about

This song is probably one of the most meaningful to me. I wrote it about my mom and myself I guess... :)

lyrics

Said you hate reality
As you cried yourself to sleep
I stayed up all night
And I’d draw, draw til you’d wake up and see what you like

If it’s still not like your dreams
I”ll go back again tonight
Tomorrow night, the next next night
Never mind
If you’ll open your eyes again

And I’ll keep trying till I see that smile that once saved me
Cus if this selfish world could bring you to me
There’s nothing that could take more miracle than this
Maybe I’m a liar but here I am with every ounce of truth there’s left in me
Can you trust me?

If you ask
I will take you there
Cus my heart
Will always find a way to where all your dreams are
And I wouldn’t ask for more than that you’ll let me be there
If you ask
If you’d ask

Oh they say god makes no mistakes
But that ain't true, I’ve got proof in my chest
He’d slipped one heart into two
And I know cus mine can’t beat without you

You laughed, “What a dumb cliche”
Just like all of my other lame jokes you hate
Just now a tear fell down my eye
It’s the first time I’ve seen you smile again

So here’s another cheesy song for you
I don’t care, I’ll write a thousand more
I’ll sing it in the bathroom, the streets, in the shopping mall, write it all over your bedroom wall
Cus lately you’ve been crying so loud and I’m getting scared this song won’t reach pass through that sound
So I’ll sing it louder
Louder

If you ask
I will take you there
Cus my heart
Will always find a way to where all your dreams are
And I wouldn’t ask for more than that you’ll let me be there
If you ask
If you ask

If you ask
I’d bleed all my blood cells, my liver, my lungs, my kidney
I’d cry, cry till all your tears are washed out by mine
Cus in this world there’s nothing real
But still I believe
I believe in you
Of all the things you are
All the things you’ve done
Don’t you know you’re beautiful?
You’re beautiful

Here I am
This place that you’ve dreamed…
Isn’t it?
So where are you as I’m singing these words from your song
I’m getting tired without you here singing along
If you asked…
If only you had asked….
