Element101 - "Future Plans Undecided" (TND1161)
1.
"Between Now And Then"
i
wonder why when i was young everyone seemed like they had a smile,
now it seems like it's the opposite and i wonder
i remember lying in my bed, angry that i had to go to sleep,
now sleep is much too precious to buy makes me wonder why
when waking up feels like a dream,
what happened between now and then?
somewhere between now and then, my worlds have turned around,
what happened between now and then, it makes you wonder,
somewhere between now and then my worlds have turned around
what happened between now and then?
i always had to find a cure
to save me from my life of boredom
and now it's like there's never any time
to do anything,
today i try to make my mind follow after practicality,
people can conveniently forget
that i'm growing up
when growing up seems so unreal
what happened between now and then?
2. "Leaving
Me Before The Spring Semester"
i
have no concept of why you left because
you failed to show me what was on your mind and now
every time the phone rings i wonder if you're calling me
to say you're coming back again, but i'm still waiting.
i know i acted cold when you said good-bye,
i didn't know how i could say good-bye to you
i hope you know that i support every single thing you do,
it's just so hard when someone's trying to fill your shoes
3. "In My Heart And On My Mind"
sometimes
it gets just so hard to realize what i'm doing
here cause i feel like i'm sticking out so much but you're still
in my heart and on my mind,
you're always there to remind me
sometimes i think that no one could ever understand me
but i forget that you've been where i am many times
you're in my heart and on my mind
you're always there to remind me
oh, my heart can't understand
how my mind can't feel
when memories fade are they still real?
4. "A Galaxy Apart"
you
know i stayed up all night in the dimmest light
everyone else was outta sight
i had so much to confide to your heart and you know well it seemed so wide, i
can't see you,
but i know you're there inside while i'm standing here outside and you know to
you i have never lied.
i
opened my eyes and there it was,
your face shining above
now it's time to close my eyes,
finally kiss the stars goodnight,
tomorrow when the sun comes up
you'll be there smiling in the light
when it gets real dark and when i am alone,
something starts to glow inside me
it starts to glow inside of me
5. "So Unpredictable"
these
are my after thoughts of when i am far beyond wishing,
there's something missing,
no longer focusing on everything of which revolves around me,
i can see clearly
logically
speaking it's so unpredictable
everything is so much easier said than done
there's more to believing we must find,
other way of knowing to keep us growing
establishment of how you feel and hold on to what you've found yourself,
resentment's going
logically
speaking it's so unpredictable
everything is so much easier said than done,
show
me don't tell me make it easy for me to see
if you present something now that it's real
sleep sweet my darling, don't you cry,
cause tomorrow i'll buy you the answers why
6. "Keeping Secrets"
writing
in my diary right before i go to sleep,
trying to collect my thoughts of which are all in disarray,
i write down love and hate and everything that's in between,
thoughts of incompetence found their way into my routine
secrets, concealed between the pages
are the lens through which i see
every time that i look back i wish i acted differently,
but when i remember then there is no other way i see,
following you follow me discovering who we will be,
i see in you what you see in me that makes us only the lonely
i want you to want to know me i want you to call my name,
wish that you would know there's more than meets the eye there's more to find,
i want you to start asking questions i want you to understand,
there's so many people around and once again i'm getting lonely
7.
"Some Chances Are Worth Taking"
you'll
always be inside my thoughts cause i can keep things perfect there the way it
could have been,
if this life's a game then i wonder if we could ever win
i don't understand a thing you said sometimes you seem so far away from me
i always live in tomorrow you live in today,
but you found your way inside my world and it seems you're there to stay
we both sat down and then we made a wish and i looked at you, you looked at me
and then i said good-bye,
we both sat down and then we made a wish and i looked at you, you looked at me
your eyes said more than you know,
we both sat down and then we made a wish and i looked at you, you looked at me
my wish just didn't come true
8.
"Jersey Never Seemed So Long"
it
took me three hours just to drive down to the shore,
new jersey seemed so long i couldn't wait anymore,
those were the best times that i've had all year,
seems like it took forever but we finally got there
it was a long time before i got all of my friends in the water,
but this time when memories are made i won't let it pass me by
i love the sunshine, i'm gonna make this day mine
and when the day had grown so dark we ventured on a moonlit walk,
after we had gone on all the rides i saw the starlight in your eyes
the moon's so big and bright, this is the place to be tonight
9.
"Preconceived Notions"
i
decided that if i could do things on my own then i'd be fine,
i woke up everyday in the pursuit of my own happiness,
every night i fell asleep unsatisfied throughout the day,
when i closed my eyes i said, tomorrow is another day
when will i learn that i can't do a thing,
nothing at all, on my own,
there is so much more in store for me than what i can make
so now i'm evaluating what exactly i have done,
i know that there is so much more that i wanted to become,
all i know is that i'm changing every second every day,
but there is the truth that is the same as it was yesterday
every time i close my eyes i see how it should be,
only things are going differently
when will i learn that i can't do a thing,
nothing at all, on my own,
there is so much more in store for me than what i can make on my own
10.
"Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid"
Instrumental
song
11. "Only In Pictures"
it's
kind of funny how it works but as soon as i left all the days that we spent came
back to me,
so i sat down real still with your letter in my hand and i thought of that one
night long ago
when i ran into the park when it was dark,
i didn't know if you could find me in the night,
i got so scared and i went running after you
i still remember how you look
it's in the pictures of my mind,
i hold your hand inside my head
i hold your smile in my dreams
it's strange enough to think that there's a million miles keeping me from
sitting next to you,
well i know i can't drive and i can't walk to you,
do you remember one night long ago
12. "You Never Cease To Amaze Me"
where
can i find some peace of mind,
the line that they're drawn is way too fine it isn't mine,
sometimes the things that we have seen
we wish so much that we had never had to see,
when i sit back and when i am alone,
i try not to act the way that i was shown
just because you don't see the other side of the moon
doesn't mean it's not there time travels slow but maybe soon
when i'm with you it makes so much sense
there is no question that you can't give the answer to,
you hold my heart and you have given me a start,
where would i be if you had never loved me?
all the special things we can't see with our eyes,
they're the underlying meanings in our life,
even though i can't see you with my eyes,
God you are the meaning in my life
