i know it's not the same and that today is just another day
to tell you that i love you and i promise that i'm not okay
please just hear me out and let me say the things i need to say
then i'll be on the road unless you tell me that i need to stay
i said that i was done and there was nothing left to figure it out
but i was wrong and have a few more things i need to bitch about
yeah, i may get sad
yeah, i sing off key
but nothing will replace the way you used to smile and look at me
it's 5AM and here i am just staring at our pictures
i haven't said it out loud but, yeah, i fucking miss her.

don't call it a comeback

back and forth is all we have ever known. i thought it was comfortable, you said it was inevitable. either way, i'm glad we're on the same page now. you can ask me how you look in that dress and i can tell you that you look like shit.

who said chivalry was dead?

oops.

you always were way too pretty for your own good.

and i meant to tell you that.

but i was too busy fucking your best friend.

i have a secret, and i'm not too sure how far past my lips this one will go yet. It's my own so if i let it go, i'm only h(urt)elping myself. i took a peek into your little world today because I felt like i needed to be brought back down to reality. i like seeing you happy again. the world deserves to see your beautiful smile more often.

this is so old and overdone.

i woke up today hating the smell of this town. decided to get up and take my life into my own hands again. if only i could see you for just five minutes. i would kiss your forehead and remind you that my heart is still in your clutch. after that i'll let you go about your business. i'll drive down the highway back to my town and try my hardest to hold back the tears this time. i swore i wouldn't come back to this place but you need the pain to keep you sane from time to time. my sweet, can't we just fall in love tonight? my hands are cold and you were always so good at keeping me warm. ill sneak kisses on your cheek, and you can look at me from the corner of your eyes and smile. put your head on my shoulder and make me feel complete. just like in the movies.

show me a light that shines brighter than your eyes the day you kissed me on my face and swore you'd never leave my side.

your words are lies.

i had a dream that i got to lay with you and kiss your face and neck.

it felt so real.

even the part when you said it wouldn't work.
