Shoes and Love

Give me a sign
Give me a sign I'll be ok
That I won't break down
That I won't hurt myself

He's just a boy
Who cares what he's done?

I care

I cared a lot for him
I wanted to marry him
Have a family

But screw MY feelings
Everything get thrown in the trash again
Along with the shattered heart
That has been broken so many times
That tape and superglue can't fix
Open my eyes
Let me finally get the picture
To find the peace I've always wanted
And to make my sadness melt away

Love is like your favorite pair of shoes
For instants
My favorite pairs of shoes are my blue converse
But like it or not,
They can't stay forever.
You will have wonderful memories with the beautiful shoes
But then you wear them out so much that you can't wear them anymore.
Like a relationship,
You will have your good times
And your bad times
The ones you want to remember
And the ones you don't.

I just want peace

I just want to love the things I have.
Like my blue converse
I love them to death
I get sad when there's a smudge on them
But I fix them and make it better
Make them look new again

And I go along my day
Loving what I received
And I always think
Today is just a day
Go through it,
You have a new day tomorrow.
