Lemon Dream Boy
People are puppets held together with string
But here was a man mourning tomorrow
He drank, but finally drowned in his sorrow
How could it end like this?
Feels like I'm losing my mind
There's a sting in the way you kissed me
Feels like a dream of me all of the time, baby
He could not break surface tension
He looked in the wrong place for redemption
But you've got strength, you've got soul
You're not afraid, you're not a drone
And I try
A final crusade
We are the helpless, selfish, one of a kind
This world is changing
Millenium kids that all wanna die
But I'm still the same
I know I'm no sweet prince of love
Those times that we got drunk
It happens all the time, it happens all the time
You can't even see how much you're mine
Why can't I say it then?
I want you all the time
The world is cold
But it's beautiful
I wish you were here now
I miss you so
So bitter, bitter, bitter, yellow
Settle, settle, got to settle, down, okay
Listen, listen, listen, yellow
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
If you leave me then I'll be afraid of everything
I know they're thinking
Don't look at me with those eyes
I can't decide
So I figured I might as well let him be
Turn back the time that drew him
There's a beautiful sadness that runs through him
He couldn't be saved
So I got myself a citrus friend
And they call him Lemon Boy
Come a little bit closer.
Hear what I have to say.
Come away with me,
and I will write you a song.
If the sky we look upon should crumble and fall,
I know we’ll meet again some sunny day.
If you see my reflection in a snow-covered hill,
I will buy you a garden where your flowers can bloom.
And if you’re lost,
you can look,
and you will find me.
We can be heroes
and float down Grand Street and daylight
and we’ll have Halloween on Christmas
and we’ll keep on fighting till the end.
We’re fated to pretend.
God only knows what I’d be without you.
You—soft and only.
You—lost and lonely.
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world.
I’m still learning to love,
just starting to crawl;
we’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,
and you’re my wonderwall.
A Disney Mix
I've been staring at the edge of the water
Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?
If there's so much I must be
Can I still just be me,
The way I am?
Just around the river bend
The bees are buzzin' in the tree
The world for once in perfect harmony
Wish I could be
Part of that world
And at last I see the light
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
Like a shooting star, I will go the distance
When I’m way up here it’s crystal clear,
Love will find a way.
Celebrating Persistence and Survival
Each day I live I want to be a day to give the best of me. I've lived to be the very best. I want it all, no time for less. It's my life. It's now or never! I ain't gonna live forever! I broke my heart, for every gain. To taste the sweet, I face the pain. I rise and fall, yet through it all... My heart is like an open highway. Like Frankie said I did it my way. I want one moment in time When I'm more than I thought I could be. When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away And the answers are all up to me, Give me one moment in time When I'm racing with destiny. 'Cause I'm a conqueror And I won't accept defeat! Try telling me no... One thing about me Is I'm a conqueror. I am a conqueror! And I'll rise up, I'll rise like the day. I'll rise up! I'll rise unafraid! I'll rise up... And I'll do it a thousand times again...
'Cause I'm a conqueror...
