A christmas song


A Christmas Goodbye

There were nights, when the snow came down
I could stare out the window and see
Tomorrow would be such a wonderful day
And the hope that will wake up with me

When I think of the year that's gone by
All the time we spent for one day of the year
Why can't it last on through the days
When the snow is gone and I can't find the cheer

Chorus
So this looks like a christmas goodbye
As there were no sounds from the town, tonight
When the new year comes and we will forget
And we'll say it once more, a christmas goodbye

Some of us think of the friends that we have
And the family that comes together this time
And that chair that's at the table each year
Empty from someone we lost over time

The joy that we bring, in the hardest of times
And the sounds of laughter filled the air
Some days are better, as the years go by
But that one time of year that makes us care

Chorus
So this looks like a christmas goodbye
As there were no sounds from the town, tonight
When the new year comes and we will forget
And we'll say it once more, a christmas goodbye

latest song


Keep It The Same

She was this girl I just met
She could run through thousand lines
I couldn't just use my old games
Cause none could work this time

She was not the one for me
But she's a friend, like nobody else
Maybe it's crazy to think about
But she'll be there like nobody else

So many times I just don't have a clue
And she'll always know just what to do

Chorus
I can't find a reason why anymore
It can't be more then it already is
And it's ok to keep things the same
Cause there's nothin quite like this

She's not like anybody I've ever known
Somethin in the way she smiles at me
It's not anything that I've ever seen
It caught me where I wanted to be

So she's still gonna be who she is
At the end of the day, she won't change
Something that I've never seen before
And somethin that I'll never see again

So many times I just don't have a clue
And she'll always know just what to do

Chorus
I can't find a reason why anymore
It can't be more then it already is
And it's ok to keep things the same
Cause there's nothin quite like this

for those who have lost there lives, needlessly


The Price They Paid

Life's too cruel, with decisions made
A thousand chances to say no, but he said yes
The road from so long ago, he's gone off
And the youngest went to an undying rest

It's one that no one can wake up from
They're gone over what can't be undone
There's no words to say the pain inside
And they'll never wake up to see the sun

Chorus
Everything I know, broken just like that
I don't know why this mistake was made
Tears were cried but it's just so hard
When you know about the price they paid

Chances are he didn't think about it
But when someone goes so wrong, what's wrong
We can live and let die but no reason why
If only we could take it away but they're gone

There's nothing that comes close to this
When one life goes, it's hard enough
But so many people, so many people
Will find the good life up above

Broken dreams, endless screams to fill the night
And never again will they be held so close

Chorus
Everything I know, broken just like that
I don't know why this mistake was made
Tears were cried but it's just so hard
When you know about the price they paid

4am songs, for the win


Still In The Dark (With Me)

We, have lost the strength to fight
The will to carry on, this time
I've seen it before, again and again
And like before, it's taken a life

So why, why does this feelin take over
Why, does the will to fight go cold
When it's darker then ever before
It feels like age is making us old

There are some that are young at heart
And age doesn't hold them anymore

Chorus
And I'm standin up, for the first time
This feelin takes a hold on me
The darkness lifts, the lights come on
And I can finally take a look and see
That you were still in the dark, with me

It feels like everyday was in the rain
Cause it's lonely on the road to love
Some people hit a dead end, all the time
And some people think it's never enough

But you know there's still somethin there
Maybe it's just a dream, but it's there
And hope might be more then I could ask
But hope is all that we have to share

Sometimes getting down on ourselves
Doesn't change the way our lives have been

Chorus
And I'm standin up, for the first time
This feelin takes a hold on me
The darkness lifts, the lights come on
And I can finally take a look and see
That you were still in the dark, with me

Years run by, memories stay with us
The good times are gone, but they live on
There's still more to see, and more to do
One day it's here and the next it's gone

Chorus
And I'm standin up, for the first time
This feelin takes a hold on me
The darkness lifts, the lights come on
And I can finally take a look and see
That you were still in the dark, with me

i wrote a new song. have a look


My Own Hands

This story's been told a thousand times
About a love that started out right
But the little things in this world
Turned it to something that was so wrong

Words we should never have said
Came out like it was just another word
But they got in the way, we can't forget
You warned me, and I lost you to this world

Chorus
Now I can't believe that you're gone
I never thought the day would come to me
And I only thought of myself, all the time
My eyes were closed, I could not see
That my world was broken by my own hands

I let go of the love we had, in my pain
You weren't to blame, but I could not see
And now pride stops me from sayin I'm wrong
I'm afraid you'll find someone better then me

We should never have listened to what they say
Some don't like you and some don't like me
Jealousy ran through the friends we shared
And it just got the best of you and me

Chorus
Now I can't believe that you're gone
I never thought the day would come to me
And I only thought of myself, all the time
My eyes were closed, I could not see
That my world was broken by my own hands

I just want you back, I just can't let go
Maybe you can move on but I'm lost in the past
I wish you were here, I wish you were here
But these days, love just doesn't seem to last
What more can I do, what more can I say
We've broken apart, because of yesterdays

Chorus
Now I can't believe that you're gone
I never thought the day would come to me
And I only thought of myself, all the time
My eyes were closed, I could not see
That my world was broken by my own hands

new song...ummm...insert title here


Try To Smile

We've lost friends, along the way
We've made a few mistakes, these days
It's wishful thinkin, wantin to go back
Cause this is just the way it is

You fell off, the road you took
It started fine, but it went down fast
And now, maybe it's time to give up
But it happens, it might not last
But you know there's still a few left
Who will miss you when you're gone

Chorus
There's not many good things, these days
You can only see the dark, not the light
It's not the end of the world, anytime soon
Just remember you've got to try to smile

I know it's hard, when your friends are gone
But it's one man, it's one woman gone
You'll miss em now but there still around
Just take a look, they're not hard to find

Maybe it's wrong to find a new way
But just cause there gone, it's not the end
There's still so much to do with this
Don't give up over a few little things again
And you know you mean a lot to everyone
If you go away, we won't know what to do

Chorus
There's not many good things, these days
You can only see the dark, not the light
It's not the end of the world, anytime soon
Just remember you've got to try to smile

Well we all wish everything would be fine
But sometimes it just doesn't go our way
There's still time to have a little fun
There's no need to give up, anytime today

Chorus
There's not many good things, these days
You can only see the dark, not the light
It's not the end of the world, anytime soon
Just remember you've got to try to smile
