Waste of Time

I think about you
What a waste of my time
Thoughts of you
Cross my mind
What a waste of my time
Think of all the reasons
I loved you
What a waste of my time
Think of all the reasons
I hate you
What a waste of my time
Think of all the time
We spent together
What a waste of my time
Think of all the time
We spent apart
What a waste of my time
All the thoughts
about you
What a waste of my time
What a waste of my time
Oh you were the
Wast of my life

It took me awhile
to let my defenses down
It took some time
for me to drop my guard
But finally
it happend
and I began to trust
I thought, This is easy
I didn't know why
I waited so long
There were days when I slipped
fell back to the past
Questioned the trust
Did not believe it was strong enough
to last
But you were always there
to assure me of its strength
This bond is forever,
never shall it break, you said
I still didn't believe,
but the distrust became a little smaller
each day
Then came the day
you said would never arrive
The day that you left
You left me behind
The bond was broken
Shattered to the core
None of your words can be trusted;
They all turned to lies
The walls I took down
because of you
have now been rebuilt.
Taller,
Wider,
Thicker,
Stronger
I don't know
if these walls will ever
be broken
All that remains
is a cold
replica
of who I once was

I Thought

I thought you'd understand
Hadn't you been here too?
I thought you'd be the one
I could go to
The one
Who would know
What to do
I thought you'd understand
All I needed was love
A little time and attention
A thought that you cared
I thought you'd understand
That you'd help me
Find my way
That you'd lend me
A hand
But from you I got nothing
No word
No call
No helping hand
I though I had sunk as low
As could be
But when you weren't there
I found out
How low
Low could be

Your world is falling to pieces
the walls tumbling all around
Your world is falling to pieces
the rubble lays at your feet
You call to me
Help me, you say
So I pick up some rubble
try to help you rebuild

My world is falling to pieces
the walls tumbling all around
My world is falling to pieces
the walls tumbling all around
My world is falling to pieces
the rubble lays at my feet
I call to you
Help me, I say

But you don't come.
You can't hear me, I think
Please won't you help me, I cry
as the rubble builds to my knees
Begging and pleading I shout to the sky
But soon I am drowning in the rubble
That once was my life
Sinking so low
No strength left to cry

Where Were You

Where were you
When my world came
Crashing down on me?
Where were you
When I was no longer
Able to keep it together?
Where were you
When I was buried
Beneath the rubble?
Through my tears
I think I saw you
Standing on the sidelines
With a sledgehammer in
Your hands.
