Love Yourself - Page 4

Where were you when the tears fell?
When the blood began to flow?
Where were you when I was scared?
When all my skies were gray
And I lost all hope?
Where were you through all the years?
When it all began?
Where were you when I was hurt and bleeding, when I needed you?
Where were you when I was sad and in jail?
When there was no strength left,
And where the hell are you now?

When it all came down and the walls were crashing in,
All was lost and gone, and when I fought?

Where were you when I stayed up and cried myself to sleep each night
And I tossed and turned?
And where are you now?
That I'm stuck and there's nowhere to turn?
So I ask you this, where will you be
When the walls come down again?
Where will you turn when the tables turn
And there is no where to hide or no one to blame?

Memories in my life fade away
As I replace them with others.
They are forgotten and stored away.
Although the memories are pushed to the side,
They are safe so I may remember them in the future.
Our mind is like a book;
It writes down important things and keeps them between the pages forever.
Maybe our whole album of memories:
Our first steps, first love, first grief, and others
Were meant to be there for us to never forget.

Decorating the night sky...
Awaiting the moon

I tried so hard to be your perfect child,
but in your eyes I turned out wild.
Yeah, sometimes I did lie,
but Mom, I really did try,
and I'm still trying to change to this day.
Trying to change my horrible ways,
trying to be a better sister and daughter,
but problems just flow like water.
My eyes are burning from the tears.
Just look what happened to our relationship over the years,
but now I will try if you do too,
'cause Mommy, I'm trying to change for you.

lying on the grass
night has fallen
looking up at the big dark and starry sky
I get lost up there
time disappears
everything melts away and for a moment
I don't have to worry
