Verse 1 As I hold your picture to the light You don’t seem perfect anymore As I linger on your static eyes I realize I don’t love you like before Instead of being mesmerized...

We're all just looking for attention, to be discovered overnight. We're all frustrated by the popular ones that claim the limelight before they fall to pieces. So many of us are stuck under the radar--what makes me different? You decide!

if your not willing to risk it all. then you dont want it bad enough.<br /> <br /> i took your matches before fire could catch me, so dont look now.<br /> <br /> the face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart.<br /> ... <br /> She was scared, <br /> Unprepared,<br /> Lost in the dark, <br /> Falling apart.<br /> <br /> You dont have to answer, i can hear you speaking through your silence;<br /> Taking my love for granted, like my weakness is kindness.<br /> <br /> forget the risk and take the fall; <br /> because if its what you want, its worth it all. <br /> <br /> Runaway train never going back,<br /> Wrong way on a one way track,<br /> Seems like I should be getting somewhere,<br /> Somehow I&#039;m neither here nor there<br /> <br /> Never apologize<br /> For saying what you feel,<br /> Thats like saying <br /> &quot;Sorry For Being Real.&quot; <br /> <br /> If you treat someone like a celebrity,<br /> don&#039;t be surprised if they treat you like a fan..<br /> <br /> take pride that<br /> even though the rest of the world may disagree,<br /> you still believe it to be a beautiful place.<br /> <br /> if there&#039;s a tomorrow when we&#039;re not together,<br /> theres something you must always remember. <br /> you&rsquo;re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. <br /> but the most important thing is even if we&rsquo;re apart, ill always be with you,&hearts;
