the reason I can’t get You
out of my head is because
though it’s been broken to get You out
You’re buried too deep within my heart
I woke up today with a burden
heavier than before
there is just too much
that’s now out of control
—- —-
You broke my heart
more than once
A million jagged little pieces
but I still can’t get you [...]
love you if i may
love you if i might
but you only seem
to want to fight
love you if i can
love you if i could
but is this something
that we both should?
life is too short
shorter than we think
we loved and we lost
in less than a blink
i miss you more than i can say
more and each and every day
am i just another guy
please don’t make me cry
our lives are filled with sorrow
but there is always tomorrow
I can’t seem to write anymore
My heart has ended its war
It can’t love like it did before
No matter how much I implore
Where are all the rhymes?
How is this not a crime
All this freaking time
But a personal one of mine
let us end our story, my love
let us say our good bye’s
let us embrace one last time
and part with smiles in our eyes
we had a good short run
we had some fun in the sun
but something has changed
this time cupid has not won
indulge me but once more
to show we’re still good sports
let us laugh as we [...]
I hope God has his back turned to
what is going on in this world at the moment.
For I stand in shame and exasperation for feeling
incapable of doing anything about it, if he is not.
I’d rather be in Hell with you by my side
were it for but a small moment.
Rather than in Heaven and you on my mind
For that is truly the worst torment.
I got me the Genghis Khan Blues
I got what I want but I ain’t got you.
You said you promise
It’s not like I asked for a lot
Just to hear your voice again
But broken promise is all I got.
I only wanted to hear from you
For you just to call
But all I got from you
Was nothing.. nothing at all.
FORGETFULNESS
