Why Do I Lie

Folder: 
Songs

Who is this person

that stands acrossthe room

could he be the same one

that I gave up too soon

why does this longing

not ever seem to fade

why can I not help but think

this may not have been my first mistake.



I tryto hold them back

the feelings, the tears i'll never cry

I try to say that i'm alright

you don't believe me

I try to make sense

of this less then perfect life

but still the longing holds me down.



Hello, goodbye

it was so nice to see you

call you, I promie i'll try

hello, goodbye

i hope to see you again soon

all along I wonder why i lie

goodbye again.



Goodbye again...oh again.



Why couldn't I see

then what I do now

the realization failed

to grasp my mind somehow

and on the sidewalks

the chalk spelt out our names

but rain always crashes down

and nothings left he same.



I try to simply let it go

the years, the placed that we went

I try to prove that i'm the same

though I know i'm not now

I try too move on

forget this neverending fight

but still i'm here shackled down.



Hello, goodbye

it was so nice to see you

call you, I promise i'll try

hello, goodbye

i hope to see you again soon

all along I wonder why i lie

goodbye again.



Goodbye again...oh again.



Oh... It's so confusing

not amusing

always bruising me

and I wonder why I try

so instigated

melodramatically proclaimed

why do I play this game...



Hello, goodbye

it was so nice to see you...



Hello, goodbye

it was so nice to see you

call you, I promise i'll try

hello, goodbye

i hope to see you again soon

all along I wonder why i lie

goodbye again.



Goodbye again...oh again.

Goodbye again

Goodbye again

Goodbye again

...oh again.

k I love this part

"I try to make sense
of this less then perfect life"

k it would sound a little better to me if you left out the promise part, but thats just me, however I love this bit

"Hello, goodbye
it was so nice to see you
call you, I promie i'll try"

oh and this

"hello, goodbye
i hope to see you again soon"

and

"Goodbye again...oh again."

I like this bit too (some parts more then other but yeah head hurts making it short)

"Why couldn't I see
then what I do now
the realization failed
to grasp my mind somehow
and on the sidewalks
the chalk spelt out our names
but rain always crashes down
and nothings left he same."

"melodramatically proclaimed"

(this took me like what 10 mins to read, can't think)


Much Love
