Letters to Michael

Subject: Letters to Michael Sat Aug 04, 2007 1:39 pm

Let me know that I've done wrong
When I've known this all along
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you

Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know

I'll keep you my dirty little secret
(Dirty little secret)
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
(Just another regret, hope that you can keep it)
My dirty little secret

Liking you more than I should,
Pete

Dear Copycat Pete,

Quick fix and heartbeats, gets me so easily
Now you got me on my knees
This will be the death of me
Tic tac, time goes by, hits me so suddenly
How you knock me off my feet
I'm the ~~Queen~~ King of Apologies

Now I'm fighting this feeling
But it never stops, never stops
I'm still waiting
And I'm stuck with this feeling
Will it ever stop, ever stop?
I keep trying

I blame no one, but myself
So honestly, is this how it's gonna be?
Tell me, who's the enemy?

Falling for you too (even though I know I shouldn't),
Michael

Dear Michael,

I chronicled the days you made me want to live
Memorized the way that it felt and then I turned it into this kiss
Tonight I’m wearing my best smile in hope to make me worth your while
I’ll be the best mistake you’ll ever make

From the lack of sleep and the bloodshot eyes
To the nervous kiss and the butterflies
Does this make any sense at all
he said, he said

Wanting to be the mistake you won't regret,
Pete

Dear Pete,

What's it gonna be
What's it gonna be, do you want me
What's it gonna be
What's it gonna be, do you want me
Is that even a question in your mind

So don't fuck me discontent
Like your love is spent
When I'm lying alone
Baby, where's your home
You're looking for me
It's all for free
I've got love to kill for my man of steel
Burning cold
Telling me no
You're burning cold
I can't let you go
No I can't let you go

What's it gonna be? Do you want me?
Michael

Dear Michael,

But I tell myself that I was doin' all right
There's nothin' left to do at night
But to go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

My love is the evenin' breeze touchin' your skin
The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early moonlight
And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
My love, the pleasure's mine

Wanting you more than you know,
Pete

Dear Pete,

My boyfriend's back, and you're gonna be in trouble
(Hey la, hey la, my boyfriend's back)
When you see him comin', better cut on the double
(Hey la, hey la, my boyfriend's back)

Not my boyfriend but you're still in danger,
Michael

P.S. I can't stop laughing. I can't believe I used this. Heart!

Dear Michael,

Well I fumbled for a pencil
And my I'm so sorry pad
And I wrote until I sprained my stupid brain
Well you know that there's a reason I made this up so fast
I though I'd never get a chance to say
What's on my mind, I'm never kind
When my vocabulary's secondary to a bottle of wine

But I promise I can love you
Just like a man
And I promise I can hold you
Like nobody can

Making promises I want to keep,
Pete

(PS, I resorted to using Butch Walker lyrics. You know you love them. =D)

Dear Pete,

Anger he smiles, towering in shiny metallic purple armor
Queen jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground

Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
They quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,
But wonder why the fight is on

But they're all bold as love, yes, they're all bold as love
Yeah, they're all bold as love
Just ask the axis

My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war and
Ribbons of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring,
But very unsteady for the first go round
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact Im trying to say its frigthened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from
Giving my life to a rainbow like you

I want to try too,
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 3:25 pm

Dear Michael,

I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency

If you thought I'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won't stop holding on

So are you listening?
are you watching me?

If you thought I'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause I won't stop holding on.

We have an emergency
So are you listening?

And I can't pretend that I don't see this

Well it's really not your fault
When no one cares to talk about it
[talk about it]

Cause I've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be alive (deserved to be alive)
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserved to be alive (alive)

Wanting to show you that I won't use you like they have,
Pete

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 3:43 pm

Dear Pete,

I didn't know if you were legal tender
But I spent you just the same
And I didn't know it could happen to me
But I fell in love in the first degree

It was love at first feel
Love at first feel
Love at first feel
I was touched with too much

Good because I'm falling for you fast,
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 3:51 pm

Dear Michael,

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's ok. It's ok. It's ok.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you're my, you're my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away,
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be ok
Though my skies are turning gray

Please don't throw this away,
Pete

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 3:59 pm

Dear Pete,

In spite of all the danger
In spite of all that may be
I'll do anything for you
Anything you want me to
If you'll be true to me

In spite of all the heartache
That you may cause me
I'll do anything for you
Anything you want me to
If you'll be true to me

I'll look after you
Like I've never done before
I'll keep all the others
From knocking at your door

In spite of all the danger
In spite of all that may be
I'll do anything for you
Anything you want me to
If you'll be true to me

Not planning on it,
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 4:12 pm

Dear Michael,

Soft light, total silence
So tired to take the table in the door
The table in the door
Sat back on the fire
Only as stable as it'll choose to show
If I choose to show
But where were you that night?
When I was...

Well, I feel that this an explosion
Nobody else could ever really know
I will follow you anywhere

You say you don't believe in silence
You're always afraid of what you can't control
I will follow you anywhere
But where were you that night?
When I was...

Willing to follow you anywhere,
Pete

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 4:33 pm

Dear Pete,

I don't want to wonder
If this is a blunder
I don't want to worry whether
We're going to stay together
'Till we die

I don't want to jump in
Unless this music's thumping
All the dishes rattle in the cupboards
When the elephants arrive

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now
I want to love you madly, way
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly

I don't want to fake it
I just want to make it
The ornaments look pretty
But they're pulling down the branches
Of the Tree

I don't want to think about it
I don't want to talk about it
When I kiss your lips
I want to sink down to the bottom
Of the sea

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now, yeah
I want to love you madly, way
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly

I don't want to hold back
I don't want to slip down
I don't want to think back to the one thing that I know I
Should have done

I don't want to doubt you
Know everything about you
I don't want to sit across the table from you
Wishing I could run

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now
I want to love you madly, way
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly

You have to because I'm carrying you,
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 4:40 pm

Dear Michael,

I wanna sink to the bottom with you
I wanna sink to the bottom with you
The ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

Cars on the highway, planes in the air
Everyone else is going somewhere
But I’m going nowhere, getting there too
I might as well just sink down with you

I wanna sink to the bottom with you
I wanna sink to the bottom with you
The ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
I just wanna

Out on the highway, up in the air
Everyone else is going somewhere
They’re going nowhere, and I’ll be there too
I might as well go under with you

I wanna sink to the bottom with you
I wanna sink to the bottom with you
The ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
The ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
I just wanna
I just wanna
I just wanna

Damn you for having a point,
Pete

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 5:11 pm

Dear Pete,

And if I say to you tomorrow
Take my hand, child, come with me
It's to a castle I will take you
Where what's to be, they say will be

Catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky
But the wind wont blow
You really shouldn't go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By taking our time

And if you say to me tomorrow
Oh what fun it all would be
Then whats to stop us, pretty baby
But what is and what should never be

Catch the wind, see us spin
Sail away, leave today
Way up high in the sky
But the wind wont blow
You really shouldn't go
It only goes to show
That you will be mine
By taking our time

So if you wake up with the sunrise
And all your dreams are still as new
And happiness is what you need so bad
~~Girl~~ Boy, the answer lies with you

I'll take you anywhere you want,
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 8:07 pm

Dear Michael,

why can you read me like no one else?
I hide behind these words
but I'm coming out
I wish I hadn't kept them behind my tongue
I hide behind these words
but I'm coming out

put your hand between
an aching head and an aching world
we'll make them so jealous
we'll make them hate us
an aching head and an aching world
we'll make them so jealous
we'll make them so jealous

all the ways you make my stomach turn
and all the long drives
with my friends blur
and I wish I kept them inside my mind
I hide behind these words

and think of all the places
where you've been lost
and then found...out
in between my sheets
in between the rights and the wrongs

put your hand between
an aching head and an aching world
we'll make them so jealous
we'll make them hate us
aching head and an aching world
think of all the places
where you've been lost and found...out

Let's make them jealous,
Pete

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Mon Aug 06, 2007 9:45 pm

Dear Pete,

Put it in my hand
And tell me how much pressure
It takes to get you off

Give it all
Give 'em hell
That's your birthright

This kind of jealous?
Michael

Subject: Re: Letters to Michael Sat Aug 18, 2007 9:26 pm

Dear Pete,

Running with scissors wasn't smart
I tripped and cut open your heart
I didn't mean to but I seem to
Have pushed us back to the start

In the wake of my mistake
I felt your voice starting to shake
The timing couldn't have been worse
For me to be this far away

I'm sorry,
Michael
