Two am finds me again drunk at waffle house
thinking of all the times that we spent making out
in cheap hotel rooms and in our dancing shoes
and we always had the time
to do a couple lines to erase the doubt
And those days are such a blur
living like little kids cuz that’s all that we were,
no matter how we tried that’s all we were…
no matter how I try its all such a blur

And so the time passed with the sound of broken glass
Now its whiskey that’s running through me so fast…
And less than three couldn’t mean less to me
When all I can do is fucking sing…about you

And I’ll never forget you no matter how I try
the way you kiss the way you sighed
the color of your skin always made me give in
I was johny cash drawn to your sin
the nights fucked up and the mornings hung over
and your love was a plastic four leaf clover…
the sun in our eyes like a dentist’s light
but a glaring lie was all it was… that’s all it was.

And so the time passed with the sound of broken glass
Now its whiskey running through me so fast…
And less than three couldn’t mean less to me
When all I can do is sing

And my friends say
You’re free now
And my friends say
You’ll move on some how
But all I want
Is to be wrong
And in your arms
Forever young…
Forever young.
I want to be wrong

And now you’re kissing her, and my nights taste worse
Than week old Heineken drank in reverse
Left in the sun so insincere to rot and dry
and cement my fear, so say good bye
Left in a hotel to rot and die
There’s no hope here so say goodbye
Now you say you never loved me that way
So I won’t hold on to some day
Yeah, you say you never loved me that way
So I won’t hold on to some day, some day…
Some day some day

And so the time passed with the sound of broken glass
Now its whiskey running through me so fast…
And less than three couldn’t mean less to me
When all I can do is scream…

that is . . . beautiful. shocked

it paints a brilliant picture of sitting at waffle house and being drunk and almost obsessing over something.

I love it.

I love how vividly you describe things. It gives me that exact feeling I've had before.

Keep writing and sharing, dear. smile

I love the imagery in the piece. Also, you got a nice rhythm there going. I hear violins in the song, but that's just me.

should you ever want a challenge, I could see a shakesperean sonnet in your future - iambic pentameter and all.

I could never get the swing of it - but you could - this here shows that you could.
