The Wrong Way (Again)

by Ixora   Apr 29, 2008


Everywhere i walked i saw a sign or two
they led me back and forth
to disturbing thoughts of you

and wherever i walk i think...
everyone i see keeps saying..
just how could i
have let you go
...the wrong way

don't want to live another day
of these thoughts just pushing you away
i wished words could've spoken right
to keep you here with me tonight
but i cant take it
watched you go
wont make it
just letting go
the wrong way
the wrong way
again

three a.m. I'm sitting here
my heart is in despair, in fear
of another hand that holds you
like he holds me
but his touch wont make the pain go
his mouth is cold, my little john doe
there's nothing left for us to breathe
the air has left
but thoughts wont let me be

cant take it..hes gone
wont make it..alone...

i let you go the wrong way (again)
they say how could i..pretend
cant stand to see these windows shut
the doors kept locked
inside these walls..alone
yearning for a tear that stays
behind you
as i walked away
again

whenever i walk they see
everyones asking me
how could i do it all (again)
how could i let you go
the wrong way...the wrong way
the worst way
again.

-I was taking a shower and this tune popped in my head. I guess you can't hear it but these are the lyrics...i haven't written a song in a long time but this one is very...close...to me. Hope you enjoy.

    As I began to read this I thought to myself .... this would make an amazing song. And then I come to the end and voila!

    I can feel the music being set to these lyrics .... the words just flow magically.

    It's sad, impacting and heart wrenching and sticks to the reader's mind. I will definitely remember this piece for sure.

    Thanks for sharing and I hope to hear it put to song someday .....
