WHEN TO SAY WHEN

 

I’m laying here in my bed, thinking about all the things you said

My brain is just a maze, walking around in circles through my head

I can barely see your face, but I can see you so clearly in my mind

All the thoughts I used to have, I’m having trouble trying to find

 

Because you tried to change me

And turn me into someone I’m not

I couldn’t be who I needed to be

You took from me the only thing I got

It’s the one thing I cherished, my true loving heart

In which you ripped at the seams, and tore all apart

You promised me the world, and let me down again

The hardest thing in loving, is knowing when to say when

 

We should have saw the signs, but we were blinded by our love

We should of let each other go, when the pushing came to shove

Now as I’m looking back, I’m not sure if that’s what it was at all

My heart is so clouded, I can’t even remember what it was I saw

 

When you looked in my eyes

You used to shine so bright

Until you started telling lies

That stole my love in the night

Even though I loved you, I still had to tell you good bye

I just couldn’t take it anymore, not even one more try

It was over before it started, I should have never let it begin

That was my biggest downfall, knowing when to say when.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
