One More Try
Everyone is bumped and bruised
And comes with their own baggage
You’re never there to see me through
Sit back and watch me lag
Hit my heart with harmful words
And try my damaged emotions
Do whatever you prefer
Showing boldly your lack of devotion
Watch me drown in this ocean
My breathing is getting shallow
There is no hope for a potion
As I am tangled in the mallow
I reach out for one last grip
Again I’m turned away
Just one kiss from your lips
Would begin a new day
Once again my heart is bereaved
As tears fill my eyes
I know you will not grieve
But I had to give it one more try
