One,
Two,
Three,
Four,
And I walked out the door.
Put on my coat,
Put on my tie,
Take off my smile,
Take off my glasses to see my eyes,
In this one the hero dies.
Don't look at me,
Don't pretend that you know me,
You don't,
And you know it,
It's something you need to admit.
Don't worry about me,
I'm fine,
A cig in my mouth,
And a skip in my step,
The tobacco starts to give me more pep.
A tear in your eye,
None in mine,
A fire is shot,
A drop of blood on the ground,
And all of the sudden no one is around.
The loneliness is driving me mad,
I start to ask myself,
Am I better off alone?
Or better off dead?
I could've sworn there was something else she said.
When we first met,
You wore a smile,
I had this face,
You thought it was me,
But there was something that you failed to see.
I was hiding,
I wasn't what I seemed,
Everyone wears a mask,
And leads two lives,
All of us have different,
Wants,
Needs,
And drives.
I started to think,
What drives me,
Doesn't drive you,
But what drives you,
Is something I never knew.
Where did time go?
Did it tick by?
I lived my life,
And then another,
My sadness is something I tried to smother.
A passing glance,
A lonely goodbye,
A silent hello,
This is how my day goes,
Not one silver gun or red rose.
The sound of footsteps leaving,
I heard it before,
Once before,
In another life,
Before another strife.
I need direction,
To keep my mind off the pain,
I was overreacting,
Over the sorrow,
I always said that I'd deal with it tomorrow.
This is how it is,
And how it always was,
I know what to do,
I know how to do it,
It is one mark that I never could hit.
I've drone on,
Far too long,
About what I want,
And what drives me,
Maybe this time I'll finally let my heart free.
Maybe...
Maybe tomorrow.
