My Lyric Book
Songs, most with personal meaning, but some without.
@LGAE: "I Know My Place"
"I Know My Place"
@LGAE ©2013

Let me tell you a story
About a kid and a shooting star
That shone with so much glory
And the way it had taken him far

Stand and stare...

Oh-
Sing it, sing out
Your dreams and hopes-
Stand up, stand out
Artistic strokes
Reach for the sky and
Reach for a new land
It's yours for the taking
It's yours for the taking
Oh- Oh- Oh- Oh- (Yours for the taking)

It was just an itty bitty
Small dream to see the city
Where the lights shine like the stars
But it wasn't long before
I found out what I adore
And I know that's where you are.
That's where you- are-

Stand and stare...

Oh-
Sing it, sing out
Your dreams and hopes-
Stand up, stand out
Artistic strokes
Reach for the sky and
Reach for a new land
It's yours for the taking
It's yours for the taking
Oh- Oh- Oh- Oh- (Yours for the taking)

Stand and stare...
Stand and stare...

Breathe in the atmosphere-
Change is what's in the air-
I realize now that I know my place
It's here and it's now
I know my place...
And my place is with you
With care I lay my hand
To catch the morning dew
From your joyous eyes and
We can start over new
We can start over new

Stand and stare...





@LGAE: "Keep Falling"
"KEEP FALLING"
@LGAE ©2012

Keep fallin’, keep fallin’…
The world grows cold, as I fill up with all my hands can hold,
With water from thunderstorms. That fall like your tears that,

Keep fallin’, Keep keep fallin’ fallin’.
They keep fallin’, O-o-oh o-ooh.
They just keep falling down, and down…

Like, when you here alone that day, when he wasn’t there when you needed him most.
And how could that be, when the love struck teens were oh-so close.
Now all that lies before you, is a road that no one but us can see.
It will take you so far away, and all I can say,
Is that this road is a part of life that everyone will see.
And at the other side you will be, all that you can with all that you have.
So open up your bedroom window, and see me outside waiting for you,
And all I can say is, “Baby jump into my arms right now…” and as you climb out of your room,
You get this feeling inside, and all you do is,

Keep fallin’, Keep keep fallin’ fallin’.
You keep fallin;, O-o-oh o-ooh.
You just keep falling down, and down…

And when you land into my arms, I smile with glee,
I say to you, “Will you please walk this road with me.
There’s no time to waste, but please, take your time.
Don’t rush this, you’ll be just fine.”
In the end, where you’ll feel sympathy, for yourself,
And you think of how far you have left,
Just clear your mind, for there’s still a ways to go,
Take baby steps, and take it slow.
And when that white light bursts from the horizon,
I look at you and all I see is a big smile, and watery eyes,
And as you cry your tears keep falling down!

Your tears are falling down.
Oh God they Keep fallin’
Keep keep fallin’ fallin’.
They keep fallin’. O-o-oh o-ooh
They just keep falling down, and down,
They keep fallin’. Keep keep fallin’ fallin’.
They keep fallin’, O-o-oh o-ooh…





@LGAE: "Spread Your Wings"
"Spread Your Wings"
@LGAE ©2012

We say, life’s gunna turn around.
We say, we’re gunna make a sound.
But whoa, did it turn around.
And whoa, did we make a sound.
So now listen here…
It’s not so bad… It’s not so bad…

When you cried that night,
And I didn’t know…
You died inside,
I couldn’t stand the sight.
And I’m here for you now…
If you were to abide,
I’ll put you in my arms tonight…

Did you, think this would go wrong?
Did you, know I would write this song,
for you..?
For you, it’s for you.
And I cried so hard, when I heard you falling down.
Down, down, down,
All the way through the clouds,
And you lost your wings…
Now your heart sings…
Sings the words of misery…
Misery…

When you cried that night,
And I didn’t know…
You died inside,
I couldn’t stand the sight.
And I’m here for you now…
If you were to abide,
I’ll put you in my arms tonight…

Open your eyes you’ve got a lot to say,
So don’t act like everything’s okay…
Coz’ I know you’re hurt…
And I’ll pick you up,
And I’ll dust you off…
So you can spread your wings,
You then take flight,
Back into the clouds, where angels sing,
Where they sing for you...
For you, it’s for you.

For you…





@LGAE: "Down (So Far Gone)"
Right now I feel so down...
What am I supposed to do?
Right now I feel so so down...
I hope something happens soon.

'Coz I'm so far gone,
A'miles away, from you babe.
I am always missing you.
Now I wrote this song,
Day by day, for you babe.
I am always missing you.

But...

I can't say that I never woulda' lied to you.
I can't say that whether or not our love was true.
And right now I feel so down.
Right now I feel so damn down.
I really don't know what I'm supposed to do.
I really don't know how to live without you.
And right now I feel so down.
Right now I feel so damn down.

I'm throwing up my hands,
I'm laying down my head...
I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
It's so much that I can't see,
Getting down on my knees...
I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

'Coz I'm so damn down,
I'm so caught up...
And I'm so far gone,
Yet I'm still here...

And...

I can't say that I never woulda' lied to you.
I can't say that whether or not our love was true.
And right now I feel so down.
Right now I feel so damn down.
I really don't know what I'm supposed to do.
I really don't know how to live without you.
And right now I feel so down.
Right now I feel so damn down.

I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
I'm sorry.





@LGAE: "Don't Ever Go"
Sing me a lullaby, ‘coz,
I can’t seem to shut my eyes…
Rock me oh-so gently, ‘coz,
‘Coz…
‘Coz I don’t want you to go!

(MUSIC HITS)

Don’t leave me alone,
I don’t want to be without you. (without you)
Stay by my side here,
You may not see it but it’s true. (I love you)

Oh, you can’t go just yet,
I know we just met,
But I want you to stay here.
Oh, you don’t have to talk,
We can just take a walk.
I don’t want you to leave here.

From every feeling you set free,
To every word that you tell me.
You open up my eyes to the world,
And all the things I want to be,
All he places I want to see.
You take me through all my dreams…

(MUSIC BREAK)

[quietly]
Sing me a lullaby…
Rock me oh-so gently…

[voice raises]
‘Coz I don’t want you to go!
Please don’t go!
Don’t leave me alone!
I need you here!

Oh, you can’t go just yet,
I know we just met,
But I want you to stay here.
Oh, you don’t have to talk,
We can just take a walk.
I don’t want you to leave here.
Oh, you can’t go just yet,
I know we just met,
But I want you to stay here.
Oh, you don’t have to talk,
We can just take a walk.
I don’t want you to leave here.

(MUSIC STOPS)

[softly]
You can’t go just yet…





@LGAE: "When Your Heart Stops Beating"
My hands feel cold,
Oh what has become of me.
The strings you hold,
No longer control me.

Deep inside I feel no pain,
In the sky I see no rain.
Tell me why I feel insane…
In my heart there is no pulse,
All the friends I’ll miss the most.
Tell me why I feel so sane.
And from my fears I’m retreating,
Because that is what it’s like,
When your heart stops beating…

When the lights go out in the moonlit sky,
I see no stars and I want to cry.
Each time I wake is another ache,
But I can’t get up for how hard I try.
Then the questions fade and answers lie,
When you’re feeling trapped and want to fly.
Each time at stake is another mistake,
But I can’t cheer up for how hard I try.

Deep inside I feel no pain,
In the sky I see no rain.
Tell me why I feel insane…
In my heart there is no pulse,
All the friends I’ll miss the most.
Tell me why I feel so sane.
And from my fears I’m retreating,
Because that is what it’s like,
When your heart stops beating…

(MUSIC BREAK)

[softly & music fade]
Deep inside I feel no pain,
In the sky I see no rain.
Tell me why I feel insane…
In my heart there is no pulse,
All the friends I’ll miss the most.
Tell me why I feel so sane.
And from my fears I’m retreating,
Because that is what it’s like,
When your heart stops beating…





@LGAE: "Fragile Wine Glass"
"FRAGILE WINE GLASS"
PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS BROKEN
@LGAE ©2010

In a fragile world, there's all but hope,
And you try to hang on, to learn the ropes,
We'll slit our hands over a wine glass,
We will drip it down, and drink it first class.
Blood and life is the refinement of our hearts.
We'll take this knife and do our parts.

Life is a fragile wine glass,
If it falls it will break...
Life is a fragile wine glass,
It will shatter,
And each piece will take its own path.
If it separates, no tears will fall,
If it falls apart no strangers call,
Because life is not but...
A fragile wine glass...

The refinement, the transfer of life,
The sensitive track of one's mind.
Each lip of four strangers,
Will wait in line.
Each lip of four strangers,
Will taste this wine.
So gather around,
Take a quick sip.
Lick off the flavor from your top lip.
Try not to smile though...
Because it's not over yet...

Life is a fragile wine glass,
If it falls it will break...
Life is a fragile wine glass,
It will shatter,
And each piece will take its own path.
If it separates, no tears will fall,
If it falls apart no strangers call,
Because life is not but...
A fragile wine glass...

Four filled with life, tears rolling down,
No one sits quiet, we keep making sounds.
Get up, dance a little,
Shake off your day.
Try to forget all the prices you pay.
For living life happily,
For living soundly...
Keep sipping this wine down,
Keep sipping this wine down...
Each time it touches your lips,
You can feel time rip,
And you become lost in space...

Life is a fragile wine glass,
If it falls it will break...
Life is a fragile wine glass,
It will shatter,
And each piece will take its own path.
If it separates, no tears will fall,
If it falls apart no strangers call,
Because life is not but...
A fragile wine glass...
Life is a fragile wine glass,
If it falls it will break...
Life is a fragile wine glass,
It will shatter,
And each piece will take its own path.
If it separates, no tears will fall,
If it falls apart no strangers call,
Because life is not but...
A fragile wine glass...

Sipping till it's all gone,
Don't feel like you're just one.
In the battles you have won...
Suddenly the noise is broken,
By the shattering sound of glass.
Suddenly the poison broke in,
Into our veins and our bones.
One-by-one we fall to our knees,
Four strangers with nothing but pleas.
Keep us here, keep us alive,
Leave no fear, and we might survive.
But scared, we were, of death,
To part...
Overcome by this we all fall apart.
Drift away in a sea of red,
So far apart...
As each one said...

BACKGROUND INFO:
This song actually, though it includes drinking alcohol, depicts my disapproval of it. It expresses that they started drinking, then drank so much they got alcohol poisoning and all died from it, losing each other forever. It was me saying how alcohol can tear people apart. Like it did my old ALGAE band :C
