It Is What It Is Or Is It
Failure requires no preparation
Is this my downfall is this where i went wrong
Was i preparing way to long
Can birds fly upside down
But are we all scared of clowns
What came first night or day
The chicken or the egg they say
You can be in a crowd but still be lonely
If you walked backwards
Would you end up at the start
How come lightning never strikes twice in same place
Dose it know its been there before
Can you miss someone you have never none
Why do we fall down but never up
Is the best thing for a hangover
Drinking heavy the night before
Whats on the dark side of the moon
Can you circle the globe in eighty days
In just a balloon
Do fish sleep while they are still moving

Goodbye
Goodbye my friend
I have to say goodbye my friend
Cause you never respond to anything i send
Oh some times you might
You say no goodbye i need you in my life
Well i dont believe this to be
When was the last time you wrote
Or even called me
Im sick of checking an empty inbox
I even know before i see
There will be nothing from you for me
There is one thing thats true
You have moved on but i cant seem to
How can you just be with someone new
I must not of ment that much to you
So goodbye my lover goodbye my friend
Well i guess this is the end
Do worry about me i will be ok
What am i saying you dont care anyway
You gave up caring when you boarded the plane

Myself
As i lay here listless or lifeless
Well lifeless cause i'm not sure what listless means
Feelings of emptiness and sorrow
Excuse me are you listening do you have some life i can borrow
Trying to find wheres my place
Enough is enough can i remove this mask from my face
I want to be some one different now
I have tried this one far to long
Can i play another song
One that's words i can sing along
Now that life you said you would lend me
You said today cause you have plenty
Stand back and brace
For i am about to reveal wait there is no haste
So where is this life you said i could borrow
Don't make me wait it will be raining tomorrow
For i am lifeless you see
I want what you promised not your sympathy
Questions are running through your head
A voice cries i thought you were dead

Looking For Love
Do i dare look for love
Are you sure its out there
where do i look where do go
Love can be a number of things
I believe love can be found in many forms
What kind of love are you searching for
The love that makes your heart skip a beat
Or the love of everything that is beautiful
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Love comes unexpectedly and leaves just as quickly
Lost love is very painful
No love is the same
Passionate love is the one we long for
The love for ones own child is forever
Love is giving love is taking
Can i find love waking down the street
I found love once but lost it where did i put it
Young love sweethearts embracing
Forbidden love do we dare some do
Is the word love used to loosely

For What Its Worth I Do Love You
What happen to us why did come to this
Your so far away but its not me you miss
For i miss you so much each and every day
I want so to call but what words do i say
You have heard it before is what you say to me
So there is nothing i can do except leave quietly
So i will be gone out of your life
The biggest regret i have is i never made you my wife
I never showed you the love i feel for you
And now its over there is nothing i can do
I have loved now for as long as i can remember
Your love is for someone else now
But for what its worth i will love you for ever
My heart broke when you said no to coming home
Not for once did i think you would leave me alone
Its been so long now that i have seen your face
When i think of you tears well up in my eyes and run down my face
Why cant forever really be forever
I never wanted to be away from you never ever
All of these words mean nothing nothing at all

Is Rome Not Your Home
Please stop the damage is done
Or do you enjoy this
Is this your idea of fun
I am hanging on to reality by a tread
I cant forget
Your words play over and over in my head
You say you want to come home
What home is no longer rome
Its been eight months and one day
But your still trying to hurt me
With everything you do and dont say
I fought with you for so long
NO NO NO you would say
There is where i dont belong
Its taken all the strength have
No to call you cause you just got mad
Your words leave me alone
But but but is all i could say
But all you would do is hang up the phone
You broke my heart in two

Creases
Falling to pieces
Fold up in creases
Baron trees bending with breeze
No wonder they have no leaves
My mind is a waste land with not thoughts
No thoughts than can hold my attention
Staring at the sky
Thinking if only i
Now i have a thought
No its gone again
Okay just relax and think again
Time to clear my mind
Think of a better time
Well they are a distant memory now
So have i succumbed to being alone to long
Have all my thoughts and emotions
Packed up and gone
Have i been lost from reality way to long
Is it to late to start anew
Can i return to the person i once new
