after all the time i've wasted...after all the things i've done...
it was just another broken record...another tv rerun...
took me time to realize it was all a mistake...
until emotions caught up and began to break...
one day you'll think back at what could of been...
as sadness envelopes and you're left to begin...
down a road of regret where i cannot be found...
cause i'll be gone in the morning...without a sound...
i have nothing, i leave with only the shirt on my back...
to leave is my only option to get my life on track...
each day that goes by, it hurts less and less...
optimism and hope were the drivers, this i confess...
reality blindsided me leaving my pride in a tatter...
realizing that my dream had no longer started to matter...
i walk this road left to mend my broken bones...
as those without sin refuse to throw the stones...
for they know the pain, they had been there before...
towards the horizon i go left to wander this earth forevermore...
thinking back to how it was, seeing how you acted...
i don't know why i let myself get distracted...
it was right in front of me the entire time...
but i guess my ignorance had me sublime...
doesn't matter now, i have grown in light of it...
i'm only human as some may say, that i admit...
i leave you to your wares and wish you the best...
just so you know, i am unlike any of the rest...
my head is held high no matter what they may say...
when the sun rises tomorrow, today will go away...

I never thought it would come back in this way,
Kept it out of mind, did anything to keep it at bay.
The darkness disappears, she shines like the stars,
Shining light on the darkest of scars.
Her presence makes the world a happier place,
For I am a better person everyday I see her face.
At night, she's the last thing I think about, the first in the morn,
If I was to ever lose her I'd be left in complete ruin, torn.
She means so much but she'll never comprehend,
As each day that goes by my heart gets harder to mend.
She speaks of others that sweep her off her feet,
But I know they will never make her complete.
We laugh and joke when we're together,
I wish that those moments would last forever.
To be the knight that saves her from her tower,
Is all I think about, every minute of every hour.
There's no better feeling than knowing I made her smile,
That's what makes all my pain worthwhile.
A friend I shall stay as my feelings call out with a yell,
But who am I to say what fate will bring, for only time will tell...
