Memories

I remember when I was crying
and you were there to break my fall
and you always hated to see my tears
So I stopped crying around you

I remember when I was being picked on
and you defended me
and you always got between me and danger
So I stopped getting into trouble

I remember when I couldn't stand on my own two feet
and you took me hand
and you were always supporting me...

So I got a little stronger
tried to take my burden off your shoulders
cause it was never yours to carry
and I don't care if it kills me
to let you live your life
without me to look after
cause I've never been good
at anything but running away
until today

Fair-Weather Friend

Dear Fair-Weather Friend,
I've been there for you
through thick and through thin
but you've never been more
than a Fair-Weather Friend
You've told me you care
just to keep me nearby
in case you need my shoulder
in case you need to cry
I told you I'd be here
For you 'til the end
but you're still nothing more
than a Fair-Weather Friend

Life

Life is like a dance
Sometimes it's slow and smooth
Sometimes it's fast and furious
Some people know all the moves
Some people are just making things up as they go
But only the people out on the floor are really having a good time

Dreaming

I see the past through one eye
and the present through the other
and I'm always walking towards the future
it doesn't feel like I'm getting anywhere at all
Am I even moving?
Is any of this real?
maybe I'm only dreaming....

I'm living for the here and now
but I don't know if I'm living at all
I just keep walking towards the blurry horizon
it doesn't feel like I'm getting anywhere at all
Am I even moving?
Is any of this real?
maybe I'm only dreaming....

When will it be my turn?
and will I ever get the chance?
And how will I ever know if I'm alive
If I never get to color outside these lines?
it doesn't feel like I'm getting anywhere at all
Am I even moving?
Is any of this real?
maybe I'm only dreaming....
