What It's LikeDo you know what it's likeTo take the weight off your shouldersTo run freely on airAnd to glow?Do you know what it's likeTo obey people's ordersTo have it pay offAnd to know?Do you know what it's likeTo find what you worked forTo look in the lightAnd to see?Do you know what it's likeTo be saved by the soreTo find their heartAnd agree?~M
Nothing More PerfectTwo lives so apartBut I'll never forgetThere's nothing more perfectThan the day that we met.I still feel the scarsBut love you all the whileThere's nothing more perfectThan the way that you smile.You blush when I'm nearBut you cannot disguiseThere's nothing more perfectThan the glow in your eyes.Because of your friendshipI finally seeThere's nothing more perfectThan what you did for me.~M
How Could You?"No one deserves thisIt cannot be realThe anger, distressAnd depression I feelPlease give me a secondMy strength just disbandsI can't live this wayAnd I don't understandWhat is this madness?It never happened beforeFifteen yearsAnd my heart is so sore "~Why did you do this?Turn his laugh to a frownHis smile to tearsAnd let him break down?~M

The MoonriseI'm proud to be an outcastBut I'm proud to lead the fightFor though the dark is risingWe will always see the light.I'm proud to lose my bodyBut I'm proud to lift my eyesFor though the pain is sharperWe will always break the ties.I'm proud to sweat and sufferBut I'm proud to stand up tallFor though the others stumbleWe will always break their fall.I'm proud to watch the moonriseBut I'm proud to end the dayFor though the season's overWe will always find a way.~M
Brighter Than the SpotlightThe downbeat starts the showAnd every time we turn a page,You're louder than the musicFor your smile fills the stage.The melody is playingAnd the beauty may befall,You're closer than the audienceFor your face can move the hall.The song begins right nowAnd with the other actors gone,You're brighter than the spotlightFor your eyes keep beaming on.I never hear the wordsBecause the figure there is you...You're stronger than the curtainFor your voice just shines right through.~M
Our DuetThe bar line starts the chords in the preludeWe had a harmony I can't forgetYour eyes accel. my tempo when you're cuedThe timbre of my world in our duetYour touch is the vibrato in your toneYour smile, a romantic serenade But then the key turns minor, darker, andLegato measures are no longer playedThe horns all rip and woodwinds start to trillTo build the dissonance and the fortesCrescendo, held fermata, cutoff, still-The symphony in your voice to end the phraseRemember in the movements we're apartThe rhythm of your melody in my heart.~M
Something About YouThere's something aboutThe wind touching your hairThe sun kisses your faceAnd I can't help but stareThere's something aboutAll your laughter and sighsHow you smile at meAnd I can't meet your eyesThere's something aboutAll the pain you enduredHow you say that you're fineBut I can't be assuredThere's something aboutAll the magic aboveAnd through all that will happenWe'll still be in love.~M
