I Wait
Loving you was self hate
When should I give up on you?
I wait and I wait and wait
For you to say you love me to
Take me away from this place
This torturous voice in my head
The expressionless look on your face
You deny everything you’ve just said
Did you ever have good intensions
Did you ever want to feel the same
Why did you fail to mention?
That trusting someone brought you shame
Loving you was self hate
When should I give up on you?
I wait and I wait and wait
For you to say you love me to
Do I fool myself
Do I fool myself
Want to love someone else
Nearly loved someone else
Loving you was self hate
I’m giving up on you
I wont wait I wont wait I wont wait
Ill find someone that loves me to

Lines In The Sand

Lines in the sand
Lines in the sand
Where the children play
Where they hold their hands
For their worlds not built our way
Lines in the sand
Where they’ve all grown up
In a stretch of land
Where the children are blown up
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?
Lines in the sand
Where the mothers talk
Now a ruined land
Where their orphans learn to walk
Lines in the sand
Where history fades
Where man is dammed
To live inside a blockade
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?
Lines in the sand
Where the warnings drop
The promised land
But the guns never cease or stop
Lines in the sand
That were drawn by men
Who don’t understand
That they do what was done to them
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?
Where do you go when the bombs fall?
Where can you run within four walls?

Baby Girl
I gotta get away
I gotta be on my own
You’ve got nothing more to say
But I keep on checking my phone
Im learning from my mistakes
The next ones ill give her more time
Dealing with hearts I didn’t break
The only one I break is mine
Baby girl, I know, I could show you love
But you wont take it
Baby girl, your heart, has taken to much
And your scared that ill break it
But never mind
Ill be alright in time
When I get my head straight
Now its me that’s the bad man
I’ve been leading this girl on
But deep down I’m a sad man
Trying to feel right doing wrong
See its all about timing
If its not you then its me
It’s a ladder we are climbing
And when I’m at A your at B
Baby girl, I know, I could show you love
But you wont take it
Baby girl, your heart, has taken to much
And your scared that ill break it
But never mind
Ill be alright in time
When I get my head straight
Now who’s the abuser
And which one of us is abused
If I’m your confuser
Then why do I feel confused
Now who is the bruiser
And which one of us is left bruised
If I am user
Then why do I feel so used
Baby girl, I know, I could show you love
But you wont take it
Baby girl, your heart, has taken to much
And your scared that ill break it
But never mind
Ill be alright in time
When I get my head straight
Girl do you love me, I need to know
I’ve got people to meet yeh, I’ve got places to go
Girl do you love me?
You better say soon
Cus I've this new woman
She wants to be my small spoon
Girl do you love me? I need to know
I got people to meet yeh, I got places to go
Girl do you love me, will you just tell me straight
I’m needing your answer, I can no longer wait
Baby girl, baby girl, baby girl, baby girl……..

I Know

I Know
Trapped in my head
Cant explain to you what's wrong
So then I play dead
The only thing that feels strong
Stared into nothing
Just the pattern on the ceiling
The numbness crushing
When will I change the way I'm feeling
I know, one day these things will change
Someway, somehow
I know, one day ill fight the pain
I wish that day was now
I laugh and joke
To convince you I am sane
I nearly choke
Every time they ask my name
As heavy as lead
Was the smile on my face
The thoughts in my head
I hide them without trace
I know, one day these things will change
Someway, somehow
I know, one day ill fight the pain
I wish that day was now
