The decisions we make, we must live with them all
God always tests his strongest soldiers,
But even with that I feel like I’m always losing
And love is something for which I’m always longing


Then there was you
With whom I thought this treasure might be found
But was I wrong as ever
You couldn’t even be real with me when I was around

So, I say **** it, I’m done
I don’t need you in my life
But then it’s just me and my thoughts
And a bunch of restless nights

So I try to move on and be a stronger me
But if I can’t be myself then there’s no reality

Hopefully, one day she’ll come walking into my life
That one girl who I can make my queen and my wife

But, I can’t let it be easy
My heart has hurt too many times
I’m sick of feeling my stomach twisting
There is only so much I can take

Can a heart be broken beyond repair?
Is there enough time to heal such wounds?

To be honest I feel lost without you,
But at the same time, I’m better off too

tell me why things are this way
its hard to get that girl to stay
yes i do wear my heart on my sleeve
but i do it so that you can know the real me

i let down my walls as easy as sand
in the hopes on winning your hand
but more in the hopes of winning your heart
longing for the day of that new start

but then i find ive grown attached too easily
i start to feel you push me away
and the tears from my heart roll down speedily
the sunlight from your smile disappears from my day

this isn't my first time down this road
ive felt hurt many times before
now im cold with no one to hold
and to live without love hurts to the core

Pouring out like the amazon
My emotions come unraveled
Do I let myself get attached too easily?
Or, are my simply not built up enough?

Always taught to be a gentleman
Though it never ever works
Nice guys finish last
Because they have too much class

Guess it’s time to be an *******
Tell me what you think
Dazed and confused
I don’t know what conclusion to jump to

Love is a powerful word
But an even greater sentiment
A lot of people don’t get enough of it
And for those who do, they seem to push it away

But if I was given love
That I would greatly cherish
For I’ve been seeking it out
And it has proven illusive

So the conclusions I draw
Come only from what I know
Love seems to come and go
And leaves you in awe

Don’t fall too hard, or fall too fast
Continue to always have class
At the of the day the nice guy wins
So for ill just be content within

Shame and regret
That you can bet
I’ve crossed you and I feel the wrath
Of karma kicking my ***

Shame and regret
That you can bet
To know you’re unhappy with me
Kills me slowly inside

I’m sorry I can’t be completely perfect
I try my best to be all I can be for you
But for those two things
I have no Shame and Regret

Laying in this bed without you in my arms seems rather cold, brought about by a desire to hold onto perfection be it for a moment or a lifetime, cherished forever in the existence of this man

And to even think I quite possibly stand such a chance leaves one to think of the courage of a lion

Doubt and confusion run through my mind with the likes of a fire running wild through lush forestry

Even one as confident as I, still do not possess the likes by which to tame the fire, but

Reassurance brought by a smile on her face, with an ability to warm my heart with said smile, keeps this lion’s heart beating with a feeling of purpose to one day

Acquire the heart of the lioness, whose smile ignites the fire burning within the lion, bring humility to his heart and the courage in his soul to always make the effort to try
