Brings Me BaCK

Been too long since I’ve heard your voice

That sweet sarcasm still rolls off your tongue so effortlessly

Like the first day

But you’d think you’d know by now

It’s not gonna work on me the same

I see right through that

Though I love it

You know it’s got me smilin’ babygirl

From ear to ear

That’s the path we’ve taken in the past

So you just laugh

And hang up.

Twice.

I see right through you.

I know you.

Still know you.

Better then you think I do.

Know why?

Because every single day

When I look into the mirror

I see the regret hidden deep in my glazzed eyes

But that’s nothin’ compared to how you made me feel

What you made me see

Believe

What we could be,

Could’ve been.

Even if now’s not the time

I know one day you’ll be mine

Keep dreamin’ til I find…

Til we find…

Brings me back to ‘09

Like I told

It’s been 3 years

Came a long way

But I’m still the same

Fearless.

You love it.

And I know you can’t fight it.

We’ve both tried

Many times

Always find our selves back here

I have my doubts too

I can’t lie

I just miss what we had

Can’t help think if we could get that back--

Just go back to those late nights in your basement

Staying up too late

As the hours past,

As I make you laugh.

You bring out the best in me

On nights like that

It’s a nice thought but I know we can’t--

Can’t go back.

Just give me a chance

Let me in

At least be my friend

Try again.

Vices

Searching for clarity in all the wrong places.

My mind is engrossed with the looks on their faces.

Surrounding me with all of my vices

How did I ever get like this?

I should have seen it coming,

It was just a matter of time,

Before this life of mine has hit a wall,

And it too will fall,

Slowly but surely

Breaking down,

But not by itself,

Fore effort must be profound.

I’ve said it too many times to count

Then sat on back and watched it burn

My life, up in flames

Leaving ashes in the rain

Because it never fails to poor.

Take me where it rains the most,

What’s left to wash away is hurt,

Followed with rays of light

Shining from the Highest light

The rays that shine even when the clouds are grey

Don’t want to look back when it’s already too late.

Don't Forget Your Number

Here I am once again
Fooled
Trying to fight the pain I feel
But it's real
I hate this shit
How'd I slip up
I saw it from the start
Should have never gave you the opportunity to get close,
Get to know,
You Think you know me.
But you don't.
Not even close.
That's why I laugh
So I'll turn and run the other way
Too familiar with your type
If you could only be a man of your word
The opportunities could be endless
Instead let's just end this
Before the games and mind tricks
Take me further away
From my true vision
My final destination
I see it
I can picture it now
Standing in my kingdom
On you I'll be lookin down
