Soar

Like music to my ears I hear the slam of volleyballs echoing through the room.
It’s so nostalgic but it all ends when i finally make eye contact with you.
Forgetting all my happiness, I’m not sure what I’m going to do.
All I know is that you’re amazing and I feel like I have something to prove.
Look at my talent, look how I soar.
Please, let me show you something more
I promise I won’t fall, Watch what I can do.
There’s more talent here I’ve gotta show you.
It’s make or break it, one chance to be top.
I want to show you I’m cream of the crop.
I want to show you I’m the best at what I do.
I want to jump high and spike balls with you.
Looking over the wall I can’t see but I trust you with the enemy.
Shutting my eyes, I believe in you just as long as you send your set to me.
You’ll be the setter, I’ll be the spiker. Let’s show them what real teamwork can be.
Run then jump, surprise the others. Close my eyes, hit your set and breathe.
Look at my talent, look how I soar.
Please, let me show you something more.
I promise I won’t fall, Watch what I can do.
There’s more talent here I’ve gotta show you.
It’s make or break it, one chance to be top.
I want to show you I’m cream of the crop.
I want to show you I’m the best at what I do.
I want to jump high and spike balls with you.

Alien

Here it goes again and I can’t defend
These thoughts I just can’t comprehend
It’s so strange to me; just a fantasy.
I’ll let our stable friendship be.
But I can’t forget that when I set
I remember when we first met:
Alien at best, for I confess
You meant a lot more than the rest.
(Here it goes...
But I can't forget...
And I can't defend...
Here it goes again… )
We’re together for one another
And for each other
Everything seems
So much better when I’m your setter
And when your bitter.
‘Cause when you’re mean I
Fill with laughter. I’m what you’re after.
You’re all that matters.
All I’m saying is:
We’re together for one another
And for each other.
Am I dreaming this? Something is amiss
As if I’ve taken a big risk.
But here we are best friends by far
Unless I wish on a star
And an alien hears then it comes near
And does away all of my fear.
I step to you, you have no clue
what I’m about to say to you.
We’re together for one another
And for each other
Everything seems
So much better when I’m your setter
And when your bitter.
‘Cause when you’re mean I
Fill with laughter. I’m what you’re after.
You’re all that matters.
All I’m saying is:
We’re together for one another
And for each other.

Go

(I'll go...)
(I'll do just as he wants me to...)
Maybe I'm not worried at all
Though there's a good chance that I'd fall.
Surely I'm not worried at all.
Convince myself it'll always be this way.
I'm pretending the best I can,
Faking the way I am.
I'm hiding the best that I can.
They're figuring it out. What do I say?
I'm afraid who can tell.
Who knows me too well?
Is it as clear as a bell?
Does he know it well?
Is it that hard to hide?
I can say that I've tried.
I've been trying to get by
But I don't like to lie.
I'll do just what he wants me to:
I'll go. I'll go.
You've got better things to do
I know, I know.
He doesn't have to be paranoid
I know that you're his boy.
I'll do just what he wants me to:
I'll go. I'll go.
Why doesn't this feel like home?
Haven't felt like this in so long.
Am I really that lost on my own?
Just forget it. It's normal for me.
I am standing on my toes
Worried I'll sing the wrong note.
Carefully, I stand on my toes.
This is too much can't you see?
Is this jealousy?
Can you forgive me?
What do you see?
Will you be mad at me?
I'll take a step back.
I just need to relax.
I wont overreact
For your love that I lack.
I'm not worried and I'm sure that you're happy now.
I try not to get involved, but I don't know how
To keep myself back from you, like a best friend should.
I can't keep the distance like I know that I should.
Maybe it'd be easier for me to turn away
And to give you a cold shoulder and lead you astray.
"I just want you to live a better life," I'll say.
"Don't you worry about me, I'll be okay."
I'll do just what he wants me to:
I'll go. I'll go.
You've got better things to do
I know, I know.
He doesn't have to be paranoid
I know that you're his boy.
I'll do just what he wants me to:
I'll go. I'll go.

Thief

Dreaming.
I’ve walked in this forest so many times and I’m
Searching
Looking for another piece to find ‘cause I’m
Hoping
I can reach you along the line.
Night horrors might come to mind.
I keep forward, don’t look behind. So I
Speak up
Holding to a fantasy far away. So I
Act up
Unsure of why I act this way and I
Stir up
Any trouble I can make.
Save you for a later date.
I’ll do just what I may.
I’m a thief, not a liar.
I’m no lover. I’m a fighter.
If you read the cards does it get any better?
I would go to sleep, but my dreams don’t have the answer.
Maybe if I drive maybe I might find peace at night.
I don’t really care but does my future get clearer?
Or will I spend every night wide awake out of terror?
Will he feel the same? Should I just give up on that fight?
Dreaming.
This has been occurring too many times and I’m
Screaming
Hoping that this thought is hard to find 'cause I’m
Feeling
Afraid I might cross the line
As I have so many times.
My armor may undermine and you
Speak up
Keeping my eyes away from you so you
Look up
Never quite sure what I’m gonna do for I
Act up
Far to often, that is true.
There’s just not much I can lose.
But one of the biggest things is you.
If you read the cards does it get any better?
I would go to sleep, but my dreams don’t have the answer.
Maybe if I drive maybe I might find peace at night.
I don’t really care but does my future get clearer?
Or will I spend every night wide awake out of terror?
Will he feel the same? Should I just give up on that fight?
I’m a thief, not a liar.
I’m no lover. I’m a fighter.

Forever

Every moment seems better with you.
Do you even see what kind of hell you put me through?
It's the way we smile and get along.
The way we stand and remain strong.
The way you love me when I'm wrong.
The way which we belong.
And as we take our turn
And as our faces, they burn.
We hold close as we dance together.
And as our feelings stir,
Our hearts start to flutter.
Could our souls stay entwined forever?
So I smile and I say
"Can this scene stay this way
Forever?"
You had to leave, had to go.
Promised me you'd come home
Remember? But you never...
"Pilot Error," So they say.
They all lied. To tell the truth
It's a story I refuse.
I've given up, put away
Everything. I have no more hope
I'll never find you.
What's left to say? There's no point
to pray. I know that you're gone.
There's nothing I can do.
Then you come back, back to me,
In my arms.
But you don't remember what we had do you?
Take a single step -- two more back
As I see that the man who I had has now left me.
I just can't stand the fantasies.
Everything is starting to crumble all around me.
I smile and wave I pretend it's okay
But the "forever" still rings...
And as I take my turn
And my teary eyes burn
I imagine our times together.
And my feelings still stir
But my heart's frozen and hurt.
What happened to forever?
And as we take our turn
And as our faces, they burn.
We hold close as we dance together.
And as our feelings stir,
Our hearts start to flutter.
Could our souls stay entwined forever?
So I sigh but I grin
"Can this scene come again
Forever?"
