My Nature

I will be the false illusion
You don´t want to have
I will be the word
That gives me your attention
And makes your mouth my slave

I will be your car
Take me gently and drive me very far
I will drive you mad
I will be the ride
You wish you´d never had

I will be a song
That echoes in your head
Listen to me in your bed
Listen to me everywhere
And forget where you belong

I will be a storm in your mind
A hundred wars in your heart
I will amuse you and confuse you
I will make you go so blind
You won´t see me when I part

I will be a picture
Unerasable to your memory
You will think about me often
Because it´s in my nature
To never be forgotten

Only a Dream Away

My innocent heart
Repository of all my dreams
I ask nothing else from you
Than for you to turn the page
And recover from all broken illusions

There is such a power in forgiveness
Don´t ever get jealous nor insecure
Not too selfaware to feel guilty
Nor too proud too feel lonely
Life is too inmense

One day you may know true bliss
Next day need to hide from all my errors
Just so you can breath again
Maybe there´s a trick I don´t know about
Else just believe in the lie and leave

I want my medicine
I need to recover and rest in peace
It´s the seventh day
Where do you go when you want to hide from a ghost
Or something else that time can´t erase

Here comes the rain again
Pain is as addictive as solitude
Thoughts wander through the landscape of my heart
I want you in my corner of the world
But will you fill my soul in time

Heart of mine, hold on to your dreams
How can I feel real if not
Memories can be beautiful but
My broken soul can´t be alive till you are by my side
This truth, the worst of all lies
Is only a dream away

The Soundtrack of All My Mistakes

I don´t know what happened
I just know that it all went wrong
I was making sandcastles in my head
Suddenly I reawoke and saw
A misery from start to finish

The night was city purple
The kind of night that looks good on me
Half full of anxiety and half full of joy
I had to believe
Then I fell into a ring of fire

My soul was starving
It was time to write my own book
Instead of my walls falling
Everytime you close the door
I did it because uncertainty
Held a gun to my head

Prepared to succeed
I told you you were a star
But you aren´t
There were feelings but no intentions
So you can´t scream that they were mine

Everything ends but
Not everything needs to end badly
Now I´m leaving this place where I´m no one at all
My eyes are locked on your window
My heart chained to your memory

Tonight everything is different
The only thing worse than losing you
Is not losing you at all
So I´m reclaiming my soul back
So I can do it all over again

Intention to be Happy

I committed the error of many
Thinking that I deserved it
Trouble was what I needed
To get you out of my mind
Trouble was what I got

The Moon looked in and thought
She had already seen it all
There was one thing left
Our farewell said in silence
It has no beginning and no end

We knew each other too well
A soul with two bodies and one mind
I was drinking you
But without getting drunk
Now my soul is out of order
Because of somebody elses love story

They say time is a healer
Still it was pain that changed me
This is a world full of color
That sadness and bitterness can´t see
I hide them both in my pocket
Self-preservation is safe in my purse
In my heart a prayer
Meant to adore

Perhaps pain doesn´t actually disappear
Instead you learn how to incorporate it
Learn how to co-exist with it
Then time passes by and one day
Suddenly it doesn´t matter any more

Now it´s too late to save us
Life doesn´t stop at redlights
It has a full time job

Today a smile is my best make-up
All dressed up in sunshine
I´ll meet a lot of someone elses
And there was you
Thinking I had no heart at all

I look around and find myself trapped
In this burning desire
My intention to be happy

Let Love Begin

What we love determines what we seek
I seek the love the unites and heals
What I will find might save our lives

Love is the motivating principle
As we try to become better than we are
Your welfare will come before mine
If you promise you will take care of me forever

Dear someone, for whom I smile when no one else can see
How prepared are you to beg me to chose you
Are you the greater or are you the good
I will need to know because
Valueable lessons will be remembered for a long while
I prefer remembering you for not being gone

I´ve learned from everything but experience that
Saying I love you is only the beginning
There is greater happiness ahead
When you learn how to live without illusions
