When It Comes Around
My thought reek of bloopers
All I see is blue birds
Ever since you left me
Maybe I deserve it
A southpaw has to be used to this
Sleeping in the mud
Reminiscing the dirty games I played
Staring at the dice
you flipped on me
I hate how the tables turned
Used to mishandle the lighter
look at how I got burned
Flames of anger
puff out of the words I breathe
I was stupid for thinking winners never lose
I've learnt the best lesson in the worst way
I know my stars were cursed
for how I kept many in the dark
Cloud of lies
Crazy how I rained promises on them
Only to let ignorant fairies drown in disappointment
Spare me the regrets
I deserve this stunt
The wrongs I did hid in my shadow
The future looks uncertain
Still feeling reluctant to change
from those ways
Honestly
Breezes from my past don't feel good
The maybes will probably fade
If I start being true to myself
and the few in my world
I pray the earth helps me now
Or it will be forced to hold me down in the end
