Deadwood

Please excuse me if I don't find
The words to make it all sincere
I need to mull this over
So please have patience with me
I'm so sick of this impending silence
This time you'll be fine
But if you find I'm stepping on your toes
Then you've got to let me know
It's time to kick out all the deadwood
And come out of the woodwork
We've all got our faults
But it's not my place to say so
I'll never be ungrateful
But you've got to let me go
So, make a fresh start
And mend the punctures from your heart
I never wanted you to see this side unknown to even me
I've fallen down and I've hit the ground
And I need someone to help me to my feet
Chemicals and obstacles keep on getting in the way
Of what I'm about to say
Help me perpetuate my feelings
Because they'll never go away
They'll only ever change
Take me away from this obsession
My heart won't keep you in contention
It's too little too late
Because I'll never find the words
You'll never get it if you don't try
You'll watch the world as it slips away from your eyes
You'd be a fool if you keep inside
All of the thins that you think you ought to hide
So, make a change, better make a move
And walk the world in somebody else's shoes
Seize the day and don't be afraid
Of what the vicious minds may say
