There was a time and place,
|
Where I never thought,
|
I'd leave my own hometown,
|
But those days finally,
|
Are dead and gone,
|
It was never my intention to stay there,
|
Oh no,
|
|
There was a conscious effort played by me,
|
To disown anything I see,
|
There was a girl I knew,
|
Way back when,
|
Who says she doesn't know me anymore,
|
These are the lies the things you never mention,
|
These are my past mistakes I'll stay away from,
|
|
These are my thoughts written down on paper,
|
It's my only savior,
|
From not saying what I want to say,
|
These are the thoughts that are on my mind,
|
Moments that haven't yet been defined,
|
And I don't know if you could ever understand,
|
These are the things I can't say when were alone.
|
|
There were countless hours on the telephone,
|
My ears were ringing from the dial tone,
|
There were flashing lights,
|
People staring,
|
There was nothing I could ever do,
|
These are the lies the things you never mention,
|
These are my past mistakes I'll stay away from,
|
|
This is the truth,
|
The only time you'll here it,
|
I write it down because it seems so hard to say it,
|
|
These are my thoughts written down on paper,
|
It's my only savior,
|
From not saying what I want to say,
|
There are my thoughts that are on my mind,
|
Moments that haven't yet been defined,
|
And I don't know if you could ever understand,
|
These are the things I can't say when we're alone.
