oo6.) Never Gonna Give You Up, Never Gonna Let You Down

Wish I May (Starlight)
©ADVenture Records; 6/4/9; 3.11 am
Ten minutes past the wishing time, I missed it again
Would it have helped?
Would it have helped?
Fickle as I am I may have wished away the pain
It's all I've felt
It's all I've felt

And I've wished on stars and numbers
And I've wished on days and names
I've wished for quiet slumbers
But the Gods are playing games cause

I'm still crying
And I'm still trying
To clear the mess away
To just get through this day
I'm still sighing
And I'm still lying
To myself and to you
What have I put us through?
Baby, I wish I knew

Only three leaves on my clover, I've been searching through this field
Can't catch my breath
Can't catch my breath
Pulling petals off roses, the steam is all I have to wield
There's nothing left
There's nothing left

And I've wished on things and places
And I've wished on wells and air
I've wished that time erases
But the Gods don't seem to care cause

I'm still crying
And I'm still trying
To clear the mess away
To just get through this day
I'm still sighing
And I'm still lying
To myself and to you
What have I put us through?
Baby, I wish I knew

The first star I saw was too far away
I forgot the little rhyme I was supposed to say
Candles only come round once a year
Too long to wait, too hard to take and I fear

I'm still crying
And I'm still trying
To clear the mess away
To just get through this day
I'm still sighing
And I'm still lying
To myself and to you
What have I put us through?
Baby, I wish I knew

Oh, baby, I wish I knew

This is the most emo/sad/slow song I have ever written. Been near eight months since I've written a song at all. Despite it's tone, I am quite pleased with this. I've vented and I feel empowered now. Upwards to the stars from here. <3

  1. Though it came from a sad place I like it and after reading it I feel much better myself, that and the talk we had today. I can relate to the song very well I have had some of those thoughts lately myself.
