Forgetting to remember
How to surrender,
Counting til November
When life is older,
Wanna go further
But I can’t stay sober.
Falling asleep to
Falling in my dreams.
Trying to find you in the
Wind,
Forgot what its like
To win.
Everything keeps blowing
As everyone keeps going,
Can’t let anyone know,
That you want to be
Known.
Older but still afraid.
This bed is never made,
Lost in the shade,
Underneath your
Wrath,
Can’t get past the
Past.
Bloodstains close
To the floor,
Notes about
Departure
Close to the
Door.
I’ve gotten you
All wrong,
No one here
Wants to
Last long.
You had nothing to offer
But money to offer
As an offering,
We always showed
Up but we never
Learned how to
Grow up.
The pulpit is the culprit
And anything you say
Goes.
You wanna know what my
Heart is about,
But inside it is a
Drought.
I am listless over
Making lists
About the changes
You never made.
I used to have fire
Way back then,
Now we keep going
Back to those days
Called then,
You don’t want
Those good times
To end but
All your friends
Have friends
And being alone
Never ends.
I can’t let it go
All those things you
Did in the snow.
Love wasn’t felt,
The water would
Melt,
Is your name a
River,
Cause you are the
Giver,
And no one here
Knows Your
Future.
Calling it out,
All the times
We doubt,
Heart is a little
Broken,
And that is
Certain.
Used to have fire,
Now we get coffee
And talk about
Desire.
You moved away,
But you never
Got away from
All the thoughts
I think about you,
We let you stay
Around for free,
But your anger
Was a tragedy.
Still talking like a kid,
All those things you
Said but never did.
Still losing the thrills
Cause I keep taking
Your pills,
Will try to remember
What it will be like
To surrender,
This land is your
Land.
I know about love
But I forget about
Mercy.
If I forget the past,
I trust You will
Make this life last.
