Take Me Back to the Start
Location
i've tried to forget him, really i have
but whenever its quite my thoughts drift back
back to times when things were a dream
a cloud of happiness and thoughts of cream
i was left in the dirt
alone in the rain
who is he to leave me in such pain?
all i can do is feel the hurt
the pain and the sadness
the rage and the tears
my green eyes are grey
with the guilt and the fears
i miss him i miss him
i needed him here
but when all was said and done
i wasn't as dear
dear to him as he to me
just some dumb girl
to be used and abused
without a plea
plea for happiness or joy in her life
someone whose love is worth only strife
whose jealousy and vanity will torture her
haunt her for all her life
even yet i hope and i pray
that God will send me, give me a day
to hug him and cry
and be held in return
cry away the pain and the nightmares
and forget this whole thing
or to look him in the eye
and take up on wing
i see his name
his face is ever there
his words ever haunting
im losing in his game
he said it was for my own good
i wish it were true
however my color has changed
from Red to Blue
maybe maybe
we'll see we'll see
why dont you slay me
and leave me be?
tears have run dry
my stomach shriveled up
my eyes dull and listless
tell me one more lie
for my sanity
for my pride
tell me you love me
be my guide
you were always dangerous
like a tiger
when you grew serious
'i don't care'
words like a knife blow
claws on my chest
don't you understand
i didn't care that you were best?
at everything, i didn't mind
but once i lost it
temper said words
in which fault you find
one time
seven words
time stops
on a dime
i understand consequences
you don't understand forgiveness
in the end
God is the only witness
i did everything you asked
always loyal, always true
comforted when you were blue
i planned my life around you
now the calendar's empty
my head hurts
no food can tempt me
take me back!
back to the start
when we smiled and laughed
when you loved me truly
back to my happy heart
the nights are lonely
no one talks like you do
people are hurtful
back then, i could confide in you
the chill in the air
freezes the pieces
of my life
all as cold as your stare
him him
you you
do as you do
excuse my pain as a whim
laugh at my sorrow
pretend it's not there
wake up tomorrow
without a care
i thought i could trust you
imagined you always there
in ignorance believed
you'd be there for me too
stupid stupid girl
to believe all the sweet words
the promises
all lies! strictly for the birds
take me away
to a happy place
full of grace and play
where daises dance and bluebells sing
give me a timepiece
a potion
a spell
take away the feelings only he can quell
i am laid low
because of my mistake
penance penance
this is my parting blow
i'm sorry, can i say it much more?
but nothing will change
you want no part of me
you've closed the door
i close my eyes
and swallow the poison
who could love a pitiful girl,
who only cries?
hateful
resentful
jealous
callous
who could ever love a girl like this?
certainly no a boy
with shining blue eyes
and the sweetest kiss
i understand
but i'm so confused
there was no contest
so how could i lose?
i'll always be scum in your eyes
no hellos or goodbyes
only pain, only hurt
is there nothing i can do?
you won't speak to me
miss your messages
miss your hugs
i'm too low to be
your girlfriend
your companion
your friend
your partner
i said no for a reason
at least i can say that
so when this happened
i can combat
your friend's terrible words
they aren't true
i am still pure
no thanks to you
your pressure
your guilt-trips
your pathetic lies
all words on your lips
i hate you
i love you
i cant be without
i cant live on with
the snow is so cold now
my body so weak
if i lie for awhile
perhaps sleep will allow
allow a moment of rest
i need the peace
let the frost cover me
you're the best
are you happy now?
happy to be the best?
pleased that i am so hurt?
six feet in the dirt
you would have me beneath you
like a dog
or just avoid me, the plague
like a coming fog
i quit your game
my heart is a hole
my body remains
take aim
silver bullets
you remember?
you always recalled my faults
but they were as obvious as it gets
lay be me
as my last request
kiss my brow
and let me rest
away from the sorrow
away from the pain
leave me to lie
ne'er to wake again.
