The High Road

We spent all this time talking in rhyme and talking in circles

Going ‘round

And I thought you and I would be worth it

We’d be worth it

All the things you told me

Everything that’s wrong

Are all the thing you’re doing

That’s your plan all along

 

Break me down just so you could be the one

To build me back up again

Draw it out so I can only see the sun

If you’re there to help me stand

 

You don’t know who I am

Yeah you hurt me

You can’t see what I can

You have no mercy

 

I was your number one

For a while for a while

I didn’t know

I just falling in line falling so blind

With your pattern

Time and time over

You and I were fragile

But I always needed closer

So I would bear the battle

Give me so much just so I could be in your debt

When the time came

Holding out your hand just to take it back

After you’re in my head


You don’t know who I am

Yeah you hurt me

You can’t see what I can

You have no mercy

And it’s not fair

No its not fair

 

And when you think that I’m not looking

You stab me in the back

Just when I thought we were finally working

You go and change the facts


And it’s not fair

No its not fair


Even when I know I took the higher road

You make me feel like I did wrong

You did exactly what you told me you were

trying to save me from

 
No its’ not fair

You don’t know who I am

Yeah you hurt me

You can’t see what I can

You have no mercy

It sounds like your ex took ya for all you had.. I know all to well how that goes. Good expression! You may or may not get this cuz it’s been a coons age since ya been on here cuz they shut the sight down for along time and it ticked me off cuz I thought I lost all my poems. I stopped writing... anyways, I’ll have ya read some more and you should write some more. Maybe you’re married now. Also how do you keep your account private?? I been trying to forever and it keeps making me put in a state.. thanks for the good read.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
