The Arrival

As of August 4th, 2008
I am in Brazil.

First class is to luxurious
as chocolate is to sweet


UNTITLED (seriously, there is no title)

[v1]
Lost for words, never felt so alone
While soaring on the ground
A brick just shattered what I thought was home
Now I’m left, with pieces and nowhere to go

With no one by my side
It get harder to hide
Words spinning fast, I just had to stop
But then I realized

[chorus]
With you I can be myself
Don’t have to pretend and be someone else
Just taking those small steps got me pretty far
No challenge too big, no distance too far
It kills me everyday to know
I’m losing you
But honestly, we’ll make it through

[v2]
Black and white, where’s the grey that patches up the spots?
You weren’t built up
Just to be knocked back down
After all, we’re not robots

Don’t worry, I’ll always be around
To comfort you, via email
Just promise me, you know life moves on
Nothing will go wrong

I mean it
Nothing can go wrong

[chorus]

[bridge]
We were so naïve, ignoring the path
That was shoved right in our faces
And we’re left with memories
Of how it used to be

You don’t know what you got until it’s gone
Everything was so right, until it’s wrong
It’s impossible to forget, but do you even want to?

[chorus]

Honestly, we’ll make it through
All it takes is me and you

The Move

As of April 20th, 2008
Sam is to South America
as Polar Bear is to Hawaii

It didn't click.

MY STAR
[v1]
Bright lights shine down, can you feel them too?
It doesn’t seem real, how can it be true?
Someone just picked up
My life and shook it around

I’m looking for you
To keep my feet on the ground
Even if we fall,
I just want you to know

[chorus]
You’re the star in the sky
That always keeps me awake
You’re the star in the sky
That never seems to fade
And though things are changing
Rearranging
Way too fast to slow down now
I know you’ll always be
My star

[v2]
Times are rough
Don’t know how I’ll get through
One day is enough
What else can I lose?

I’d give all I have
For just one day with you
Listen to your heart beatfast
So I can know that it’s true

[chorus]


[bridge]
So what happens when things don’t work out?
I don’t know how hold this pain
I’m on the edge, so close to the break now
Why do I feel so ashamed?

The worst about having things perfect
Was knowing it would never last
And it all, just goes to show

[chorus]
I know you’ll always be
My star

I need you more
Show me a sign
You’re divine as an angel
So
Please be mine
