I feel like I'm falling, falling far down.
Distance from home and, they’re never around.
The sun won’t come out cause, its hiding from me.
Won’t play with guns cause, I’d fall to my feet.
Life’s like a game but, I’m always losing.
Last place, rejected.
I’ve fallen unexpected.
Why can’t my life be familiar like it’s made to be.
Chorus:
My love you’ve,
Shut me out, you’ve,
Played around, you
Hide what you feel your
The words: “i wish I did”.
Verse two:
I’m trying to get this, understand how,
You Ignore all your heart says, I’m pounding on the ground.
Your sun won’t come out cause, it’s hiding from me.
Still I won’t play with guns cause, I’d fall to my feet.
For me, life’s like a game cause, I’m always losing.
Last place, rejected.
I’ve fallen unexpected.
Sometime your life will be familiar, like it was made to be.
Chorus
Bridge:
You know you’ll always be that way,
Sometimes it’s hard for you to change.
I won’t give up on this note
You are the words that I wrote.
The words: “i wish I did” (fade out)

I wrote this song during a tough times in my life. I always felt like no one listening clearly to what i was feeling, or for that matter, saying. I've always loved writing and i write songs when I'm not at my best.
