Clock Forward

All of those memories
You can have those back
The pictures with the girl with the half smile and empty heart
Yea, you can have those back
Tear stains and promises that for you, seemed like they were packaged and delivered broken
You can have that back
Sweet nothings that led to countless hurtful somethings
You can have that back
Love letters with hateful innuendos, truths that went out the window
You can have that back
Return to sender, no return address...
With my heart you were just a borrower
And me, I'll never more be your lender
My heart...
You can't have that back.
Because the darkness of my future couldn't be more clear
No traces of you
Or how it hurt so good
Ascending from my misdemeanor loves
I'm hoping for a felony
With one on the same beat
and hums the same melody
one day Hephaestus will make a mold of him...
And I won't ever settle
No more second place loves..
I need the gold medal
The world never reverses..
The hour hand never backward...
So I take my cue from nature
We walk forward...
And as if nothing ever existed before me...
I won't have the urge to look over my shoulder...for you
