You took all my faults
And scattered them across the floor.
My heart was lost,
But you were different.
Yeah, you were something more.
I wish I could have seen your colors,
Wish that I had kept the score.
I was lost in her false opulence,
I couldn't find the door...
-
That had to be
The best summer
That I could have experienced.
It was all "all of a sudden!"
Had no time to find the fear in it.
And you were
Crystal clear in it
And I was
Deaf, not hearing it.
You gave all the signals
But my heart was not adhering it...
-
I wish that I
Had just been ready,
But all that love
You had was heavy.
I was killing
My old feelings off
But my ex wouldn't let me...
I remember
You came to get me.
Out of town,
Low down,
You'd let me
Hold your hand
So grand,
Yeah, I felt like your man.
I knew then that
Maybe you'd vet me...
-
But I was still so young,
And kinda stupid...
I should have listed more
To that cupid.
Her love was lucid.
I wish I knew it.
I wish I knew then
That this love was true shit.
But I just blew it...
-
Now all the tiny pieces line the floor.
I was blinded by her reverence,
Afraid to just explore
Something more...
I've never seen
A love like that
Before.
I was frightened by that mirror.
Ignorant of all it bore.
-
Man...
That was the summer...
I wish I hadn't left that school,
What a fuckin' bummer...
That choice was fully on me,
And I was just fuckin dumber...
I should have kept away
From that which kept me
In a slumber...
