I Was

Folder: 
closet boxes 2002

Thoughts do make me weary

feelings make me want to cry

but i'm sitting here still breathing

and it's you that makes me try.



You were my lesson

to show me to my pain

but I was your folly

that drove you insane.



Idealism pushes me ahead

my shortcomings pin me down

but I listen in the silence

and it all sems so profound.



You were my pride

that had to fall

I was your lifeline

whenever you called.



Despair makes me feel hopeless

love lacks it's sweet embrace

but I wonder where i'm going

while I stumble at this pace.



You were my love

that walked away

I was your future

that begged you to stay.
