My Lovely Insanity
The looks, the stares, The whispers and glares Watching and mocking all that I do And everything I say In their eyes I'm wrong in every way
I know what they think But why can't they see? The beautiful heart Behind my lovely insanity?
The voices in my head They whisper about the things That people say to hurt me The voices and I, Ridiculing their cliques, Their standards, Their ideas of what I should be
I want to make them see the world Would be better for us all If they could just accept or understand Who I am instead of Who they want me to pretend to be Without my lovely insanity
I murmur words no one comprehends And talk to people inside of my head I see things that no one else see's And think things no one else would believe They all blame it on my lovely insanity
Wouldn't we all be better off? If the people we love Loved us for who we are And for who we want to be? Instead of who they think We all ought to be?
All I can do is hope That one day they'll know That soon they'll all see That my lovely insanity Is just me being me

Before You Go
Before you go Over the seas Take me with you In your heart For all eternity.
I know I might not be there And I know it might hurt But before you go Please just let me see That loving smile happy
Don't tell me not to cry Don't tell me not to die a little inside Don't tell me you'll okay Because deep inside we both know it's a lie
So before you go And leave me Always take me with you In your Heart
When times get rough And times get hard Just think of me And my smile And let yourself laugh a little
So Joshua my friend Always remember me please For all eternity you will see That I haven't left you all alone That I'm always with you
Before you go Take me with you Take me in your heart For all eternity

I don't know if I've entered this one before or not, but here it is. A lullaby I wrote...
My Lullaby
Please don't cry my baby Dry those tears away Whisper all your hopes and dreams And we will find a way
Everything will be okay Oh my sweetest child I know it may seem hard right now But baby please just smile
And I'll be here forever I'll guard you through the night I'll give you all that you need So you don't have to fight
Hush now little baby I'll never lave your side And even through the hardest times It will be alright
Please don't cry my baby Dry those tears away Whisper all your hopes and dreams And we will find a way
