I said that I was over it
but then the feelings came back around
a sick feeling in my stomach
falling tears on my hammock
my safety net is sinking under me
it won't be long until I'm on the ground
and everyone can see
because you let me jump
you let me fall
you said you would catch me
so where were you
cause I was hurting
crying out for you
I screamed and shouted til my voice dried out
but it was no use
how can you be so oblivious
why can't you see how I feel
maybe it's because you've got a girl
and she's your entire world
but when she leaves and you turn back to me
will I still be here
I try I try to walk away I do
but some part of my heart will always stay with you
I know that I am the only one
you don't feel this way too
but some part of me
just won't give up on you
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
when it's just you
all on your own
you're not trying to be someone else
for the people behind your phone
that's the you that I know
the you that I love
for me that'll always be enough
I wish you could say the same about me
because if I was then we wouldn't be here would we?
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
it's sad that I haven't learned
after all of these times I've been burned
my mother taught me and I shouldn't forget
that love should never have to be earned
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
la da da la da da da da la la da da da
whoa oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
tell me what you see
when you're looking in the mirror
are you happy now
some way somehow
hit my heart like a snowplow
knocked the wind out of me
broke me into pieces
as my heart rate increases
and my mind reaches its peak
this is not who I wanted to be
and it's all because you smiled at me
la da la da da da da da
la da la da da da da
you let me jump
you let me fall
you said you would catch me
but you let me fall
you let me down

PoetryI write a song every day as a journal of sorts. It helps me cope I guess you would say. I post them on the app called Rhymers Block. Some of them are very personal and based on what is going on in my life at the time, while others just come to my mi...
