As i stare in this mirror
Waiting for a change

Nothing to my name but some change
Having nobody that i can claim

When you look at me
Are you ashamed?

Everything i've grown into,
Tattoos showing my scars

Read in-between the lines
As I cry in these bars

My feelings caged behind a skeleton key
Hoping to find it somewhere in your shadow


I feel as if im broken and gone
So what's there to know,
Im so sad, doesn't it show

Look in my eyes
I promise i wont lie

When you left
I promised myself i wouldnt cry

When you left
It felt my heart left with you

Im so lost and so gone'
When had this gone so wrong?

I took a wrong turn
I love you, Its your turn
Now im left with these pictures to burn

I don't wanna give my love to one
That you've earned

There's so much about you that I'm yet to learn.
But **** did the tables turn

Is this what I've earned
Being on my own
To take on this world alone

I thought this isn't how this is supposed to be,
I was expecting fireworks & you with me

I can't help but to remember your smile,
I'd go miles just to see it

Anything you want me to be,
I swear ill be it

You want be my master?
Anything, so be it!

Baby, she'll never be you,
Any girl doesn't compare to you
But while your gone,
What am i left to do,

Wishing for you to come home to me,
I'll forgive & forget everything you've just done to me

Just come back to me
This isn't me begging

My hearts crying out for you
Can you please fallow my Howls

My tears spell out your name on my face
Who's going to wipe my eyes

My hands are full with my ******* life
You Took the knife out of my back and cut the rope that i climb to you

Its my fault, i put you above everyone
So i lost everyone trying to please you

So when i lost you,
That's i all i knew..

Seriously what am i left to do
But smoke alone wishin i was with you

Every new day but i stay feeling the same way, day after day
Laying here, smoking my pain away

You came and went as you please,
I just can't tell you stay or stay
away

Just come see me today,
Let me put my pain aside to be by your side

Slide through,
I want to hear everything you've been through

Don't let me tell you what to do,
I can see your doing fine,

Baby, your so fine,
Oh' i wish you were mine,

You tried to fix me but you weren't god,
You tried your best but we both wanted different things,

I wanted to give you a ring but you wouldn't take his off,

I don't have much to offer
You're my parole officer
Let me take the stand
Let me tell my side

I stand for you,
It's crazy when we we're together
We couldn't stand each other

we act just alike,
You don't need to tell me what you want,
I know what you like,

I known you better than i knew myself

Now I lost myself,
Accompanied by my own thoughts,
Wondering if you thought about me
Or about us

Trust me I'd get my smile back if you just text me back,
I got a giant tree on my back

Climb on let me show you all to life,
Spend the night with me one more time, so i can hold you one last time

If loving you was a crime then I'd be doing life,
Making you my wife, to the death bed
Off with my head, anything just for you to be mine

Do you mind? i want to spend my time with you,
I'll pay the fee for the cost for your attention,

Life with out you feels like detention
Like walking with out a destination

Not to mention these walls caving in,
My emotions being caged in, im just craving to be in your presence

Baby just come home
I'll leave you presents at the door
You can take the bed, I'll take the floor

Stuck here wishing we can get food like we used too. 
Smokin in the car like we used to,
Being laid up like we're supposed too

We met not that long ago but we just connect,
Just sit here next to me & talk to me.

I miss you looking at me,
I miss you needing me like you said you did,

I see you needed me for the time being,
The time for him being away,
He left for a fact & you take him back so fast

**** you dropped me, That was fast,
They didn't really last,
I see between you & I
You have more class,

I really miss your ***,
Not sexually, but mentally needing your thought process

We think a like,
Brushing off everything that came between us, Only that one thing that thing that came before us

The life you had with him,
No matter what he came before me

Sidelined & substituted by the home town hero,
You gotta play the bad guy to get to be the good guy,

Saying goodbye to my heart when I lost you,
Now I'm going in blind,

I hope you don't mind to hold my heart for me'
Out of everyone you took the best care of it,

The time I've got to spend with you,
It wasn't enough,
I need to see you one more time,

Baby it's hard to type another line,
I can't do any more lines,
I cant help but have you in mind,
I just wish you were mine...
