• "When love is lost, life is gained, and a whole new level of love is found."

    I used to think love was a fools game
    'Join us! Join us! Let us tear your heart to shreds!'
    The taunts, can you hear them?
    Calling out to you as you lay in bed?

    No..I don't want to play another day.
    Go away, leave me be
    to pick up the pieces of a shattered heart.
    This is a game I no longer play.

    Days pass, the maze builds,
    will anyone find their way to my heart?
    With such barriers put up in their way,
    might they just be torn apart?

    But you, you're different,
    you weaved and waved through this maze.
    You found the way to where I lay,
    and woke me from the endless daze.

    Who are you, that you can enter my heart,
    and pull me back into the game?
    I thought my life was perfect,
    but now I know it was lame.

    What is this treasure,
    that I hold forever dear?
    That keeps me going,
    and wipes away all my fears?

    Is it you, the one who found me,
    lost in the maze of my days?
    For you loved me and cared for me
    even though I fought to keep you away.

    The game is not love for it is shallow lies.
    My love was locked and buried in a chest
    until you unlocked it
    and gave me forever rest.


    -----------------------------------------



    I don't understand, just don't understand
    How things could get so, get so terribly bad
    We were so close at one time, You broke through my walls
    Managed to find me, in those empty halls

    Helped me be me, And I helped you, too
    So where did it go wrong? What did we do,
    to drift so far? We don't even talk,
    Your silence hurts, makes my heart sink like a rock.

    Our bond, so strong once, now just a strand.
    Barely holding on, it's slipping through my hand.
    I don't know how, but I'm still holding on
    Just can't stand it, the thought of you gone

    Once promised that, no matter what, I wouldn't let go
    Not unless you ask me to, I could never tell you no.
    Can I keep it? The promise I made...
    This promise, it's cutting through me like a blade...

    But that's not why I stay, no, never,
    I stay because I couldn't stand the thought of losing you forever.
    You've been there for me, you've helped me see
    Past the walls and barriers I had up, so others would leave me be,

    You tried, didn't you? Looked past it all...
    Somehow, you always seemed to stand so tall,
    I was always so grateful to God,
    for bringing you into my life, you were so odd.

    I tried to help, listen to your trouble
    But now rather then help, I just seem to make it double.
    I'm sorry, sorry that I can't show how much,
    how much I love you, I wish I could show you such.

    I don't think you would understand, not anymore,
    If I tried, I probably wouldn't hit the right score.
    I just don't understand, don't understand,
    How I let something so precious slip through my hands....
