Timed

Ten minutes more before the front door closes for the last time

Ten more minutes before I can make up my mind

But you see ten minutes is not enough

I needed a lifetime but I guess now I have to give up

You told me once you could love forever

You did not say it was me so I guess you’ll be looking for someone better

But it took me time to realize that what you say is what you do

That’s why sometimes I can’t stand falling in and out of love with you

I thought you were different but now I know you’re all the same

The only differences you all hold are the clothes, the lies and the names

Forced laughs, faked smiles, you do it all because they’re all the same to them

I’m no better now but now I can tell that reality is finally better than all the dreams I’ve dreamt

But one thing I’ve learned from you is to never give my heart to a stranger

Because all he does is put your very heart in danger

So now that we’re over I have to tell the truth and not pretend

I have to let you know that I gave my heart away because I was confident

Confident enough to break it and in the end make it shatter

So now I ask myself “How long will I search ‘tail I find what I’m after?”

Because I haven’t found it, not even a segment of what I’m looking for

But right now, I don’t care because its true when I said I didn’t love you anymore

So grab your bags and everything you own

And get away from here because my heart’s no longer your home…
