Take me back to the night we met,
The one night I'll never forget,
When my heart, beats out of my chest,
****, my mind won't go to rest

Take me back to the night we talked
Each secret, getting unlocked
Poured out both our soul and mind
Strangers, now intertwined

Take me back to the night we fought,
Hitting each other's weak spot,
You promised it won't be the same,
And baby, I was to blame

Take me back to the night we agreed,
No matter how much I plead,
I could never make you stay,
Everytime, I had to make way

Take me back,
                          Take me back.

You're too afraid to try,
The fear of abandonment lingers,
So you decided to say goodbye
Without closure, favor,
Nothing to savor

You lifted the burden
But little did you know,
That the truth is
It's never easy, letting go

So you're left feeling empty
Nothing but skin,
Soon to realize that detaching
Is a deadly sin,
Its true men make mistakes,
that I can bet,
But baby, you haven't tasted it yet,

The human bond is a work of art,
You'll know how strong it is
When you pull it further,
Apart.

Pain
Is fundamental
Only when I'm hurting
I could write up something sentimental

I would purposely hurt myself
Just to know if I still feel
Maybe this time,
I can cry for something real

Its torture,
I'm certain
But sometimes you need hell
Just to get a little piece of heaven

Appreciate the pain
Even though its suffering
You could learn a thing or two from it
And make your life worth living

I’ve never received a flower
Or even a rose
But I’m a guy
So it’s acceptable I suppose
No kisses
Or sweets
No treats
That signifies ones feelings for me
No token of ones love
But I have gotten
Disappointment
Watered with hate
Planted in betrayal
Fertilized with lies
And maintained by fakes
Roses are Red
But my roses are dead
And crumble beneath my feet

Is it love,
When you always end up fogiving?
No matter how painful it was
to see the other person leaving

Is it love,
When all you see is perfection?
Never paying attention to thier flaws
Giving them nothing but affection

Is it love,
When you wish them the best?
Even when it means it isn't you
At least you know that they are blessed

you don't understand
how much it took for me too finally ask you out
and how happy it made me feel
when you said yes
i was so happy
finally, happy
you told me it was mutual
you felt the same
now it's beginning to feel like a twisted game
you go away on summer camp
you say you're having doubts
i thought you'd at least give us a chance
but it was over before the month was out
why allow me to believe you liked me
when you only saw us as friends?
why allow me to smile and be happy
when you were just waiting for it to end?
what do you expect me to say now
when i'm sat here crying?
knowing you had no intention
of ever really trying
there's nothing more i can say
now than it hurts
and that she won't be the same
because it was me who loved you first

Why is it that when you say you love me,
Your eyes tell me you don't?

Every time you say all these things you would do,
But you won't

Things keep coming between us,
Sometimes ego, friends or the loan

Why after all this time I've known you,
I feel like I'm stuck in a different zone?

I can't help but loathe the way I feel,
A book on the dusty shelf,

I try so hard for someone to know the real me,
But do I even know myself?

If you care –I know we're strangers
But would you escape this town with me?

We could learn new things –compassion, tenderness,
Hunger for the ultimate, how to be carefree?
