Live to be True

by Zach Buenger   Dec 1, 2008


I live to listen
I listen to learn
I learn to impress
I impress everyone
Everyone but you

You are my reason to live
You are my reason to forgive
Forgive myself for not doing enough
Forgive myself for not doing the right stuff

Stuff that would make you fall
Fall head over heals for a guy like me
Me, the one writing this
Me the one you have rejected to kiss

Kiss, the touch of affection
Affection, the feeling of two lovers
Two lovers that used to be
Used to be, the past tense of now

Now I sit alone in the dark
Pondering my deepest thoughts
Thoughts of the one thing I could have done
Knowing that it is the one thing I start everything with
Knowing it is the one thing I did not do
If I had, I would be with you

I have learned to speak softly
And I have learned to listen loudly
I don't know if it is too late
I don't know if you've forgiven me

But I'd like another chance
To draw you a new picture
It's time to start brand new
This time it will be true
