Life has knocked me down more than once And it feels like it does so every few months The years pass And I still feel like I'm on my *** I wanted help, I wanted someone to tell But that just put me through hell. When I thought it was all better My soul released its longing tether A man I once knew, to teach me better Left my life and my side forever. I didn't know what I was to do. You can't tell me it wouldn't have wounded you. When I tried reaching out no one was there All I could do was sit, and stare. My mess of a life was too much to bare If only you were to have seen me there. When something emerged from the dust. A future in which most would lust. I now see the beautiful woman the mess made I admire her and this time I won't let her fade.

For Her
Life has knocked me down more than once And it feels like it does so every few months The years pass And I still feel like I'm on my *** I wanted help, I wanted someone to tell But that just put me through hell. When I thought it was all better My soul released its longing tether A man I once knew, to teach me better Left my life and my side forever. I didn't know what I was to do. You can't tell me it wouldn't have wounded you. When I tried reaching out no one was there All I could do was sit, and stare. My mess of a life was too much to bare If only you were to have seen me there. When something emerged from the dust. A future in which most would lust. I now see the beautiful woman the mess made I admire her and this time I won't let her fade.
