my words defied all the truth,
something I know for life,
ever since I spent all my youth,
and offered this heart to a guy,
how could I get the love I want,
if he set my bars too high?
and when I find better than anyone,
he's in the back of my mind.
and peace is non-existent each night,
his voice was the white noise I hear,
the ceiling has his almond eyes,
his name from mouth of my peers,
and I feel the stain of his touch,
on my jacket he used to wear,
back when I stood and watch,
my heart he broke unaware.
and the ache has been long gone,
but he was the Excalibur,
I cannot take him off, nor anyone,
but only one I thought was my Arthur,
oh, I want to hear from his side,
that I was worth nothing to keep,
so I could stop thinking he is mine,
every time I can't fall asleep.
