just walk on by
for now
maybe this one time i'll get some sleep
my mind waltzes to the beat of a different drummer
while your heart beats to the thoughts of another guy
i never thought it would be different
for now
you were my everything
while everything was alive and still breathing
and this gospel you breathe and preach
is of stail air and the smell of alcohol
someday i knew i would be looking over you
and saying to myself
"i'll regret every decision made.
from this point on the barrel
is at my head. pointed straight
at you for encouraging me."
i'm nothing more than a line
a line in your past
i'll take my nerd glasses
and life before then anyday
over one that made me feel disgusted
