An Insomniacs Spoken Word

Read, review, tell me it sucks, I don't care... I needed it out of my head

If I got killed, would you even care?

I think not, cuz even now you're not there

Texted you to the point I annoyed you, can't get my time back

All the smiles, the laughs, didn't mean Jack

Not to you anyway

But for me?  I got some s**t to say

When we were together, I was the happiest man alive

I could do anything in the world, you gave me that drive

With you by my side, life was great and I was relieved

I had a partner, it wasn't just on me

But then, everything went down and I couldn't take it

I lost you that first October, I just didn't take the hint

I thought we'd get through it, make it til the end

But now I type a message and can't even hit send

Got a ring with our names engraved upon it

I still got it, but I guess it don't mean s**t

I wanted forever, I can see that I was wrong

And now you're all I think about when I hear that song

Yeah, you were the only place I called home

And now I can't even get you on the phone

I left for PA feeling everything was great

Got back, everything ended, and that was our fate.

After that week in March, it was all I could do to keep from breaking down

But I tried talking to you every day, feeling like a clown

Stupid, idiotic thoughts running through my head

Maybe I should move on, maybe Id be better off dead.

But I toughed it out and got through my senior year

The last good time I remember was when you whispered in my ear

"I'm so proud of you and I don't want you to go

But you're family's waiting for you, so... "

And with that, I hugged you tight as I could around me

That was the last time I remember being truly happy

I helped you out, helped you escape

Now look at you, you're doing great.

But I'm not, and I can't even talk to you

Without my heart exploding, cuz all I remember is what we went through

Asked you out two times, third you said yes

And on that day I knew I'd be blessed

But like how I am with everything, I knew one day it would end

I just wish tonight, I can hit send.
