The One That Gets Away
Pushing me away harder than a revolving door
It has been 2 years but we still thirst for more
You make me feel desperate and that's just not me
I'd give anything to mean it when I say I'll leave it be
I'm angry at myself for knocking on your door
Should of known you'd slam it in my face like before
I keep trying to make all this make sense
But all I'm ever left with is you on the fence
Trying to pry myself from you but I've grown so tired
You said you refuse to loose me guess this makes you a liar
I'm so ing sad, are you even sad at all?
We always shoot off like a rocket then I'm left to watch ashes fall
I don't wanna say goodbye again because this time it's forever
Forgetting you has been such a grueling endeavor
Second chance biggest regret but you still don't care
Because you assume that I'll always be there
All you've really ever done is prove me wrong
But I'm still thinking of you playing all the sad songs
Assuming you'll realize what you're about to lose
All these dangerous thoughts that I continue to amuse
Don't you know I could help pull you out of that place?
My soul it aches and aches and aches
It seems you've forgotten me like a case of amnesia
Truth buring in my chest like acid with no magnesia
They say that ex's are ex's for a reason
But somehow it feels like this is different
When we approach we always intertwine like English ivy
All I have left is you know where to find me
I know I shouldn't end my writing like this
But I'm deaf to my counsious so I carelessly take risks...
