U.B.B

I like it better now that everyone’s the same, But I still know you're not. We are all failures and everyone is a disgrace. Everyone’s a waste of a space and even the most beautiful angels have fallen from grace. No one tells the truth. Everyone is jealous of youth and we can't win them all.



I wish I was still waiting for this year to come,

I wish you'd understand where I'm coming from.

143 months since I dreamt of hope

And you think you can't cope.

Don't act happy to see me but by all means smile!

I know you've been miserable this whole time.

I see too much of myself in you,

And this is concluding proof.

That if I was as blind as you,

This could be love.

If I smiled like you,

This could be love.

Why think silly thoughts,

When I can't sleep?

Wasted time I wish I could keep,

Set aside for a moment like this.

Precious and charming,

Resting in my arms.

All this time I've been waiting to smile.

I've been miserable all the while,

What’s left but to realise,

The beauty contrasted in your eyes.

Something is familiar about your arms,

Bringing me back to the childhood I lost.

I don't care if I don't go far,

I've got something to stay for.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This started off quite depressing, but when i went back to change it I was in a much better mood because of the day i had =D
