Verse 1
It was an afternoon meant for goodbyes.
But then I met you and you took me by surprise.
You played off my words, finished my sentences.
You read my mind the first time we met.
Trust a friend to tell a friend, what a girl feels.
The way you made me feel was so unreal.
The smiles and butterflies never went away.
I’m still fighting them up until this day.
Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.
Verse 2
Yet another story ending, I came across you.
Amongst a crowd of strangers, I saw through.
Nudges, gentle shoves, flirty eyes and big smiles.
You made everything seem worth while.
Every moment spent was unforgettable.
Hand around my waist, back against your chest.
If I could look into your eyes once more,
I’d never let you slip away like before.
Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.
Bridge
The goodbye is the hardest to forget.
But I’d go back and do it all over again.
So sit me back on that swing and hold me tight.
Share your world with me under the moonlight.
Search for my weaknesses and fill my empty.
Maybe one day there’ll be a you and me.
Chorus
But the story never goes the way I want it.
The ending’s never a happily ever after.
I wish none of us were leaving, and we’d stay.
So we could just remain the same, this way.
Work in Progress.
Heyy.
- Lara.
- Writing helps me relieve stress.
Go ahead and judge my writing skills, not what I write about.

Ruined.
Your last words ring as you step away.
Dead silence but we have so much more to say.
You turn around, just to see how I'm doing.
You know you've left me stranded, cold and ruined.
Every second alone is another breath I don't want to take.
Without you, there's no point of living.
So bury me if I must live a solitary life.
I'd rather be burnt in the sun, than hide.
My nights are hostile without your touch.
I crawl in bed and sing to myself, all the sleepless nights.
I'd rather be held than be holdong onto your worn out thread.
It's either me in your arms, or me dead.

Dragged On.
We speak so formal, it's like we're from different worlds.
A world of your own, that not even I can catch a glimpse at.
Where did we go, I thought we were heading for eternity.
Seems like we're free falling out of what we used to be.
We're not meant to be, even the blind can see that.
You and I never had sparks to begin with.
We rushed in and I gave you the chance to back out.
But now it's been too long, we've dragged on.
I've got no choice but to leave you, the guilt is killing me.
I'm not holding us on the line just for my own peace of mind.
I've been selfish enough and I need to let you go.
No point begging me to stay, I'm running away.
It's for your own good, please take my word once more.
Drop my hands and let me be on my own.
I can't apologize anymore than I have already.
The tracks have changed around, no more going steady.
I can't tell if I'll feel more remorse now or later.
Baby, I regret not treating you like I should have.
Even now, at the lowest state, though it's hard to admit,
I should've treated you better... you deserve more than me.
I've got no choice but to leave you, the guilt is killing me.

Tears drain my sorrows.
The tingle against my skin.
Cleanse my pain and hurt.
The tingle against my skin.
Cleanse my pain and hurt.
Life Can Get Very Confusing.
L ies and hatred fill the air
I nnocence you once thought existed
F aded away into the darkness
E verything is wrong, you were tricked
C ircles or squares, which to pick
A nother disaster is awaiting you
N one of these were expected
G ood appears out of no where
E specially through rough times
T rying to show you to keep your head held high
V iscous but gentle life can be
E ven through dark, the light can be seen
R ight from wrong, no one knows
Y ou just have to learn from your mistakes
C orrections could be wrong
O n the right track you go
N ot knowing what's ahead
F ollowing mistakes made before
U nkown awaits you
S oon you reach a dead end
I n need of saving, you cry
N ot noticing the light shining on you
G one or here, you're confused.

Couple weeks back.
Been here for almost an hour.
Waiting for you to come out at day break.
When all the secrets unfold.
The time your deepest feelings are told.
I long to hear your voice and see you.
Just want to hear those words.
And see that smile take over your face.
My remedy for fears that need to be replaced.
So walk on out, come on over.
Kidnap me like you’ve done to my heart.
His lips, his taste, nothing compared to yours.
Seeing you with her is the hardest part.
When you call me, I hear you sing.
Your sound in my head forever lingering.
But hearing about how you love her.
You’ve torn me apart, we’re a beautiful disaster.
Still I wait for you to open your eyes and see.
That it’s time to realize, we’re meant to be.
So pull me closer and hold me tight.
Cuz you’re the one I dream of every night.
So walk on out, come on over.
Kidnap me like you’ve done to my heart.
His lips, his taste, nothing compared to yours.
Seeing you with her tears me apart.
