I'd stay up all night Waiting for you to wake. Time difference didn't matter When I had you as my caffine. Talking about a false future And broken promises. Did you know how the book was going to end? I think we both did. I've given you enough lives to know how the story goes. Give up after the first chapter Then throw me in the trash. Just a distraction untill you find a worthy novel. As the reader Your perception on things is up to you. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm not right for your twisted mind And if so, i ask you to never pick me up again. Your eyes are no longer radiant over my pages As they were fueled by my sadness. I have run out of lives for you. So I have no more sadness.

False Future
I'd stay up all night Waiting for you to wake. Time difference didn't matter When I had you as my caffine. Talking about a false future And broken promises. Did you know how the book was going to end? I think we both did. I've given you enough lives to know how the story goes. Give up after the first chapter Then throw me in the trash. Just a distraction untill you find a worthy novel. As the reader Your perception on things is up to you. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm not right for your twisted mind And if so, i ask you to never pick me up again. Your eyes are no longer radiant over my pages As they were fueled by my sadness. I have run out of lives for you. So I have no more sadness.
