Wishing Time

There's a shooting star

In the night sky

I'm holding my breath

Is it wishing time?

Where do you go when your heart's been broken?

What is there to say when you've lost it all?

You opened up, the places you swore would stay hidden,

Became exposed and now it's all been poisoned.

Chorus:

I don't know what to do

Other than wishing on myself

Trust in myself and no one else.

Every lover lets you down,

No one will ever love me like I do,

Like I do.

I've been going at this

For way too long

Dreaming on dreams

That will never come true.

Where do you go when loving is your place in this world?

What is there to say when you've given it your all?

You tried to be strong, you've been pushed too hard, too long

Became a fighter and now all you see is the reflection of you, on your own.

Chorus

I don't know what to do

Other than wishing on myself

Trust in myself and no one else.

Every lover lets you down,

I deserve more than this, so much more

I need it.

Chorus

Every lover lets you down,

I deserve more than this, so much more,

That I do.

Forever

You are forever

My favorite devil of the heart.

Telling me stories and

Creeping into my mind.

Go Silent Like Stark Stars

She's going to be silent at some point.

You realize that, right?

You tell her you love her.

Tell her you need her.

Tell her that if there were a chance,

She'd be the weighing factor for your happiness;

That you both could be happy.

Together.

But you tell her that,

Give sweet words.

Memories.

Grab her around the waist when you meet--

Pulling her in, with a slow, gentle grace.

Everything is love.

In your touches.

Your movements.

Each other's sighs.

And then a switch it flipped,

Like on and off,

And she's forced back into your shadows.

She loves you, you know she always will.

She's said it,

But what more,

She's proved it.

You can't keep a woman like that hidden though.

You can't choose other lives without her being pivotal--

Not without her straightening her spine,

Smiling. Loving from inside.

Telling herself that she's fine being friends,

Even though it's the most complicated aspect of her own life,

And always will be.

She's going to find someone else, somehow, some place--

To be the second dawning, to give her a slice of happiness

That she is most deserving.

She will talk, but you may have to pull it out of her.

Where once she wished she could tell you everything,

Share every moment, she will bite her tongue.

You pushed this. You didn't understand that playing games was bad.

She was more worth to you than you could ever find,

And she deserved more than you,

But her heart was only yours.

Now. Now it's time for someone to steal a piece of that big heart.

She doesn't know where.

Doesn't know when.

Doesn't know who.

But she's willing to try.

She's hoping on stars in the sky.
