What The Alien Learned About Love

by Cherry Blossoms

If you had a good time, let me know it ‘cause I don’t know what a good time is If you’re wanting my love, can’t you show it? ‘cause I don’t know what attraction is I would share my love with you But no one wants me to They’re trying to keep you safe But I swear that I won’t hurt you So if you had a good time, let me know it You were always the one that I wanted But I’ll admit that you’re not the first But these moments with you really changed me Yet, all these people will do their worst and hurt me... If you give me a chance, I would show you all the reasons to love yourself If you give me a chance, I would hold you every time you were overwhelmed You can make up your mind if you wanted There’s no reason for you to be haunted by the shadows and ghosts of your past and certain guys who gave you hell We can help each other if we wanted Won’t you tie my shoe for me, darling? I will pick up the pieces and help you find a reason to be well

I never know what time it is Because I’m always wasting time with you And I never know just what to do I never know where to go Because I’m always getting lost with you And I just never know what to do And I just think about tomorrow and hope that I’m with you And I’m scared your sister’s gonna kill me but that won’t change the truth I never know just what to say Because I always make weird sounds with you And we laugh it off like we’re on shrooms I think about you all the time And I hope you think about me too Because I wouldn’t know what I would do And I just think about tomorrow and hope that you’re alright And I just think about the times we laughed throughout the night And I just sit here painting visions of laughter in my head And I think that I’ll head over and spend the day with you instead.

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
5.
You’re still afraid to get close to somebody Tell me who hurt you and I’ll make them sorry This world is not that bad, please let me show you Give me your hand and help me get to know you And if you ever feel alone Feel free to call me on my mobile phone I’ll always be right by your side But just take your time I’ll be here all night When I’m with you it’s just eternal laughter Nobody else around us even matters I think that you and I’d look good together I hope these priceless moments last forever And if you let me see the pain inside I promise to make everything alright I only want you to be happy and care-free And though we act like no one else can see us I can’t help but feel there’s a wall between us Maybe one day you’ll let your guard down for me when you realize that you’re my one and only
6.
You’re the only one I love I’m so invested in your love And it scares me that I can’t see all the beauty unless you’re here with me...
7.
I met you at a crucial moment I was struggling to see the light You were there with the saddest eyes Yet, somehow you saved my life I could not believe it... Girl, I never thought I’d fall in love Many nights I’ve spent alone are now spent talking with you Let me stay in your atmosphere, so that my dreams could still come true I spend most of my time with you There’s nothing I’d rather do I just want to be in your life for as long as you’d let me stay I want to open up to you and tell you everything inside They say that love’s a scary thing, but at least I said I’d try
8.
You’re the white girl savior of my lonely heart ‘cause you make me feel alright the times we are together. My life is so much better when I see your fragile smile. Six long years of solitude But somehow you found me You let me know that I’m not alone And that we’re of the same breed And I can’t remember a time before I met you It’s like we’ve never been apart I feel at home when I could feel the beating of your heart And I never thought that we’d be inspirations for each other’s twisted minds We laugh so hard and we forget about the time  Sixteen was a boring age I thought I knew it all I let down my defenses and learned the introspective of a kid who’s been let down Time can heal a lonely heart and now that I’m with you I forgot my past, I hope this lasts Because I’m happy in your light

I Can Wait 04:10
In your eyes, I recognize all the pain Yeah, you can’t hide it And I feel I’m locked inside it I am with you all the way even though you still can’t trust me I can wait, I won’t be sorry ‘cause the love I have for you is keeping me from going back to being the slave I used to be... With you, I’m free to be myself No more pretending to be someone With you, I’ve got nothing to lose I feel safe with you around But we both add a bit of danger ‘Cause we’re not afraid to die And I’ve never felt this way for someone else You made me a stronger person Can’t you tell? And I know you don’t believe me, but I hope someday you will If it takes me years to prove it, I’ll never leave I’ll be here still By your side, I’ll always be You’ll never feel like you’re alone ‘cause you and I are something special We have a different set of needs You are always on my mind And nobody can replace you You are truly one of a kind And I hope one day you’ll finally come to see I am not how other people tend to be...
10.
It’s hard to share my feelings with a brick wall ‘cause every time I do, I take a big fall Into the darkness The world will harness me ‘til I die I never meant to make things awkward Why can’t we try and do this for ourselves? I swear there’s still life in me, don’t give up yet. I’d probably be dead if we hadn’t met The girl of my dreams She sits beside me Why can’t I see her? Why do I always push away those who try to be near and help me love myself? And I can’t let this darkness suck me in Maybe you can help me love again I can’t believe it’s happening to me (The shadows have returned) This cycle of despair won’t set me free (Sit back and watch me burn) And I can’t let this darkness suck you in Maybe I can help you love again Forget the ones who hurt you in the past (Just think about tomorrow) Just leave it up to me to make you laugh (There won’t be any sorrow)
11.
Please don’t let me down I’ll do anything to prove that I’m worthy of you Please don’t mess around I’ll do anything to show that my love for you just grows I know that games that you play Don’t play me I’ll never live it down How can I get you to stay? ‘Cause lately, I’m living in the now I was lost, but now I’m found Please don’t run away I’ll do anything to prove that I’m worthy of you You’re the only one Who can help me overcome all the things I used to run from
12.
I want to go back to the times when all the memories were good You helped me open up my eyes to see the things I never would And you’re so mesmerizing You’re the one, there’s no denying it So please, can’t you see that you make my life worth living? I feel nobody understands just why I feel the way I do They say you’re still only a child, oh, but I know that isn’t true And you’re so under-rated And it’s so frustrating to me Can’t they see that you make my life worth living? You’re the only one I’ve got who can make me feel like I belong In this cold and dismal place we live in Maybe we were meant to be... But unless we break the rules, you and I will never know what could have been So why don’t we just take a chance? I know it’s easier said than done I’ll give you time to think about it But I’m sure that you’re the one And my heart’s tired of breaking But I’ll keep on waiting for you ‘Cause it’s true that you make my life worth living.
13.
I’ll never come back home if I’d have to go back alone It’s not easy to change I think we both agree, you could live life without me But that doesn’t mean that we can’t try...  Please don’t let me down I’ll do anything to prove that I’m worthy of you Please don’t mess around I’ll do anything to show that my love for you just grows I know that games that you play Don’t play me I’ll never live it down How can I get you to stay? ‘Cause lately, I’m living in the now I was lost, but now I’m found
14.
I wake up and I think about you I wonder just how you’re doing I never wanna be without you It only makes me feel more human I never wanna be without your crinkled-nose smile and your rock ‘n’ roll style You make me feel like I can do anything Well... almost anything Oh, you’ve got nothing to do You’re lying in bed again and sleeping all day Yeah, you’ve got nothing to do So why don’t I just spend some time with you And then we’ll both be lazy Oh girl, you’re driving me crazy! Turning dark thoughts into poetic phrases Oh, I wouldn’t change this for anything You and I are a different species I guess we’re just two of a kind Make me laugh with your morbid humor What’s going on in our minds?? I never wanna be without your crinkled-nose smile and your rock ‘n’ roll style You make me feel like I can do anything Well... almost anything Oh, you’ve got nothing to do You’re lying in bed again and sleeping all day Yeah, you’ve got nothing to do  So why don’t I just spend some time with you And then we’ll both be lazy Oh girl, you’re driving me crazy! Turning dark thoughts into poetic phrases I wouldn’t change this for anything.

about

This is an album I wrote and recorded in the summer of 2013, one of the best summers of my life. I listened to this the other day and I sound really young and naive. Those were the days... Anyways, this album has actually been floating around for the last few years. There's a few hand-made physical copies out in the world, but now it's available for everyone! So I hope you all enjoy this time capsule documenting an important part of my life. xoxo -Chris
