A Clever Title Isn't Needed

by hippiehxc   Jan 3, 2008


Breathe slow,
Breathe slow,
Just take your time.

Realizing comes in just an instant, understanding comes in a lifetime.
So when will it be once more that I get to call you mine?
Deceitful lies escaping lips, sin clogging arteries.
Broken hearts can't be stitched with fake apologies.
You think nothing is what it seems, it can't be that right.
I tried, but I couldn't do it anymore, I couldn't fight.
Try to keep me here as best as you can, you never will.
There's no turning back, the blood is on my window sill.

Breathe slow,
Breathe slow,
Just take your time.

I'll always be here, with a broken heart and tears in my eyes.
As I told you, I just hope some day you realize.
Realize that this was real, never once was it fake.
But giving in to you might have been my worst mistake.
You can close your eyes and I'll close mine.
Lets do this right, and remember our lines.
Lets play it out like a classic love story.
I'll be your Juliet with my heart worn on my sleeve.
You'll be my Romeo, oblivious to the the truth.
You see, you're love was just the kind you find at a kissing booth.

Breathe slow,
Breathe slow,
Just take your time.

Try not to be irate, don't blow your fuse.
There's no need, you see, there's nothing left to lose.

So just breathe slow,
Breathe slow,
Just take your time.
Just let me go, I'll try to be fine.
