Meatloaf

 

 

Another attempt at poetry.  I've even got a cool guitar thing to go in the background of this.  But I seriously can't rap.  But check it out.  You might like it. :) 

 

I put in both my earphones and drown out the universe

Because the words you wrote to me couldn’t hurt any worse

I turn the world off along with every thought of you

And honestly this song won’t be like the last one I wrote for you

 

You see I’ll never forget that night, both of us lying in my bed

When you apologized for the first time, it echoes in my head

If you were sorry, you wouldn’t let it continue like this way

My eyes were fiery, trying to keep every tear at bay

 

Because you might think me weak or too emotionally unstable

But it’s obsolete to get you to understand what I say, though

And this hurts, and it’s even harder for me to admit it

And it’s worse because I was warned and could have avoided it

 

And did I make a mistake or a wrong turn along the way?

Was my time a waste?  Because I don’t believe I can make you stay

And it’s him, it always circles back to this other guy

And I can’t win, no matter what I do or try

 

He’s not the one for you but I suppose I can’t make you see that

And I gotta be there for you when it all starts getting bad

I can’t predict the future but I know how it’s gonna go

But regardless where we end up I really want you to just know

 

This is not what I intended, can you please just hear me out?

Because the way you and I ended is just bringing me down

It feels as though all I have done is just fruitless, it’s useless

It’s hard to imagine how far I’ve come and I’m confused and still clueless

 

You can continue living this way,but I know that you’ll regret it

You see change can take place if you’d just fucking let it

If you’d walk away from your past you’d see it’s not half as bad

We could make this connection last if you tried as hard as I have

 

And it’s pathetic because I just think too much about it

To the climatic point where I almost start to doubt it

And all the lies and bullshit are starting to creep up from behind

And it seems that all it’s done is cause a mess inside my mind

 

On my rooftop sitting alone just taking in the sunset again

Hoping you're not feeling as terrible about this as I have been

But at the end of the day I'm not empty or totally sad

I just wish it weren't this way, I wish I could be your man

 

But I could honestly never hate you or resent the fact that I

Did everything I could to make you stay and make you mine

And I’m sorry, love, I just can’t carry on this way

But I’ll try to stick around here and keep waiting for the day when you say

 

That you were wrong and all you want to do is work it out

And that the words in this is song are all you can think about

I'm fading away, away and you're running out of time

Because one of these days I'm going to have to leave you behind

 

I'm sorry about the honesty and that this is how you'll see me

But writing is my only remedy since you and I can't be

together and it's okay I just need to pick myself back up

I can't help but say nothing is worse than unrequited love

 

You said you never wanted to end up losing me

Just admit you never intended to end up choosing me
