A World To Believe In

I've seen the tears and the heartache
And I've felt the pain
I've seen the hatred
And so many lives lost in vain

And yet through this darkness
There's always a light that shines through
And takes me back home
Takes me back home

No matter what exists
beyond that tall wall
I don't want to run away
I'll continue to walk onward
and won't forget

You gave me a world to believe in
You gave me a love to believe in
For the sake of love
I can become stronger
as long as you are here

When it looked like
my heart would overflow with tears
If I noticed, I was never alone
Even on the windy days
Even on the rainy days

And I see for one fleeting moment
A paradise under the sun
I drift away
And I make my way back to you
I won't forget

You gave me a world to believe in
You gave me a love to believe in
No matter how many times it takes
It can be redone
as long as there is a tomorrow

Every time people are hurt
the truth is that they'll be brought
closer to an important answer

You gave me a world to believe in
You gave me a love to believe in
For the sake of love
I can become stronger
as long as you are here

You gave me a world to believe in
You gave me a love to believe in
No matter how many times it takes
It can be redone
as long as there is a tomorrow

As long as you're here with me
As long as you're here with me

Let's keep on living

Keep The Faith

Before, you were speaking selfishly, but
Here, you know baby, there was a place you could belong
It's possible to be hurt even when you can say what you believe, so
quietly, you traveled in search of kindness
Now, you're crouching here, resting your tired wings

No, No, No! You show me the faith
I'll definitely keep it for you
Alone, we'll lose sight of tomorrow, so
We'll shout this out loud so keep the faith

With no enemies, and no impossibilities
We'll fly on in high gear, and fuel on the flames
We'll slip out of these boring days
It's a solid promise so keep the faith

In a town full of mistakes,
don't be afraid if something tries to change you,
what's in your heart can't be altered
Burdened by words that weren't said, and pain that won't fade,
the fake smile is firmly in place

No, No, No! You show me the faith
I'll definitely keep it for you
we'll keep a light shining for you,
so don't cry alone, Keep the faith

Even if my voice is far away, my heart is here in this place
We dream, and we fall down, but get right back up
We're going to bet it all on this so keep the faith

Everyone pretends that they don't see anything, and they hurt you
You can feel me nearby, can't you? I'll rescue you out from there

That's why, close to you...

"Sweetie."

No, No, No! You show me the faith
I'll definitely keep it for you
Alone, we'll lose sight of tomorrow, so
We'll shout this out loud so keep the faith

With no enemies, and no impossibilities
We'll fly on in high gear, and fuel on the flames
We'll slip out of these boring days
It's a solid promise so keep the faith

We dream, and we fall down, but get right back up
We're going to bet it all on this so keep the faith!

Happiness

Yeah, yeah, yeah....

Rather than grieving in the headwind,
if we imagine all will go well, someday times will change.

When we're engrossed in living and with trivial matters,
when we falter in painful love, we have to stand up again each time.

If we think of the comings and goings of memories, it is too lonely.
Because an exciting future is sure to be waiting over there for us.

Start running, start running, let's go and welcome tomorrow.
Let me hear your voice, I feel it all.
Don't stop, don't stop, these feelings move me now.
No matter how small the hope may be, it is just my one and only happiness.

Even the feelings of tears cannot be put into words,
because it's alright not to worry about certain things.
What color is the rainbow of happiness?

When we find the answer, we'll have accumulated more memories.
From here we can progress without fear to a new place.

'Till far away, 'till far away, the path leads on forever.
Let me hear you speak, I'll always stay beside you.
Don't stop, don't stop, I believe in these feelings.
The hope may not have a name yet, but it is just my one happiness.

Start running, start running, let's go and welcome tomorrow.
Let me hear your voice, I feel it all.
Don't stop, don't stop, these feelings move me now.
No matter how small the hope may be, it is just my one and only happiness.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, YEAH!

You're My Jewelry

The shine in your eyes,
is like a gem in the twinkling stars.
Staring into those eyes,
the whole world is enchanted.

What I am saying is "I love you,"
the meaning is the same.
Your flattering words put me in a trance,
why don't you kiss me?

Baby, come to me.
I love you, only you.
Hear me, only me.
You're my jewelry.

But even a jewel grows hazy,
your sweet charm does not.
Even a huge diamond,
is mere foil in comparison to you.

Tell me more and more,
continue your pleasant words.
Your whisperings make me feel like royalty,
Why don't you kiss me?

Baby, come to me.
I love you, only you.
Hear me, only me.
You're my jewelry.

You're my jewelry.

Summer Blues

How can this phone not be love at first sight?

What's Playing In My Ear:"Iris"-The Goo Goo Dolls

Summer flies by like water falling through my cupped hands. How I wish that I could save these moments forever. SUMMER, SLOW DOWN, DAMMIT!
I attended my first Sweet Sixteen party, and it turned out much more fun than I expected. I got a few looks from some guys, saw my friends, and found out that I have an inner hillbilly just itching to get out (I won the hoe-down contest). The only things that bugged me were:
A) I kept getting hit on by this one friend of mine
B) My hair went from straight to curly in just an hour of dancing
I also had my first slow-dance, but it was just with a friend. I don't like him or anything, it was kind of funny, actually.
My parents finally gave in and got me a new phone.....WITH TEXTING!!!!!! LG RUMOR, silver and green, camera, full keyboard, bluetooth, fun ringtones, and to top it off, I found a 1GB memory card for $9.95 to boot!
High phone bills, here I come.
I have actually been texting quite a bit, seeing as I strained a ligament in my foot this past weekend. I spent my last day with advil, ice, a footrest, and a marathon of "The Secret Life of the American Teenager."
Worst Acting EVER.
At least I had a chance to catch up on my writing. I'm almost done with chapter twelve, where a lot of drama takes place. This summer has really been good to my fans. :D
I'm not quite sure what's been bothering me lately, but I have been feeling a bit blue. Maybe it's because last week I was constantly with my friends, but now I've spent most of this week by myself. I guess I just got a bit lonely is all, I mean, when you're off your feet it's tough to socialize. I used the opportunity to clean my room and finish reading this really interesting book called "Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Muslim Women." Now I'm reading "Queste," the latest "Septimus Heap" series book.
Maybe I need to meditate or something similar to divert my bad energy. Or I could cook, and by "cook" I mean "attempt to prepare some kind of food and end up causing an explosion."
Yeah, let's stick to meditation or Tai Chi.
Well, I'm off to change my Ace bandage, don't wait up for me. I'll be here....alone....
Damn, I need crutches or something to get me out of the house.
