I’ve used the words time and time again
to say exactly how I think and feel
Those words are all I have left to myself
and I wield them like a weapon and a shield
But those words won’t stand up to the truth
There’s nothing I can say or do to fix things
and not a damn thing makes it any easier
Time and words have failed me far too long
since here I am still missing what I lost
If I could have seen from somewhere else
some perspective outside my own head
I might’ve found a way to have
exactly what it was I wanted
Instead I found myself too weak to fight
And all the ordeals I’ve faced since
I can’t help but dwell upon
how much easier it all might be
if I still had you near to talk to
But the words drove us apart
They may be all I have to hold
but these words I just can’t seem to trust
