strangers

started as strangers, as unlikely friends

that night in October, our story begins

a head rush, something new filled in my heart

it ended just before anything could start

excited I gave in to every request

longing for you I tried hard to impress

feeble and stupid I cherished your words

lonely, I sit now, bewildered and hurt

how did I let a stranger bring me down

mindful, I force my guard up now

I have to remember I did nothing wrong

continue to push forth, and try to move on

walking away you laugh coldheartedly

judging, but you never even knew me

started as strangers, as unlikely friends

that night in April, our story ends

sinking

hiding from the clouds

from the rain you welcomed down

building up my walls, higher than ever

my guard is up now

the flame is burning out

its still you that I want, forever

deepening now

I dream about

The way we could be together

Been all around

Still haven’t found

Someone who knew me better

running from the sound

of their pessimistic doubt

they try to tell me, never

losing our ground

sinking, we drown

in love, lets go wherever

jump

she feels so low,

she doesn’t want to move

her skeletons hollow,

truth is breaking through

her heart is tired,

she can’t even cry

her every desire

is now a goodbye

you haven’t see her slipping,

or crying at night

you haven’t heard the ripping,

of her heart inside

all you see is a happy girl,

fooling herself

lying to the whole world,

being someone else

in the daytime, she’s hiding;

the sleeves come off at night

the echoes reminding,

she’s best friends with the knife

with a mastered practiced smile,

the nights what she awaits

hadn't feared all this time,

but now she hesitates

both feet on the railing,

a slip could end it all

at this too, she’s failing,

why does she stall?

why does she stall?

somewhere down this road

hoping, I stood there for longer than you deserved

broken, I waited, do you see how im hurt

excuses I made for your own sorry sake

you took as prizes in your stupid games

youve drained all the life

from my tired, hollow eyes

I hope that youre happy now, cause

maybe not tomorrow

and definitely not today

but somewhere down this road

youre gonna wish I had stayed

youre gonna realize  what I had seen

before I walked away

oh somewhere down this road

youre gonna wish I had stayed

defeated, our chapters a page now turned

slowly, I let go of your empty words

I tried to love you through all your faults

so how is it that, youre the one to have moved on

you’ve drained all the life

from my tired, hollow eyes

so I hope that youre happy now, cause

maybe not tomorrow

and definitely not today

but somewhere down this road

youre gonna wish I had stayed

youre gonna realize  what I had seen

before I walked away

oh somewhere down this road

youre gonna wish I had stayed
