Before it's too late ~ Goo Goo Dolls

I wandered through fiction
To look for the truth
Buried beneath all the lies
And I stood at a distance
To feel who you are
Hiding myself in your eyes

Hold on, before it's too late
We'll run till we leave this behind
Don't fall, just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

And the risk that might break you
Is the one that would save
A life you don't live is still lost
So stand on the edge with me
Hold back your fear and see
Nothing is real till it's gone

Hold on, before it's too late
We'll run till we leave this behind
Don't fall, just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

So live like you mean it
And love till you feel it
It's all that we need in our lives
So stand on the edge with me
Hold back your fear and see
Nothing is real till it's gone

Hold on, before it's too late
We'll run till we leave this behind
Don't fall, just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives

Hold on, before it's too late
We'll run till we leave this behind
Don't fall, just be who you are
It's all that we need in our lives
It's all that we need in our lives
It's all that I need in my life

~(miss)understood~

I said to myself "I'm OK"
And showed my usual smile
I was not in desperation
But in a kind of defiance


I hid my trembling hand from some people
Because their sympathy was so hollow


I don't get warmed
By half-hearted and artificial warmth
I rather want them to shut their eyes
Until I break into pieces without a trace


I don't want to hear nor speak
The fine words any longer
The pain will be getting worse
So I just accept it


The air is awfully clear
The calm before a storm


What do those people really want to know
With seeming kindness
Hiding a sharp knife of curiosity
Behind their gentle looking eyes?


What do you really want?
What do you really wish?
Where do you really aim for?
And with whom?


It's the first and the last time
For you to live just as yourself
You should draw your own path
After spreading a big map
