I'm So Lost Without Me (And By Me I Mean You)

written by: OurSacredHonor

Please allow me to take this chance
To apologize to you all in advance
If I've said this once, I've said this twice
I'll do my best to be concise
I know I've said this all before
But I'll keep saying it until I'm not ignored

This may seem pathetic I realize
And if I fail again I won't be surprised
Childish, desperate words aimed to antagonize
I'd say just about anything to simply catch your eyes
A glance and the chance to once again say hello
To talk to you again and say I miss you so

It's cliche, I hate it
You anticipate it
Reject me, dissect me
And pick me apart
You were so precious
How could you forget us?
When second best was perfect
Now you're breaking my heart

I don't ask to be special
Just to be remembered
To talk just like we used to
45 minutes from September to December

Your vacancy has not been filled
Your job left unemployed
The games we'd play, the things you'd say
Now you seem to avoid

But just so you know I'm doing better
At understanding your kind
And I also hope you're doing better too
At trying to conquer mine

In case I'm unclear
Then I need you to hear
The reason, I want you to see:
For three years I've pondered
And still I conclude
I'm so lost without "me"
