Elastic
Of all the simplest of things. Sometimes love is a lot like socks. Some are long, some are short. Hell some even come up to the height of knees. Some are bland. Some are colorful. Baring the fruit of comforting something bare enough to be considered as precious. These devilish things, socks. Sometimes they create more problems than they are worth. Coming apart at the seams, Getting caught between your toes. The hassle of constantly having to stop and readjust your shoe when no one is looking. They come in all sorts of color and sizes, these crazy things called socks. Sometimes that one size fits all is just a lie. In time all things wear. Just don't be foolish enough not to enjoy the comfort of the simplest of things. This at all isn't important during the height of the day. But the thought is necessary as it conveys comfort. A necessity that goes unnoticed unless you've had any of these problems. Belts on the other hand can be a different hassle. Not fitting tight enough. The leather hole wearing thin often tearing. Sometimes these dang things prove more trouble than they are worth. Stupid things. But out of everything that I've said one thing couldn't be truer. If ever I was to become overweight. You'd be the pair of suspenders that hold my pants up when my belt can't fit anymore

Socks Or Suspenders (Revised)
Sometimes, things wear out. Creating holes and gaps often complicating the simplest of things. Sometimes love is a lot like socks. Some are long, some are short. Hell some even come up to the height of knees. Some are bland. Some are colorful. Baring the fruit of comforting something bare enough to be considered as precious. Devilish things, socks. Sometimes they create more problems than they are worth. Coming apart at the seams, Getting caught between your toes. Constantly having to stop and readjust your shoe when no one is looking. Or flat out just take your shoe off and fix it. I thought I brought the right size. Carefully reading the label, Sometimes that one size fits all is just a lie. In time all things wear. Just don't be foolish enough to not enjoy the comfort of the simple things. This at all isn't comparing you to a pair of socks, no not at all. If ever I was to become overweight. You'd be the pair of suspenders that hold my pants up when my belt can't fit anymore

Socks Or Suspenders
The music was on and the windows were down The sun was shining on your face as we drove around And we almost hit a couple seagulls and we were a little too loud But other times it was okay to not make a sound We stopped at Target since you missed your dad's birthday So much for being a "responsible adult" and everything And then you cracked a smile worth writing about and turned the wrong way And even now I have nothing to say But whenever I turn around I expect you to be there And whenever I walk though Target I think of you in a bow tie and suspenders And when someone calls out from the kitchen I imagine it's your voice And then I accept that it's not since I don't really have a choice Because someone put their stamp on you, babe you're spoken for But whenever I think of you, I'll always think of a red bow tie in a superstore
