I always said that I could never fall for someone in one night
But your eyes felt like home and I longed to be wanted
I tried to hold on to the rush but it shattered in my grip
The feelings i felt, weren't mine to be felt
You dropped her like a bag of bricks you could no longer carry
But I looked at your strong hands and didn't understand
Falling in love became a reality when I hit the ground crying
Trying to keep my breath hostage though it cries to be set free
But I fear letting go of your subtle fragrance
Flashbacks falling to the ground
Blurred image of your hand grasping another that does not belong to me
I always believed we were crafted so that only our hands fit
Led to confusion by the way your hand warms my whole body
The past can not be changed similar to the way a mind can not be fooled
Hypnotized by first but all I want is seconds with you
A second to sit in silence
Stuck in rewind but I thirst to pause this moment
I taste guilt but blood is thicker than water
She was only a house and I felt a home within his skin
My mind is consumed with thoughts of you
Great decisions didn't come without a couple sips of regret
Change has become my best friend
And your worst will come before your best.
