Wrote this in July...

Thought it was pretty good...

The brain thinks hard trying to process
but the words that you're saying it can't digest
tears from my eyes like the rain from the sky
as you turn and walk away, i slowly start to cry

my words can't express the pain that's in my heart
all i'm stuck doing is thinking about the start
and work my way through till i slowly reach the end
and wonder what wrong, if only time i could bend

i'd pull the hours back and the months and the years
and wipe the tears away, and push away the fears
I never looked around and observed who I was
never took the time to stop sit and pause

just like water wishing i could inhale
slipping through my life, i'm reaching for the rail.
trying to hold on, i'm slipping off the track
i'm reaching for your arm, all i'm seeing is your back

chorus

the lamp post dim, the streets are wet
no ones around, i swear my soul just left
feeling all alone as I turn in my direction
thinking to myself, is there something I could mention

keep that in mind as we put this in reverse
rewind the scene back to the very first verse
my finger to your lips before you start to speak
wipe the tears away as you slowly start to weep.

push your hair aside and look deep in your eyes
pull you in close cause this isn't goodbyes
i'm not the type of guy to give up with trying
I'm not letting you go while you're standing here crying

i'm putting my foot down with you sharing how i feel
to make sure you know that what you mean to me's unreal
descisions in haste could leave a bitter taste
our love is still strong, this is but a waste
