coffee stains and tide-to-go

Friendships fall apart
So others can be made
Relationships break up
So better ones can be made in place

But as much as I believe
that this is true
I'm so glad
that I held onto you

Maybe I had to prove something
To myself this whole time
Or maybe I was trying
to show you something

like how we are meant to stick together

Oh! Summer

We could get away from here
We can run away
We can run far away from here
You and me and all our dreams

We can go to the mountains
We can go to the ocean
We can go to the prairies
We can go to the furthest corners of our minds

Driving along, singing at the top of our lungs
Pictures, laughs, so much joy
Late night talks, a bond
strengthened for life

Summertime
Road Trips
Friends
Love

This summer is looking to be the best in years

The Other Side of a Cannot

i've proved them wrong before
i've shown that i'm not just
a number or a colour or
a face

i've gotten what was impossible
i've gotten what was was coming
i've caught that wave that looked so small
but was the center of the world

it hasn't been easy
it hasn't been all nice
it hasn't been friendly
- rough, mean, and lonely -

but in the end its worth everything
but in the end i know it was worth doing
when i get to see that smile on your face
and feel accomplished inside

this has been a great pleasure doing business

Knick Knacks

The best things
Are those little things
You know the ones
The ones that make you smile

And that fill your stomach with
butterflies of a million colours
And its just that little thing
that just happens to exist

A hot guy tells a plain girl
You are Beautiful
A tiny baby squeezes your fingers
And you know you're needed

The music and words just flow together
As you try something new
Just seeing the face of that special someone
Gives you a high all day

Hearing that one song that defines you
In every way
That one song that you can sing
Perfectly; word for word on key

Hearing from that old friend
That made a huge impact
An never thought you'd see again
And there they are

It's just those little things that mean so much to me

Come Along Together

i've held onto this
far too long
and i've been blaming myself
and taking it out on you

i'm sorry for anything that is untrue
but know not everything here is about you
it may seem like it is
but there's more that happened in my life

than just one misfortune
and one love
one boy and a girl
and the sky above our heads

i'll point to the evening star
when its dark and we meet again
there's too much life
in just one finger

sometimes words just aren't enough to say what needs to be said

Spread Love Like Violence, Yes

What is life
Without love?
What is love
Without life?

There is no point to live
If there isn't love
Because everything
Would be gloomy and black

What is the point of friends
If there is no love?
That person who will comfort you
Who will help you make it through

What is the point of music?
Of stories? Of art? Of pretty dresses?
What's the point of birds singing?
If there is no point of love why are we here?

You put the life into love
You make it so possible
You are the reason I will keep loving
You are love.

I will keep singing though my heart may get broken
1000x
I will keep loving though no one likes me
Because I can see love.

Love paints the world in color

Time After Time After Sign

In the end
It all comes down
to one thing:
You

Because no one should give more
than they are able
No one should give anything
If they don't want to

And I've been putting in 110
And just when I'm ready to give up
You decide to send me a cute text
That makes me decide that there's some hope

I don't want signs anymore
I just want this in words
Are you in the business of using me like everyone else thinks
Or are we friends like I know we are?

Tú eras mi mejor amigo. ¿Lo que estamos ahora?
