Regret I wake the day up and walk it 'round in a haze another's tear stains shimmer in the early sun's rays all the night the fight took on it's own way of living it's own way of taking away, replaced with pain giving don't know if I can spend the rest of my time paying but I'll try it anyway anything I can do to transcribe what her heart is saying and color in the grey Regret tinged these emotions I won't forget I will stumble through oceans just to get back to where I left off a girl and a debt needing to be paid off half finished paintings of feelings I long since archived in all these over-the-shoulder years, I don't know how they ever survived and this regret a bet I should have bet I sleep off the night to dream it into the lost and found the past's footprints hammer me into the ground all the memory of the very recent night, a forgiving it's sought high and low, past life and now-living wish I knew how long I need to keep grieving for her heart's breaking but anything I can do to show her my heart's leaving with her leave-taking Regret bittersweet this feeling I won't forget all these years I've been reeling from things said, never meant to harm but this war inside me I've yet to disarm half finished sentences I need to return to sender reign in all these under-the-bridge tears, I'll try to begin to mend her and these regrets I won't forget I will stumble through emotions split apart the ocean just to get to her just to begin to mend her fade my regrets as the sun sets and finally pay off all my debts yeah finally try to live with all my regrets "I will hang on the hook of your splendor" -Snow Patrol, 'Dark Roman Wine' |

"half finished paintings of feelings I long since archived in all these over-the-shoulder years, I don't know how they ever survived" wow so many good lines and this : "I sleep off the night to dream it into the lost and found" enjoyed your words today M |
