I Couldn't Write a Word of My Own Today
I thought of all the things I'd like to say. Cramped up and couldn't write a word all day. ~ Give me a few hours and I'll have this all sorted out. If my mind would just stop racing. I cannot stand still. I can't be this unsturdy, this cannot be happening. ~ Untie the weight bags I never thought I could. Steady feet don't fail me now. ~ Honesty is a hard attribute to find when we all want to seem like we've got it all figured out. ~ With so much to say, but no words to convey, the loneliness building with each passing day. But I'm getting used to it, you have to get used to it. ~ You start to wonder why you're here not there. And you'd do anything to get what's fair. But fair ain't what you really need. ~ I was thinking about that and a bunch of other things. I need to pour out this expansive dose of words. ~ It's a fight between my heart and mind. No one really wins this time. ~ I'm not saying anything you haven't heard before, I'm just trying to understand the way we are. ~ Nothing I can say to bring us back to where we were. When life was not this hard. Looking back it all just seems so far. ~ Late night drives, all along in my car, I can't help but start singing lines from all our favourite songs. ~ I hear your song resound, I little bit softer each day. ~ There's nothing I can say to you to make you feel alive again. ~ Just do your best to hear me, it's all you can do. You have my attention. ~ I can tell that you don't know me anymore. It's easy to forget, sometimes we just forget. ~ Who would've guessed that what we thought was real was so fragile and ended so soon. ~ All alone, in a world that doesn't care. ~ Everybody knows somebody who needs something to believe in. Everybody dreams and everybody has a dream that's broken. ~ And being on this road is anything but sure. ~ Everybody talks but nobody will listen. Cause we're too scared of the quiet. ~ Ya I know that everyone gets scared sometime. But I've become what I can't be. ~ Can't you see this unbelief is human tragedy. ~ Another day so far away from paradise. ~ But everything looks perfect from far away. ~ Rain down, rain down, come on rain down on me from a great height. ~ We all have weaknesses but some of ours are easier to identify. So when my weakness turns my ego up I know you'll count on the me from yesterday. If I turn into another, dig me up from what is covering the better part of me. ~ You've got some nerve but you can't face your mistakes. I know what I should do, but I just can't turn away. ~ Love hurts... but sometimes it's a good hurt. ~ No one's immune. ~ In spite of this we're doing fine, even diamonds start as coal. ~ I'm keeping an eye on the future, an eye on the past. ~ I wish we could open our eyes to see in all directions at the same time. ~ Things are never going to be the way you want. ~ Are you going to waste your time? Got to make you move or you'll miss out. Someone will ask you what it's all about. What are you going to have to say for yourself? ~ Don't write yourself off yet. ~ With one hand high you'll show them your progress. ~ It's that time of year, leave all our hopelessness aside. If just for a little while, tears stop here. I know we've all had a bumpy ride, I'm secretly on your side. ~ I fall asleep with my friends around me. Only place I know, I feel safe. I'm gonna call this home. ~ You know that I'm going to say time's slipping away. You're standing ignoring me. ~ By now you should've somehow realised what you're not to do. ~ I must admit it's my pride that made me distant. All because I hoped you'd be someone different. ~ It really didn't make sense to leave this unresolved. ~ I threw out everything that didn't make sense. To find a thousand more things that don't make sense. ~ It's not so easy caving in. ~ I wish you were a stranger I could disengage. Say that we agree and then never change. Soften a bit until we always get along. But that's disregard. ~ I deconstruct my thoughts at this piano. ~ Sometime perfection can be, it can be perfect hell. ~ I'd rather run the other way than stay and see, the smoke and who's still standing when it clears. ~ If I don't say this now I will surely break. ~ Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same. ~ You've hit one wall now find a way around. ~ Windows open and close that's just how it goes. ~ I believe that there's hope buried beneath it all. ~ I always believed in futures. I hope for better. ~
