The Music is blasting,
I am Trying to forget,
I am Trying to relax.
So I'm focusing on the lyrics,
Remembering every word,
If only I could stay here forever.
Three words whispered on Long Distance
trapped between Truth and Pretend, deceived,
10 letters that drift far beneath the Skin
with a Taste of Bittersweet
I don't sing,
I just listen,
as he calls me ' Baby ',
I listen to the singers voice.
Inhale, Inhale...
If only life were this easy,
Easy as lyrics in a song,
Lyrics that help me find a way
As my Heart explodes
I Pause and Hold, Hold it in
I press Replay for one more Chance
The Truth, I hit Reset
The emotion the Singer is expressing,
feelings of a deeper Sense,
real Life and Struggle,
He is expressing his Love to a girl
Someone punch me in the Side
so I can explain why I can't breathe...
I listen,
to a Love picture-perfect,
deceiving, a beautiful Mess
but he shows no Love for the Mind or Compassion
shifted Ideals or Values as my Heart gets broken,
he prefers a plastic Foundation
as I try to confess
I turn the Volume up
as he sings of Yesterdays,
and hurting People he says he needs,
I wonder,
Is the Singer trying to make me realize,
Emotions I may or may not know ?
Exhale, Exhale ...
If only life were this easy,
Easy as lyrics in a song,
Lyrics that help me find a way.
I listen,
listen to the Music,
as I feel a pain crawl over me,
I listen,
and his Song comes to an end
The Singer tries to love everybody,
and that's the part of his Lyrics
I may never understand...
but I know that all the words he said to me
were just pretend.
