Yesterday
Shouldn't this be simple?
I got my graduation ring but my mind's in a haze.
Dazzled by her beauty, I can't help but stare 'cause she's never there.
This day on Saturday she finally answered.
I want to straighten things out with her but I might as well join the millions of rejected
soldiers.
You know, the ones who died from a "heart attack," the ones that were driven insane,
especially the ones that feel no pain.
I look back on yesterday, now today, and I find myself looking for a place called home.
Conjured all of this up in my imagination but all I could do is watch her fade away.
Out of my mind, out of my heart, but how do I still have a crush on her?
The Lord has always been with me and my family but I've strayed away from my faith.
I hope he can forgive me and lead me to her heart... wherever it may lay.
