*Catch 22

I can't say I'm surprised,

Cause in the end of it I knew

there always was a chance

that I might not

be right for you;

even so,

I know

by the way

things are going

it'll be sooner than later,

see you later,

with those crocodile tears...



But still those eyes

and salty soaked face

swiftly put me

in my place

and I'm drowning

Right beside you...



So long ago,

once set in stone

so far away

from that place

called home

with the comforts few

and far between,

it's a bitter realm

where dangers lurk unseen,

So steer me clear

once you've moved on

To save the pain

of a world gone wrong

cause though hell may take me,

you'd just break me

so loose your hold,

and I'll let go...
