Praying for Chloe

defended by something in the air,
your surroundings have been raided
the sky isn't changing anytime soon
so I pray for your health, because I want to hold you
you'll be an angel when you get here
with all the need for attention
I pray you'll make it out fine
so just keep your eyes closed and dream up a place new
you'll see that dreams can come true when the time is right
my biggest dream came true when I met the world
I just never knew my eyes were closed

Carry Me (believeme)

tomorrow is a day yet to come without a promise
so have faith when I say
I am sick of taking today for advantage
you keep forgetting
who I was yesterday is just a shadow of who I will be next year
when life spins you webs,
keep on flying into them, because you can stick to something stronger

I keep wishing for you,
so believe me when I say you are coming to me through channels unseen

when things are different than planned,
throw away today, hold on to tomorrow

when I lose my footing,
will you carry me or will you throw me out the window?

believe me when I say,
this working title motion picture is in principle photography

the bigger picture is still out there somewhere,
under piles of your dreams and problems

you can condense me down to a single thread,
but you always will try to fill me up
my life has been spinning webs for centuries,
where will yours spin you?

Real

to ignite,
to hold for a short time
to lose everything
you are real
you are everything

to smother,
to never let go
to be timid on these feelings
I am here
I am somewhere I belong

you fade away
I can still see you
you ride behind me
I feel like you are showing me everything

to wrap up,
to walk out
to feel lost while staring at a map
without you, I don't exist
without you, I am not real

you are real my love
so keep holding on to me
even when I am out of sight

Carry Me (holdon)

out of reach
betrayed, diminished, distorted
only three words

it explains everything
crashing, falling, crushed
just hold on

tell your heart
hold on, now
just carry me

now we sit
separated, removed, static
in pieces waiting

even while weak
breathe, listen, see
while oceans sink

three words later
i love you
i am torn

nine times nine
hold on tight
this rides over

you hold on
gripping, releasing, requesting
oh young love

you walked out
goodbye, come back
i need you

Carry Me (nowforever)

pounding somehow
I just lost who I am

who was I back when the sun had rose?
where was I back when you came home?
sometimes I feel like you are all that is holding me
and then I remember, that you are

so here is to the days I forgot I made you feel alive
back when I made you laugh
I felt alive

when you hold me in place
I will ask you to carry me, carry me
now and forever
all I ever wanted was you

so now you want to exit the frame
holding on to everything that i love
and as the curtain falls
the act remains unleft

you are my supporting actor
the one who pulled me back
when any foolish mistake could have been made
you carried me
and said now and forever

According to Them

there is so much left to say
let me pick up
right where I left off-

I spoke to him, and all he had to say was
if it wasn't supposed to happen, then it never would
have happened

when he told me, the world is going to change day by day
you will wake up feeling so much different
now it's time to go

so now...
the whole picture has painted itself
within these days, forget what we say
all that matters is everything we may (become)

there is no place for me
there is nowhere left to go when you leave me
according to them, I never can become this
as time folds itself I withdraw my balance

I am running on this

While You Were Out

this car kept breaking down
with a lack of your presence
I didn't know what to do

I could have used your love for some of these harsh moments
because the pillar in time
needed a pillow to find
the sand box fills up from our love

our hearts have been waiting again
I wish I was with you to make sure
that you weren't crashing too
