Sitting in the dark, I never thought I’d see the light again
Shadows in my heart would drain the life from me, it’d never end
And I don’t know what to think of these turn of events, I’m suddenly amused
It’s so hard to admit you’re the reason I’ve changed, now everything is new
Life is boring, unless I’m here with you
Life is boring, but I think I’ll make it through
Life is boring, unless I’m here with you
Life is boring...
I used to live my life thinking what was wrong was right and now it’s come back to haunt me
But I guess that I’m to blame. I’ll take this walk of shame
so I could leave this past behind me
It was love at second sight and I knew it the night we sat around the flames
And I don’t know what to think of these turn of events, my life’s forever changed
And I can’t help but feel these feelings
I know that people won’t approve
Your opinion’s all that matters
I know together we can’t lose
And darling, I swear that I won’t hurt you
I don’t care what others say
I just want to make you happy
Like the way that you made me
Life is boring...
but not with you.

Champagne Confessions

She's just a dancer
But I'm enthralled by all the things she does to me
I'm a romantic
It's in my blood to make her see what's make believe
But I can't believe in our love
I'm contemplating
breaking her heart or holding on 'til nothing's left
It's so frustrating
being in love with an idea you might regret
And I can't commit to our love
I'm sorry for the things I haven't done
I'm sorry for the fights I've always won
I know you always feel like second best
I'm sorry that this time I won't regress
Her life's a movie
I'm just an actor doing everything I'm told
This love is fruitless
I lie in debt to all the things I can't control
And I can't commit to her love
It's hard to know when she's alive
Her heart stopped beating when her sister died
I guess I should feel some remorse
But I don't
I never meant to get you so upset
I'm sorry that in time you won't forget

Close your eyes and count to ten
When you awake, I’ll love you then
It’s not that hard to say hello
So if you love me let me know
You seem like an old-fashioned girl
And I want love not bitter sex
And as a boy lost in the world
I’m waiting for what’s to come next
You drive me crazy
I’m so in love with you
I fell so hard
Now, I don’t know what to do
I’ll do anything for you
We laugh so hard until we’re sore
Our sense of humor’s immature
I’m bottled up, the pressure builds
My heart explodes, it’s such a thrill
I can’t let go
Your soul’s my soul
I’ve lost control
Close your eyes and free your mind
With hearts so close, who cares ‘bout time?
I can’t stand all these people here
If I were God, they’d disappear

Since You Left

Since you left, I felt like an empty shell
No emotion, yet the pain still hurts like hell
Why can't we be together?
Why can't this last forever?
When you were here, all my loneliness was gone
But since you left, I've lost the strength to carry on
Why can't we be together?
Why can't this last forever?
We could not be free
We're separated by the sea
I'll swim to you someday
When this darkness goes away
Years from now, will you still be the same girl that I know?
Will you forget me? Will you be loved? Or still alone?
Why can't we be together?
Why can't this last forever?
I'll never find another girl who could compare
I'll search for you, but I know you won't be there
Why can't we be together?
Why can't this last forever?
We could not be free
We're separated by the sea
I'll swim to you someday
When this darkness goes away
Why can't we be together?...
