Downhill battle- I can see the bottom.
Crying soundlessly on the floor
A downpour, showering my filthiness with pity.
I don't want it, never will.
Gone so far-it's a downhill battle.
You never see the signs, the cuts and the blood.
My reason-my destiny-to bing the world flood.
Take it all- don't look back.
I know your heart is one track.
Never see me- you deserve better.
Don't look back- I don't want you to see me wither.
If only you knew-the tears I wiped away.
They were for you, but I was your prey.
It's a downhill battle-I won't be able to stop.
My heart is shattered, for you had dropped it.
Darling, darling- feel the world rock.
It is you, I haven't forget.
Don't you see, I'm the one you need.
Believe me- see me- feel it too.
You aren't true.
Treat me like a king to watch me crumble.
Watch me- ill turn to rubble.
Couldn't I be spared- how subtle
You're terrible, playing with my strings.
I just hope you see the thoughts you spring.
How did I get it wrong-pick you out of the crowd.
I see your pride is too heavy-does it make you proud?
You only see my body-but what about what's inside?
I let you in that day I cried.
Do you see the vivid rainbow lose its shine?
You would if you were mine.
My clouds are parting and becoming clear
But the sunshine will not reach me here.
How can I leech myself to someone who hasn't smiled- someone to which I am separated by miles.
A magical sparkle in your pale blue eyes
They're oceans in my mind.
Give me your hand-you didn't mean to cause this.
You never know- I couldn't tell you myself.
Glimmer, glimmer- see you with him.
You sweet-talk me- but you love him.
Can you see the pain I put myself through to set to you?
Sparkle, sparkle- you're killing me.
Drip, drip- let me see
Glimmer,glimmer- I am who you need.
I'm falling for you all over again
You follow me, keep my heart beating under my skin.
I'm tired of hiding in my shadow-
Tired of being someone to which I am not proud.
Let me in, let me love you.
I could be your dream come true.
Open up your heart and tear down your walls.
Let me through.
Allow me to love you.
Uphill battle- I see the top.
Smiling pretty- I know my place.
A downpour, drenching me in love.
I want it- i want yours.
Come so far- you're the heart I want.
I might not win but I'll stay afloat.
Keep swimming- keep my head above high tide.
Il never- I haven't died.
Too cold for my angel to fly.
I know tonight isn't the night.
I'll win- keep fighting for you.
Keep my happiness alive- keep walking.
Keep my legs moving.
The best in life is achieved by work.
You'll keep my perk alive.
I'll fight for you-until the end of my life.
Notice me- keep my heart alive
Even if not- I will survive.
Sway with the tides;
I will survive.
I'll make do- be happy without you.
The invisible chains are gone now.
I can be happy but I want you.
I just can't see it through.
