Silent August

by Brandi   Nov 10, 2008


And we've gone back in time to the place where i was lost and out of breath.
the place i ran to so fast but when i got there, there was nothing left.
above the past but below the present and away from each clocks round
the inner mistake that i had battled but my truth was never found.
beyond comparison to another, with no mistake he could have made,
yet all roads led to wrongs and our fate just had to fade.
a minute passes into the hour and alone i sit and wait.
hoping for a chance for new beginning or a run-in once more with fate.
lie wide eyed awake in bed with no chance of peace of mind.
scripts replaying as blocking has finished..this love we shared was not blind
i pray to the sky that questions my faith that soon enough it will come again
my hopes tied to my wrist in blue color every round has frayed ends
smile to the wind as i turn my cheek and i let all words fill me with doubt
write em down rip em up forget about them for i can't change what im about
cut off the strings, though I'm not ready and i don't want to let this go
I've been told that i need to and it hurts me but i need to let the credits role
think about it once in a while when i see happiness together in two
shattered dreams inside my nightmares is what it was like when i lost you
coming back for more even though I've failed trying once before
he was never one to criticize though when you're lost it doesn't matter much anymore
unable to see or be heard but i don't know if I'm talking of myself
for i never heard a voice within him since silent words of August nights
after a high of such force your sobriety becomes lost
unable to function in reality get your happiness at any cost
behind the back hurts more than the stab given by the one you love
if i could i would say sorry and let it happen when push comes to shove
having to read between each line to know you're not missing out
and build yourself up for the ever uncertain letdown of having to be without
and so we've gone back in time where my realitys had once been forgotten
august was time for hope but confusion got in the way so i fought it
