Another One Bites The Dust
If I only had the courage to say everything I’ve left unspoken
then maybe this path wouldn’t have been just another dead end
If affection could roll from my tongue like my anger
maybe then I’d know exactly where I stand
but I couldn’t face it-
the feeling you get when the truth comes out
and it’s exactly what you wanted all along
I guess I just thought
that living a self-fulfilled prophecy would erase all the memories-
skin to skin, heart to heart, soul to soul.
But you just can’t make certain parts of your life disappear
and even though the longing fades and the temptation withers,
you never really get over wanting that someone to understand you
and know you haven’t changed a thing
I know saying sorry
wouldn’t mean anything by now,
especially when we’ve both got too much pride
one of us just had to let it die
for the both of us to completely let go
and see if missing someone holds any weight
all the words I spouted weren’t said out of hatred, just desperation.
and if I only had the courage to say everything I’ve left unspoken
then maybe you would know that even though I see your flaws,
it doesn’t mean I don’t love you
