((I guess we're starting things off with a really, really mushy human to dæmon song.))

How do I get through the night without you
If I had to live without you
What kinda life would that be
Oh I need you in my arms, need you to hold
You're my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
baby you would take away
everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I live

Without you
There'd be no sun in my sky
there'd be no love in my life
there would be no world left for me
And I, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
If you ever leave
baby you would take away
everything real in my life
and tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I live

Please tell me baby, how do I go on
If you ever leave
baby you would take away everything
I need you with me
baby don't you know that you are
everything good in my life
And tell me now

How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
if you ever go
how do I ever, ever survive
how do I
Oh how do I
Oh how do I live
How do I live without you?
How do I live without you, baby?
How do I live without you?



((A beautiful song about how we don't need words to communicate on a deep level with our loved ones, and this is especially true of our dæmons. I've always loved this one.))

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all



((Who could understand you better than your other half?))

So I'm a little left of center
I'm a little out of tune
Some say I'm paranormal
So I just bend their spoon
Who wants to be ordinary
In a crazy, mixed-up world
I don't care what they're sayin'
As long as I'm your girl
Hey, you are on my side
And they, they just roll their eyes

You get me
When nobody understands
You come and take the chance, baby
You get me
You look inside my wild mind
Never knowing what you'll find
And still you want me all the time
Yeah, you do
Yeah, you get me

So what if I see the sunshine
In the pouring rain
Some people think I'm crazy
But you say it's okay
You've seen my secret garden
Where all of my flowers grow
In my imagination, anything goes
I, I am all you want
They, they just read me wrong

...Hey, you are on my side
They, they just roll their eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah

'Cause you get me
When nobody understands
You come and take the chance, baby
You get me
When none of the pieces fit
You make sense of it
You get me
You look inside my wild mind
Never knowing what you'll find
And still I want you all the time
Yeah, I do
'Cause you get me



((A dæmon telling their human to not compromise, and to have pride in who they are.))

And love It's not the easy thing
The only baggage that you can bring
Not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
For a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on
Walk on
What you got, they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it
Walk on
Walk on
Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase for a place
None of us has been
A place that has to be believed
To be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird
In an open cage
Who will only fly
Only fly for freedom

Walk on
Walk on
What you got, you can't deny it
Can't sell it or buy it
Walk on
Walk on
You stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
How your heart, it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on
Walk on

Home
Hard to know what it is
If you never had one
Home
I can't say where it is
But I know I'm going
Home
That's where the heart is

And I know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on
Leave it behind
You've got to leave it behind

All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel
All this you can't leave behind
All that you reason
All that you care
It's only time
And I'll never fill up all my mind
All that you sense
All that you scheme
All you dress up
And all that you see
All you create
All that you wreck
All that you hate...



((Someone thanking their dæmon for always being there, and helping to guide them.))

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand, I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me



((One of my favorite dæmony songs, simple though it is. For me it really expresses the comfort and unconditional love my dæmon makes me feel, just by being there. The line 'And you say you see when you look at me / The reason you love life so' has made me bawl. >>))

Laugh and cry
Live and die
Life is a dream we are dreaming
Day by day
I find my way
Look for the soul and the meaning

Then you look at me
And I always see
What I have been searching for
I'm lost as I can be
Then you look at me
And I am not lost anymore

People run, sun to sun
Caught in their lives ever flowing
Once begun, life goes 'til it's gone
We have to go where it's going

And you say you see
When you look at me
The reason you love life so
Though lost I have been
I find love again
And life just keeps on rolling
And life just keeps on rolling
You look at me and life comes from you



((An oldy but a goody. Perhaps too romantic, but could still be seen as dæmon to human.))

I see the questions in your eyes
I know what's weighing on your mind
You can be sure I know my part
'Cause I stand beside you through the years
You'll only cry those happy tears
And though I make mistakes
I'll never break your heart

I swear
By the moon and the stars in the sky
I'll be there
And I swear
Like the shadow that's by your side
I'll be there
For better or worse
'Til death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
I swear

And I swear I'll give you everything I can
I'll build your dreams with these two hands
We'll hang some memories on the wall
And when there's silver in your hair
You won't have to ask if I still care
'Cause as the time turns the page
My love won't age at all

I swear
By the moon and the stars in the sky
I'll be there
And I swear
Like the shadow that's by your side
I'll be there
For better or worse
'Til death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart...



((A lot of dæmians have felt attracted to this song, since the chorus seems well suited to a dæmon talking about how they wouldn't prefer a physical body over being incorporeal. Just being with their human is enough.))

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest thing to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am...



((Human, dæmon))

I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere in the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do, yeah

I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite

You called me strong, you called me weak
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you
Back on solid ground

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite

If I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand?
I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might
Kryptonite



((Love, love this one. It makes a great dæmon to human song.))

When you feel all alone
And the world has turned its back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild wild heart

I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief, and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door
And you feel like you can't take anymore

Let me be the one you call
If you jump, I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash, then crash and burn
You're not alone

When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one-way street
With the monsters in your head

When hopes and dreams are far away
And you feel like you can't face the day

Let me be the one you call
If you jump, I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash, then crash and burn
You're not alone

'Cause there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's over you'll breathe again
You'll breathe again

When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild wild heart

Let me be the one you call
If you jump, I'll break you fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
