You're Nothing Today

Nothing

Only broken, by those close to me
No one else can touch me
Nothing, But the truth, out to hurt me

Falling faster now I'm growing older
But I'm still young inside
Nothing, but my fears trapped inside

And I can cry.......all night.
And you can love, for no reason.
And we can sigh all the time.

But we're nothing tonight.
And we'll be nothing tomorrow.
And we were nothing yesterday.
And we never will.

It will cost me everything
I will miss you everday
Nothing, I can do to change you

Your past is killing me
And there's nothing we can do
to change you

But we're nothing tonight
And we'll be nothing tomorrow
And we were nothing yesterday
And we never will. We never will
I'm stil in love with you.

Sleepy

Wake... from your sleep
and run away with me.
Always... coming up
With new stuff,

Now look at me,
Fallen again,
A slight little stumble,
Cost me a win.

And someday I'll go insane
and some night I'll pray.....

Sleeping little sunflowers,
will someday fly away.
And no matter what happens
They'll always land,
Safely.

You look, to my left.
Like I could try.
You breathe, silent.
Everyone's away.

We have, something moral,
stashed away.
What's going on
in your brain... Are we ok?

Sleeping little sunflowers
Will someday fly away
And no matter what we do
We'll always land, safely.

To belong,
To belong,
Someday,
To belong,
One day,
To belong,
I pray,
We will belong.
Belong.

With All Modesty

Everything you say,
can work a couple ways.

It's who I am.
Don't like it much,
but I live.

And if I could....
I would be you.....
I wish I was.

Destined to be another person
In your wonderful life
I don't care

Friends,
Hospitals,
Stress Balls,
I'm an uptight freak.

But actually,
They all love you.
(with all modesty)
They really do.

I know what your thinking
and it frightens me.

Although I don't understand you
And I know I never will.

But actually,
They all love you.
(with all modesty)
They really do.

Time,
Hope,
A pretty girl,
A pretty bird,
I love you.
(with all modesty)
I do.

[you always have more fun]

I had nothing better to do than oversleep
I had nothing better to do than to hope for a good dream

You got up early in the morning
Even though you didn't get to bed till 2:30

You had places to go and people to see
Going places with new friends and enjoying new things

I should get out of the house,
it hurts a lot
I should get out of the house,
it eats me alive

So I went to my friends and watched a circumsicion
It was the only thing we could find on the television

But you always have more fun
you always have more fun
than the rest of us

[(admit it)]

Things for you always work out (admit it)
You always have a place to go (admit it)
There's always someone waiting (admit it)
It must be nice with your luck (admit it)
You're popular and you love it (admit it)
You have money and you show it (admit it)
You're smart and you know it (admit it)
It must be nice with you luck (admit it)
But someday you're gonna fall hard (I know it)

[as great as this]

I don't understand why you act like that
The winds will change directions
Nothing makes sense

I call you up on the telephone
I get attitude that you've never shown

All I wanted was to make you happy
All I had to do was to bring you someplace
As great as this

It's something undescribable
It's something not possible
You can't even imagine
You can't even think about it
I couldn't believe it
I couldn't control it
Just wait till you see it
Just wait till you hear it
Can you even think that there's anything
As great as this
