Run Down Verses

The Return of the Sad Clown

[run-down-verses-version3]

My mother always said

I was crazy

My father always said

I was lazy

My brother and sister said

I wasn't very cool

All my teachers said

I should quit school

But I didn't listen to

The things they said

I made my own life

So I'll lay in it's bed

And wake up every morning

To walk my own path

Get in my way

You'll suffer my wrath

But walk by my side

And you will see

I'll be the best friend

That a friend can be

I am a little different

But loyal as hell

I guess that's all

Of what I'll tell

hi

hello

goodbye

Sadly, losing love

Is so much easier than

It is finding it

[run-down-verses-version3]

I tried to find my way back home

But still I'm out here all alone

Except for my memories and dreams

Some are happy, some are sad

Some are good, and some are bad

But they're all I can truly call my own

Don't feel sorry, don't look down

Don't ask why I smile or why I frown

Walk on by as if I am not there

You could have asked, not long ago

I would have answered to let you know

But now I simply do longer care

How it is you feel about me

What you see when you look at me

No longer matters to my heart and soul

All that matters to me now

As I take my final bow

Is I'm the one in control

Of my destiny

Because I'm free

Finally free

To be me

[run-down-verses-version3]

I once longed for death

Craved it

Reached for it

Held it in my hands

Injected it into my skin

Then waited for its Cold embrace

But somehow It escaped me

And I lived on

Which in the end

Was a good thing I was once to blind

To see

[run-down-verses-version3]

My heart was lonely

Long before it even knew

Yours left it behind

[run-down-verses-version3]

You will be

The end of me

The last I’ll love

The last I’ll see

The last I’ll hold

The last I’ll kiss

The last my heart

Will ever miss

Because the day

You say goodbye

Will be the day

My heart will die

And take with it

The rest of me

As a world without you

Will be one without me

[run-down-verses-version3]

Every word I write

Is even more meaningless

Then those before them

[run-down-verses-version3]

The world is burning

Fueled by the lies of those we

Elect to rule us

[run-down-verses-version3]

You can never have

More endings than beginnings

It just feels that way

[run-down-verses-version3]

I never said I love you

In a way that you could hear

Believing that my actions

Would make my feelings clear

Why was I so foolish

Why was I so blind

Speaking to your eyes

Not your heart or mind

Both which to hear things

Beyond what they can see

Which is why I’ll never know

A world where you love me

[run-down-verses-version3]

These words are not for you

These words are not for me

They’re only simple thoughts

My mind chose to set free

There is no deeper meaning

Hidden here to find

Don’t look for mystery

Between these written lines

Instead go look at thoughts

Others have left here

Not this silly drivel

I’ve chosen to share

Haunted memories

Come to life within my dream

Bringing ghosts once loved

[run-down-verses-version3]

You are the reason

I believed love could be a

Wonderful journey

And sadly you are

The reason I now believe

It never will be

[run-down-verses-version3]

Once upon

A night quite dark

On an I’ll fated walk

Through the park

My life was suddenly

Changed forever

My mind filled with memories

I’ll forget never

Years from my life

Suddenly taken

My heart and soul

Forever forsaken

With darkness replacing

A life filled with light

Calmness and bravery

Destroyed by fright

All because

I saw a mouse

I regret ever leaving

My cat at the house

When I chose to take

That I’ll fated walk

Which is why dear therapist

I need to talk

Any openings?

[run-down-verses-version3]

Why must my mind remember

What my heart wants to forget

Why must I live within this

Shadow of regret

Why must I go on living

In a world that’s meant for two

Filled now by only me

And memories of you

I do not know the answers

And most likely never will

So I sit in sadness

Unable to ever fill

The hole you left inside me

The day you said goodbye

I wish I knew God’s reasons

For choosing you to die

With so much left unsaid….

[run-down-verses-version3]

You know my secrets

You’ve shared my pain

And never used these

For personal gain

You’ve kept them close

You’ve helped me through

And I have done

The same for you

This is why

Eternity

Is reachable

For you and me
