurity
This time I'm falling
faster than a star falls from the sky
This time, I'm falling
I'm falling
I'll fall tonight...

I Am Him | Michael Gore |
When he thinks about her
He doesnt know what to do
In every thought she is there
But is his image of her true?
For her only, he lives his life
Like a double edged sword
His love cuts as a knife
Its not her fault, she controls his mind
All those irrational thoughts
Just completely out of line
A victim of perfection
His naive and desperate plight
The fool wont even realize
Its not her love, but his own
And he cant give up the fight
He cant accept but wont deny
That win the battle or lose the war
It only matters, as long as he tries

Lightness | Michael Gore |
Why can't you understand
The only thing I want
In this crazy irrational world
Is just to be your man
Don't you know it's true
That even from the beginning
My love, it's all for you
So come with me when I call
Just know your safe
I'm not burdened by your weight
But lifted by your lightness
I'd never let you fall
Cuz our trip will take us higher together
Then anyone has ever flown
No matter how one tries, you never make it
When you go it on your own
Just please please please
Don't let me crash and burn
This is one lesson of life
I'm just not strong enough
To learn

Untitled | Jason Colberg |
I dont know why I do this to myself
I know I'm not in love
but I've convinced myself that I am
My head is so fucked up
I've never even talked her
and I probably never will
Why am I such loser...
She's always on my mind
no matter how hard i try to get her off
i wish that i could just forget her pretty face
and remember that i'll never get her
maybe things would be different if i had the guts
to even just say hi
but i know that that's never gonna happen
why do i even try?
I just stare at her from across the room
and wonder how things would be if i wasnt me
i wish that i was different,
i wish i didnt care so much
i just wish that i could talk to her...

Dream It All Away | Melissa Souza |
sleep each day away,
everythings still the same,
searching for any reason why,
i didnt die today,
toxin fills my body,
so empty from the pain,
torn within the excuses
for being wounded again.
tried to hold on once more,slipped off the edge i built,
blamed for being stepped on,
pain for what i couldve done.
lay me on this picked fence,
and paint me the same as you,
spill to me the same lies
that ive been living through.
so i keep sleeping each day away,
these thoughts are still the same,
doubt ill find a reason why,
i live for yesterday.

Tonight I'm Lonely Again... | Paul Caluscos |
Tonight I’m lonely again
feeling empty inside
wanting to feel your hand
or touch your face
then take my awkward emotions and throw them all over you
and I’ll take my lonely self
wash everything off
see it go down the drain
and wait for the day it’ll just be me and you
and its summer now
I don’t know what the future holds
but today we’ve got it made
and everything’s gonna be ok
at least says we…….or at least I thought so
now the nights don’t die until 2 or 3
but I just fuckin’ wish you were here with me
we’d run through the rain and kiss till dawn……

Sleep | Paul Caluscos |
Lying in bed at night
The glow of the stars is so bright
The picture of you running through my mind
Dim light keeps it alive
My head laying on the pillow
Waiting for sleep to come
Hopeful that the dreams will be good
I guess I'll never find that someone, that perfect girl
There used to be a time when I was happy
Now the skies are blue
But like Kris says Blue Skies Broken Hearts
I always knew he was right
My head laying on the pillow
Waiting for sleep to come
Hopeful that the dreams will be good
I guess I'll never find that someone, that perfect girl
So I'll keep strumming the soft chords
Thinking about things I want
But I will never have
This life's getting old and things are getting sad

She Never Told Half-Lies, Only Half-Truths | Jake Lovetarded |
And I can still remember that autumn night
Next to each other overlooking the water where the bridges separate
Seemed that we would come together but
Just like the bridge
We parted ways, never to join hearts again.
And she said to me,
"I'm just like all the others," but I thought different.
Turns out she's better off worse.
Losing out on a connection she strayed away
No work all play she strayed away.
Those poor saps, never realized she told half-truths
Never to know until the end when she said
"Let's just be friends,"
And then their heart takes a leap off that broken bridge.
And she said to me,
"He and I were getting too serious,"
Probably because you're too carefree
Too stuck with your own hypocrisy
You're just like all the others.
I hate your insides.
But I'm forced to love you.
Sucked in again this guy won't leave with shattered heart
Because he doesn't care at all
I think you don't care you just want another notch on your wall
Fourth sour mood created
Fourth beating red flesh ripped apart
And flushed down your piss-stained toilet.
Don't you ever try to get to me again
Because I'll follow through
And I'll fall off that bridge
Just like I fell for you
And all of your half-truths.

Anthem of A Hopeless Romantic | Jake Lovetarded |
Teardrops falling on the clouded reminiscence of your image
As they trickle down my cheeks
They find their way to a place
Where my loneliness never sleeps.
Woke up to stare at my reflection on a stained-glass window.
I wish that I were someone different
Who could hold you in my arms
And make myself be ignorant
To this heartbreak.
But my heart still aches.
It's stranger yet to believe that you don't realize
I think about you all the time.
And all I can muster up are
Pathetic words with a simple rhyme.
If I told you how I felt about the way you are to me
You'd only laugh and say
We're never going to be anything but friends.
So much for shared feelings today.
I still have her picture
And God I still miss her.
Everyone in life travels a path taken by no one
But themselves.
Mine leads to twenty-thousand broken hearts
That won't be repaired by anyone else.
Sweet girls like you deserve a sweet guy like me.
And as far as I'm concerned
That will never come to pass.
Another lesson tried is another lesson learned.
Looking forward to fail.
Putting me through and emotional Hell.
In the game of love there is no runner-up.
The game tends to only bring me down.
As opportunity passes right on through
She seems to find a way around.

Traffic Lights | Jake Lovetarded |
See the world go by at fifty-five miles an hour
Through the windshield in a foreign automobile
It makes you wonder what she's doing
If she's thinking about last night
And if she cares at all
If you run through the upcoming red light.
Or is she sleeping with her eyes shut tight
Dreaming about those days she never wondered what became of it.
Step on the accelerator it's coming closer
And as others slow down you speed higher with no signs of stopping.
And in the sky the moon is hidden
Beneath the clouds of your heart.
She often told me of those times
When his memory didn't mean a thing
Neither does mine as I throw
The emergency brake but it's too late.
There I go through the glass before I hit the ground
I see you in the sky and you winked at me
Then you hold out your ten-foot hand and catch my body
Just to crush my face between your fingers
And throw the rest straight to the pavement.
We all bleed red but now I bleed only tears.
Traffic light just switched to green
And you just stepped on my remains.
My satisfaction seems to run out of gas
Because the ignition in yours is stalling out
And I can't seem to be happy with myself
Until I ignore the traffic light
Those seconds when I'm coasting in the air will be my pleasure
But like everything
It ends in pain.
And the sun just rose to say,
"Please go away."
Glass litters the asphalt along with a chalk line
Broken bones and pureed organs except for my heart.
You took it in the palm of your hand
And swallowed it whole.
