You're not on my mind all the time
You are not what I think about every single night
Some days I forget how you make me feel
But maybe I was wrong, it's because I don't know who you are to me
So what's the code?
Can someone teach me how to do this
How do you know, what's the code?
Is it as simple to just know yourself?
How do you know, what's the code
(What's the code, what's the code, what's the code,
what's the code, what's the code, what's the code)
So I guess I'm just guessing
Placing a bet
Maybe this time I'll make the right choice instead
Cause I have this feeling that I've skipped a class
Everyone seems to get it while I am just in my mind, losing my mind
So what's the code?
Can someone teach me how to do this
How do you know, what's the code?
It's not as simple to just know yourself
How do you know, what's the code
(What's the code, what's the code, what's the code,
what's the code, what's the code, what's the code)
And I wait for you to come around
To tell me it gets easier somehow
Assure, explain, lie if you like
Just tell me it gets easier somehow
Somehow

She said
Hey, I like tea
I drink it all the time
Maybe you'd like to drink it with me?
But I cry a lot
I am an anxious mess
You said: Baby, so am I
I promise you will be okay
You said to her
I promise I will make your day
Everyday from now on
I promise you won't shed a tear
Just trust in me please
I promise I will make you smile
Cause I adore you doing that
She said
Hey, I trip a lot
I talk during films
And I often interrupt
And I apologise even if it's not my fault
I know that it's not wise
I promise you will be okay
You said to her
I promise I will make your day
Everyday from now on
I promise you won't shed a tear
Just trust in me please
I promise I will make you smile
Cause I adore you doing that
You looked deep into her eyes
You took a breath
I don't know what to say
I will try and learn how to love every single flaw of yours
I will try and learn to love
Because...
I don't remember other's names
And I often make mistakes
I curse and usually mess up dates
I am good in running late
Though I am cautious I can pretty easily hurt myself, I
I am no perfect, can't you see?
But I am good in being me
And you are good in being you
And you are perfect to me

reality

When you smile you light up my whole world
Rumours say your laughter's perfect
I wonder, if you've heard
I don't want to hear that you're alone
I can come and be there for you
Like no one's been before
Runaway with me
Let's leave this all behind and go
Wherever we want to go
Maybe it's fantasy
But we have what it takes to
Make this our own reality
Reality
Let's make this our own reality
Let me in and place your trust in me
I can be just all you need
You'll be the best in me
Lay with me and forget all your worries
We'll replace everything bad with new memories
Runaway with me
Let's be authors of our lives and go
Wherever we want to go
Maybe it's fantasy
But we are strong enough to
Make this our own reality
Reality, reality
Won't you hold me close tonight?
Make your mind, give this your chance
Give yourself the right to fall in love
Take your time and let me know
But please, don't leave me here alone
We will live a fairytale and more
Runaway with me
Let's be together from now on,
Go wherever we want to go
Maybe it's fantasy
But we have each other till the end,
We'll make it our own reality
Reality
We'll make this our own reality
I don't want to hear that you're alone

everything i can't say

I won't say that you are the centre of my world
Or that you are my world
Like you told me if you were
Without you everything would fall apart
And I can't stand that
It's not like I can't be happy when you're not around
I smile more with you by my side
I won't say that it's eternal, because nothing here is
But I'd spend with you eternity
Your smile, your laugh
One look into your eyes
Your praise, our games
Hoping I did not idealise
Sometimes it feels like you are my everything
But I know there's more
I can imagine life without you
I could live alone
But I don't see the point
You are my favourite person walking on this earth
Even though you share that worth
I don't want to go nor leave you
Hope you feel the same way
I'm scared I won't be able to love again
Your smile, your laugh
One look into your eyes
Your praise, our games
Hoping I did not idealise
Your smile, your laugh
One look into your eyes
Your praise, our games
Hoping this will stay for a while
Hoping I did not idealise
Hoping you will love me longer than for a while

better world

When we parted you said I would miss
Fragile feelings we couldn't admit
All those stupid things that I have done
I was hoping you'd make me the one
(I was hoping you'd make me the one
I was hoping you'd make me the one(
If I could rewrite this end
Tell me, would you stay
If I could be your perfect girl
Could this be a better world
Would this be a better world
For me
Time has passed I left it all behind
We don't exist in each other lives
I know it's okay, I know it was right
Still I see this picture in my mind
(We don't exist in each other lives
Still I see this picture in my mind)
We were talking, I held back my tears
I was drowning in my own fears
Still I never really figured why
'Cause it never was the plan
If I could rewrite this end
Tell me, would you stay
If I could be your perfect girl
Would this be a better world
If I could take it all back
Would you want to make it right
If I could be your perfect girl
Could this be a better world
Would this be a better world
For me
Do you even remember my name
Are you thinking about it as I am
This could have been one of a kind
Do you call it to mind
If I could be your perfect girl
Perfect girl
If I could rewrite this end
Tell me, would you stay
If I could be your perfect girl
Would this be a better world
If I could take it all back
Would you want to make it right
If I could be your perfect girl

Cynka Poland
I use simple words to express my complex thoughts to the tunes of what some would call bedroom pop (maybe because I record
it in my bedroom or maybe because I can’t play anything besides basic chords on the ukulele and guitar).
I put my heart and soul on YouTube first and now I’m putting them here, hoping that somebody will find themselves in them, too.
