"picture on the screen" lyrics

i see you smiling on the screen
you've no clue i've been crying
you don't know how i've been feeling
you're just the picture on the screen,
a frozen memory.

and i
just wish
i could kiss those very lips
grinning on the screen
but my love is just a frozen memory
smiling back at me.

and you
don't have a clue
of half the way i feel
about you
don't go
i really wanna know.

fighting back the tears
biting back the fears
i'm missing you with each passing moment
that you're gone

&quot;the real trouble with reality is that there&#039;s no background music&quot;<br /> &quot;i don&#039;t suffer from insanity. i enjoy every minute of it.&quot;<br /> &ldquo;Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?&rdquo; -Marianne Williamson. Trying so hard to believe this but SO not succeeding&hellip;..
