Want, wish, demand, require
Ought, take, command, desire
Hoping, stealing, dreaming, and pleading
Coping, healing, feeling, now needing
My mind is a veritable vortex of emotion
Don't look so alarmed; you caused this commotion
Wait, stay, live, try
Anticipate, gravitate, give, cry
Feeling, flushing, regretting, and thinking
Dealing, bluffing, forgetting, now drinking
The storm is dying down, it's so tranquil
Time kills all, let's be thankful
Argue, lie, forgive, make-up
Construe, divide, relive, break-up
Releasing, dismissing, ceasing, and grieving
Escaping, missing, decreasing, now leaving
End of the line, time to let go
What once was is all you'll know
