Take my hand and hold me tight
kiss my lips all throughout the night
access my soul through my eyes
see past the hurt,pain and the lies
Sometimes...we get pushed away by the people we love
Take 3 steps towards me then 5 steps back
make me sit and watch as your heart, it cracks
don't let me help you, or dry your tears
don't let me vanguish all of your fears
Sometimes...we screw up
how do i live now that you've gone
i was so sure that you were gonna be the one
i should of kept my mouth shut
controlled myself, added the word 'but'
Sometimes...failing is a good thing
i thought it was the answer, leave all the pain
but now that i survived i know I'll never be the same
i knew there was a reason that i had to live
and i found it, someone to love, to share my life with
Sometimes...we keep secrets
i was hurt and angry at the time
the b*tch in me was at her prime
it was me who spread the rumours and made you cry
now i have you back, i'm sorry, i don't know why
Sometimes...we lose people for a reason
You were the only thing keeping me here
i was clingy, and needy and...sick my dear
i understand why you had to do it and i thank you
because thanks to you i had to change, i could start anew
Sometimes...we want someone to notice
The cuts on my arms, the tears in my eyes
noone ever saw them, i lived my life with lies
i was always the strong one, how could i tell
but deep down i wanted you to know that I wasn't well
Sometimes...
everything happens for a reason, good or bad
to be able to be happy, we have to learn by being sad
sometimes...thats life
Author notes
i know i havn't used all of the things you said
but i used all the ones that have actually happened to me
in my life..
so it's personal or whatever
i'll explain al the stanza's cos...i want to
the first one is about my bf, tbh i never really wanted to be with him, itwas a sexual attraction, but we fell in love and we are happy, and i thank god or whoever for giving him to me
the second one
my best freind is doing something stuid, we all know she well get hurt and she already has been but she won't let us help her so all we can do is be there for her when it happens agen
3rd one is about when my bf dumped me..long story
4th one, i tried to kill myself, and failed, and i am glad cos now i have everything i ever wanted
5th, wen my friend decided she hated me i spread stuff about her
6th, but the fact she left me changed me into a better person and now we are friends agen
7th, it's hard being the strong one, the one that ppl come to cos you survided everything, and sometimes you just want someone to tell YOU that it's all gonna be ok
but in the end all the bad leads us to the good
