Reflection/Recollection
written by Mars_Phoenix

Reflection leads to recollection of the day
I walked through your door and you asked me to stay,
While your friends they looked on in dismay,
It didn't matter cause you wanted me to stay,
I wanted to wake you up and tell you,
That this time the glass is like a mirror
I can't see through to warn you,
Oh man i've got a bad feeling,
That this time i'm gonna put my foot in it,
So i'll shut up sit down and back up,
Your friends they keep looking at me,
Like I want them too you know?
Then I spill my drink over her theres the final blow,
Walk through the door monday morning my friends mourning
The death of a reputation that started off sub zero,
Cause im going with this girl im suddenly some sorta hero?
Fuck that I never wanted to be apart of this act,
What the fuck you think im Deniro?
And even though I wanna stop it
I know I gotta do my bit
Being what she wants me to be doin as I please,
Nope;
Aint true,
I feel like im chasin the ghost formerly known as me,
Cuz see I gotta split up with her to recognise what I wanna be,
F-R-E-E is easy to be when your living in a palace
3 cars in the drive, sippin wine from a golden chalice,
And though im callous towards her emotional needs,
I treat her good its not as if shes the one who bleeds
From wounds that never seal,
So how do u expect me to feel?
When I got no-one who ever cares,
Or gives a damn they just want to share
All that I have when my folks pass away,
Well they might be gone but im here to stay,
So say what you say while i put you on hold - delay,
i cant hear you my cells gone dead? huh? whats that u said?
Reflection leads to recollection of the day
I walked through your door and you asked me to stay,
Two years ago and i'm still forced to pay,
Every second of every minute that you took away,
But i got a bad feeling its gonna happen all over,
If i could take back that day and all the memories,
And wake up in a hospital bed in the infirmary,
To forget and start over fifteen going on seveteen...
