Live life with no regrets, but if you must, regret only what you can change...

TWO CHILDREN
Two children are holding hands, playing a dangerous game
It doesn’t matter what happens. Everything will stay the same.

Two children are staring at each other, playing a dangerous game.
Not caring about the risks. They moved closer to the flame.

Two children are kissing, playing a dangerous game.
Not knowing the results. They continued without shame.

Two children are pretending, playing a dangerous game.
Both without a clue about the feelings they could not tame.

Two children are being reckless, playing a dangerous game.
They tried their best to withdraw. But it was obvious when he came.

Two children are faced with problems, playing a dangerous game.
Now she’s scared of the future. He assures her everything's still the same.

Two children are fighting, playing a dangerous game.
He said they couldn’t do it. People will be ashamed.

Two children are falling apart, playing a dangerous game.
It was such a big decision to choose but the right one never came.

Two children are far too young to be playing such a dangerous game.
It was her who had decided but both children are to blame.

LAST NIGHT
Last night you held me in your arms
We were comfortable and warm
I felt your heart beat next to mine
During the night I felt our souls entwine

Last night you held me in your arms
And seduced me with your charms
Holding me tight; whispering in my ear
All the things you knew I wanted to hear

Last night you held me in your arms
You said I’d be forever safe from harm
I felt butterflies as my heart skipped a beat
I was so sure it was real; this time without deceit

Last night you held me in your arms
I let my guard down and I disarmed
But this morning you were gone and I became aware
How could you be with me if you were never really there?

SOMEBODY LOVED ME ONCE
Somebody loved me once
Many, many days ago
He loved me with all his heart
But I chose to let him go

Somebody loved me once
But I let him slip away
My mouth could not utter
The words I wanted to say

Somebody loved me once
His tears fell from his eyes upon me
How could I be so foolish?
For thinking I was free.

Somebody loved me once
But for some reason I was so sure
How could I be mistaken?
Thinking I had the cure?

Somebody loved me once
His eyes so blue and deep
He loved me unconditionally.
But my heart he could not keep

Somebody loved me once
But that love is no more
It was me who turned my back;
I cannot hurt him anymore

Somebody loved me once
But I will never know
How far his love could have taken me;
For I chose to let him go.

I'M IN LOVE WITH A MAN BUT HE DOESN'T EXIST
I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
His got perfect hair and bright blue eyes.
Tall and light skinned with a hint of a tan.
He makes me nervous with a flash his smile.

I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
He’s got a dozen tattoos with a bad boy stride.
He makes me laugh with incredible humour.
His got too much male ego and a sensitive side.

I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
He’s weird and at times obnoxious; that’s just his way.
He’s got more flaws than strengths and confidence is his step.
But he always knows the rights things to say

I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
This is my perfect man; the one I dream of, my Mr Right.
He believes in romance and treats me with respect.
He knows that I’m worth it; forever worth the fight.

I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
I’ve created him in my head; just a mere fantasy.
He exists with the fairy tales I read as a child.
Like the Fairy Godmother; he’s simply a fallacy.

I’m in love with a man but he doesn’t exist.
My Prince Charming living in the modern world.
But I’m not a Princess and there’s no Prince.
Only a fictional character that exists the mind of foolish girl.

TIME
Time is all I have and all that I will give you.
Time is all I’m wasting, all this time waiting on you.
Time is all I gain, if I ever do leave you.
But time won’t change the pain of losing you.
They say time will heal and in time we’ll see.
If in time I can learn to be just with me.

FRENEMY
You’re not my friend
I have a distorted view of you
It isn’t good, I feel confused.
This has to end.

You’re always there when I need you
Relaxing me and providing fun
But you’re good intentions are just that
It’s never really fun and it’s all just screwed

I have to stop this ridiculous attachment
It’s a phase which I must pass
You’re not really my friend
If you were, I wouldn’t feel so much resentment

But is it as easy as just turning my back
Letting and go and walking away
Live without you and not want you
Or will I need you when I begin to crack

I really need to let you go
This isn’t fun anymore
When trouble is all I find
Why do I want you so?

---
CONFUSION
Tell me something real
Frustration is overcoming me
and I need to know how to deal

These feelings are too strong
It’s only a matter of time
Until you realise there’s something wrong

Do you have feelings or lust?
Physical attraction is distorting
Your mind with words I just don’t trust

My hopes are too unrealistic
It’s never going to work
and it’s making me feel sick

You say its real
But you're hard to read
I never really know how you feel

LOSING BATTLE
I lie awake in bed and doubt begins to creep.
There's too just much on my mind
and once again I’m unable to fall sleep.

The little Angel’s telling me exactly what to do,
she’s making my decisions clear,
And telling me what’s true.

But the little Devil whispers in my ear,
It’s dangerously tempting;
These words that I begin to hear.

“It’s right there for me, the win’s in plain sight.”
But if that’s true then I don’t agree;
I shouldn’t have to fight.

I don’t believe there’s a prize to gain,
in this complicated battle;
a friendship torn is all that will remain.

EARLY MORNING THOUGHT PROCESS
You’re fast asleep, I am wide awake and it’s going on 5 am
It’s times like this I really wish that I just didn’t give a damn.
You told me to relax and that everything will be okay.
But something in my mind just doesn’t believe what you say.

I’d like to think I’m more secure than what I’m currently feeling.
This is strange, this isn’t me; who is this silly girl that I’m being?
I know that I’m confident, independent and strong.
Or is that I’ve I been in denial all along?

You’re still fast asleep, I’m still wide awake and it’s going on 6 am.
At this point, I’m frustrated and still wishing I didn’t give a damn.
How do I relax and pretend that everything will be okay?
I’m not angry just confused as to why I feel this way.

My insecurities are running high and it’s frustrating.
It’s so weird to me that I’m so scared, but yet I’m still staying.
It must be something about you, which I just can’t explain.
It’s a feeling that I must familiarise with once again.

You’re still fast asleep, I’m still wide awake and it’s going on 7am.
By now I really thought that I wouldn’t give a damn.
But I still do, but now it’s different and I know everything will be okay.
I’ve had time to think, I’m relaxed and I finally believe what you say.

Yeah, my insecurities are running high and it’s going to frustrate me.
But I am still confident, independent and strong; this is the girl you see.
There is something about you which I can’t explain.
But it’s the same something which keeps me returning again.

You’re still fast asleep, I’m still wide awake and it’s going on 8 am.
And at long last I finally don’t give a damn.
Because I know that you’ll wake up and there’s something I can’t miss.
You always do, make it all better with just a simple kiss.

MERRY GO ROUND
Once I saw happiness and now I see pain.
The truth is we’ll never be the same.
I hurt you and we both know it.
I broke you and everyone can see it.
A million little pieces which you put back together.
It doesn’t stop hurting but you’ve gotten stronger.
Sometimes you think of me and wonder if you still love me.
Sometimes I think of you and wonder if I still love you.
If we say the answer out loud, we’ll be back to where we started.
I’ve returned into your life and we act as if we never parted.
Like two children on a merry go round,
We know the ride is over but never get down.

TEMPTATION
Temptation is a Bad Mother –
Like the Devil it preys on your weakness,
Sweet and Seductive, in the guise of a Fine Brother.

It lures you with its scent and a body so fine
Its weapon of choice is an un-denying charm,
Which plays tricks on you and distorts your mind

Temptation is a Bad Mother –
Its takes you in and leaves you cold
Don’t ever fall for that Fine Brother….
