I've noticed...

So tell me when it all falls down can you see the real me, the real person standing in the rain of her own shadow, no one can see trough lately I’ve been drowning, swimming in this pain and i’ve made a lane… made diamonds from the pressure inside my chest, realizing that pain is only temporarly and with that comes an opportunity to make magic…

Cause tonight its you and me, face to face, shade to shade… My shadow kinda dig yoursss… oh baee… let me hit ya, hit ya, here comes the explosion… play with my hair, swim in my ocean, let’s make love under the rain… let it rain.. rain on my skin… on your skin… We are one… in this game.

You and me with the world, we are united.

No shame, no game, fair play, we’ll always stay in paradise.

Drop

I see it coming but i’m ready this time

Baby imma pull those strings out

For every drop i drink

Red red wine

Mixing pain with pleasure

I can make you feel alright

Even though I’m not

Swim in My Ocean tonight

I'm asking myself
If living without a feeling is really living
Is heaven everything any good
If everything's all you have

I locked myself away
I became untouchable
Got caught up by the day
Dreamin' of blue skies
Nothin' in my way
Just the person in the mirror
Take me to the flame
It's now or never

Each bottle of emotion
Each tear I never cried
I need a big explosion
It's time for me to fly

Take it back.

Some of us have been taught to blame and make others responsible for our pain. Sometimes this may be true, but... IT'S NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX what they may have broken. Sucks, doesn't it? When that finally hit home for me, I hated life. I hated life because that just was not fair. I hated life because, no matter what, it was a waste of my precious time to sit and wait for the people I was blaming to change my circumstances. Waiting had me feeling powerless which made me furious. I had to take my power back from the people and circumstances that had more power over me than my own will. The gift of our power is to make something useful, great and fulfilling from the pain we endure. And I swear, the day will come when you take pleasure in your gift of transforming inevitable disappointment, betrayal and loss into...a life with much meaning and beauty. Do it once and you will NEVER, EVER give the responsibility of your happiness...to another soul... again.

TAKE IT BACK! It's yours!

Tell me

I know you've been going trough some things, uh huh
I know you don't even love the 
same, do you, do you?
I know you've been running' on 
empty, runnin' on empty ...


Tell me how you crumble when you hit the wall, the place you cannot go beyond by the strength of your own will. What carries you to the other side of that wall, to the fragile beauty of your own humanness?
