The shadow in the background of the morgue

The unsuspecting victim of darkness in the valley

We can live like Jack and Sally if we want

Where you can always find me

And we'll have Halloween on Christmas

And in the night we'll wish this never ends

We'll wish this never ends

(I miss you I miss you)

(I miss you I miss you)

Where are you and I'm so sorry

I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight

I need somebody and always

This sick strange darkness

Comes creeping on so haunting every time

And as I stared I counted

The Webs from all the spiders

Catching things and eating their insides

Like indecision to call you

and hear your voice of treason

Will you come home and stop this pain tonight

Stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me you're already

The voice inside my head (I miss you miss you)

Hoobastank - The Reason Lyrics

i'm not a perfect person. there are many things i wish i didnt do but i continue learning. i never meant to do those things to you. and so i have to say before i go, that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be a reason to start over new, and the reason is you

i'm sorry that i hurt you, its something i must live with everyday and all the pain i put you through, i wish that i could take it all away and be the one who catches all your tears, thats why i need you to hear

i'm not a perfect person, i never meant to do those things to you and so i have to say before i go that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be a reason to start over new, and the reason is you i've found a reason to show a side of me you didnt know a reason for all that i do, and the reason is you

* I Cant Make You Love Me

Turn down the lights, turn down the bed

Turn down these voices, inside my head

Lay down with me, tell me no lies

Just hold me close, don't patronize

Don't patronize me

Cause I can't make you love me if you don't

You can't make your heart feel something it won't

Here in the dark, in these final hours

I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power

But you won't

No, you won't

And I can't make you love me, if you don't

I’ll close my eyes, then I won't see

The love you don't feel, when you're holding me

Morning will come, and I'll do what's right

Just give me till then, to give up this fight

And I will give up this fight

Cause I can't make you love me if you don't

You can't make your heart feel something it won't

Here in the dark, in these final hours

I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power

But you won't

No, you won't

And I can't make you love me, if you don't

Ain't no use in you trying

* "Still Frame" (Trapt) Please help me 'cause I'm breaking down, this picture's frozen and I can't get out (of here) Believe me, I'm just as lost as you And every time I think I've finally made it I learn I'm farther away than I've ever been before I see the clock and it's ticking away, and the hourglass empty What the f*** do I have to say Keep it inside the image portrayed As if I couldn't stand losing as if I couldn't be saved, no way A small confession I think I'm starting to lose it I think I'm drifting away from the people I really need A small reflection on when we were younger We had it all figured 'cause we had everything covered Now we're older it's getting harder to see What this future will hold for us, what the f*** are we going to be? I'm afraid I'm falling farther away (from where I want to be) *


DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL

"Hands Down"
Breathe in for luck,

breathe in so deep,

this air is blessed,

you share with me.

This night is wild,

so calm and dull,

these hearts they race,

from self control.

Your legs are smooth,

as they graze mine,

we're doing fine,

we're doing nothing at all.

My hopes are so high,

that your kiss might kill me.

So won't you kill me,

so I die happy.

My heart is yours to fill or burst,

to break or bury,

or wear as jewelery,

which ever you prefer.

The words are hushed lets not get busted;

just lay entwined here, undiscovered.

Safe in here, from all the stupid questions.

"hey did you get some?"

Man, that is so dumb.

Stay quiet, stay near, stay close they can't hear...

so we can get some.

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me.

So won't you kill me, so I die happy.

My heart is yours to fill or burst,

to break or bury, or wear as jewelery,

which ever you prefer.

Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember,

I'll always remember the sound of the stereo,

the dim of the soft lights,

the scent of your hair that you twirled in your fingers

and the time on the clock when we realized it's so late

and this walk that we shared together.

The streets were wet

and the gate was locked so I jumped it,

and let you in.

And you stood at the door with your hands on my waist

and you kissed me like you meant it.

And I knew that you meant it,

that you meant it,

that you meant it,

and I knew,

that you meant it

, that you meant it.
