Change Of Heart

I've been thinking that I wasn't ever ready for this,
Another mistake that I can add to the ever-growing list.
But I can't help this feeling.
Never knowing,
But I'm still hoping,
I know you pray for a change of heart,
But I keep going.
But I can't help this feeling.
When there's a will then there's a way,
Try again, come back another day,
Twenty two and nothing new to show for it.
I'm out of depth, I'm in too deep,
Swallow my words, time to admit defeat,
Forcing what I always knew would never fit.
A conversation is long overdue,
This might mean nothing to you,
Just once for crying out loud,
Please can you hear me out?
I tried and tried to make things right,
So forgive me if I can't forget this overnight.
Never knowing,
But I’m still hoping.
As I keep my faith in a shot in the dark,
You watch my life quickly fall apart.
Pulled at the strings now watch me come undone,
Try persevere and overcome the fear I had,
This year instead I’ll never quit.

So you can’t be upfront and say it how it is,
Gave me nothing in the way of an explanation,
Never thought it come to this.
I’ve been feeling a weight and it’s pulling me down,
Fallen underneath the waves, won’t be long before I drown.
Bracing myself for the worst-case scenario,
(Worst-case scenario)
Put on a brave face before cracks begin to show.
(More cracks begin to show)
I'll sleep on what I've said,
Because it's not a true reflection of everything I really meant.
Light the fuse and let me go.
But listen up,
There's nothing you can do,
Time waits for no one and no one is waiting here for you,
So listen up, listen up.

Truth Be Told

Can someone come and pick me up?
‘cause I’ve been feeling pretty low.
I won’t beg for you to stay,
Don’t promise you'll wait for me,
I know I’m selfish but I’ve got my own priorities.
There’s a storm in my head and a hole in my heart,
The stars are yet to align, conflicted from the start.
Life never gets easier at all,
Just a little more heavy and harder to control.
The highs and lows they come and go,
So do what’s best for you and know,
We were a drop in the sea, part of the ebb and flow.
Nothing you could say,
Nothing you could do,
Nothing changes so I’ve made up your mind for you.
Gone with the wind,
Truth be told I’ve been fading from you.
Trust me dear when I say this comes as no surprise,
Not the first to be gone before I said goodbye,
You and I clipped our wings, it’s time to set you free,
I'd say I'm sorry but one day you'll be thanking me.

Took one look inside your eyes,
Felt a weight lift from my mind,
You gave me strength,
It all made sense when I'm with you, when I'm with you.
I don’t know if I can lose myself again with you,
I’ll keep on falling for you.
Wish I could go back before,
Before I knew who you were,
Despite the pain,
I’ll do it all again to be with you, to be near you.
If I’m the one you wanted,
Then you had to let me know,
Let’s finish what we started,
Or it’s time to let me go.
I don’t know if I can lose myself again with you,
I’ll keep on falling for you.
But it’s been a while since I saw you and smiled,
A failed pick-me-up,
I think I’ve had enough of missing you,
But I keep falling for you.
Oh I should’ve known,
That’s how these stories go.
Nothing more to me than misery,
I should’ve known.
I don’t know if I can lose myself again with you,
I’ll keep on falling for you.
But it’s been a while since I saw you and smiled,
A failed pick-me-up,
I’ve really had enough of missing you,
But I keep falling for you.

Yours Truly

Sat inside an empty house,
All the lights off, the coffees long gone cold,
Can someone come and take me away?
‘cause I can't seem to get a hold of myself,
Collecting dust like books up on my shelf,
Can someone come and take me away?
So here I am feeling sorry for myself,
Writing to make sense of everything I felt,
And dealing with the hand I'm dealt.
I've always thought there's more to me than meets the eye,
So why do I pretend to like a life that I despise?
Everybody said ‘do what makes you happy',
But I've lost sight of what that is and what I could've been.
I put my life on hold for nothing,
Broke the rules in search of anything,
Everybody said 'do what makes you happy'.
Maybe I've been away for far too long,
Forgotten what it's like to live and belong.
