Carry Me

August 13th, 2009

It all started out
As a simple request
Nothing intended
No interest
But it all got too deep – and
Thoughts began flowing
Carried away
I’m not sure where I’m going

[Chorus:]
I don’t know what to do
I’m so lost in my head
And I try to go forward
But backwards instead
And the clock keeps on ticking
Time keeps on moving
And I am so small
And I am still losing

My mind and my thoughts
They just won’t tag along
And for once I’m not confused
But for once it’s not wrong
And it’s only their opinions
But mine isn’t me
Then when I turn around
I don’t like what I see

[Chorus:]
I don’t know what to do
I’m so lost in my head
And I try to go forward
But backwards instead
And the clock keeps on ticking
Time keeps on moving
And I am so small
And I am still losing

And here I am
Just looking in the mirror
And who I thought I was
Is no longer clear
It’s just me in the world
Not sure what to say
Because speaking my thoughts
I get carried away

[Chorus:]
I don’t know what to do
I’m so lost in my head
And I try to go forward
But backwards instead
And the clock keeps on ticking
Time keeps on moving
And I am so small
And I am still losing

Please just pull me back
To who I once knew
I can’t keep on going
Just knowing it’s you
You didn’t say much
Or nothing at all
But here I am
Will you catch me where I fall

I Don’t Know

May 18th, 2009

I don’t know what to do
I just feel so alone
You used to keep me grounded
Now you won’t pick up the phone
I don’t know how I feel
It just can’t be real
As hours turn to days
I don’t know how to deal
I don’t know who I am
It gets worse every day
And the hardest part of life
Is just breathing through each day

Answer Me

April 27th, 2009

It started off like a math problem
Me plus you and the answer is unknown
Time went by and the equation was solved
And it’s going to end alone

It wasn’t me who solved it though
I wasn’t strong enough
It’s just the way it has to be
And I’m just not that tough

[Chorus:]
And when you hold my hand
You make it feel alright
The tears form in my eyes
And I don’t want to end tonight

Time keeps moving faster
And I’m spinning in confusion
All this time it was only me
Everything was an illusion

[Chorus:]
And when you hold my hand
You make it feel alright
The tears form in my eyes
And I don’t want to end tonight

I’ve never been so confused
I just don’t know what to do
I’ve never felt so afraid
I don’t want to lose you

[Chorus:]
And when you hold my hand
You make it feel alright
The tears form in my eyes
I just don’t want to end tonight
