Take Me Back
sorry, i fell asleep, promises he didnt keep,
i am left here to weep,
sow without reap, strain without gain,
nights without sleep, pills for the pain,
pain for the numbness, my skin, i cut this,
trying to feel what was real’s why i done this,
sometimes i wanna say **** it,
but then i reminisce on a kiss,
and get sucked back into this,
and its still you that i miss,
even with the brokenness,
wish we would have spoke on this,
callin' me back four hours later at 2 AM,
i swear nothin gets through to him,
and all i want is his attention,
to see him for more than a minute,
and not to mention, all the times that he blew me off,
a lame excuse at me he’d toss,
and though i’d always catch it, dont expect it,
cause im startin to lose my mind over this.
take me back to when it was really me that you missed
