The pitter patter of raindrops on glass
Is a greater song than any muse
Could even dream or imagine.
A lullaby known only by angels
So soft that an infant could sleep while
Its sung, but loud enough,
For the whole world to know by heart.
No one knows the words, but
All know its effects.
Soothing, Relaxing, Calming, Peaceful
To the body and mind, and to heart and soul.
You forget the world, if only for a while.
You create new memories, which can last
Two lifetimes.
Why can't I do anything, except fall
(It does seem that way )
I can't help but to try and break, through this wall
(I wish you'd go away )
My heart grows heavier with every step you take;
Even if it was a step closer or a step away
Won't you hold still, even for my sake?
[Chorus]
These ropes are breaking, and I'm still thinking
I have got this uneasy feeling
About this scary sensation of sinking
I'm falling from grace
I'm falling from grace
I'm falling from grace
---
I can hear the voices that keep me here
Telling me to look at what I still have
But how do I know if you're sincere?
How do I make a whole out of halv

1) I'm all alone now, I'm a memory
I won't cause problems,
I'll just melt away.
Even though I've grown-.
2) These thoughts of mine, they are
Bittersweet.
I'm my own now,
I feel complete.
(What have you learned from this?)
(Cause now it's my turn-.)

Simple minds find simple pleasures
Easy to win and easier to lose
The good ones always die young
So why do the bad ones die slowly-?
-Chorus 1-
I won't stop worrying, it's just my nature
I won't leave it be, it's just my poison
You won't blame me, how could you do this?
I've already lost my mind.
-Chorus 2-
It's my t
Does she? Does she not? Does she? Does she not?
Pedal after Pedal I try to decide,
As I pace back and forth and walk over my barren flowers.
She wont stay out of my mind
But does that mean she should stay there?
Even in my unstable nature,
I find a certain degree of peace and happiness
When she gives me that smile.
I cant help but to wince at the thought
That I may miss this chance
But I shudder at the thought, of me diving down,
But then having to climb back up
Once more, just after I caught my breath.
Perhaps I need this, maybe I dont
I pick another flower
I pick another pedal
Does she? Does she not?
I still sit here, watching day go to dusk
Observing my spent flowers
and wondering about my last one
anxiously I pick the pedals,
repeating the same two words
again and again and again.
I smile when I pull the last pedal.
Nervousness should grip me, but
there is no wrong answer when I'll ask.
I know she's thought about it,
I know she's thinking about it,
I know she wants me to think about it.
Any answer will give me relief, because
there is no wrong answer.
I stare downwards, and I smile,
I glance behind me, and I wonder.
I look at my hands, and I shiver.
I send myself down, with a leap.
I free fall and, its too late.
When I hit the bottom, then Ill know.
In the meantime, while I fall,
Ill keep my hands, keep them here,
On my parachute chord, hoping and praying
That it wont be necessary.
Can you feel the rhythm of my heartbeats?
Pumping life throughout my body, tell me
How do you feel right now, behind these seats?
Hidden from eyes, be who you want to be.
I feel electric, lucky, and happy.
Your smile gives me reason to smile,
For months thats all I was, just unhappy.
Cant believe it took me all this while...
But the words that ring in my head are yours
After a day of pain, stress and sickness;
Its great to wake up to you, my heart soars.
Happy to see you sleep, end this thickness
Of my head, my stupor; take off with wings
While Ill sleep here, dreaming of stuff and things.

Last thoughts before I Sleep.
I try so hard to dream at night, to dream
Of the pleasant last thoughts before I sleep.
Thoughts, feelings, memories, they reign supreme
On my mind, and I want them all to keep.
I want to hold you in my arms, and not
Have to let you go, just so that I can
Catch my breath once more. Its hard just to stop,
And think whats next? after all this began.
I want to keep these thoughts, and I dont doubt
That youre the one I want to dream about.
