whisper to me tonight,
and tell me am i gonna be alright
just let loose of this sorrow that sits inside

sing me a lullaby,
so i can have sweet dreams tonight
help me remember it’s not always
so black or white (more…)

i’m turning twenty five years old next week.

usually i’m really good about birthdays, getting older, etc. but this year i’m a little leary about the big 2-5. aren’t i supposed to have accomplished a lot of what i want to accomplish by this age? i feel like i’m just getting started! i’m going to make a point to use this 25th year of my life to do things that i’ve always dreamed of doing, but never done. i’m finally going to finish a cd. i’m going to travel to a place i’ve never been, and maybe even try to go on a little tour. maybe only 3 or 4 dates, but not just shows in edmonton. i’m going to embrace twenty-five and make it a good year. yeah, okay i feel better now.

you picked me up from school today
you’re always waiting when i come in late
that’s just like you

you’re always there when i need your help
you know me better than i know myself
that’s just like you (more…)

i’m in a quiet room
with a heavy heart
i just want to be alone

i’ve been looking for the light
but it’s so dark
navigating on my own (more…)

i’m got a lump in my throat
and a thorn in my side
i’m tired of waiting for what i want
but it’s all about time
and am i really ready
for all that’s ahead of me
yeah it’s a little bit scary
but i think it’s supposed to be (more…)

i’m sitting here wondering
what is this feeling,
deep inside of my chest

there’s no way of knowing
exactly where i’m going,
but that hasn’t stopped me yet (more…)
