Save Her - For Tonite

All we need is a helping hand
Even when your heart can't withstand
The truth lays outside this battle
And the strain awaits full throttle

Please save her
Please save her
For she's crying out to me
And I'm crying to God

Your coaster's riding downward
And, oh, God, I'm glad I found her
Cause you can find this heart
Before it tears you apart

Please save her
Please save her
For she's crying out to me
And I'm crying out to God

Take us back to the way we see
Even if this brings us to our knees
At the break of a song
This is where we are strong
And if the breaks in me can't deceive
This is where we'll all escape

So please save her
And please save her
For she's crying out to me
And I'm crying out to God

Silhouettes - Swimming with Dolphins

I know you won't admit this
I am just a silhouette to you
You found comfort with my distance
But you never let me stray out of your view

Who really needs the past
With the allure of something new?
So we split apart at last
Went back to places that I knew
Before you

And you never have to see
The light that wraps itself around me
And I never have to know
The faces there
The places you go
That you go

When I counter the resistance
I bend in shapes in ways I never knew
So I'll try to post from my existence
Yeah I'll stop or start my heart if you ask me to
I'll stop my heart and then I'll wait for you

I was sure I never would be sure we were in love
Although it's dark and black
I am sure I never would be sure of love to come
There is one thing left to hold on to
After you

And you never have to see
The light that wraps itself around me
And I never have to know
The faces there
The places you go
That you go

Alien Ocean

I sit here alone
Watching the world go by
Rain's falling down
Drops to my hands
And I look to the sky

Father, hear my cry
I don't belong here
Do I?
The world is turning
Oh, so slowly
And I want to die
Father
Hear my cry

Make It Home [Song Version]

Why so far away?
I thought you said you loved me
Do we know love?
So young, so unconscious
I, so fragile
You, so brittle
Wrap your head
Around this riddle

Here you are, my darling dear
Take the heart you didn't steal
Unconsciously torn from my chest
This shattered heart will never rest
My broken wings will someday soar
Slowly lifted off the floor
But as for now, I stronger grow
Until I can boldly go
I'll make it home
I'll make it home

If you want my heart
To have, to hold
To truly treasure
Call back to me
I'll run to you
With sparkling eyes
I, so thinking
You, so feeling
Misinterpret
Hidden meanings

Here you are, my darling dear
Take the heart you didn't steal
Unconsciously torn from my chest
This shattered heart will never rest
My broken wings will someday soar
Slowly lifted off the floor
But as for now, I'll stronger grow
Until I can boldly go
I'll make it home
I'll make it home

If you only want
A single breath
Let me go
Leave me, love
You don't understand
You're not a man
My heart is mine
Til you decide
But take your time

Here you are, my darling dear
Take the heart you didn't steal
Unconsciously torn from my chest
This shattered heart will never rest
My broken wings will someday soar
Slowly lifted off the floor
But as for now, I'll stronger grow
Until I can boldly go
I'll make it home
I'll make it home

Now and forever, boy
Or for now and never, boy
Which will it be?
Which will it be?

Which Will It Be, Boy? [Poem Version]

Why so far away?
I thought you said
You loved me
But really
Do we know love?
So young, So...
unknowing
I, unstable
You, unconscious
Of what you do to me
Make me feel things
Make me think things
I don't know why
I can't explain it
I don't want to
I, so thinking
You, so feeling
Saying only what you mean
And I misinterpret
Everything
Overreacting at the slightest sign
Of rejection
For affection

I'm done feeling broken
I'm done over thinking

Here you are, my darling dear
Have the piece of my heart
You didn't mean to steal
If you truly want it
To have and to hold
To treasure forever
Call back to me
And I'll return
I'll run to you
And I'll race your heart to the finish line
Where I see you waiting for me

But if only you crave
A single breathe of me
Exhale
Let me go
Leave me, my love
You truly don't
understand
You are then not worthy
Of such a prize as this
My heart
is mine!
Til you decide
But take your time

Which will it be?

Now and forever
or
For now and never
