there's no reason for me to know this, and it might sound weird, but that mixed berry yogurt you're eating is about to expire. that's the moment you knew that you liked me, and that's the moment i knew that i loved you.
cuz i'm just a guy with a crush on a girl with a boyfriend. i did the hardest thing i could: just waited, and for a really long time, that's all i had; little moments with a friend, my best friend.

lose myself in your sunlight cuz you are the summer; sixteen hours of pure sunshine, and i am the winter, the cold in your chest. i'm just hoping for the best.
so if you want roses, go and buy them yourself, cuz i'm not the type of man to express myself. at least not anymore, i used to be, until i lost all of my confidence in me.
i know i shouldn't but i miss you every night, and i should not say i love you but i feel it all the time, cuz you are a dream to me and i don't wanna wake up. i'm just hoping that you'll stay, cuz i need you.
so if you want roses, i'll go buy you a bunch, cuz i'm learning to be better and i just can't give you up. whatever it takes, i will be there for you, because you mean the whole world to me.

It Never Snows Anymore

winter exists to remind us that things must end to begin again. so who hurt you today? will that ever change? it's all the same each and every day.
like the setting sun on the shortest day, you caught me off guard when you ran away. if i'm not over it, i'm closer every day. tomorrow, i'll think of you in just one less way.
i hate that i let you break my heart so eagerly. i hate that i let you walk out of my life so easily, how could i not?

they say time heals all, it just replaces the memories. you're not always meant to heal, but learn from your losses. cuz baby i miss you, why'd you have to go so soon? it's been over a year, but i still set the table for two.
cuz i wanna die in the winter when it's cold and lonely, just like every afternoon spent in our house without you.
i never thought it'd be you, i'd take your place if i could. death brings a new perspective, deep down we always knew it would. a hint of light in the dark, just enough to spark, the hope of getting through, getting through to the end.
cuz i wanna die in the winter when it's cold and lonely, just like every afternoon spent in our house without you. i wanna die in the winter on the same day as you. we'll be together again soon, just like our first date in june.

you think you're not enough for me, so i made you this dvd of the last 8 years of our lives, and how it took the first 3 for you to fall in love with me. it took 3 years for you to fall in love with me.
from our first kiss at the dundies, to the rest stop off exit 17 where i asked you to marry me; in the pouring rain we'd accept eternity, soaking wet just like our wedding day when i cut my tie in solidarity, or the time that you broke your ankle and we found out you had our baby. and we'd start our own little family.
so you think you're not enough for me? well, what the hell would make you think that way? cuz baby, it's just you and me and you know you've always been my everything. you've always been my everything. you'll always be my everything.

i don't wanna move, no i just wanna stay right here with you. i don't wanna leave, no i just wanna stay right here for eternity. cuz you make me feel so alive, i wish i could give you that same high. and i'll paint rainbows in your grey skies just to get the darkness off your mind.
i miss the things we used to do inside your bedroom, you never made me feel alone when i was with you. i hate to think of all the things we used to say, it makes me feel sad cuz i'm still not over you. cuz you made me feel so alive, i wish i had given you that same high. now i'll paint rainbows in your grey skies, just to get myself back on your mind.
i miss the things we used to do inside your bedroom, you never made me feel alone when i was with you. now it sucks because i can't even move onto a normal life cuz i'm still in love with you.

Sunflower

infinity never felt like anything other than impossibility until i found myself within her company. forever seemed to be more than just imaginary, at least to me, it used to be. it used to be.
so when i'm feeling all alone, i'll think of you. wouldn't you want me to? it's all i ever do. i miss when i wasn't falling apart, cuz i'm falling apart from your change of heart, it happened from the start. when i feel all alone, i reflect on you and all the things we'd do, until you found someone new. and when i'm falling from that edge, i'll think of you. wouldn't you want me to? it's the last thing i'll do.
sunflower, you're in my head.
sunflower, you left me in your bed.
sunflower, you make me wish that i was dead.

i know that i'm wrong, and i know it doesn't help, but i just wanna wake up someday in love with myself. i know that it's wrong, but i know that it helps, i just can't go to sleep without hurting myself. i know that i can't fix you and you're never gonna fix me, but baby, if you wanna, we can try it and see, cuz i'm driving myself crazy spending all of my nights without you right here, right by my side.
all that i know about this life is you're the one for me. you're the one for me, so please don't leave.

i'd still give up all my time just to get to call you mine. and i know exactly how you feel when you're feeling alone. I think back on all the things i think i've missed since i've worked here my whole life, and then you came to replace toby: the prettiest mover i'd ever seen.
i promise you i'll find a way to fuck this up, and i promise you i'll ruin this, but not on purpose. i promise you i'll try to hard and i'll scare you off, cuz it's what i do when i'm into you, i fuck things up.

it feels empty inside my head; i feel so lost again. i held your heart in my hands, and you held mine, but were you ever really there? i gave you a whole year of my life and even more in my head. the only thing worse than feeling pain is feeling nothing at all. so do you miss me too? or am i confused?
do you still think of me?
