I used to dream about love
Of the tall, dark mysterious kind
I had it all figured out
Even what we would argue about
You took up most of my time
Non-existing you still filled my mind
There was no room left for those
Who were too real, too palpable
You would walk up to me mumbling awkwardly
Not quite knowing what to do with your feet
I’d be all starry eyed from such a pretty sight
And then we would kiss and your breath would taste sweetly of mint
But as my fantasies grew
I found myself bored with you
Until one day I had enough
Of this love who refused to show up
So when I woke from my dream
She just stepped right in front of me
Somehow mysteriously
It was sweeter than I even dreamed of how sweet love could be
She just walked up to me talking quite charmingly
Making jokes ‘bout how badly I sing
I was all starry eyed and later petrified
That one day I will wake up all alone to find she too is only a dream

Like a Dream

As I was leaving she said to me
“Baby, I’m scared of what I might do”
Just don’t fall in love, dear, ‘cause then I will kill you
That’s all I’m asking of you
I shouldn’t be here, I should write my CV
But that makes me want to hurt myself
Walking for hours but still getting nowhere
The pavement just sticks to my feet
If only I had someone to meet
I turn on the radio and across the ocean
Her voice cuts right through to me
I wish I could show her the cherry trees in blossom
But nature just gives her the creeps
She’d still say “Baby, that’s sweet”
Don’t ask my name, love just call me whatever
I’ll be who you want me to be
Cities this big have a way to destroy me
So don’t you be holding on to me
I’m already fading like a dream

Otherwise

I’m alright
But my eyes say otherwise
Stay a while
I’m not this hopeless all the time
Let’s go out
Can’t stand these days much less these nights
I want to hide
But you keep clinging to my mind
I can’t help if I fall into
Sometimes I think you want me to be as bad as you
You’re not fine
But your friends say otherwise
They’ll stay a while
Until they too get left behind
You go out
But you can’t shake it from your mind
All this time
Wish you’d have me by your side
I’m not half without anyone
But you keep me together like no one has ever done
I can’t help if we fall apart
Why I should have known from the start this would break our hearts

Please stop trying so hard
To be what you already are
You’re my shining star
You are my shining star
It’s hard but don’t apologize
We all fail miserably sometimes
I’ll try but I will not succeed
That’s fine just don’t think less of me
I can’t stop you from crying
So let’s wait it out
You keep me from dying
On the inside
Please don’t look at me like that
As if I’m all you ever had
You’ll try to go on like before
That’s fine but now you expect more
I can’t stop you from crying
So let’s wait it out
You keep me from dying
For a little while

Don't Look for Me

I can’t read your mind, darling
What you say is what I’ll hear
If you tell me I’m too much of something
I will slowly disappear
I could feed you all of my stories
If you only let me breathe
But with your hand on my shoulder
I even find it hard to stand
All of your great expectations
I do not wish to meet
I don’t have whatever you are missing
It’s best to admit defeat
In your search for that special something
I could keep you company
When you find it, it will turn into nothing
So don’t you ever look for me
In the light of a cold, white morning
We will use our legs to dance
We might stumble, but don’t go falling
There’s no place for us to land
