Downfall
I wrote this while i was going through a really hard time with an ex-girlfriend.
Downfall
i can't think like this anymore,
thoughts escape through my mind's backdoor,
i thought the lock was securely in place
but somehow my demons have been released again
what did i do wrong?
how did i let it go on for so long?
i put a wall up in spite of my love
and could not rise above
to let the light of my true feelings shine through
christine, you were my everything
the only good thing in my life
but i let you slip through my fingers,
blinded by the high and seduced by the ease
into watching our relationship spiral into nothing
all this time has gone by
each night, alone in bed i cry
forced to relive the mistakes i can never take back
and wondering how i could be so naive
to think that without effort you would never leave
i need to be over you
must understand that we are through
in spite of my unchanging love
and the things that i wish we could share
forever holding your beauty within my stare
my mind is in overdrive
i can't figure it out, no matter how hard i strive
to find a reason for these lingering feelings
in the end, they will be my downfall
