Best Case Scenario

I've got the best of intentions
And more than quite enough charm
Finally I have your attention
But I still don't have your heart

I've got the best of intentions
Thrown away in the blink of an eye
So quickly I choose to forget them
In hope of buying us some time

But the best case scenario
Shows whichever way we choose to go
We're bound to fail
When two hearts like ours combine
It's like watching to car collide
Pull me from this wreckage!

Save me (Won't You pull me from this grave)
Six feet deep I've dug myself
Created my own taste of hell

I need you to bring this disaster
Here to my feet and I'll avoid you hereafter

The Countdown

I've heard every story
I've heard every line
They tell me I'm boring
And they hate my rhymes

I've emptied bank accounts
Sold my grandma's pearls
Ask anyone around
I'm a carpet made for girls

Do not look at me
And just roll your eyes
When I know for certain
I'm not the only guy

That there's a countdown waiting
In each relationship
Once initiated
It will never quit

The countdown has started
The inevitable is near
Till I'll be regarded
As another waste of your year

Call the paramedics
And the bomb squad
We could use a little
Help here God

Cuz the fuse short
Not sure what to do
Cuz I can't decide
Should I cut red or blue

Kim Never Said

Maybe I'm just naive
Or maybe I'm the only one
When I don't buy these games
You've created for yourself

Or maybe I'm just a skeptic
That's jealous of your freedom
When you're a room without walls
Well my friend that's no room at all

This is the culmination
Of you and me
As we tie up these loose ends
As they should be

Oh, I admit that I did wrong
By more than just your eyes
But I do not agree how you say
That I'm the only one that need apologize

Someday, Someday
You'll see life for what it really is
beyond your own charade

I'm seeing so clearly now
That I just cannot believe
I ever thought you better than me
I ever though you better

I ever thought those lips could do
anything but deceive

I'll wash myself of you

These chords may not sound justice
These words may never be enough
but I know that in due time
This heart will find true love

Just Because

I'll wake you up before I leave
As you lie there beautiful under the sheets
I'll lean in close and whisper "I love you"
There is no need to move
I'll kiss those lips that taste like dreams
At least they do to me

You're here in my head
like the song with the perfect melody
That held by the threads
that captivate each part of me

Just wake me up before you leave
Cuz thanks to you I've learned to see
Goodbyes, they aren't so bad
They seem to be all we've ever had
We both look on the bright side
You know you been together when there's a goodbye

Chinese for Breakfast

I stayed up for hours composing this tune
Hoping it might make its way back to you
But winds are prevailing straight from the south
To block all these words that are leaving my mouth

When words are nothing but sound
Like a speech when no one's around
Or a search for something that's found

Like chinese for breakfast, that's the flavor you left in my mouth
It never felt right, but it's all that I knew until now
Now I know better, I've grown all the wiser you see
What I swore was entrée was just appetizer for free

When it just don't hit the spot
It looks good, but really it's not
Shallow and empty are right on the mark
It's sure to be death straight to your heart

Move, move on, on with your life
The next you is waiting
I'm anticipating
When she will arrive

I have not had chinese since you see
Turns out it's not the best for me
I'll stick to eggs and throw in some bacon
I'm loving this girl she knows just how to make 'em

Straight Through Me

Hollow words and empty lines
Are all I know by now
They tell a story of this life
And how it feels without

The words you spoke to me
When I was all alone
It seems like just a dream
But never so close to home

Here and Now
I've found You
Oh to find such beauty
Here and Now
I know You
As Your light burned straight through me

That dream of long ago
It haunts like a ghost
I hear its whispers in the night
Calling me back to the light
