worth it

you never know what you want
until it's finally there
you'll finally be caught
in that dumbstruck stare

uncertain of he's next hello
you'll never say goodbye
you'll never let him go
just always stay by your side

if you're fortunate enough
he will feel the same
that is what we call love
time and time again

as simple as sharing a smile
complicated as sharing your love
he makes it worth while
with every kiss, every hug



rough patch?

a road less travelled
contain more mystery
that are to be unravelled
that are for us to seek

i used to walk alone
to be at my own pace
i've now changed my tone
with this exceptional case

mistakes are regret
two words i never use
til i thought you were it
til i thought it were you

now i'm laughing at myself
knowing i did myself wrong
i just want to scream and yell
it was too good all along

you were bound to fail me
i was destined to fail you
it took an ocean of tears to see
to reach this moment of truth

is this it, is it over?
i thought we were stronger
can it be i'm now sober
thought it would last longer

was i mistaken all along
or were we living in denial
why is it i'm here alone
while you stand there, so idle

prove me wrong will you?
tell me i'm ridiculous
tell me your side of the truth
and maybe we'll get through this


right now

savour this moment
like it's the last ray of sunshine
cherish this scent
like it's the last bloom of springtime

as though nothing better
can replace this memory
as though the gloomiest of weather
can never separate you and me


the better of me

i wish life was simpler
i wish to care less
to be freer
and just do my best

back to when what mattered
was to be the first on the slide
when only that can shatter
my hope and my pride

now just a few words
about life without me
but instead with her
can uproar my misery

she is everything i'm not
and everything i want to be
without me you haven't lost
but instead got the better of me

done and dusted

so we can try, pretend
and avoid each other
but in the absolute end
it'll make no differ

you and i will always
remember and know
how real it felt that day
before all the woe

it's not right for me
to blame it all on you
but it was you who seeked
the final and exiting, excuse

every word we ever said
i shall remember dearly
everything we ever did
i shall remember clearly

what difference it'd make
on reality, i don't know
but in the land of my unwake
i'll be able to tell myself, go

get away and move on
it wasn't worth a fight
the truth is he's gone
his obviously not Mr. Right

wonder if you know

wonder what you'd say
if you heard those butterflies fluttering away

wonder what you'd do
if you know how much i like you

wonder what would happen
if our road was to come to an end

wonder how my life would be
if you weren't here with me

wonder how beautiful would this view be
if you weren't looking with me

wonder what it'd be like walking home
if i were walking alone

wonder if you wonder as much as i
if you'd see the world through my eyes
