as if

i keep waiting for a rainbow
as if it hadnt rained enough
i keep looking out the window
as if the storm will clear up


i never should of told you that i fell in love
cause you put the brakes on and it tore me up
no i never shouldve told you, shouldve given up
cause now im trippin on a vision
and its clouding up


i keep waiting for the unknown
as if i already know enough
i keep waiting for your ringtone
as if a call would make it up


i never should of told you that i fell in love
cause you put the brakes on and it tore me up
no i never shouldve told you, shouldve given up
cause now im trippin on a vision
and its clouding up

this is happening

the lights went down
with the music loud
in a sensual crowd
somehow, its you ive found


were face to face
your hands are on my waist
we move, its so unchaste
im wondering how youd taste


your hands are underneath
and the way you touch me
i just cannot believe
this is happening


is it the atmosphere
that makes you feel sincere
cause its my greatest fear
tomorrow, you wont be here


but as i try to convey
the music plays
lets just get carried away
tomorrows a whole other day

mommy

being a mother is not an easy task
yet you do it everyday, no matter what is asked
its crazy how much i need you
our love is genuine, and deeply true
a day without you, i cannot go
my time with you is precious, so lets take it slow
the years go by and the days get longer
but our friendship is growing and keeps getting stronger
before you think it it, i am there to speak
before you think it it is done for me
we work so well together, you by my side
i know with you, each mountain i can climb
you let me be fearless and encourage my dreams
and i help you with your worries, we make a great team
mother and daughter, best friends for life
through happiness and laughter, toil and strife
i want to take this time to express gratitude
for the words of encouragement and everything else you do
from your laugh to your cry, i know your voice by heart
youve taught me to accept, belong and be smart
all the things you do and allthe advice you give
is for my own good, a better life to live
i am a better, wiser person all in all
because of your knowledge, and love since i was small
being a mother is hard and trying
but you do it so well, all the while, smiling

thats the way the cookie crumbles

why cant life be like how its on Laguna Beach
gotta have faith in fate, practive what i preach
awaiting the future, believe in what i cant see
if its supposed to happen, then it will be
God wont leave us alone, never lost or stranded
He wont leave us behind, not ever empty handed
Hes got something in store, our destiny
trapped in this life were living, He will set us free
somethings far more better, than we can ever dream
this lifes temporary, thought it may not seem
one day the doors will open for me to step inside
Gods done so much for me, ive at least got to try

loooserrrr

im that girl next door people love to hate
im the one at the dance without a date


its a friday night and im all alone
sitting in my room, staring at the phone


hes the guy i want, the guy i need
hes a jerk to my friends but cool with me


anything hes done, every word hes said
keeps playing back, in my head


doesnt answer my calls, or text me back
but i still like him, after all that


sounds crazy, weird and really strange
but thats my life, wanna trade?

the life of an average pencil

i hear a loud noise
some sort of zipping toy?
then some object reaches for me,
pulls me out and sets me free


it picks me up and walks awhile
then entires a line, single file
it takes my feet and sticks em through
in a machine thats icy cool


something grinds me in a koint
until my feet are in a perfect point
then the object takes me out
i wanna scream, i wanna shout
it turns around and walks some more
while i, myself, am still so sore


it plces me on something smoothe
buts intent was not to soothe
suddenly, it moves around
side to side and up and down


i didnt really want anymore
but it did something uncalled for
it flipped me upside down
then moved me all around


when i heard the noise again
it all stopped, all the pain
then in it threw me
and i sat contently
unware it would happen tomorrow
all the pain and alll the sorrow
so there i lay, next to a stencil
this is the life, of an average pencil

unexpected

as the moonlight shined, our hands intertwined
tell me why, I'm here tonight
a darkened sky, a familiar high
im tryin to find, how this is right


i refuse to believe, that all you see
is an easy me, conveniently
impossible to leave, beneath the trees
so silently, you kiss me


tell me what is, to become of this
a moment at bliss, is now a serious risk
a simple kiss, my narcosis
i am obvious, but your oblivious


we put the bottles down, cue next round
so profound, but I'm tightly wound
i don't see how, I just found
myself here now, on cold ground


a state of mind, a place in time
a moment blind, hold me tight
you were by my side, now your outta sight
im tryin to find how this right
