I’ll take you home after all

So I’ll break the ice with you
Say something smart, sophisticated
Maybe something witty and cute
Or maybe what I say, you’ll just refuse
I guess I could start out with an introduction
Maybe tell you a few things about myself
But in the end that will get me nowhere
I guess the simple things just never work out

Should I take a chance on you tonight ?
I guess I could….and see if this works out

We’ll take it slow for a few days
Let it settle, let it settle down
I’m clumsy and easy to give up
So don’t worry, your not missing out
Well, Forever is a long time to wait
So I’ll wait for you to come back
I’m easy to please and too hard to live with
So it’s alright if you choose to go

So I’ll apologize ahead of time
I’m not one for holding grudges against myself
I give out too easy on the first date
I’ll lose you in the first five minutes
I guess I’m headed for an uphill battle
Cause I think I already lost this round
Your already moving along without me
But it’s the simple way about you that keeps me trying

Should I give up on you tonight?
I guess I could…but that would leave me with something to regret
----------------------------------------------------------

Pretty pathetic

Stare at the clouds, lets look up at the sky
You were right all along, it’s a beautiful night
We laughed as the light in the sky dimmed out
As the cars drove by, we sang our hearts out
We shouted in the distance so someone else could hear
We sang mostly love songs and songs about our fears
Let the radio fade out to the sounds of the morning
We’ll wake up the world and never tell our story

The moment has come for us to pack up and leave
But something feels different, something must be
The air is so dull and there’s nothing but silence
I knew this would happen, we shouldn’t have tried this
I was never so happy, then when I was inside of your arms
Now your back is turned to me and you’ve never seemed so far
The distance between us is unbearable now
I’m Still waiting for you to return, to come back down

Pretty and pathetic but I take what I get
Everything I have ever known, I’ll never regret
Any of the times that we shared in the past
I’ll never forget, never put those memories to rest
Calm but contagious, the brush of your lips
Everything I have ever saw, I’ll always miss
All of the times we shared, days spent together
I’ll never forget, I’ll hold on forever

Stare at the chair, you used to sit by my side
It’s lonely as hell here, I hope soon you’ll arrive
You’ll come back from your absence with a new resolution
But everything I say to you will be nothing but useless
We sat there in silence for what seemed like hours
I tried everything I could, I brought the pictures and the flowers
I could never bring back the flare that you once had for me
I’d leave you out of love, you’d stay out of sympathy

If ever there was a time for me to go it would be now
I kid myself to think that you might someday come around
I could drink all the alcohol and go for a walk
Stumble around to your house and try to get you to talk
I’ll hold back the tears as you finally tell me the truth
You loved me out of jealousy, You tell me I was used
I’ll cover up my wounds with drunken words and a drunken stagger
I’ll make my way back home and drink up the last of my liquor

If I could….I’d rip myself apart
If I could….I’d get rid of my love for you
If I could….I’d take the easy way out
If I could….I’d forget everything about you
----------------------------------------------------------
I wrote both of those last night. Im not in a terrific mood...but i'll get thru. I'll let the lyrics speak for themselves.
