[[My iPod is playing these songs over. and. over. again.
And I'm hoping that in a few hours, I can be healed a little more
because right now, I'm hurting pretty badly.
My arm kills this morning and it hurt last night. I forgot how red it can get and how sharp it can feel.
I need to tell someone these things. I need someone to tell me everything will be alright for more than a night.
I need to sing these songs to someone. I need someone to sing these songs to me.]]


you and me will be lying side by side forever, forever
underneath this adolescent sky
together, together
and you will hold my heart inside your hand
and you'll be the one, the one to tell me
"oh, we've got a long, long way to go
to get there, we'll get there..
but oh, if there's one thing that we know
it's that we will not grow old"
[We Will Not Grow Old: Lenka]

you'll be the one that I’ll love forever more
ill be here holding you high above it all
but don’t let me fall
[Don't Let Me Fall: Lenka]

sittin’ here on this lonely dock
watch the rain play on the ocean top
all the things i feel i need to say
i can’t explain in any other way
i need to be bold
need to jump in the cold water
need to grow older with a girl like you
finally see you were naturally
the one to make it so easy when you showed me the truth
yeah, yeah i’d rather be with you
say you want the same thing too
[I'd Rather Be With You: Joshua Radin]

oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my toes
i, i, i will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'til we fall asleep tonight
[Sky: Joshua Radin]

i remember when i saw your face the time and place
my left hand could trace the entire night
you looked like the sun & i was the only one who could stare
until you're done shining on me
and as i drank my wine and let the world fade away
the sunrise tried to end it while we tried to stay
the rest of my life can't compare to this night
