calendar girl.

time for you to go back to the places you will be from
so gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits - I hope you have found
a friend.
every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

This might be the weirdest I have ever felt before. I feel really alone, and I feel really surreal. I'm fine.
--------------------------------------------
if I am lost for a day; try and find me
but if i don't come back,
then i won't look behind me
all of the things that i thought were so easy
just got harder and harder each day.
december is the darkest and june is the light
but this empty bedroom won't make anything right.
while out on the landing a friend i forgot to send home
who waits up for me all through the night.
calendar girl whos in love with the world
stay alive.
calendar Girl whos in love with the world
stay alive.
i dreamed i was dying, as i so often do
and when I awoke i was sure it was true.
i ran to the window; threw my head to the sky
and said whoever is up there,
please don't let me die.
but i can't live forever, i can't always breathe
one day i'll be sand on a beach by a sea.
the pages keep turning, i'll mark off each day with a cross
and i'll laugh about all that we've lost.
calendar girl who is lost to the world
stay alive
calendar girl who is lost to the world
stay alive
january, february, march, april, may
i'm alive
june, july, august, september, october
i'm alive
november, december, yeah all through the winter,
i'm alive,
i'm alive.
