your head is bigger than this earth
you have more facts in your brain
than i think exist
I fell in love with your mouth
it never stopped moving, I just sat there and smiled
and I just looked at you
I just looked at you
i like to look at you
I can fit inside a box
and I'm afraid of getting lost
and so from the world I hide
i cut a hole in the side of the box
so i can look at you
so i can look at you
I just look at you
I am thinner than your wrist
I'm overflowing with dirt
i hope to grow to be a dandelion one day
so I can grant your wishes someday
and I look at you
I just look at you
I like lookin' at you ooooo

i met u on the school bus
it was yellow and february
i drew your face the window
and you stole my hat
and sometimes at night i forget what you feel like
so when the birds say it's morning i didn't sleep
your thoughts are stuck under my fingernails
when i am with you my knees grow weak
and I'll spend the summer trying to not think of you
but I'm already knee-deep
in all that you do
I'm already knee-deep
in you :)

you fell asleep in the back of my car
you braided my hair on the beach
i drew a trampoline on your hand
so you jumped, you jumped
you always said my eyes looked like a planetarium
lately they've been more like an aquarium
i pour the water down my shirt
to wake up, to wake up,
to wake up, to wake up.
even i admit you've changed
but i seem to love you just the same
is it really over?

lifeline

daydreams melt into reality
not sure which one he lives in
he says "i love you"
but then I open up my eyes to realize
it was just the trees in the wind
summer is near, I can taste it
do you remember last year
we watched the moon set in the morning
and let all of our fears to dry
his hands are slipping from mine
my teeth are slipping from this lifeline
the ground is spinning beneath my feet
and I'm falling behind
my eyes have gone blurry
in just my mere 16 years of age
i have seen more than my skin shouts
and now you've gone away
his hands are slipping from mine
my teeth are slipping from this lifeline
the ground is spinning beneath my feet
and I'm falling behind
his hands are slipping from mine
my teeth are slipping from this lifeline
the ground is spinning beneath my feet
and I'm falling behind
pay me no attention,
I'll be fine

reminders

lights hanging on the tree
remind me
of all the pretty things im lucky to see
with my eyes
leaves swaying from the branch
remind me of the time we danced
and of all the friends that hold to my hands
and how lucky i am to have met them
the fall reminds me how
nothing warm can stay all year round
but from the ashes and the dirt
comes something as pure as before
two ants remind me of
how small we are from above
and if you and i are just made of dust
why does it feel like you matter so much?
the night is quiet
it soothes all your pain
with it's silent name
the sound
holds you close
as i sing the final note
