I told myself many times That this time would be the last time that I see you cry But I kept trying and I caught myself lying a few times I mean my pride took me for a ride with no one else beside me But me acting silly and so blind that I couldn't see Yes behind me, no floors, I'm free falling I got the trust the process But there is 6 million ways to grow, gots to choose one Like today I wanted to run a 5K but my app decided to fell me It's what my screen displayed, and now I'm just kind of lay lay Staring that the hour encrusted in my black mirror As my blues grew darker you were right there by the corner You asked me to come back home and we connect with yourself And share a meal with your loved ones But was too busy cocooning and forgot what was a butterfly Bouncing freely like echo in the chamber from loud music clock ticking I couldn't hear what was disappearing through a deaf ear As time flies Which was the day before the world changed That things will never be the same Didn't mean to make you wait So long So long So long Didn't mean to make you stay So long I saw you on the bench all alone seeking peace With your head facing West staring at the sunset I recall the texts that you were asking what's next Now that we can leave home without a fight And enjoy a little light in the night though I could read, I couldn't read what was between the lines As I got closer and closer you got smaller and smaller I caught myself running in a circle And clinging into a mold that didn't fit And I kept loading and loading until I was made aware that My world was getting heavy as I extended my hand You said it's too early to shake hands Maybe tomorrow I might feel better or read your letter or feel greater And earn a second chance to smile and be in tune with mine Be open to give and receive, a new life with new colors New forms and shapes no more looking for a place to escape Some might say it's kind of late for this to come out But I say it's never too early to wake up Didn't mean to make you wait So long So long So long Didn't mean to make you stay So long I found a way for you stay You were gone since yesterday You were gone since yesterday You were gone since yesterday You were gone since yesterday I found a way for you to stay, You found a way to walk away To walk away!
