I'm Proud

I'm Proud
1. I'm Proud


I'm Proud
(verse 1)
lonely, and always pitifully longing
that was my past until this beautiful bright day
I'll be embracing you tonight
and always as long as you want
I'm proud, through the future and since our heydays
look how far you've come to get here
the city's sky was stormy, now it's clear
you'll grow to be as tall as the buildings
free from all the hurt and the raining
soon you'll be back to normal
scars faded, time healed, now you're above it all
be the gold when you feel like silver

when I began to find pride in myself
is probably the fated night that I met you
a little chilly and a lot of shy
couldn't break out of your shell
no matter how hard you try
waking up one sunny morning
you decided to go out and join them
tired of being sad and wanting to be happy
you became a flower even with your broken stem

(chorus)
I'm proud of the things you've accomplished
and the living that you had to survive
you were put in a cold land and you thrived
you found nourishment from God when you were deprived
what's your secret, is it something you can tell?
how did you go from broken to being alive and well?
free from all the hurt and the raining
soon you'll be back to normal
scars faded, time healed, now you're above it all
be the gold when you feel like silver
(end chorus)

(verse 2)
sometimes it was hard to crawl out of bed
putting on your clothes took all that you had
spending your days putting on a brave face
there's no more of that, you got it out of your space
I'll be there to hold your hand
it's sunny with crisp air, it'll be rainy some days more
still you're on top of a skyscraper
strong as bronze after years of feeling like paper

(bridge)
lonely, and always pitifully longing
that was my past until this beautiful bright day
I'll be embracing you tonight
and always as long as you want

(chorus)
I'm proud, until the future and since our heydays
look how far you've come to get here
the city's sky was stormy, now it's clear
you'll grow to be as tall as the buildings
free from all the hurt and the raining
soon you'll be back to normal
scars faded, time healed, now you're above it all
be the gold when you feel like silver
I'm proud of the things you've accomplished
and the living that you had to survive
you were put in a cold land and you thrived
you found nourishment from God when you were deprived
what's your secret, is it something you can tell?
how did you go from broken to being alive and well?
free from all the hurt and the raining
soon you'll be back to normal
I'm proud
(end chorus)

Mystery Butterfly

Mystery Butterfly 1. Mystery Butterfly Mystery Butterfly (verse 1) open your shiny eyes in the silent night I swooped down into the mystery sneaking in alleyways without any sound of footsteps crouching my back in seductive black cat pose the moonlight carries a shadow on its back of my silhouette "come here" it smiles as it beckons to me it's tempting a contour of desire squirms in the sleepless city it wanders in the guise of a guardian angel to me it holds piece of love without a place to go in its arm as if they're precious treasures as you fall to sleep blissfully are you somewhere having a good dream ignorantly being happy as anyone would want the starry sky kisses you it's time for good children to go to bed to sleep (chorus) don't look at me, don't catch me don't try to be what's become of me I'm a butterfly who got lost in the dark freely singing with monochrome wings no one can see I'm hiding away in your heavy heart (end chorus) ...

Unrequited Finally

Unrequited Finally 1. Unrequited Finally Unrequited Finally (verse 1) you and I together made a solemn unspoken oath a secret never told is the very one best kept I shy away when our eyes suddenly meet like I've got a secret identity that I've just got to keep I long to get out of here and feel the spring air at night I can dream only of your long hair we snuck off when no one was looking now you act like you don't know me what is all of this? (chorus) I like that, but why do I like that? my first fantasy and my last taste of love my feelings awakened and fell from above my heart burst from happiness like an attack I like that, but why do I like that? you moved on, but I'm still stuck just chop it up to being romantically sick this is what's called unrequited love finally (end chorus) (verse 2) the lips you kissed are forever sealed shut but they pinned me against the tiled bathroom wall your friends raised eyebrows and asked questions you said not to worry because ...
