So what if I'll never be perfect? For so long I wondered what that meant. Now I can see there is no such thing And I can accept that with a smile So what if I'll never be whole? You have given me strength enough To pull myself together Tired of running I’ll let you catch me And your heart raced To keep pace with mine x2 So what if I'll never find love? I know now that's not true For so long I ran from the past And without it now I would be lost Tired of waiting For life to catch me I decided to pursue it for myself When I caught up It wore a face that I had never seen before It was a stranger At first sight But a face that I came to love So what if I'll never be perfect? For so long I wondered what that meant. Now I can see there is no such thing And I can accept that with a smile So what if I'll never be whole? You have given me strength enough To pull myself together So what have you done With this chill in my heart? The best warm-up I ever had The sun feels much brighter now for it Warming light on the warmest hearts

Touch 04:05
You were crying And the rain mixed with your tears A bright light dying A kinder heart never to be broken A short reach across the table Just as far as oceans span the sea It's just as hard to reach you As for you to reach for me This pleasant scent Undeserving in such a setting French vanilla mixed with you You and it are much alike You both needed more than me What have I become? A crumbling person And soon a shaking voice From the other side of the world What have I done? Understand, I don't do this out of spite Or I do this in spite of myself A fleeting moment is the hardest to catch And they always seem to get away Two children, you called us But adults at play Perhaps that's true And none of this is Like so much steam Rising from a rainy street To vanish, like myself Into the sky Let us depart now Full of silent regrets And promises I never meant For you to keep But know that I never lied I only wanted to keep you If I could see you I wouldn't want to see tears on your face So please, hold your head up And look me in the eye A parting's always harder if you can't even face "goodbye."

Thief 02:12
You thief. Maybe these moments Weren't much to you But they were all I had And maybe I took them for granted But now your sticky fingers Have snatched them away And now they're glued to hers And such soft hands... Always meant to read And never hold. But I don't mind. I don't matter. A rooftop deathbed is all that I deserve Perhaps it's for the better Perhaps you're for the better You thief. Come and steal Affections, rejections I have no objections! What I have... Doesn't matter. You thief. Come and steal Her first time Yours and mine Let us share... More than just you Ever wanted to give And all I could never take I don't mind. I don't matter. But I'm not bitter. And I'm not upset. And I'm definitely not crying. Oh wait... You thief. Come and steal My life from me I’d give it away If only someone would take it You thief.

Away 02:14
Absence makes the heart grow stronger I should be unbreakable now I should be unshakable now Hold me close and turn away Face away Stay away I've had no sleep for days This bed suddenly feels empty It's one A.M. And I can't stay asleep I'm too tired of waiting for you It's two A.M. I haven't changed at all I'm still waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call I just want to hear your voice Say anything It's three A.M. The night will soon leave too Slip away Without a second thought To who gets left behind But it's nothing unheard of And surely it’s deserved I'd leave me too If I had any courage at all I might be stronger soon Two hands on a clock Can't keep up with each other Just run away In endless circles I'm running out of time I might be stronger now Out of sight Out of mind In time you'll just forget me And I will forget myself Absence makes the heart grow stronger Absence makes the heart grow fonder Soon I'll be strong enough Soon I will love you enough To leave you I might be stronger now I might be stronger now
