Lyrics:
Story's over again
It's like I'm losing a friend
I know I'll be okay
But how, I don't know the way

Seasons change, it's how it goes
But please before you go

Take me out of the cold
To the places we know
Give me something to hold
Another memory to know
Before you go

Something's dying inside
The part of me you supply
I don't recall what it's like
Before you stepped in my life

We both know how this goes
So please before you go

Take me out of the cold
To the places we know
Give me something to hold
Another memory to know
Before you go

And I'm scared that you're not afraid of
Me slipping through your hands like smoke
Forgetting me and all that I am
Like I am of you

Please don't forget me
Please don't replace me

Take me out of the cold
All I ever do is hurt
Give me something to hold
Another memory to know

Give me your hand to hold
Just an end to the show

Before you go

Before You Go

You are my home

I believe we all deserve joy
We give all to love
We give all for love
‘Cause that’s what life is all about

We give give give give all
You give your all to me 
I didn’t know there was more
I didn’t know I didn’t know I needed it
I needed you for sure
I found out there’s more to this life
All the good all the bad
With you it all makes sense

I look into your eyes
They make me feel at peace
You hold me in your arms
How good that feels
With you I have no fears
You make me feel so alive
Now everything is clear
You are my home
You are my home

I thought you exist only in my mind
I thought I’d never meet you
But you are real 
and you are here next to me
When I figured out it’s you
 I can see you I can touch 
I can feel you
I can’t believe I finally found you
I finally found you

I look into your eyes
They make me feel at peace
You hold me in your arms
How good that feels
With you I have no fears
You make me feel so alive
Now everything is clear
You are my home
You are my home
You are my all

Uuuu... I finally found you
Uuuu... you are my all

Jo's Song

Words travel fast through games of telephone
Mixed messages and crossin' signals and never rest
So I headed out West

I walked past the place where we used to go
And I felt the ghost of that haunt leave my soul
Now I'm light as air

Oh can't catch me now
Now I'm goin' with the Redwoods growin' so
High, high, high, high, high

Oh can't remember it now
All the ways I drowned
With the Pacific tide I rise, I rise
Rise with the sun

I looked back on last time
boxes packed but I left them all behind
And I breath goodbye

A step away is a step toward
The freedom I've been searching for all my life
Just open road and sky

Oh can't catch me now
Now I'm goin' with the Redwoods growin' so
High, high, high, high, high

Oh can't remember it now
All the ways I drowned
With the Pacific tide I rise, I rise
Rise with the sun

I'm takin' the long way
I'm takin' the scenic route
I'm takin' every change
I'm takin' my girls to dance
I'm givin' this my all
I'm giving way to the trust fall
I am new again

Oh can't catch me now
Now I'm goin' with the Redwoods growin' so
High, high, high, high, high

Oh can't remember it now
All the ways I drowned
With the Pacific tide I rise, I rise
Rise with the sun

Beautiful Daydream

Real Anymore

Circus Games 
By Kate Prendergast

These circus games
Are hard to play sometimes
No matter what the rules are
Roll the dice and you might come out unscathed
Or you might have gone too far.

Sometimes I feel like I am screaming
But nobody wants to hear me

Whispers in the garden
Ignite the fire with the flames
Trying to laugh a little harder
And not let them see all of the pain

These circus games 
Are hard to play sometimes
Doesn’t matter if you are winning
It knocks you down until the bottom 
Seems like there is no point in fighting.

I know I shut the door
But I am just trying to find 
Something worth fighting for

Whispers in the garden
Ignite the fire with the flames
Trying to laugh a little harder
And not let them see all of the pain

Everybody’s trying to rule the world
Nobody’s waiting for their turn
Everyone’s pushing past the lines
I’m not trying to rule the world
I’m just trying not to burn

Whispers in the garden
Ignite the fire with the flames
Trying to laugh a little harder
And not let them see all of the pain
See all the Pain
See all the Pain

Circus Games

an unusual upload from me... but here's a verse I added to monsta x's 'the dreaming'. I've been having fun writing original verses to some of my favorite songs. 

my lyrics:
(I was lost chasing my dream)
Show me how to spread my wings and fly
Past galaxies, ’til the end of time
(Looked around to find it’s only me)
Will you smile like it was worth the ride
As if shadows have never blocked your light
Did you ever look back
Did you ever stop trying
Did you ever think to reflect on how fast you’re flying away
Oh tell me, oh tell me

If I had a verse on MONSTA X 'The Dreaming'

I had this song underway when I brought it to Josh Leo and Phoenix Mendoza around 2006. They jumped onboard (so glad they did!) and we finished it for Phoenix's project. Josh produced this and Phoenix is singing.
