Turned off twitter and turned on Tweet.
Let her music heal my soul while I sighed to the beat
Reminisce on the one that got away who I love no less today
Fast forward to the replacement killers that came after his reign
A bunch of pretty faces and slick charm
Wolves in transparent sheep's garb, doing less good and more harm
Each a dissonant melody, destroying my energy;
I set each song to fire in effigy....
Sit and watch the ashes blend.
And as the fire burns and the smoke clears I mourn him and not them
Check my text, see a message from the next who's promising he wants to love me past the passion and the sex.....
Close my eyes and try to plan my moves like I have no regrets
Like I haven't been promised that before only to end up with my eyes all wet
Heart all in distress
Flat lined so many times I must have nine lives under this chest
Back to the text.....
I try to answer with no passive aggressiveness
Too many times I respond with the anger over a former mess
Frustration and pain have overstayed their un-welcome like uninvited guests
The assholes just stick around like a bunch of low-lives loitering
And I can't tell if the walls that surround my heart are meant to keep them out or me in
Doesn't really matter because the end result is by blocking out the rain I also can't feel the sun
And if I continue to live like this then all those wolves have won
...Nah. I'm not having that shit.
So I'm making a vow to tear these walls down brick by motherfucking brick.
....Oh wait, I forgot about the text...
I clear my thoughts and my heart and I type back "Yes....
Just know that sometimes I might get a little crazy, tired and complex,
And I'm not ashamed to tell you I'm a work in progress."
