WAITING …

I thought I could stay hidden
in my small unknown habitat
but you sought me out,
yeah, you turned me into a big world prospect …

Could I possibly say those were the days?
Life was a one-way fast lane
- just the two of us;
sounds impressive, right?

You tore me out of my shell
with your smooth, slick talk;
Your lies sounded better than the truth
- you said what I needed to hear, so who cares?

What do you think of me now?
If we could go back in time
would you have ever been with me?
Would you still have broken me from within?

I look so composed, don’t I?
Well, I was crazy for you;
I had nothing but love and affection for you
yet you rudely brought my world crashing down …

The city’s dark;
the seconds terribly quiet.
Every word you ever uttered
echoes in my head and how it hurts …

This sure sounds pitiful …
