Hold out your arms to the world and throw your heart out into the fire
And pull on your veins before it's to late and it all smolders and conditions turn dire.
We risk our sanity, our 'lives', and our 'souls' for an almost improbable dream.
Please don't judge my character but only my words because my insides have no voice to scream.

I want to hang everything out on the line and spill out all my guts unto you
for answers for closure for amends and for anger, There's too much that I can't undo.
I want to stop time and rewind the sky to a time when I was so careless.
forget the sweet nothings this is all about fuckups and regret and all that I repress.

My insides know as such; I am mush and I will never show anything, at all.
I'll lie with the best, forget all the rest, I just won't stand to you very tall.
I feel it fading with each passing breath the change that inevitably comes.
The time that has passed cages me at last so I live with it all as it goes.

The changes were too late but it all was to tame what was slipping from my fingers like sand.
and now I am different, too different for my taste but I'll learn to like it,   and
I don't want no trouble just know that I think of you now and again with kind pain.
your smile is burned in my brain, your kindness a permanent stain, and yourself that changed me again.
