Louder Then Words
paper hearts can never foil
the obvious from happening
you speak of despair
like you come
from a place of happiness
you fuel me
like the water liquor burns
we move
like the fire of hearts
young and torn
after all you're left for dead
you better off coming off your meds
the sweetest thing you said to me
is actions speak louder than words
i'm no longer yours to forgive or forget
living like cliches
the secret is to forgive and forget
counting down the days
the minutes you mark
i'll be here when the hours are dark
roaming like children
screaming of riddles in the park
easy like noah never parked his ark
gritty like paper hearts
we never fold
the sweetest thing i was ever told
"actions speak louder then words"
after all you're left for dead
you better off coming off your meds
the sweetest thing you said to me
is actions speak louder than words
i'm no longer yours
to forgive & forget
i'm no longer yours
to live with regret
