What I Was Trying To Do
Folder:
M FoR ViCtOrY I can take the insults every day or so,
feel them burn and sting and let 'em go.
I try to fake a smile for the world,
let them see my masquerade of a girl.
There's nothing left else to know,
Please just let me go.
I can let a few tears escape out,
let them drop and cause more doubt.
I'm still a mess when you left me here,
nothing else to keep me near.
I would have left, if I knew about you.
There are times when I scream too.
Get me out of this place,
let me run from this face.
I want to fly and be free,
be by myself, all by me.
What hurts the most,
is having your memory so close.
I feel you pull away,
The chill at the end of the day.
It's always seeing your smile at night,
when someone else holds me tight.
All I tried to do,
was erase you.
But it didn't work, and you're still here
now I'm stuck in my own fear.
I wish that I could forget,
how it was to be "it".
but it will live on forever.
What hurts the most,
is you now being so close.
I can catch your scent on breeze,
watch myself bend like trees.
Here's to never knowing,
what we could have been.
And here's to always loving you...
it's what I was trying to do.
