where did i go wrong?

Over My Head (Cable Car) - The Fray

I never knew, I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy

I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head, over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along

But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head, over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head, over my head

With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and its effortless

Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves

And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head, over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind, she's on your mind


___
i'm losing you and it's effortless.
would it matter now? would it matter to you?

fireflies. freedom.

~* music: blind - lifehouse
~* mood: sleepy

fireflies.

seems so distant now those stars in your eyes
or were there stars that used to reside there?

these oceans now calm giggle at the breeze
that pass by its tiny waves carrying memories
of years i have held so close to me.

i smile back at the deep sky as it burns
lightly as the sun departs for the night
to hold me tight in its warm, windy embrace.

i love this, holding hands with the ones who
stayed amidst my errors, my ways, my flaws;
those who rescued and lit the way for me.

i look at them with so much love, with so much marvel.
i keep their memories in the light of the firefly
that appeared on the same night that changed my life.

the little firefly that tried to warn me of you.
the same firefly you hoped to catch with your hands.

i can't say i don't miss you.
though i can say that i'm stronger than you ever thought i was.
i'm stronger than you'll ever know i am.

the winds have changed and things are going my way.
each day is a blessing that i've kept inside brown pages,
black ink, yellow light and night music.

each day becomes a light i shine in the night.
each day becomes my peace, my heaven, my nirvana.
each day becomes each prayer i lift up.

because i never forget the good things.
because i haven't lost my faith.
because i believe enough to live another day.

nothingness.

i don't have to wait for you to leave.
i'm leaving you
because after tonight, there's no turning back.

i can't do this anymore.
i just can't fucking do this anymore.
it's over okay?

don't tell me i'm stuck. don't tell me i'm not getting over it. because chances are, you're the one who's standing still.

i still remember all the lies you've told me.
___

So let me on down
'Cause time has made me strong
I'm starting to move on
I'm gonna say this now
Your chance has come and gone
And you know
It's just too little too late
A little too long
And I can't wait

~ jojo - too little, too late



there's no trust, there's no faith. THERE'S NOTHING.
