Torn out pages in a diary,
lying scattered on the street,
like lost lives in a lottery,
We were never who we meant to be,
Following the road the wide eyed optimist,
With flailing arms adorned with fists,
We were the ones that never could resist,
We fight memory just to exist,
The romances that we can’t defend,
Struck dumb, but left too numb to mend,
And always too blind to let it end.
To call it quits, and call us friends,
My heart won’t break, it only bends…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Feel the fire in my head,
lazer wire from my brain,
shot straight through my heart,
cut my head off from my hands,
not the life I wanted,
not the one I would ever chose,
force fed,
can’t believe it,
this distance I know we needed,
I’m not the one, but I am the one,
not the one, but I was the one,
I am only one,
I am the only one,
And now the lonely one.
