- Goodnightttttt
- You don't think my blog is great
- For my contemporary literature class
- A junior in my school is flirting with me
- Someone go laser tagging with me
- Hey I'm a Nana
- This past month was awful
- 'Cause I'll be there in the back of your mind
- Since my heart is golden
- When life leaves you high and dry
- I make the most of all this stress
- You're hard to hug, tough to talk to
- Aren't you somethin' to admire?
- How can you see into my eyes
- It's not like I'm invisible
- I can't get these memories out of my mind
- Take me out tonight
- There's something in your eyes
- Lighting strikes inside my chest
- Now that he's back in the atmosphere
- On the days I can't see your eyes
- Your fingertips across my skin
- Love of mine, someday you will die
- How the time passed away?
- Chest to chest; nose to nose
- If you only knew, I'm hanging by a thread
- Stay for tonight, if you want to
- Someone once told me that you have to choose
- Something always brings me back to you
- The power lines went out, and I am all alone
- I remember the nights we spent under city lights
- Another late night, driving around
- Don't go to bed yet, love
- Last year's wishes are this year's apologies
- When you're alone, do you think of me?
- I can take the rain on the roof
- I can feel his breath as he's sleeping next to me
- I thought I saw a man brought to life
- Hello there, the angel from my nightmare
- I can see it in your eyes, you're scared
You’ve gotta swim, swim for your life

Swim for the music that saves you when you’re not so sure you’ll survive. You gotta swim, and swim when it hurts. The whole world is watching; you haven’t come this far to fall off the Earth. The currents will pull you away from your love; just keep your head above. I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn. Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun, cracking the armor. I swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun. Choking on salt water, I’m not giving in—I swim. You gotta swim through nights that won’t end. Swim for your family, your lovers, your sisters and brothers and friends. Yeah you gotta swim for wars without cause. Swim for these lost politicians who don’t see their greed is a flaw. You gotta swim, swim in the dark. There’s no shame in drifting; feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark. Yeah you gotta swim, don’t let yourself sink. Just find the horizon. I promise you it’s not as far as you think.
