“I Won’t Give Up”

When I look into your eyes
It’s like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
So much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you’ve come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up

And when you’re needing your space
To do some navigating
I’ll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

‘Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We got a lot to learn
God knows we’re worth it
No I won’t give up

I don’t wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I’m here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools, the skills we’ve got yeah we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you’re still my friend at least we didn’t tend
For us to work we didn’t break, we didn’t burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I got, and what I’m not
And who I am

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I’m giving you all my love
I’m still looking up

So easy is our life
What’s mine is yours and yours mine
Hardly do we ever fight
We’d rather be kind

I won’t give up on us
Even if the skies get dark
I’m healing this broken heart
And I know I’m worth it

I won’t give up on us
God knows I’m tough, I am love
We got a lot to learn
God knows we’re worth it

No I won’t give up on us
God knows I’ve had enough
We got a lot to learn
And we’re, and we’re worth it

No I won’t give up
No I won’t give up

Tell me a secret, tell me anything
What’s your weapon? what’s your middle name?
What do you believe in? what’s your animal?
Are you a cat or a dog person?
What’s your outlook? what’s your favourite saying?

Hey, maybe you laugh, maybe you laugh a lot
Maybe you started, but you somehow quit the part mm
And you may be a hippie and a democrat,
Yeah I remember that, I think
And you might like wine, but you’re not the type who likes to drink

Why make me, forget everything i know?
All my beliefs, replaced by scenarios

Of unintelligent life, echoing in stereo
On invisible mics, winding to my mind
So I would like another look inside you,
Yeah I would love the chance to love you, like I’ve never known you

Yeah, maybe you’re sleeping on a telephone.
And maybe you’re dreaming of an anglophone with a crooked smile
And maybe your profile, posts a brand new nose
And maybe your new job, it requires that you cannot wear any clothes.

Why make me, forget everything i know?
All my beliefs, replaced by scenarios

Of unintelligent life, echoing in stereo
On invisible mics, winding to my mind
So I would like another look inside you,
Yeah I would love the chance to love you, like I’ve never known you

Maybe your favourite colour is brown,
And maybe your crying and you’re not sure why
Maybe you’re living in a whole new town
And maybe you’re back with your old boyfriend and you’re busy going down.

Why make me, forget everything,
All my beliefs, are my memories

All the episodes of you, especially the ones that hurt
And the few that made me laugh

Well I can’t get them back,
That’s why I’m asking for some more of you now
Yes I would love the chance to love you
And I would love to love you!

Why make me, forget everything I know?
All my beliefs, replaced by scenarios

Of unintelligent life, echoing in stereo
On invisible mics, winding to my mind
So I would like another look inside you,
Yeah I would love the chance to love you, like I’ve never known you

I would, I would, I would love to look inside of you (x4)

Ninja Yoga: Crazy Love

Oh, grasshopper, I might as well say it now so I don’t have to say it later: it’s not your heart that’s suffering, it’s your ego. Your heart can only love; and by “heart” I mean your truest self, that state of being that is nothing but all things arising, subsiding, arising, subsiding. And by…

Everything you take for granted is a blessing. Everything you fear is a friend in disguise. Everything you want is a part of you. Everything you hate you hate about yourself. Everything you own does not define you. Everything you feel is the only Truth there is to know.

Everything you wish for is already on its way to you. Everything you think creates your life. Everything you seek for you will find. Everything you resist will stick around. Everything you let go of stays if it’s supposed to. Everything you need is right where you are.

Every time you bless another your bless yourself. Every time you blame another you lose your power. Every time you think you can, you can. Every time you fall you must get up and try again. Every time you cry you’re one tear closer to joy. Every time you ask for forgiveness, all you have to do is forgive yourself.

Everyone you see is your reflection. Everyone you know mirrors you. Everyone wants to be happy. Everyone wants to live in joy. Everyone seeks a higher purpose. Everyone breathes the same breath. Everyone needs love to survive. Everyone has a purpose to fulfill.

Everyone’s the same as everyone else. We just get caught up in labels, names, skin color and religion. Everyone’s the same as everyone else. No one wants to feel the pain. Everyone’s the same as everyone else. Everyone is dying for love to remain.
