Like a Dog

You come knocking on the door,
But I won't let you in,
I gave you much but refuse you more,
You gave me less to expect me to rebegin.

You've got nerve,
I'll give you that,
To come asking for what you don't deserve,
Hoping I'll let you back.

Oh doctor, you must have gotten sick,
Somehow scratching down my gate,
Like a dog wanting past my wall of brick,
How can you forecast me to ameliorate?

Oh I'm sure,
All that you saw,
Were waterfalls of cure,
Elixir to your every flaw.

I can't fix your pain,
I can't help that you're addicted,
To let you back would put my name to shame,
So why should I fix it?

You put me in this circumstance,
I might as well be in the brig,
So take this second chance,
And make it big.

You have to take it,
To make it,
But remember not to forget it,
Because it is the last you'll ever get.

Race the Sunset

You are everything,
Nothing less,
This serenity you bring,
I must digress.

Your voice is so tranquil,
Carrying a melodic cadence,
For your hair I'm so thankful,
Engorged with radiance.

Your eyes sing to me,
In perfect harmony,
Your heart feels so free,
Where I always want to be.

Your lips are so enticing,
I long for their taste,
Your arms are ever so inviting,
I want to dive into your embrace.

It is there that we'll chase the sun,
And melt away together,
Racing the sunset we will have won,
Where we will finally sleep forever.

Somebody Told Me

Somebody told me once before,
That life catches us all someday,
If you aren't ready for what's in store,
It will waste you away.

That I better watch my back when I'm sick,
And when I forget how to feel,
'Cause I may be moving quick,
But it's always on my heels.

I know there's a calm before the storm,
But darkness always merges into light;
The cold eventually becomes warm,
And something has to be wrong before you can make it right.

There's just one thing you should know,
That I no longer have a dream,
In my sleep there is nothing to show,
I just hope you get what I mean.

Now all I have is a reason,
A reason to believe it's all over,
My life is in the changing of it's season,
I'm finally ready to get older.
