Love

Love lost it's meaning
I don't know this feeling
It's broken and battered
My heart's been shattered
What happened to rainbows?
Is this how it goes?
My skies lost their stars
Can't see past these scars
What happened to dancing on clouds?
Everything that allows
The butterflies to fly?
Bats now have come to reside
I can't see past the rain
This love so full of pain
Not what I dreamed of in dreams
Of how love always seemed

Leave

You bruise and scrape
Have an ability to hate
But these I leave behind
Go forth to free my mind
Of the hold you have
You take this sad
For you get to keep it
With you I leave it
I get to go on
I get a new dawn
These things I leave behind
These words for you to remind
Of how you had a hold
Of how you can stay cold

Now

Too many what ifs
This isn't how one lives
Regretting the past
Thinking everything went too fast
Go back a few years
Maybe avoid all the tears
But where would I be now?
Still questioning why and how?
 It's life's lessons
Endless sessions
Of what not to do
Of how we couldn't stay true
But that was yesterday
I knew it could never stay
Live today for the now
Learn to stop questioning why and how

Dawn

Haven't been sleeping
Reality comes creeping
Too dark tonight
Too dark to fight
There's no moon
It all came too soon
To handle the shadows
The truth that follows
All the silence brings
I want the birds to sing
Sing that new song
To bring a new dawn
