You Can't Wake the Dead

by Carisa   Jan 23, 2007


You were insane
You were so messed up inside
I swear you were crazy
The darkness in you never would subside

But there was something about you
The way your eyes held on to me
Like you were looking for something
That always seemed to be just out of your reach

So I took my heart and pressed it in your hand
The only thing that I could do
And from then on it was decided
That it would always belong to you

And now all I have is your shadow
That probably doesn't mean shi+ in your eyes
Just something for you to say as you hold on to her
While I wait for the tear stains to dry

    You're so complex. Love her. Be with her. Quit acting like you care. I LOVE him. You LOVE her. So it's over. Yay!

    I might have said that. Because it's true. But yeah, I'm happy. A lot happier than I was.

  • Kewl. As long as you have fun and are happy.. and i know that you are going to come back and say "zach" is such a better man and you are soo much happier and all of that.
    Well, it won't faze me for as long as you are happy.
