Maybe One Day I'll Say
(Verse 1)

A bag of gifts to give away
A great big sack for Santas sleigh
Filled with things I've felt today,
But with no flying deer on reins
No sled or a ruby nose for kicks
All on my back, the pain so sick
Just a sack of boxes of bricks,

Bricks, my thoughts, flow in fantasy
Where I can see herself with me
No desire honed for a physical meet
Just gentle touch, caress, a reach
To touch two hearts so close to feed
On lonely thoughts still self-complete
Such walls built tough, her eyes do breach
So my fantasy flows, as far as can see

Bricks, my thoughts, flow in fantasy
Invading my morals in all their greed
My counciousness then they try to lead
But bit in the bud by all of my need;
For her in my life
No matter the strife
Locked away in my mind
As she turns and she sighs
Unknowing my dreams
That toss me to sleep
The murderous screams
My thoughts won't concede
So they fight and they bleed
Over her of her breed
Though she'd never accede...

(Chorus)

Sometimes I only hate myself
But only when she comes around
Then when she leaves my heart collapses
Nothing else can heal this frown,

She bent me in all the right ways
But now it hurts me to say
I'm no longer okay
Just get by one more day,

Keep those thoughts out at bay
Don't let them be taint
Leaving me all up and ashamed
But no one else is to blame
So I accept my own bane
Just to keep myself sane
I hope that she'll wait
Is all I can say,

No one feels the same
Why would you want me that way
Walk away like a saint
Leaving me hungry in vain
Able to push away Cain
At least for one more day
And maybe one day
I'll say

(Verse 2)

If I made a list
Of what without I would miss
A soul of such brilliance
Perfection so sound
Some have a few down
But she opens the door
As if slaying them with the sword
Checked every line I had written
Every red flag gets smitten
Eyes wide in surprise

One by one my doubts stand up
One by one they meet their demise

My heart beats and repeats
As she walks through the market
Pangs of regret
Leave me upset
Every time she gets met
By someone better and set

Too much, too far, patience abide
True treasure unearthed
Words fit for Wordsworth...


(Chorus)

Sometimes I only hate myself
But only when she comes around
Then when she leaves my heart collapses
Nothing else can heal this frown,

She bent me all the right ways
But now it hurts me to say
I'm no longer okay
Just get by one more day,

Keep those thoughts out at bay
Don't let them be taint
Leaving me all up and ashamed
But no one else is to blame
So I accept my own bane
Just to keep myself sane
I hope that she'll wait
Is all I can say,

No one feels the same
Why would you want me that way
Walk away like a saint
Leaving me hungry in vain
Able to push away Cain
At least for one more day
And maybe one day
I'll say

(Verse3)

Keeping the peace
Between you and me
Looking out over the sea
Now I can hear of the bees
Buzzing around incomplete
The bird of prey strays away
With nothing yet left to say,

You know who you are
You who is her
The she, the seed,
That grew to exceed
Invading my turf
For as long ago as my birth
All my days have I searched
Telling the standards to curb
A soul sweeter then myrrh
Rejuvenating medicinal herb

You were alone traversing the wildest sea
I was stranded alone, no land within reach
All I wanted was for a ride to shore
You stopped and you offered so much more
Something only few others have started to touch
The flower left, though nurtured to such
Grows up to new heights, to heaven it soars
It's peddles expand, over cities and wolds

From all we've known one thing I hold true,

You don't always choose your friends
But for your slot I'll never choose again

So now I smile at you
Everything is good around you


(Chorus)

Sometimes I only hate myself
But only when you come around
Then when you leave my heart collapses
Nothing else can heal this frown,

You've bent me all the right ways
But now it hurts me to say
I'm no longer okay
Just get by one more day,

Keep those thoughts out at bay
Don't let them be taint
Leaving me all up and ashamed
But no one else is to blame
So I accept my own bane
Just to keep myself sane
I hope that you'll wait
Is all I can say...

No one feels the same
Why would you want me that way
Walk away like a saint
Leaving me hungry in vain
Able to push away Cain
At least for one more day
And maybe one day
I'll say
