And again…

No Matter What

Every night
cry away more liquid through my eyes
think about whats going to happen soon enough
and if I’ll be able to stand it when the time comes

Throw away
everything that pierces and intoxicates
try to kill the bad feelings I have felt
everything I’ve had to deal with
hoping that they will forever stay away

I cant take the pressure
I cant see myself through
now I know why I wonder
why I want to hang onto you
It’s hard enough being my age
having so much lost
I’ve thought about it and now I know
I’ll hang onto you no matter what the cost

In my head
memories and things that I have said
I cant separate the good from bad
or level great to worse
its like I’ve put myself into this curse

I cant take the pressure
I cant see myself through
now I know why I wonder
why I need to hang onto you
It’s hard enough being my age
having so much lost
I’ve thought about it and now I know
I’ll be with you no matter what the cost

It tugged on me wee little heartstrings.

Really. It did. Go Desi go~
