Through my life problems
I have turned out ok
Through different choices in life
I have chosen a way
Through broken friendships
I have made new friends
Through tough relationships
I have found that time mends
Through arguments with family
Later it seems that everything is alright
Through long distance friends
Talked to wee hours of the night
With all the things I've been through
Life now seems ok
And with new obstacles
I will survive another day

Sit and stare
At your reflection for a while
Maybe your eyes are too far apart
Or you have a crooked smile
Maybe your ears stick out
Or you have a pimple on your chin
Your nose may be too fat
Maybe I should go see a surgeon
Or how about not
And except yourself for you
Your imperfections are what make yourself
Nothing surgery could do
So next time looking in the mirror
And you think something is wrong on your face
Just remember this is you
And everything is in its right place

Do you ever just wanna stop
And start all over again
Meet the perfect guy
And have a relationship that will never end
Do you ever just wanna close your eyes
And remember the happier times you keep
Just lying there in deep thought
And slowly cry yourself to sleep

If your ever with a loved one
Please cherish the time you have
You never know if and when
They just might be taken
If you love something
Please do it if it makes
You happy
Never do something that
You don't wanna do
Who really cares
What people think
If your happy with it then do it
The only thing holding you
Back is you never forget that
If you love someone please
Tell them because you may never
Get a second chance to do so
You will never really know
Anything until you try it
Live everyday like you might
Not see tomorrow
Never take anything back
Mistakes are meant to be made
So then we can learn from them
Always live by your own rules
And standards because after all
There is only one you

Today you left me
We parted ways and said goodbye
I'm left trying to get on with life
Sitting here and beginning to cry
I don't think I'll ever know
Just why you went away
Why couldn't I be in your life anymore
So many thoughts I'd like to say
When you were here life was perfect
And I thought this is the best it will ever be
I just wish that back then
I knew not everything is what it seems
And when you left you took my heart
That sadly I trusted with you
Even though I'm sad now
I'm really missing you

How will I sleep
Knowing this is when
I would talk to you
And now there is nothing to do
When I sit on the couch
Will it feel weird to lean into nothing
Or lay down and not feel you around me
If a cold wind breezes by
I'll remember this is when you
Would hug me extra tight
It will feel weird
Not having someone's hand
To hold as I now walk alone
There will be no more whispers
Of your sweet voice telling me
How much you love me
Instead it is now silent
No more of your smiles
Or your laugh that made my day
And now if someone laughs
Like you do
I get chills
And now I'm left
With only memories and pictures
Nothing close to the real thing
Hopefully one day
I no longer will have to remember

It hurts a lot we're no longer together
And now it seems like the biggest mistake of my life
Was letting you go
I miss you a lot
A lot more than I wish I had too
Sometimes I cry because I no longer have you
And I cry because I know I'll never get you back
I'd give anything to go back in time
Change things and the mistakes I made
In hopes that by doing that
Everything would be fine between us
And we'd still be together
But you can't do that
You can't change your past
Sometimes I just wanna run to your house
And tell you that I miss and love you so much
And the biggest mistake of my life was letting you go
But I can't
In the end I think this is right
Even though it's so hard to say no to someone I love
I have to say goodbye to us
And in the end I hope it's a goodbye
That doesn't last forever.

What do you do
When your in love with a friend
But you don't have the nerve to tell them
What do you do
When you lose a friend
And you cant get them back
Because they're already to far away
What do you do
When you lost someone forever
And you'd give anything to get them back
Even if it were for a few minutes
What do you do
When you realize everything your wondering about
You should be doing
Because who knows if you'll get the chance
To ever do it again

I want you more than ever now
even though I know I will never get you back
I know that if I cried a thousand tears
I still wouldn't get any closer to being with you
Days and nights I wish to go back in time
To relive moments lost
The time I should of cherished
Now knowing that it would all be memories
Memories that hurt to think about
I know someday someone will come along
May not be as terrific as you were
But maybe better
I like to think that in time you'll come back
Even if you won't
It helps me sleep to think like that
To be happy again
People cant see how much I hurt
They don't understand the pain I'm in
I guess it was better to love and lose you
Than to never feel that feeling again
Who knows maybe one day you'll wake up And realize what you lost now that I'm gone
And who knows
Maybe one day I'll wake up
And feel strong and move on
Then at night I wouldn't have to think of you
To be happy and fall asleep
