The Path Im Taking (Isn't Safe)

Verse 1

You know the path im taking isnt for the faint hearted
So you must understand why im leaving you behind
Im hurting you because im protecting you
It's like old fools searching for gold in all the wrong places
They search and search but they never will find a single damn thing
There greed to be rich blinds them
And they'll slowly drown in there obsessions
Its a pity because they were such good people
Its shameful to see them like this
Because they're gambling everything they have
To find something they'll never find

Chorus

We were so strong when we were young
But we lost what we had
And i feel a thousand eyes looking at me
And it makes me feel guilty for what ive done
Im Burnt , Im lost and i dont know where to go
Emotionally im like a sack of potatoes wanting to be cut and mashed
Im blind and im crashing into everything that i cant see
Yesterday i trampled over a hobo
And today i shopped lifted without even knowing
Please someone tell me what the f**k is going on

Verse 2

It hurts for me to do what im doing to you
But just understand my reason (just understand me please)
You ment everything to me but i changed
And i cant take back all the pain ive caused
So when i walked out the door i gave you everything i have
Just take it as a gift , a token of my dying love for you

I like this again, It seems I'm becoming quite a fan of your work mate :)
There seems to be a recurring sense of loss and it works for you!
The anger in the chorus really brings out what you're trying to say and overall I think it is a great piece of writing!
Lyrics are a form all of their own apart from poetry, you and I both know this, and I'm glad to see you can distinguish so well ^_^
