legacies travel with us
everywhere we go
its not something
to be ashamed of
its something to celebrate.
we never make the right choices
when it comes to our hearts
its true we seem foolish
when we decide when to stay
or when its time to vacate
He didn't mean to hurt him
this kid from rhode island
he's not all that bad
just confused about real life
and being another young father
They fell in love last week
or at least one of them thinks.
Although he loves her with
all of his heart
They aren't really together.
David wants to be a champ
he wants to be a player
He hasn't had enough of life
to feel jaded and worried
or happy to have his child
Ray wants to be hero.
The guy who saves his life.
He wants to be everything
to just one guy.
To drive him absolutely wild.
But David never opened his eyes.
he never realized the gifts he had.
He took them for granted he threw them away
He gave up everything Ray wanted so bad.
But Ray, has to go his own way
has to learn his own fate
on his own time
on his own day.
He's being his own man
he needs to learn his path
through trial and error.
Ray's going his own way
He's doing the best he can.
Ray, never called me back.
after he left a few weeks ago
He seemed like such
a honest guy
But his heart was misplaced
His lover, his one life stand
seemed obvious to what Ray wanted
David wanted to play his game
and Ray just braced
for the pain he'll have to face.
Now I'm not trying to preach
but honesty has its way with things
David told him not to fall in love
but there he was again
crying his heart out.
He's taller, than any guy I've kissed
he's as smart as you expect one to be
But when it comes to a fight
between the player and the heart
you know, it always ends in a rout
But David never opened his eyes.
he never realized the gifts he had.
He took them for granted he threw them away
He gave up everything Ray wanted so bad.
Two years go by, and I don't know
maybe I forgot about them both
I look down at my phone its seven oclock
and a strange number
seems to pop onto my screen
You were wrong Evan, this voice said
he loved me for a year or two
then Ray started crying over the static
David had left him
and now he knows what love means.
Love means waking up alone
when you hate the world
yet picking up the pieces
every night
just to hope you'll hear his voice
Its about praying for a miracle
making sacrifices
trying everything you possibly can
and choosing the devil
like you never had any choice.
