Nearing My End - I Thought Your Grass Was Green
Give me an excuse or a reason
To overcome these waves of emotions
Friends come and go like season to season
Dealing with vile clashing commotions
I thought your grass was green…I’m hopeless…
I thought the grass on the other side was greener than ours…
I thought your grass was green…I’m faithless…
I thought the grass was greener on the other side – my low spirit cowers
Away from God’s light – I’m scared it might reveal my distress…my abyss
Pre-chorus: I thought your grass was green…I’m hopeless… (Oh funny, I
thought you were a good person…I was there for you through thick and thin –
you do not love me anymore)
I’m through with you...you…tonight…I long for God’s light (to shed on me…we
were in content & we were pleasant)
Chorus: Ahhhh….Stop being a tease…
Ahhhh….Being a tease…(my heart broke into two)
Ahhhh….Here’s a wound to mend
Ahhhh….Please, put my mind at ease
Ahhhh….You don’t see me, nearing my end…
Ahhhh….Nearing my end…(you’re left without a clue)
Pre-chorus #2: You turned out to be so mean…you were so heartless… (you
make me feel like nothin’…make me feel like someone…somethin’ – your words
pierced me like a pin on the floor)
I’m not haunted by your callous night…don’t pick a fight (with me…we were
innocent like a newborn infant)
I thought your grass was green…I’m hopeless…
I thought the grass on the other side was greener than ours…
I thought your grass was green…I’m faithless…
I thought the grass was greener on the other side – my low spirit cowers
Away from God’s light – I’m scared it might reveal my distress…my abyss
I’m left to rot; things got out of course of course…what are you dying for?
We have no met our end yet…when will this arduous adventure end?
I’m shot with remorse of course; I’ll give it what I got – I love you to the core
We’re entitled to overcome these waves of emotion – love is the end…
I thought your grass was green…I’m hopeless…
I thought the grass on the other side was greener than ours…
I thought your grass was green…I’m faithless…
I thought the grass was greener on the other side – my low spirit cowers
Away from God’s light – I’m scared it might reveal my distress…my abyss
My sins I’ve committed is linked to stress & selfish ambition;
I promise…I won’t kiss my abyss…my pride is broken –
My confidence drives out my frustration & it is my mission
To promise you that I will be fine – I’ll recover again…
