Mess - September Stories

Do you remember when you both first met?

That light in your eyes that slowly dimmed grey

That sensation that struck something new

How could something so strong, so faultless dwindle away?

When we’re raised in a generation that’d rather just stay a night

Despite the complications it brings

How are we then to take loyalty and companionship for granted?

Have we traded our morals for cheap drinks and one night stands?

Lost sight of what truly matters and strikes home

You have to open your heart to let love in

But once it’s been broken…

How are we then to do it again?

‘Cause you don’t know this mess that you made

(You'll always haunt his dreams)

And now his thoughts and regrets are displayed

(For everyone to see)

What you’ve known is different now

She’s gone and I’m sorry but you have to accept it

Life’s not always just

And I know that it hasn’t been fair to you as of recent

But you have to believe that it’ll be okay

And I know that it seems like everything that you ever believed in just walked

out that door

But I swear that you won’t one day think of her anymore
