Live My Dreams By John Carter
You wonder why I lie awake
Or wrestle in my sleep
When every waking hour I make
More promises to keep
I wonder if you understand
Or even care at all
The life I hold within my hands
Could crumble, break, or fall
I can't sleep
So I can't dream
What to do with the time inbetween
I live to lose another day
This light within me fades away
And I try so hard to live my dreams
Because it seems I never sleep
You wonder why I'm up all night
Or talking in my sleep
I never stop the thoughts that might
Become just what I need
I wonder if you grasp it now
Or do you just not know
The world you live in is not how
Reality's dice roll
I can't sleep
So I can't dream
What to do with the time inbetween
I live to lose another day
This light within me fades away
And I try so hard to live my dreams
Because it seems I never sleep...

Over You By John Carter
I’ve been sleeping my way to the middle
And it isn’t a comforting trend
So I’m out the back door for the last time
Cause I can’t even call you my friend
Slipping down the ladder
Of what does and doesn’t matter
Why am I not important to you?
Searching for a way
To make it better every day
But if you can’t believe that it’s true
I won’t cry over you
I’ve been lying my way to the bottom
And it isn’t as bad as it seems
But I’m losing ground to the truth now
Cause I don’t even know what it means
Slipping down the ladder
Of what does and doesn’t matter
Why am I not important to you?
Searching for a way
To make it better every day
But if you can’t believe that it’s true
I won’t cry over you
I’ve been pushing my way to the surface
I’ve been down so far I can’t breathe
It’s a long hard trip to the top now
Stuck deciding to fight or just leave
Slipping down the ladder
Of what does and doesn’t matter
Why am I not important to you?
Searching for a way
To make it better every day
But if you can’t believe that it’s true
I won’t cry over you
