((An awesome dæmon to human song, if not the most cheerful. The lyrics are rather self-explanatory, but I see it as a dæmon berating their human because they're sick of being ignored and brushed off as imaginary.))

I am a little bit of loneliness
A little bit of disregard
Handful of complaints, but I can't help the fact
That everybody can see these scars
I am what I want you to want
What I want you to feel
But it's like no matter what I do
I can't convince you to just believe this is real
So I let go, watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I got

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I am a little bit insecure
A little unconfident
'Cause you don't understand I do what I can
But sometimes I don't make sense
I say what you never wanna say
But I've never had a doubt
It's like no matter what I do I can't convince you
For once just to hear me out
So I let go, watching you
Turn your back like you always do
Face away and pretend that I'm not
But I'll be here 'cause you're all that I've got

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

Now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now
Hear me out now
You're gonna listen to me, like it or not
Right now

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel the way I did before
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal this damage anymore
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored

I can't feel
I won't be ignored
Time won't heal
Don't turn your back on me
I won't be ignored



((Sweetest song ever, and it gives me warm, fuzzy feelings to think of someone singing it to their dæmon.))

If there were no words
No way to speak
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you
And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine

All of my life
I have been waiting for
All you give to me
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love unselfishly

I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
And in my dreams I couldn't love you more
I will give you my heart
Until the end of time
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart until the end of time
'Cause all I need is you, my Valentine
You're all I need, my love, my Valentine



((The first time I heard this song, the lyrics reminded me of a guy discovering his dæmon, and feeling as though she were a companion sent by God to aid him, and also realizing this loving soul has been with him all along.))

Human, Dæmon

Mile upon mile got no direction
We're all playing the same game
We're all looking for redemption
Just afraid to say the Name
So caught up now in pretending
What we're seeking is the truth
I'm just looking for a happy ending
All I'm looking for is You

It came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here
Am I the one You were sent to save?
It came upon me wave on wave

I wandered out into the water
I thought that I might drown
I don't know what I was after
Just know I was going down

That's when she found me
I'm not afraid anymore
She said, "You know I always had ya, baby.
Just waiting for you to find what you were looking for."

It came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here
Am I the one you were sent to save?
It came upon me wave on wave

Wave on wave
Wave on wave

The clouds broke and the angels cried
You ain't gotta walk alone
That's why He put me in your way
And you came upon me wave on wave

It came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here
Am I the one you were sent to save?
It came upon me wave on wave



((Submitted by Kirryn: "It describes the bond between dæmon and human so well, it's almost scary."))

The sky isn't always blue
The sun doesn't always shine
It's all right to fall apart sometimes
I am not always you
And you are not always mine
It's all right to fall apart sometimes

After all's said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half

A heart isn't always true
And I am not always fine
It's all right to fall apart sometimes

After all's said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is...

One moon, one star
I love the one we are
One friend, one love
Let's stand still in time
One moon, one star
I love the one we are
One thread, one line
That runs through our lives

After all's said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is one



((A dæmon singing about all that they wish for their now young human in the future.))

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get to fill the eat, but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to sellin' out, reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance... I hope you dance
I hope you dance... I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder
Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance... I hope you dance
I hope you dance... I hope you dance
I hope you dance... I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along
Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder
Where those years have gone)



((Submitted by Cat: "It's about a human who is adjusting to his dæmon's presence in his life, and then, when things start to fall apart, he starts to realize exactly what a dæmon is for. I think it kind of captures a human's relationship with their dæmon."))

I gave my life away
Now it's time to play
Gotta live by the choice I've made
This is what I choose
If I don't want to lose
Then I need to let you make my move

'Cause you know better than I, I could ever
And I don't want to try to
Ever do without you
You know more than I could, I could ever
And if you weren't there for me
I'd go crazy

I can't pretend that I don't need you
With all of this stuff in my life
I just don't know what to do
Every time I'm afraid of what's in front of me
You keep me from going crazy
Show's done but the tape keeps rollin'
Can't push stop 'cause my life is recording
All this pressure keeps on pressin'
You keep me from going crazy

Every face I see
Takes a hold of me
And keeps me where I need to be
With a lot on my mind
Sometimes it makes me blind
And the vision gets hard to find

But you know better than I could ever
And I don't want to try to
Ever do without you
You know more than I could, I could ever
And if you weren't there for me
I'd go crazy

I can't pretend that I don't need you
With all of this stuff in my life
I just don't know what to do
Every time I'm afraid of what's in front of me
You keep me from going crazy
Show's done but the tape keeps rollin'
Can't push stop 'cause my life is recording
All this pressure keeps on pressin'
You keep me from going crazy

I thank God for the life I lead
I wouldn't trade it
Not for a minute
I don't want to think that I don't need
You with me
You are my security
Now that I got it
Can't go without it
'Cause I need you
Need you to keep me
From going crazy

I can't pretend that I don't need you
With all of this stuff in my life
I just don't know what to do
Every time I'm afraid of what's in front of me
You keep me from going crazy
Show's done but the tape keeps rollin'
Can't push stop 'cause my life is recording
All this pressure keeps on pressin'
You keep me from going crazy

Crazy...
You keep me from going crazy
Crazy...



((Dæmon to human.))

Yeah, I know it hurts
Yeah, I know you're scared
Walking down the road that leads
To who knows where
Don't you hang your head
Don't you give up yet
When courage starts to disappear
I will be right here

When your world breaks down
And the voices tell you "Turn around"
When your dreams give out
I will carry you, carry you
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to flood your eyes
When you're falling behind
I will carry you

Everybody cries
Everybody bleeds
No one ever said that life's an easy thing
That's the beauty of it
When you lose your way
Close your eyes and go to sleep
And wake up to another day

When your world breaks down
And the voices tell you "Turn around"
When your dreams give out
I will carry you, carry you
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to flood your eyes
When you're falling behind
I will carry you

You should know now that you're not alone
Take my heart and we will find
You will find your way home

When your dreams give out
I will carry you, carry you
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to flood your eyes
When you're falling behind
I will carry you, carry you

I will carry you, carry you
I will carry you, carry you
I will carry you



((Dæmon to human.))

Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
Young girl, it's all right
Your tears will dry, you'll soon be free to fly

When you're safe inside your room you tend to dream
Of a place where nothing's harder than it seems
No one ever wants or bothers to explain
Of the heartache life can bring and what it means

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don't hide
You'll never change if you just run away
Young girl, just hold tight
And soon you're gonna see your brighter day

Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
It's so hard to stand your ground when you're so afraid
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
When you're lost outside look inside to your soul

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Life is a journey
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you're learning
You'll find all you'll ever need to know

(Be strong)
You'll break it
(Hold on)
You'll make it
Just don't forsake it because
No one can stop you
You know that I'm talking to you

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall



((Guy to his female dæmon.))

Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without
You

I was searching for something I thought I would never find
Losing my mind
In and out of bad love, I thought I was born to lose
Then came you...
I've been hypnotized
Now I realize

Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without
You

Every time I get lost in a temperamental mood
You still stay cool
Just when I think that this life's about to drive me insane
You take the reins
Every time I feel I'm drifting off course
You're my compass, you're my one true north
In a mixed up world
You make sense to me, girl

Every road that I've been down
The only truth that I have found
There's only one thing I can't live without
You

Yeah, every road, girl
Leads me to you
And baby, that's all I need to know...



((Submitted by Emily: "It's so perfect for Chayan and me, I think - I wasn't paying too much attention to the radio until Chay' started singing along. He doesn't do that often; I listened, and it felt like finding him all over again. I think, though, that any dæmian could relate to it."))

Everybody needs a best friend in this world
We all need one good thing in this cruel cruel world
That we can count on all of our lives
You sounded so alone last night and I could not help but cry
I wanted to reach out to you and just make everything all right
I wish that I could show you just how much I truly care
All my life I promise to be there

I would be your best friend in the world
I would be the one true thing in this untrue world
And I will hold you all through the night
I will be the best friend to you, girl
You can tell me all those things that you can't tell the world
And I will listen all through the night

I would've given anything just to wipe all your tears away
I would've walked for miles and miles all you had to do was say
If you needed me by morning light, know that I'm on my way
'Cause all my life I promise to be there

'Cause I would be your best friend in the world
I would be the one good thing in this cruel cruel world
That you can count on all of your life
I will be the best friend to you, girl
You can show me all those things that you hide from the world
And I will be here for the rest of your life

When life's hard to understand
I'm gonna reach out my hand to you
Hold on and you'll see how much I care

'Cause everybody needs a best friend in this world
We all need one good thing in this cruel cruel world
That we can count on all of our lives

'Cause I wanna be the best friend in the world
I wanna be the one true thing in this untrue world
Yes I will hold you all through the night
I wanna be the best friend to you, girl
Can I be the one good thing in this cruel cruel world?

Yes I will be here for the rest of your life
I wanna be your best friend, would you be my best friend
I wanna be your best friend in the world, for all of your life
