Reflections

Maybe I spoke too soon
Or the light was just right in the room
That night, I see it clear
The rules had all but disappeared
When I told you
That maybe now I’m ready to do
The things we swore we would
And are you?
But now I’m nowhere near
The shell of me from yesteryear
And I don’t wanna say it’s over
But I don’t think I’m the one
You told me I could be
And I don’t think I’m the son
My parents deserved of me
Maybe I’ll live on the run
From you and this city
There’s not a doubt in my mind
You’d be better without me
I’m gonna drive away tonight
Every good part of my life
I don’t deserve you here
It’s best for all, I disappear
And I’ll befall the morning light
And hang myself out to dry
With all of my own clothes
Wrinkled up and decomposed
And I don’t wanna say it’s over
