excuse me, but can I be you for a while?
my dog wont bite if you sit real still
I got the anti-christ in the kitchen yellin at me again
yeah I can hear that

been saved again by the garbage truck
I got something to say, you know, but nothing comes
yes - I know what you think of me; you never shut up...
yeah I can hear that

but what if I'm a ( Read more... )

I can't wait
to be with you
no I just can't sit still...
are we there yet?
takes me back,
I remember
such a magical place
it was all you

closing in
I hope that you make it
closing in
I hope that you find your way

frame by frame
red speed ahead
a city dissolving
the threat of your love in the headlightsis it safe now ( Read more... )

by my side ( Read more... )

I thought you'd be out of my mind ( Read more... )

so this is how it goes
well I... I would have never known
and if it ends today
I'll still say that you shine brighter than anyone

now I think we're taking this too far
don't you know that it's not this hard?
well it's not this hard
but if you take what's your's and I take mine
must we go there?
please not this time, no, not this time

well this is ( Read more... )

It's almost 3am. Really it is. I'm sleeping in Bec's room tonight - she's in Sydney for the weekend - and my laptop is plugged into her room. The electric blanket is on, I'm showered and my hair is dry and looking pretty. It's a shame no one gets to see it. Oh well. I'm in my pjs, and I'm drinking mint hot chocolate, I'm listening to the Goldilocks ( Read more... )

we've tried so hard to understand,
but we can't
we held the world out in our hands
and you ran away

it takes some time to let you go and it shows

cause all we know is falling,
it falls...
remember how?
cause I know that we won't forget at all

now we can follow you back home
but we won't
is this what you had waited for?
just to be alone?

must be something in the air, she said,
that makes it so square when we get together
feels like snakes in my hair
and it feels all wrong somehow
by the wall I fell, well,
maybe next year I'll fall
I don't care
cause for alarm
you know I mean it so
you know I mean it so
you know I mean it so...
so truly

///Truly - Something for Kate

Truly.

the scratching of paper and pen
reminds me of a song I wrote two years back
I remember each and every line like a photo
glued to the lids of my eyes

the shiver of my wheezing chest
reminds me of the way I felt two years back
and as we lose all track of time
I feel her breathe like ice on the tip of my spinethe shake before I sleep ( Read more... )

I had my very last lecture EVER today. My very last one. Claire took a photo... it still kind of hasn't sunk in. I've been so caught up with the fact I was finishing earlier than I'd planned, I forgot that now I'm just finishing up at the same time as everyone else. It's surreal. It's surreal because I know that in one or two or three years time, I ( Read more... )
