Ticking away
Illusions clouding with gray
Masking the desires within
Every day another sin.
games
Unnoticed
StandardThe secret looks
Stolen kisses
In hidden nooks
Tucked away wishes
The passion soars
Out of focus
My hopes stored
Unnoticed.
Bound
Standard
Many hearts are caught in this game we’ve played
But tonight, that will all change.
The second-hand ticks-ticks away
But the minutes take hours, the hours take days.
When I see you tonight, when we meet face to face
How will you be feeling, what will you say?
Will your eyes dance like a pair of flames, or will their light fade away?
Our hearts linger, together, in the shade
Intertwined by the sins we’ve made
And I know things cannot continue this way
But as night slowly follows day
I wonder which heart is bound to break.
And So I Smile
StandardMy heart is breaking away
I feel my ribcage shrinking up
Your name is sweet ans sour on my tongue
And I’m losing faith in this word called love
{Chorus}
And so I smile
To cover up the pain
And so I smile
And tuck my emotions away
And so I smile
Even when I don’t want to
I smile so you won’t see the truth
I’m getting sick of these games
I never really liked them any way
And why am I so confused
When you seem to find this so amusing?
I was tired from the start
Now I’m just worn-out
And I’m losing
{Chorus}
And so I smile
To cover up the pain
And so I smile
And tuck my emotions away
And so I smile
Even when I don’t want to
I smile so you won’t see the truth
So what if I’m falling apart inside
So what if I have the urge to cry
So what if my heart is breaking
It don’t mean a thing…
So what if your lack of affection
Is eating at my emotions
So what if I have always wanted this
You don’t seem to give a shit
{Chorus}
And so I smile
To cover up the pain
And so I smile
And tuck my emotions away
And so I smile
Even when I don’t want to
I smile so you won’t see the truth
And so I smile
To cover up this frown
And so I smile
So you’ll turn away
And so I smile
Even when I don’t want to
I smile so you won’t se e the truth
Games
StandardI can’t play these games any more
Let’s face. It you’ve got the higher score
I just want to turn in my piece
Take the dice because I’m taking my leave
(Chorus)
I’m done with the games
You’ve forced me to play
Done with the pain
I’ve gathered along the way
Done with the stress the mess in my brain
I’m done with the games
I’m not going to sit here and wait
For you to make your move
I’m not going to sit back and watch
Myself lose
To you
You made these rules
Let’s be honest I never had a chance
(Chorus)
I’m done with the games
You’ve forced me to play
Done with the pain
I’ve gathered along the way
Done with the stress the mess in my brain
I’m done with the games
I’ve had enough
I can’t take any more
I just wanted your love
You only wanted to score
(Chorus)x2
I’m done with the games
You’ve forced me to play
Done with the pain
I’ve gathered along the way
Done with the stress the mess in my brain
Done with the games
I can’t play these games any more
Was your heart really too much to ask for?
Waiting War
Standardwaiting, waiting
all day by the phone
waiting, waiting
for the sound of my ring-tone
waiting, waiting
and it’s killing me
waiting, waiting
eating at my brain
waiting, waiting
and it’s stressing me out
waiting, waiting
I want to scream out
waiting, waiting
starring at the screen
waiting, waiting
for your name to pop up on my hand-held machine
waiting, waiting
until I feel I can’t no more
waiting, waiting
Still, a slave to this war.
