Description
the truth is, nothing is ever guaranteedeverything comes with some price to pay
and hearts are unavailable to be warrantied
when lost, stolen or broken
we are in no position to ask for our money back
we brought this burden upon ourselves
this thing called love, we figured we'd give it a try
because it's better to have loved and lost
than to spend the rest of your life wondering why
the only thing we can be sure of is the past
the future is never certain, and each obsolete detail can decide our fate
i never knew how i felt about not having the power
to control everything that takes place
but not knowing, being kept in suspense
it's what makes life interesting, and worth living
there is no way to go our entire lives untouched
heartbreak is unavoidable, and we can't shut it out forever
it's time to embark on our next endeavor
once we've loved, we are never the same
some souls become missing in action, during this taxing game
each mile takes a toll on our hearts
and we never expect it, it usually catches us off guard
it's amazing how we can be so oblivious to everything that's taken place
almost denying everything subconsciously
we won't give the tears the time they need to stain our faces
because maybe, just maybe, if we move on fast enough
we can avoid the feeling altogether, until it simply erases
it's just a continuous blur, that never stops replaying
that's what we tell them when they ask what's wrong
but the truth is, I've been hurt and lonely for so long
I've never given up hope that you'll come back to me
when the time is right, and the winds are steady
the tide won't come to shore until it's ready
we need to get through this together, as one
and i have faith in the battle we haven't yet won
but you need to know that I'm here for you, always here
and although those sighs of yours have made your thoughts very clear
i know that you don't know what you want right now
and i'll wait until the end of time if i have to
because all i know is that you captivate me
i know that over the years, you've helped me to see
those reflections of trust and those shreds of hope
not all lost, because i know you never meant to hurt me
I've cried so many tears, but not one in vain
because i know that these tears help to keep me sane
continuously flowing down my cheeks
it helps to distract me from what my heart truly seeks
comfort from you, and the feeling of being loved
but, I'm prepared to hold out for awhile
because i'll be here waiting, when you realize all you've left behind
the paths we choose to take are never clearly outlined
and you just need some space, a chance to clear your mind
and i understand that you need to cope with this new chapter in your life
you're frightened and scared, but that doesn't falter me
i'll be here waiting, until you decide who you want to be.
..did you know that some can go their entire lives without being loved?
it's hard to believe, but at the same time, it's something we already know,
don't deny it. and never regret anything, because at one time,
it was exactly what you wanted.
