Title: Faults

It's been such a slow and painful day
all I've been thinking, negative thoughts present
the tip of my tongue delayed
and the way you move me, darling
it's like you see right through me
you make this easier, a little easy

I wish I could be wiser, stronger, content
I fear you're letting me go, ever so slowly
your subtle pleasure through harsh actions


Chorus: you know that you could do a lot better
even though you choose to stay, every time I mention it
you say it's not my fault, but I'm made of faults, I'm full of error
it's getting dark in my eyes and you've taken away hope
all I've wanted, all I ever wanted is trust, that you'd take me home
you'd take me there, my bones soaked in regret now
soaked in your scent

worse things have happened, I can reassure you now
but it's all about perspective, bring me a view that feeds my ever growing heart
isn't there a brighter way, to feel something more
something more filling than this?

chorus

you give lighter ways, to feel something more
something more fulfilling than this

chorus

ending: and I'm waiting for the clouds to glide away
and my bones float, float, float towards you
I sail a thousand waves just to be closer
closer to whatever we could have ever been
if I wasn't always in doubt

Title: Be me

The guilt eats me up
knowing I could be so much better, better for you
I can notice you're trying, but it's not hard enough
and I can tell you've been crying, but your tears aren't of sadness
there made up of inner shame

I know that you need someone
so let it be me, let it be me
because you are the best thing
and it feels like I can't walk on
let it be me, let it be me


Chorus: it feels like I'm not even second best,
and I keep letting vulnerable moments pass
and I have no faith in this, I have no faith in myself
I reach over for hope and it slaps my hand
I can't remember feeling like I belong
I'd give anything, everything I have
just for this peace of mind, to finally be my own

I just need someone that can take this away
the faith is gone, and I've been waiting up all evening
just to hear your voice once more
and you're delayed, you always put me last
and so let it be me, let me carry on

chorus

ending: so let it be me,
because you are the best thing,
let it be me, I know that you need someone

Title: Stumbling

I'm folding stars just to be where you are
but you feel so close to me
and I beg to differ, sweetheart
you take my hand but I feel like we're drifting once again
and I can't bare to see this
it's such a dying shame

I wilter for you as we grow to different boundaries
and I push past every limit of us
I speak through kisses
you act through wishes I can't stand it
you could lie through the tip of your fingers
and I couldn't taste it

Chorus: I watch you crumble
as I want to walk away
but you know I could never leave you
not on a day like this
I watch you stumble into darker nights
and I'm lonely, so lonely for you
without your body by my side

I'm dragging my heels across water
just to feel your skin
the softness of your bones my darling, they seep within
and I can't help but taste it
all these words that I've yet to say
and I can't quite taste it
all this bitter love that's wasting away

chorus

ending: I'm folding stars just be, a little closer to you
I'm breaking my back every day just to talk, talk to you
and the power of words is seen, in this dire situation
and the power of love is outspoken by the body you hold

Title: Bed

You prove to me that love exists
in an empty world
you show me that you don't need to be an idea of perfection
it's in your mind that I'm something
that I mean anything at all

and the beauty of this
is that you're mine
mine for now

Chorus:  I'll keep a close eye on your warmth
for previously  others has run thin
and the coldness of your touch is non-existent
the meaning sinks within my skin
with every breath I take, with every gasp you make
I'm always aware of what it is that we have
I only hold your hand to get this feeling right
and it all just slows down
and there's no need to notice anymore

it's a different way
to feel how I felt with others
I can't compare them to you
previous faces
and I assure you your space in my bed
is of safety, and is reserved for your body only

I want to tell you
I want to show you everything
all the thoughts that drapes around my head
I want to breathe you in
I want to show you it all
all the actions that linger on the tips of my fingers
that want to feel your skin

chorus


ending: I want to feel it all again
the rush of knowing where I am
I always belong here, in those arms of yours
a safe haven
a place for me to show you again

Title: I do for you

The mood spills in
your scent lingers on every wound
I'd rather be restless, the second you stop
my troubles catch up, yet you still leave me breathless
I disappear in silk sheets
I disappear into your body

My blood runs for you
the pace of my heart walks steady
it's the only way to assure you
that every thing, every little thing
I do for you, tonight

Chorus: I can no longer dream peacefully
knowing that you have the ability to leave, at any time
it floods my body in fear
but I know you'd never leave darling
you've seen too much, you've been tested
I do it all for you, tonight


I hear your voice louder,
I feel the depth of your warm breath
and I feel you getting closer
I can't explain to you darling
how often I think of this
how often I want you
the need for your touch


chorus


ending: I lay awake, unbusy
and without you I'm lost
it breaks my heart knowing that you could have done so in the beginning
we'll never grow apart
it's something I know that you can do
but I'd like to think you love me more than that
the idea of seperation

Title: To think

For you, I grow like daffodils in spring
and I'd forever improve, just to have this one win
this mess we've made, so beautifully chaotic
but it's now, that I miss you the most
when I think about us ending

our day will come, if we wait a while
I'll see those piercing eyes of yours
and it will all be alright
so let me lay my head
right next to yours
and this is everything
we share this

Chorus: if we had waited a while
would we ever be here
and we could have missed this, so easily
I'll never fake this love
I'll always wear your smile
I'll stay in love this way
and this is everything
all that we are
you and I
together
unison

I don't have room left in this heavy heart of mine
with every touch you prove my belief in our love
I couldn't ask for another
I couldn't ask for a better you
you do me well, you do me right

chorus

ending: and it's being awoken
catching the last glimpse of your tired mind
and it's in this state that I love you the most
when I think about us, neverending

Title: Stick by you

You sleep so softly, upon the bay
I watch your body as the ocean sways
and to kiss your lips, a necessity, necessity
and to hold your body, baby
next to me, next to me
a washed out  feeling
belonging to me, to me

you are the one that makes me feel
secure and happy
emotionally and physically
you provide with me,  with all I'll ever need
I do fine by you


Chorus: it shows on my skin
and its buried on my hands
I wear myself out
expressing just how much
you mean to me, darling
how much you mean to me

I sleep in silk sheets
I sleep beside you
and I kiss your body
and you kiss mine too

we're sewn into another
stuck on the remaining pieces
we've outdone ourselves, this time

oh and darling,
I will miss you, so hard
when you leave

chorus

for you to return
to come back to me
a  victory in itself
a day I long to see

and I promise to teach you
every day of your life
I will write words of wisdom on your lips
and that's how you'll get by

chorus

ending: and you to me, darling
are everything that I have been missing
and you to me, darling
oh this is such a blessing
I promise and I'll prove
just how much I love you, baby
and I'll take you into the safer shallows
and I'll stick with you
