BACk 2 thE oLd wAy

I once became blind,
from all your pretensions
i once became deaf,
from all the lies you'd told me
i once became numb,
from all the pain you'd given me
and now i dont have to be like that anymore
ive been through all of those miseries
and now im gving myself a chance to move on..

my heart is not a piece of paper
that every time ill give it to you,
youll hold it like a scratch
and after u use it, youll tear it into pieces,
and the most hurting part is that,
youll throw it like you didn't use it
and will let the pieces fade in the air..

id waited for your return
since the day youd left me,
I'd been doing that for such a long time
without listening to the truth
and not facing the reality;
that you are not made for me,
we are not destined to each other
and we are not in the same path.
but i have accepted that
and it doesnt hurt anymore
it makes me feel better

and now im back,
to the old way..;
facing the world alone,
walking along with my shadow,
listening to the lonely songs of the birds,
counting all the falling leaves,
and as the day turns into night..
im staring at the gray sky above,
hearing the raoring thunder,
feeling the cold breeze..
and as the rain touches my skin
it scares me more
i have no one to hold,
and nowhere to go..
but if this is what God wants me to do,
to wait for that one special someone
with all the fears surrounding me
im willing to wait, to sacrifice
im willing to feel the pain
just to be happy again
