Where Did All My Money Go?

Where did all my money go?
Could it have grown legs and walked out my door?
Last night I was rich, but now I'm broke
Dammit where oh where did my money all go?

I was singing' and dancing, walking on the street
Little did i know, i was in for a treat
2 blocks from home and whom should i meet?
My friend Freddy who's always going 'beep beep beep'

Never Enough

(Girl)
On a warm and lonely night
I’m waiting for a call
Yes or no, will solve my plight
But darling don’t take too long
Cos I’ve been waiting all along
Oh I’ve been waiting for so long

(Boy)
Why? Why did you have to lie?
Why did you have to cry?
You make me lose my mind
Why? Why make us drift apart?
Why’d you go and break my heart
I should have known from the start
Ooooh I was never enough

Minutes

A wise man said it aint that hard
To live with all your heart and soul
Just be straight up and true to yourself

If its love u want or a dream you chase
Just open up ur mind and be open to change
You will conquer it all if u try

In a dark and lonely room somewhere
Don't get lost in ur own despair
There's a reason that u are there.

Scar & Release

Underneath a lifeless sky
You hurt, I cry

Memories of a coloured past
Haunt you, I stand by

Whispers forgotten
Boundaries crossed
Life has no meaning
Without you, I’m lost

What I Want Inside Me… Is You

Happy 2012 folks! I started my new year with a new song! Gonna love this year for sure ;)

(Girl)
I don’t want no gucci bags
Nor shoes that touch the sky
I don’t need no studded finger
Nor drugs to make me high

While men have come and gone
No no, nobody could last the night
It’s only you my baby
Oh yes, who woo’d me right

Chasing Stars

I've been waiting for a life time
For the world to see
A girl so shy and shiny
With all her powers unleashed

No more waiting on the benches
No more opportunities lost
I'll keep my eyes wide open
And make the most of most

If we had 2 extra hours to a day,
There will always be someone to steal it away

Like if my Majestic Mother had 2 extra hours to her day
She'd keep reminding me of my mistakes, while all i say is "Okay".

If my Bald Boss had 2 extra hours to his day
He'd be thrilled to save some money while I lose my overtime pay

If my Troublesome Teacher had 2 extra hours to her day
She'd still be watering her plants, while i grade her students the extra A's.

If my Boastful Boyfriend had 2 extra hours to his day
He'd keep it a secret and rush to a nearby town just to get laid

If my Foolish Friend had 2 extra hours to her day
She’d spend it on the phone gossiping to me when i really don't care

If my Deadly Dog had 2 extra hours to his day
I'd be cleaning his messes more often for he'd be eating more clay

If my Nosy Neighbour had 2 extra hours to her day
She'd want printed bio's of Joe, Jack, Jones, John and even Jerrad who's gay

But what if you had 2 extra hours to a day...
That no one can interrupt in any way?

Oh yes... if the Intelligent I had 2 extra hours to my day
I’d dream and dream and dream my day away

If only I could

Memories scattered on the floor
Don’t know why or what I’m looking for
But every once in a while, I’m standing here

Looking back, at what I’ve gained and lost
Found true love, but I still miss you the most
People say it’s funny after all these years

I can’t remember what we had
Or where we went wrong
But I know that things weren’t meant to be
Even after moving on
I still get flashes of
A friendship between you and me

Going Away

I may not have been the best
but neither were you
i may not have fullfilled your dreams
but neither did you make mine come true

for whatever it was,
we saw in each other
love for a lifetime,
faded through weather

even though i walked,
i sometimes feel the pain
while you put up an act
to take all the blame

we may never fully understand
how this came to be
life works in strange ways
is how i console me

i try to look for genuine times
and it surprises me that i can't find them quick
was it so long ago
that i can't even remember, why we clicked?

people change all the time
depending on situations
it was my fault that i didn't realise
when i was crossing my limitations

but what did you do
as i closed my heart
you never came knocking
until we grew apart

so stop blaming yourself
and don't blame me
if we are not together
this was how it was to be

i only wish,
i could look you in the eye
as much as it would hurt you
i'd be a friend by your side

cos we've been through a lot
and we should make that count
there were emotions and feelings
not just a book of accounts

maybe i am being selfish
maybe it would never work
or maybe i just like to complicate things
to proudly say my life is fucked

and then, on a day just like today
I could have called to say 
i hope you're good, 
and i'm sorry for going away

You Are Mine

Is it her long black shiny hair that falls down onto her shoulders
or her tender lips, that makes you smile?
Does her tiny dress make you can't take your eyes off her
guilty free you know she can make you dance

Do you like the sound of her heels as she makes her way closer to you
and her painted fingers on your stubbled cheek
Is it the sound of her voice that makes you lose your mind
That you can't figure out, she's a cheat?

And she'll steal your heart
Before she tears it apart
You'll be back at the start
In no time
