flight
But i know this is worth my time
and i've been so alone,
Since you've been gone
I try to remember the minutes of the day i made you mine.
And i will fly through winter to get to you,
i will fly for hours to feel you,
feel you again.

beauty in everything
Every day and every night
And i hear your voice singing me lullabies
When i'm losing my directions
And it gets me wondering,
What have i done to deserve
To see beauty in everything.
And you're the only friend i need,
So they can yell and they can leave
You blind me from everything else
And it got me wondering
What have i done to deserve
To see beauty in everything.
It could rain for days and days,
And dreams could slowly fade away,
I could walk miles all alone,
And when sadness invades every pore in my skin and each one of my bones,
I still wonder,
What have i done to deserve
To see beauty in everything,

vile
I wish i told them your name instead of giving them my lips
The little girl i am is the little girl only you can see
And it's a secret that you'll be the one to know by heart
It's a secret that when you feel like leaving will make you come back
And if you ever have a doubt,
You can kiss me again,
If you ever have a doubt,
try to taste me again
And around you, I try to move fast,
Clear up my mistakes with sincere smiles,
Make you caress my face when i feel vile.
Can't you let me be ashamed and give up?
can't you love me less?
Can you clean up my mess?
please clean me up when i'm a mess

The one people wish they could see,
we can own each other like if it was the only way,
Like if it was simply made to be,
we don't need much words to explain
The feelings that are our most precious joy
Our deepest pains
I know we can create our world
The one people wish they could live in
I know we can make this real
I know we can build a castle out of our feelings

my-self
In between winter and spring,
The day before i found
The most beautiful me i have ever seen.
Right by your frontdoor,
I left a little bit of me,
A few glances that you'll never feel
A few smiles that you'll never see.
Meet me in your backyard.
where i lost myself,
where i lost my beautiful self that night.
lundi 24 novembre 2008
i thought my heart would get stronger
and i made myself believe that it would get better.
But i still shake when the sun comes down,
I still lose control when you're hard to find,
the minutes before last call still make me lose my mind.
Do they see you shining like i do?
And when they know you're with me, do they want to steal you,
steal you, steal you
away from me.
Because the blurry streets around you,
are not the ones that i see,
Is it easy to forget, that i make you happy
when they try to steal you, steal you,
away from me.
Every night i learn to spell,
my ennemy's name,
Every night i learn to spell
the name of my closest ennemy,
j e a l o u s y.
never tried
it probably doesn't hurt as much as it should
and since we both know the beautiful days are far gone
there's point in thinking of what went wrong,
And i don't regret a second spent by you
See I don't clearly remember being by your side,
You fell asleep knowing i'd never be yours
I fell asleep dreaming of goodbyes.
I can only blame myself, i knew it all along
You were alone and i was lost
I needed to kiss, you needed to touch.
We never tried to survive,
we never tried to get through more than one night,
no, we never tried to survive,
no, this is why, this is why we could never fight.
dimanche 23 novembre 2008
You really can't let me go home scared
Walking in crowded streets
It could all desappear when i forget your face
It could all fade away when you lose your touch
Lose your touch on me,
and as bad as i believe the sky wrote this story
As bad as i know you'll always feel me,
I'm terrified of how my heart stops beating when you say this.

jeudi 20 novembre 2008
But they'll never use words as well as you do,
The wall i built between me and the world
Was made so you can walk right through
I don't think you know how beautiful you are
How your pain runs through my veins
How i feel you being far
How you are the brightest of every star.
You are precious,
You are a winter night wrapped in white sheets with a fragile glass of wine,
I think the shape of your lips was drawn to fit with mine.
mercredi 19 novembre 2008
play with me, please?
And i see i make you lose your mind
Sometimes i make you waste heartbeats
Often i play too much and waste your time
But i know that if you hold my hand tonight
You won't let go for a little while,
And If you hold it tight enough
I promise to stop running around

travelling soul
You lost your mind, you lost your place
You're a body without a beating heart,
A simple pretty face.
And the way they see you slowly destroys you
Because you know you start to believe it's true,
Where did your soul go?
almost
Secrets and lies
Almost whispering love and goodbyes
Do you feel my body shiver
Do you feel it falling apart
When silences are building in between us.
jeudi 13 novembre 2008
not yours
And whisper the sweet words you wish to say
You can't reach as far as my heart
Did you ever think i could just walk away?
The life you live will never bring me back to you
You lost me when you lost the innocent part of you
So don't touch me
Please don't look at me like that
You will never open your eyes
So wide
That you will simply stare at me,
Simply realize
i'm fine without you.
bed time story
That once you met her, you just couldn't forget,
The way her lips move and the lines on her hands,
But you knew, you knew you'd have to leave her again.
It didn't take much,
It didn't take a minute, for you to have her,
She was scared of your touch
She knew you'd chase her and you'd be the first.
The days you were gone, she wondered if you'd come back
She knew it wouldn't get better
She knew she was falling fast,
but she wouldn't, just wouldn't let go.
She would fall asleep by another one's side
Because she knew she was still the one sleeping in your bed tonight,
And every smile you gave her, you know she kept it,
Every places you went, you knew she'd be here
If you only knew that luck has nothing to do with it,
That every breath was put towards it,
you would never doubt her passion,
You would cherish her heart every single second
You would take care of it through days and seasons.

what am i doing to myself.
seems like i enjoy pushing myself to the limits, let's see how well i can deal with pain.
dimanche 9 novembre 2008
essential
Hold my hand because i can't walk straight
But don't, please don't blame anything,
Anything else than you
I can't help but stare,
Stare right through you.
And you're the beauty i find during my lonely nights
When you're gone away and i'm too tired to fight,
I still draw the lines of your face with my lost memories,
I don't think i have enough blood to bleed,
To feel bad for myself sitting here.
What if i do need you to breathe easy?
You're essential for a soul like mine,
You're a necessity for a girl like me.
half way there
And i know i don't make it easy for you
To stand close
To stay close to me
But please shut your eyes and still see,
that i play games,
Play games by myself that only make sense to me.
When i'm lost and begging for you,
Keep the feeling, keep me.
mardi 28 octobre 2008
let me let me let me.
Am I still laying here,
I wouldn’t know,
The world has stopped spinning
The minute I felt you close
Let me be a little bit of a dreamer
a little bit
And fall
I know I wasn’t the first
But trust me I’ll be the last
if you want me like I want you
If you kiss me the way I would kiss you
Let me be in love.
Let me let me let me
Don’t wake up yet
Let me let me let me
Watch you
Let me let me let me
Imagine you mine
Let me let me let me
Think everything is fine
Let me find out what’s love
And let me let me let me fall.

feel cold
Standing in the street and I see you
Run, don’t stop running
I’d rather sit in the winter cold all night
I’d rather wait until they turn on the city lights
Than to look away.
If there was insecurity living in my head then it’s far gone
I’ll never be as lonely as when you’re out of my sight
Tell me it’s okay for me to fight.
It first started with a touch telling a million stories
Are you still afraid of it.
Don’t let me be cold again,
I’m standing in the same street,
I’m waiting, staring straight ahead,
I know you’ll meet me if I can count to ten.

fall, fall, fall.
It was about 6 pm and the air was cold, not too cold, just enough for my skin to react. I looked at people around me and they were all walking so fast, everything was going so slow for me.
The sky was blue and the trees were turning orange. And it was as if i was just discovering the world for the first time. Nothing mattered, nothing controlled me, nothing owned me. I was just a girl sitting on a bench. Just a body. My mind was far gone. All i could experience was this feeling. It reminded me how i felt the last few nights before christmas, in France, when i was still a little girl. I remember walking in the streets, holding my father's hand, looking at people's faces while they were buying presents, and i knew something amazing was about to happen. I was fascinated. I remember the cold air on my face. I remember knowing things were going to be good, because everything felt right, right at that moment.

if i dance for hours...
i'll probably feel better.
if i smoke all day,
maybe i'll regret?
Could i ever feel dirtier?
way, way too silent
your voice controls me. i swear the world stands still when i hear you sing.
but can i do it?- i don't know
but can i let this go? -no.
and if you're not here when i wake up, will i get through the day?
If you're gone for days and days.
don't let me be scared, no you just shouldn't.
i'll hide so well, you'll never find me again..
dimanche 21 septembre 2008
help me breathe.
reach for my hand
hurt me so i can feel
So i can feel alive again
warm me up
but don't touch me.
Dream you know the words to calm me down,
do you honestly believe you're exactly what i was trying to find?
I dare you to look into my eyes
when i'm losing control
losing control?
have i ever, ever, had any.

such lonely hours.
Too much time to think.
are we thinking the same thing right at this minute?
you tell me.
you told me.
say it again tonight.

call me
And we have smiled, we have cried, we have yelled and fought
We have laughed, we whispered and made up.
We have tried to find excuses
We have chased each other until we were both out of breath
We made our story beautiful
We made our story unforgettable.
I tried to be distant
I tried to let you go
But three years are not enough to get you out of my head,
and there are so many words that i'm thinking
that haven't been said
There are millions of promises you could never tell me,

on the road
I also wonder how difficult it makes things.
The feeling of missing someone is the feeling i know best.
Certainly because i am always attracted to musicians, and musicians are known to be on the road.
I wonder how it feels to meet people every night, to sleep in another place every night, to travel to another town every day.
The truth is? I am jealous.
Things that are temporary are always the most precious.
what i love the most
that's all
let down-go
it might feel right tonight
but really, it's nothing at all, really, it's not real, really, it's not worth anything.
open your beautiful eyes.
and if i'm wrong? try harder.
i'm letting go.
lundi 1 septembre 2008
foolish game.
you say if you walk away, then i'll try to find you.
i hate that you know.
I make the rules.
just not in your bedroom.
why did i even start playing.
about our bed;
let's share pillows.
I want to see coffee stains
I want to create our smell.
Let's lay here for days,
Late for work and late for class
let's touch and fight
let's talk all night.
Play with my hair
while i stare at you
Let's get a small bed
So i never feel far away from you ever again.
Let's make memories.
Passion at its best
Every thing you say, create, write, sing, fascinates me. God, falling in love never really meant anything real before i met you. People always say "when it's the right person, you'll know". And they might have been just right.
I knew the day we met.
the first hour,
the first time you made me smile
and the first time you put your hands on me.
Something was different. I can't say this is going to last forever because it affects us so much that it scares the hell out of us and we could both get destroyed by a foolish misunderstanding or a mistake..but what i can say, what i can promise you is that from now on, i will do my best to make it last.
You make me feel.
You make me feel happy, lucky and all the most precious feelings in the world.
But you can also make me feel sad, my saddest, hurt, empty.
Because you can do anything to me. You own my mind and my body. You control me.
I am so passionate about you. It's slowly killing me.
And i'm loving every second of it.
lundi 25 août 2008
kiss her,
If it feels right to you, there are chances it feels right to her too.
sincerely,
The hardest part is to not let these butterflies fly away.

what this summer brought
i hate growing old.
This was the summer i realized that i could not be a little girl anymore.
I make decisions, stupid ones.
Sometimes i learn, sometimes i don't, i can't lie.
I'm still a little girl no matter what. I need to be taken care of, and i wonder who will take care of me when they'll leave me. This summer brought so many insecurities,
do i leave everything again? Can i leave everything again,
what i now call home, who i now call my bestfriends?
The answer seems so obvious until i get to the next thought,
can i let my family go? my family.
And i'll never hear: don't worry they're just a few miles away.
Try to deal with an ocean away.
I feel so torn in between two worlds. Always have, always will. Being blamed for not wanting to live where i should live is the worse feeling i have ever experienced. I always had to leave people i loved, they never understood. I just wish i never had to do this again.
