Rock Songs and Lullabies
Rock Songs and Lullabies
Can you tell the difference between
Rock songs and lullabies
Or is the music driving
Our ears blind
Heads down, all over the wheel
Teardrops and memories yet to come true
And we pray
That always
We’ll find that time when everything was simple
Everything was like a lullaby
When everything we knew, was singing cause we meant it too
Those twinkling stars, I wonder what you are
But I miss you
I miss you
I think I found the difference between
Heart throbs and butterflies
I’m wondering if you’d like to
Dance with me
Too fast, we’re falling alone
Never thought this start would be the end
And we pray
That always
So can you take me back
Before our adolescence tore
Us apart
So can you take me back
When you and I were everything
That made sense at all
So can you tell the difference between
Rock songs and lullabies
Tonight

In The Afterglow
In The Afterglow
We stood in the afterglow
Distant lights shine from the windows
I laughed as you would sing that song I wrote
We danced, lay backs to the ground
Watched the twinkling of stars all around
You whispered you wouldn’t trade this, for anything
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
We had a ball of a time
One kiss I’ll pretend that you’re mine
Traded secrets there’s one you’ll never know
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Can’t you see we’ve got this one night on our hands (D, Cadd)
Even then, we’ll make it never end (D, Em, Cadd)
Someday, we’ll understand why people just don’t understand (G, D, Asus, Cadd)
A thing, about you and me (G, D, Em, Cadd)
One day, we’ll talk about the things that made us roll with glee (G, D, Asus, Cadd)
And that’ll, be ten years ago (G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
You said: after all we’ve been through (Asus)
I’ll never be the same (Cadd, Dsus)
Since I met you
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Since I met you, things haven’t been the same
But you’re the one thing that never changes
Make a promise you’re the company I’ll keep
The best part was falling asleep with you
As we let our dreams come true
In our hearts there’ll always be our story to tell
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Na,na,na,na-na
Na,na,na,na-na
(x4)
Bridge
Here we are, friends
Don’t forget, where
We came from, then
We know, now
What it means, to be
More than we, can be
You and me, we are
Everything
(x2)
(We just don’t care, anymore
We just don’t give, a thought what for
And time will stand, that I’m sure
This moment in Arveture
Be my friend, give it all
Be the strength, that makes me sure
And all I am, is all you are
This monument in Arveture)
(G, D, Em, Cadd)
hahaha. i borrowed part of Arveture's lyrics for the writing of this song cos it's pretty relevant. one of my non-emo songs. =)

In Your Pain
In Your Pain
I thought I knew, love, well till I read Your little book
And Your word to me it spoke, and took my breath away
In the darkest of hours, you still chose to light the way
For me
(G, Cadd, Em, Cadd)
So it came, like darkness in the rain
“Just give me a reason to be saved”
And there you answered every single prayer prayed
The ones for a saviour’s grace
You gave it all
When in your pain, you made everything
Okay
(Now everything’s okay)
(G, Cadd, Em, Cadd)
They thought they knew, you, well, when you sacrificed yourself
And though they couldn’t tell, you gave love anyway
As you hung there and died, there was one thing on your mind-
The world you came to save
(G, Cadd, Em Cadd)
And so it came, like darkness in the rain
You gave me a reason to be saved
Convinced me you’re not just a piece of history
More than just a precious memory
You gave it all
When in your pain, you made everything
Okay
(You made everything okay)
(G, Cadd, Em, Cadd)
Picture painted perfect, the one who knew no sin became sin (Am, C, G)
Was it really worth it? The greatest sacrifice the world has seen (Am, C, G, D)
And all we have to do is let him in (Am, Cadd)
And so you came, like sunshine in the rain
You are the reason I am saved
Forgave me for all the sins I’d carry to my grave
The ones I thought would never change
You gave it all
When in your pain, you made everything
And so you came, like sunshine in the rain
You are the reason I am saved
Forgave me for all the sins I’d carry to my grave
The ones I thought would never change
But in the pain I caused you
You saved me
(G, Cadd, Em, Cadd)

Cos You Cared
Cos You Cared
Verse 1
She came, she left
She woke up, I slept
She walked, and I knew I couldn’t stop her
I’m broken, again
This can’t be the end
I looked, and I knew I wouldn’t stop her
Cos I cared
Chorus
But everything has changed
Yeah everything has changed
What do I do now
When you’ve gone away
(It’s driving me insane
Well nothing’s been the same
Since you went home)
Verse 2
I miss, your breath
Your touch, your laugh
But most, of all you always being there
Cos you cared
Chorus-Bridge
Why’d you have to go
Why can’t you stay
Bridge
It’s over (stop thinking)
It’s over (stop feeling)
Over
A lifetime of the best
FIRST SONG OF 2009! YAY ME! haha. a tribute to those who feel that way about losing a loved one.

This is Love
This is Love
Verse 1
So whisper you’re with me
I’m not that strong without you anymore
I need a reason
To live up to everything they want
(F, C, Am, G)
Here’s a song about you
For someone who’s been there all the while
I’ll keep on believing
That with you I’ll be alright somehow
(F, C, Am, G)
Pre-Chorus
So I’ll take my promises,
And make every single count
I know I’m yours
Now it’s all so clear
You, me and one lonely cross
Oh, oh
(F, C, Am, G)
(F, C, G)
Chorus
There is something here with you so special I never want to lose (C, G, F, C, G)
I’ve found what my heart’s beating for, I think it’s got everything to do with you (C, G, Am, C, G)
Cos every time I try to work things out they never do, without you (F, C, Am, G)
So I guess (F)
No I’m sure, that (G)
This is Love (Am, G, F)
(You are Love)
Verse 2
Take me back that long ago
When I first truly fell in love with you
I know that feeling
Been that long since I’ve felt the way it feels
But today I come back
Lay aside the worst things I have done
There’s no better reason
Than for the One that’s loved me all the while
Bridge
So whisper you’re with me
I’m not that strong without you anymore
I need you badly
More than anything I’ve known before

Room for Two
Room for Two
Intro:
Just amazing, you’re amazing, we’re amazing (G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Verse 1:
A silence stands, in the hourglass at hand
A note that pens, I love you
A cup of coffee, for nights gone by I still can’t find the words
To say, to tell you (to tell you)
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Just how I feel (G, G/F#)
I feel you (Em, D)
Chorus
Feels like a landslide, no holding back
Like a rainbow, the colours blur
Like the answer, to the questions unanswerable
Like an ember, catching fire with a breeze, I know
You’ll always be that girl
With the love that changed my world
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Verse 2
The burning end, of the candle went
And darkness wins, but if I lose you
My world would tend, to disaster I’ll go crazy without you
It’s worse, so I’ll close my eyes and tell you
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Just how I feel (G, G/F#)
I feel you (Em, Cadd)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Just amazing, you’re amazing; we’re amazing (x4)
Rhyme and rhythm, we’ll sway to the music of angels
Wrong or right, all care about is you tonight.
And this is how it,
How it
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
Exit:
So if you want me, you have got me, there’s room for two
(G, G/F#, Em, Cadd)
a song for my one and only FWB! =D
