if you're going to goA Poem by m.s.earlyThis is a song I wrote for a girl I used to know.If you’re going to go, then go But don’t leave behind any shadows or ghosts And take all the things you couldn’t hide from me anymore If you say you know, then you know But don’t hide behind those idle threats that you throw The truth is the light and the light will always show You can build walls of stars around your personal galaxy Watching them fall til they've all extinguished in the sea I was your last shot at showing anyone that there was anything to you So if you’re going to go then go because there’s nothing else you can do When you’re wrong, you’re wrong Left with emptiness and a one note song There are moments of relief but they don’t last very long When you’re in the flow, you flow Your lies had a rhythm that I’ll always know I wish I’d never loved you, I wish that you would just go You can build walls of stars around your personal galaxy Watching them fall til they've all extinguished in the sea I was your last shot at showing anyone that there was anything to you So if you’re going to go then go because there’s nothing else you can do © 2016 m.s.early |
