Penning one last note
For forgotten years
Wasted all this time on shedding
Senseless tears
But now I've got the nerve
And oh I know you've heard
The boy from chapter one
Couldn't show it
But as the pages turn
He's growing
Head in the clouds
But my feet still planted
Firmly on the ground
I don't blame you
For reaching into my chest
Coursing through these aching veins
Constant stress that's weighing
On my brain
The images haunt me
Mirrored fragments of distant memories
Cutting the cord
The team's heating up
They drop their Pre-game's to the floor
I'm shaking and numb
As Melo 7 sinks his threes
I see a car pulling up
One more drink and then I'm ready to go
I've never been the type to go through anything slow
Just wanna be the candid face that nobody knows
But I'm heart-sick choked-up and I will never let that show
Head in the clouds
But my feet still planted
Firmly on the ground
I don't blame you
For reaching into my chest
Coursing through these aching veins
Constant stress that's weighing
On my brain
The images haunt me
Mirrored fragments of distant memories
