Why the **** did you have to call? I was doing so well then you had to go and bring up those sweet summer memories. Its been a while since we spoke and I thought I'd never hear from you again. I guess that was just wishful thinking. Each day I grew stronger but since Thursday I've been letting my weaknesses show. Its nothing I can't get through, just subtle lapses in differentiating between a broken heart and a cluttered head. I know it in my soul that we can't ever be the same again even if I did give you a second chance. It was never easy but things were looking up. Now I'm back on that rocky road with you, worrying if I'm making the right choice in closing communication pathways or if I'm losing something great. At the end of the day you can blame it on the distance but we both know its your fault things are the way they are. I live in love, loving hard when there's love to be had. I guess it was just too much for you to bear.

Why'd you have to call?
I don't know why I miss you I just know that I shouldn't waste my time See, the memories were great But the pain, is way worse I need to remind myself this very thing, but today Its not working out Most days I think I dodged a bullet when thinking about us Today I'd take that bullet right to the heart Bleeding my pain till you saw your mistakes I'm a forgiving person but I'll never forget this pain At first I had my walls And that was an issue So you broke them down I gave you my heart And we found happiness At least you made me believe you had My guard was down and thats when you struck me Without even the decency to wait till I saw your face You coward Some time passed so I started moving on I thought I had but thats only what I told myself So now I'm a hollow man looking for the fulfillment I thought I found this summer Sleeping around Smoking more Eating less but getting by nonetheless So I guess this is what it was like before I met you I'm the same man With half the heart But twice the experience Today I won't try to call you like I wish I could I tried that once And well yeah So I'll go on with my day Missing those passionate beach night memories With that creeping thought That it never meant a thing at all to you My only wish is that it did and that you weren't so ******* immature And I won't forget Your true colors have shown And they're not even that bright at all

Distance is the enemy
We fell so quick This summer came and went and so did you It started out like a movie but ended like it always does Beach nights, phone calls, laughing till the early morning Good morning babe How’s work babe? Goodnight babe We had it all but you gave it up so quick It makes me second guess it all but I wouldn’t give it back for the world It was the best summer of my short life I loved You showed me that love exists and we all deserve it A love that made young people jealous A love that made old people smile You broke down my walls Showed me how to feel again As summer faded and autumn set in something happened inside of you Your dark passenger crept up It took you, it burned you, it engulfed you Your light dimmed by the darkness of what made you I couldn’t be there all the time and you knew it all along I was going away to school and we would make it work And it did work until the darkness consumed you You let the darkness consume you Now I choke at the thought of you I just want you to know that how you gave it up so easy shows me your true colors A strong woman in my mind but you are nothing more than a faltering girl The words you said to me playing on a broken record. We are the right people but it’s the wrong time Well let me tell you Time stops for no man Nothing will change in time Its what you do during the time Time apart from me I hope you know what you’re missing now How could I ever love you again? I can’t ever love you again Because I still love you When winter comes I’ll be home again We’ll see each other The future is an unwritten chapter that leaves me hopeful But how can I do this to myself? Until then You’ll be licking your wounds without me by your side Consumed by the darkness alone in an empty room I hope you’re left with the bitter taste of regret wishing you had done things different

If only you just let me in I know you'd feel the light If only you just opened up I know we would stay in this place Together empowered by a common need The driving force that binds us all together What we need is here for the taking So take it Take mine and I'll take yours We can share it like a blanket on a fall day Under our blanket, without a care in the world Because all we need is right here Under our blanket So take it Let me in Open up Let me show you what I have to offer Which is the very best of me
