Only Yesterday
Written By: Jacob Goodin
I looked out the front window,
I saw my life flashing by.
All the memories I shared...
All the good times.
I looked down at my hands,
Remembered all the problems they resolved.
All the feelings that consumed me...
Tangled in such a mess, would i ever get free?
I asked for help, I asked for an angel to be sent to me.
My feet where soar from the endless walks,
My heart never felt the same.
Feeling more assured love was a cure,
Life would be so much better without knowing,
Without being here, wondering...
But I continued on, to try and find myself...
What I was looking for I didn't find, I just couldn't tell...
I was changing, I was already different, I wasn't me.
What do you see in me?
That makes me stand out from the rest.
What do you need from me?
Is it really this instrument within my chest?
I don't give it away so easily,
For I've made that mistake once before.
Thinking I knew what I was doing,
Trying to satsify myself, asking for more.
I pray each day would be fullfilled with joy,
My nights bring sorrow and depression.
Wishing I could hold you till we fell asleep,
Knowing where you are,
Hoping you wanted to stay with me.
Within these memories you want to keep.
Instead you see me, being lost and confused...
I feel myself slipping away from you.
Not because I want to...
I just don't know what else to do.
You remind me time after time,
That we'll be together,
But thats not what my heart tells me inside.
I just have to believe that I'll get better.
But this pain grows every second without you.
As another tear is brought to my eye.
It was only yesterday, when you walked into my life,
Wondering if it was you who could save me.
Knowing what my heart had said to me.
During this time of need,
Satify my soul.
Love me,
Or
Let
Me
Go
