lyrics

Should I fight for what's right or live in despair
Throw my conscious aside let my words hit the air
When we both know talk is cheap, take it from me
I was lost, never found, no one figured me out
The ghost of my past always lingers around
To make sure my forthcoming is safe and sound
Help shelter my mistakes six feet underground

You swear to me with your fingers crossed
When pointless fights tend to exhaust
I have no choice but to take a loss
The price I'll pay at any cost
When your sad, I'm mad
Reminisce on what we could of had
We both agreed the chemistry was bad
Your remarks and my temper go hand in hand

The blank stares were the nail in the coffin
I wont change my mind cause this happens more often
Then it should, I've come to grips with my words are misunderstood
I'd move on if I could
I know you care I just wish that your heart would

Is it to late to debate the fate that I made
I learned to find some betters days
Don't really care what you have to say
