Lately It's All About You

I seldom wish for things to fade
But I make this wish today
To rid me of the dreams of you
And memories of what we've been through.

Goodbye to Hello

I feel...crummy. I don't know why, I guess just everything is sinking in too fast for me. I'm leaving my home to go to another city all on my own. That might sound like sissy whining, but to be honest, I didn't leave home much as a kid. My parents lost a child through a miscarriage before me, so once I was born I was pretty much always in their sights. I'm independent to the extent that I can be. I just won't get used to how loud the outside world is. But I'm so ready for university.

Oh but here's the kicker.

I'm going to the same university as my ex.

Not smart. To this day I still wonder what was going on through my mind when I clicked accept. I mean I had so many other options. So many better options, but I guess I just didn't want to stay home.

Then again, this university has been my dream place since grade 11. Wait. I guess that doesn't help my case. I meant grade 11 way before I met her.

We see each other now and don't say anything to each other. Just awkward smiles and wave. She says it's cause she doesn't notice. I guess I'm pretty unnoticeable.

Wow I feel like shit. I just can't wait til this feeling finally washes over. Cheers.

VERSE 1:
You say I only hear what I want to
Tell me that I only really need you
But please don’t go and change my mind
I’ll hold your hand, this one last time
I’m holding on but let’s just say goodbye
[But baby please just one last try]

VERSE 2:
[I see you come and go
To say goodbye to hello]
As you walk down this aisle with a halo~
Don’t say you won’t find someone like me
When you’re walking beside someone from your team
Though you always said that I was too easy
Cause after all it’s still hard to breathe
Don’t say that I’m better off without you
After everything that we’ve been through
I still see it, still believe it

CHORUS:
One – last – time
I’m saying goodbye
[I’m saying, I’m saying]
Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello

VERSE 3:
I slow my footsteps as I hear you speak
Wondering if you still have everything you took from me
I walk behind you but I turn left and take a seat
Cause your gaze is the one I’m afraid to meet
You stand beside him before a priest
As you tell lies right through your teeth [I’ll always love you]
Telling him you love him to put his mind at ease
As he puts a ring that freaking gleams
Cause that’s exactly what you did to me
I still see it, can’t believe it!

CHORUS:
One – last – time
I’m saying goodbye
[I’m saying, I’m saying]
Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello
One – last – time
I’m saying goodbye
[I’m saying, I’m saying]
Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello, Goodbye to hello

How Can I Forget

Song used for effect: Love Drunk – Boys like Girls [in italics, quotations and/or square brackets]

“Top down in the summer sun
The day we met was like a hit and run
And I still taste it on my tongue”

Sometime I still remember
We’re no longer together
And memories of our first kiss
Slowly drifts into my mind

“The sky was burning up like fireworks
You made me want you, oh, so bad it hurt
But girl, in case you haven't heard”

Sometime I still remember
The times when we’re together
And I thought the love that we shared
Would last forever

“Hot sweat and blurry eyes
We're spinning on a roller coaster ride
The world stuck in black and white”

But what can I say
I’m just a kid today
How can I wake –
From this dream
Of you.
Something I can’t do –

“You drove me crazy every time we touched
Now I'm so broken that I can't get up
Oh girl, you make me such a lush”

I turned around to look at you [All the time I wasted on you]
After playing with your calculator [All the bullshit you put me through]
As you did your calculus [I'm checking into rehab 'cause everything that we had]
To find you looking at me [Didn't mean a thing to you~]
Expectantly
And I didn’t know what to do [I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hung over]
Then it happened [I love you forever, but now I'm sober]
I kissed you
My eyes opened in shock, [I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hung over]
Confused [I love you forever, forever is over]
As to [We used to kiss all night, now it's just a bar fight]
How I found [So don't call me crying, say hello then goodbye]
Someone like you. [Oh yeah!]

So much trouble sleeping at night
I’m starting to grow weary
And tired of this fight
That I keep putting up
To keep my mind right
But when the end is near
It’s the end of my sight.

"Cause I used to be love drunk...but now I'm hung over
I love you forever...but now I'm sober."
