Behind Enemy Lines
As it passes by I try to discourage what could be,
Try to push back the thoughts so I don’t have just a memory,
The gates are open just waiting for me to pass through,
Even though I see it I don’t want to do what I am supposed to ,
Closer each day though it might be my last,
Tryin not to make decisions too fast,
Behind enemy lines with only one way out,
As I see it I try to see through all of the clout,
It’s been a long time coming and I can’t say I didn’t know,
With no place to hide and no place to go,
Trying to place thoughts of happiness inside of my head,
Trying to forget the things that have been said,
Left behind much worse but don’t really care,
Behind enemy lines not knowing what is really out there,
Will this be the day that the chaos takes me away,
Left without words and nothing to say,
Its hard to be in love but always feeling alone,
I hear it as you call me in that coldhearted tone,
As you touch me I feel fury and fire,
But only to love you is my desire,
Behind enemy lines is how I live,
Just knowing one day something has to give,
I can’t continue to be a prisoner of war,
Just so that you can add me to your endless score,
Can’t say I didn’t expect it when I signed up,
Just didn’t know you were really so corrupt,
Further and further I am losing my mission,
I know soon I will have to make a decision,
Behind enemy lines a place where no one desires to be,
Just knowing deep down I know the key,
Can’t really say though that I was beat,
When I knew you were full of lies and deceit.
