No More Jokes and Games

Yea, we all cry sometimes

While writing down these lines

Rolling over and over in my head

All the memories of what I once had



I'm a changed man

Ran away from those bullshit games

Came to remember what my purpose is

To help you out the best that I can



Tell me anything

I will listen without interrupting

Contemplate suicide

As long as you call me before you do



Give me a reason

Something to make me want to stay

I hate this down

I hate this place

I always want to run away



I want a love-or a lover

I want a care-or a carer

Someone to treat me with respect

Love me for me, not who they are when they are with me



I want a true statement

No more lies- those I dispise

I am so sick of the drama

Kill me know or drown me out

I don't wanna hear it, don't make me shout



Hey there girlfriend

How was your day today?

Did you have fun?

Can I give you a smile to stay?



Believe in me the best you can

I won't give up, no

I am not that kind of man



I want to sleep next to you

Under the moonlight

Under the twilight

Benieth the stars, oh yea



I want to hold you in my arms

Make you feel so safe and warm

I'll give you anything

I'll be the prequal to what this life can bring



I want a statement that is true

Like the words, "I love you"

Plastered on every road sign

As I drive alone tonight...
