My name is Shannon, soon to be a sophmore at Cumberland High School

Here I am sitting on the beach again
Watching as the tide comes rolling in.
I miss the times when I looked into your eyes, A sacrifice I made for paradise

the cold wind that blows all the things i used to know
how could it play so fast never thought you'd be part of my past
would i trade it all again to get you out of my head?

And color the coast with your smile,
it's the most genuine thing
that i've ever seen.
I was so lost,
but now I believe.

For a lack of better
Words to say
All I said was goodnight
Once again, in self-defence
I wont sleep a wink
To prevent dreaming of you

I'm falling out of style with the current way things are
The things that make conforming hard
I'm falling out of control and you just can't stop me now
I'll .f.i.g.h.t. as long as time allows

Fill me up with False Hope
Cause I wish the world that i wasnt me
With no direction at all
Im loosing faith in everything

Out on the front porch, watching the cars as they go by, Eighteen blue, twenty one grey, Looking ahead for the first time that we could drive, Out on our own, To speed away

Sometimes it's embarrassing to talk to you
to hold a conversation with the only one who sees right through
this version of myself i try to hide behind
i'll bury my face because my disgrace will leave me terrified

Sometimes I think I am out of my league
And then sometimes I think I can dream
Sometimes I wish I could be the one fish
That you choose out of all in the sea

The Friday sun bears down again
As we drive with our friends
And on these longest days we spend
All the time trying to pretend
That our stories could be true
Our chance to be cool
The setting sun says the day is through
If only we knew...

You’ve made a lasting impression
And if it doesn’t feel right
Then I just can’t go wrong
I’ve been sleeping with the lights on
So if I wake in the night
Your picture is clearly in sight

And you can tell me
exactly what you need
and we can talk all night (we can talk all night)
and i will sing you lullabies (i will sing you lullabies)
not in every arrow is pointed straight at your heart
sorry for the time i said too much
i was so afraid that you would fall out of touch

Please tell me you're just feeling tired
'cause if it's more than that I fear that I might break,
Out of touch out of time,
Please send me anything but signals that are mixed,
'cause I can't read your rolling eyes

Sing me something soft,
Sad and delicate,
Or loud and out of key,
Sing me anything

Looking back at sunsets on the Eastside
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things slide by so carelessly

Are we growing up or just going
d
o
w
n
It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
Take our tears and put them on ice
I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light


Looking in your eyes
I see a paradise
This world that I found
Is too good to be true.
Standing here beside you
I want so much to give you
This love in my heart
That I'm feeling for you~

Remember all the times you let me walk you to class
You would kiss my cheek I'd never have to ask
You're going away in late september
But here's a thanks for a summer I will always remember

Do you remember the time when you and i were fine, hiding under the apple tree there was no one but you and me, we would hide from passing cars and we would have the summer stars and we were better then then we'd ever been before, you came back to me after walking out my door, you would call me on the phone before you even got home, without me you said you were all a.l.o.n.e

New York City streets with friends by your side
Telling stories in words who've left us b.e.h.i.n.d
All the things we'll never say
Leaving like puddles in the rain

There exists a melody
that just might change your mind
oh, if only I knew the key
to sing to make you mine

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.
So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.
It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.
It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life
