Good Boys
How could a good boy have gone so wrong?
She said and then the words just slipped
From my mouth "You're a liar, a thief."
Her hands were never beside her
She was always taking from me
What wasn't hers, what she could hide.
But, I want those years of my life.
The feeling of first love again.
The feeling you only get once.
The "once" I waited on
Before I let you in.
So, talk to me.
About what?
About you.
What's there to talk about?
I wanna hear you say you never knew me at all.
But, that's not true.
(I wanted this so badly)
The image changed.
(No, you just moved away)
And the further you went, the less you wanted to stay.
I wish I could've said something cool to make you listen,
But, the only thing that came to mind is how much
I'd be missing you,
And missing this.
When everything is brought to light
Then we see that everything's just not all right.
So, let's be honest, is that a stretch?
I'm what's common and you are the blessed.
But, I'm not the same as before I let you in.
So, talk to me.
About what?
About you.
What's there to talk about?
I wanna hear you say you never knew me at all.
But, that's not true.
(I wanted this so badly)
Things change.
(No, you just moved away)
And the further you went, the less you wanted to stay.
I wish I could've said something cool to make you listen,
But, the only thing that came to mind is how much
I'd be missing you,
And missing this.
You made me swear I'd always forgive you,
But the simplest promises are the ones that we cling to,
And if I could just take one more chance and let you see through,
Would you see it as love? Would you see it for us?
So, talk to me.
About what?
About you.
What's there to talk about?
I wanna hear you say you never knew me at all.
But, that's not true.
(I wanted this so badly)
Things change.
(No, you just moved away)
And the further you went, the less you wanted to stay.
I wish I could've said something cool to make you listen,
But, the only thing that came to mind is how much
I'd be missing you,
And missing this.
Missing you,
And missing this.
