Hold me in your tight embrace as the saddened November rains begin to pour,
You see I'm only safe if I'm right here by your side, this I do not confide.
It's just sometimes I feel like I'm on my own, with having to fight for my own,
but yet I'm still so young and things just seem so far away. It's hard to imagine,
but this world has me, and has me good.
And so I let the rain soak every inch of skin exposed hoping to absorb as much
of it as I can in order to drown out my lies I so easily lay upon your mind.

Hold me in your tight embrace as the saddened November rains begin to pour,
I'll hold on as long as I can, but patients is not one of my virtues.
It's just that simple how I let you go, even when it was crystal clear you were near. Even till this day I catch myself singing our song, I stop myself only to be
interrupted by this chorus playing out of tune, and the beat so far from on the
dot. To know you were true was a joke at the time, but know I sometimes
wish I could have you back, but thinking of that only hurts.

So I forget..
And just leave it at that, cause wishes never come true.
