Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you, but it is late at night
You're far away, but you are always on my mind
I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt, though I know it is not true
And it's times like these when I am dying to speak to you
Dying to get through... I'm dying to speak to you...
Dying to get through... I'm dying to speak to you...
Staring at the wall, I sink inside
I think about it all, I get caught up in my life
I can't think straight, because it's tearing up my mind
I feel like I'm on fire, nothing I can do
I'm troubled with doubt, though I know it is not true
And it's times like these when I am dying to speak to you
Dying to get through... I'm dying to speak to you...
Dying to get through... I'm dying to speak to you...
The more that I think how I need you
The more that I think, the more it seems true
And now it means more that I ever meant it to
Ever meant it to
Lying wide awake under strange skies
Wanting to call you, but it is late at night
And you're far away, but you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind...
You are always on my mind...
You are always on my mind...
You are always on my mind...
You are always on my mind...
You are always on my mind...

Somewhere Out There
By: Our Lady Peace
Last time I talked to you
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me
Lost out in space
We laid underneath the stars
Strung out and feeling brave
I watched the red orange glow
I watched you float away
Down here in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights
You've gone to save your tired soul
You've gone to save our lives
I turned on the radio
To find you on satellite
I'm waiting for the sky to fall
I'm waiting for a sign
And all we are
Is all so far
You're falling back to me
The star that I can see yeah
I know your out there, somewhere out there
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity yeah
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
Hope you remember me
When you're home sick and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you'll come back some day
On a bed of nails I wait
I'm praying that you don't burn out or fade away
And all we are
Is all so far
You're falling back to me
The star that I can see yeah
I know your out there, somewhere out there
You're falling out of reach
Defying gravity yeah
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
You're falling back to me
The star that I can see
I know your out there
Your falling out of reach
Defying gravity
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
Your falling back to me
The star that I can see yeah
I know your out there, somewhere out there
Your falling out of reach
Defying gravity yeah
I know you're out there, somewhere out there
You're falling back to me
I know, I know
You're falling out of reach

Stay You
by: Wood
I love the way you speak
And I love the way you swear
I love the way you walk around with your head held in the air
I love the way your words move
And I love the way you drive
I love the way you're scared of people scared to be alive
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
I love the way you dress upon a Saturday night
I love the way you never speak until it feels just right
I love the way you're spending all your money on yourself
I love the way you answer the phone and pretend you're somebody else
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
And now I don't want to talk about the things you overcame
By dragging up the past I'll put you through it all again
I've got the greatest admiration for the way that you got through it
Couldn't ask nobody else to do it better than you do it
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
Stay... stay you...
I love the way you speak
And I love the way you swear
I love the way you walk around with your head held in the air
I love the way your words move
And I love the way you drive
I love the way you're scared of people scared to be alive
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
Stay... stay you that's the toughest thing to do
I love the way you dress upon a Saturday night
I love the way you never speak until it feels just right
I love the way you're spending all your money on yourself

Stitches & Burns
By: Fra Lippo Lippi
People say that I'm a fool
Well I don't know
At least I found out
What it takes to be strong
I was dreaming all day long
A drifting cloud
With eyes wide open
I would choose not to see
Now I don't want
To see you anymore
Don't want to be the one
To play your game
Not even if you smile
Your sweetest smile
Not even if you beg me
Darling please
Say good morning to the world
I hope you like it
Take good care of all those
Things that we have
I've been looking for a way
For to long now
Seems like everything
Must come to an end
Now I don't want
To see you anymore
Don't want to be the one
To play your game
Not even if you smile
Your sweetest smile
Not even if you beg me
Darling please
Now I don't want
To see you anymore
Don't want to be the one
To play your game
Not even if you smile
Your sweetest smile
Not even if you beg me
Darling please
Time after time
Nothing that I can do
Knowing your ways
And loving your ways
But not getting through at all
Day after day
Leaving the past behind
Coming to terms
With stitches and burns and
Learning to fly again
Now I don't want
To see you anymore
Don't want to be the one
To play your game
Not even if you smile
Your sweetest smile
Not even if you beg me
Darling please
Now I don't want
To see you anymore
Don't want to be the one
To play your game
Not even if you smile
Your sweetest smile
Not even if you beg me
Darling please

The Day That I Die
by: Good Charlotte
One day I woke up
I woke up knowing
today is the day i will die
Cashdogg was barkin
went to the park and enjoyed it one last time
I called my mother
told her I loved her
and I begged her not to cry
I wrote a letter
that said I'd miss her
and i signed that goodbye
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I die)
it sets in but it's alright (the day that I die)
darkness falls I'm letting go (the day that I die)
all alone but I feel fine
We took a drive and
we drove through D.C.
to see the places we lived,
long conversations
we talked of old friends
and all the things that we did
The summer nights, drunken fights
mistakes we made....did we live it right?
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I die)
it sets in but its alright (the day that I die)
darkness falls I'm letting go (the day that I die)
all alone but I feel just fine
You know the happiest day of my life
I swear the happiest day of my life
I know the happiest day of my life
is the day that I die
Can you feel the cold tonight? (the day that I die)
it sets in buts its alright (the day that I die)
darkness falls I'm letting go (the day that I die)
all alone but I feel fine
Did I live it right?
I hope I lived it right,
Did I live it right?
I know i lived it right
Did I live it right?
I hope I lived it right

Rest of My Life
by: Unwritten Law
Am I the only one that feels alone
Though, all is home
Emotions flow
Am I the only one that hears the tears run down my face
Would anybody recognize at all
Cause I know
I'm so slow
But I'm tryin
And I'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my
Life's the only thing that deals the pain
Like pouring rain down
Breeding hate
And I don't wanna do no wrong
My God, it's been so long
Please comfort me
Before I go insane
Cause I know
I'm so slow
But I'm tryin
And I'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
I know
I'm so slow
But I'm trying
And I'm still dying to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
the rest of my life, na na na na na na na na na na
I'm so stoned
But i'm tryin
And i'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my
I can't have you leave for the rest of my
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
Am I the only one that feels alone
Though, all is home
Emotions flow
Am I the only one that hears the tears run down my face
Would anybody recognize at all
Cause I know
I'm so slow
But I'm tryin
And I'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my
Life's the only thing that deals the pain
Like pouring rain down
Breeding hate
And I don't wanna do no wrong
My God, it's been so long
Please comfort me
Before I go insane
Cause I know
I'm so slow
But I'm tryin
And I'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
I know
I'm so slow
But I'm trying
And I'm still dying to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
the rest of my life, na na na na na na na na na na
I'm so stoned
But i'm tryin
And i'm still dyin to know
Say you won't leave for the rest of my
I can't have you leave for the rest of my
Say you won't leave for the rest of my life
Down The Avenue
Days gone by so fast. Another year has ended. And life must go on...
I was walking down the avenue realizing I was walking alone. I thought of going home but i'd be alone their either. So i walked the streets, unafraid, puffing my cigarette. I've met some familiar faces along the way and smiled. It felt good, somehow they were real. A lot of things crossed my mind as I continue strolling along the corners of the city especially when I passed by the restaurants and food chains i used to dine in. Sometimes with my friends. Sometimes family. Sometimes a lover. I wasn't thinking of the food but the time of bonding I have relished. The food they serve will always be served there. But people just come and go. I can always go back there. But i could never get back some people I have dined with there. "Life's like a box of chocolates. you will never know what you're gonna get. I just remembered Forrest Gump. And also the novel of Charles Martin, WRAPPED IN RAIN. “Tucker, I want to tell you a secret,” Miss Ella curled my hand into a fist and showed it to me. “Life is a battle, but you can’t fight it with your fists. You got to fight it with your heart.”
I went to a bar. And drank alone. Anyway, i didn't get bored. I had the waiters and security guards entertain me. It was like home. A comfort zone. I ordered a bottle of Red Horse beer. It felt really nice as i took one gulp. The coldness touched my throat. What a relief! I was really thirsty. I looked outside. Not minding the blasts of the speakers. My mind traveled miles and miles away. I remembered my friends and the people I met there. The nights I have spent a few thousands for a night. I felt I became wasted. I always told myself it's the enjoyment of being there with the company of some friends and acquaintances. But the reason was I really am sad. It just occurred to me. I'm spending a lot not because I want to enjoy but to ease the pain. It's really hard being alone. I have some people at home. I still feel alone though all is home.
I wanted to bang my head on the table but I just smiled. I am in control of my life. And I realized my fuel was almost empty. Unnoticed because I was busy looking for anyone to ride on. I wasn't in a wrong direction. I was just slowly moving on. I need an overhaul. I need to refuel. So I could still ride down the avenue...
