Little Boy Lost

I won't apologize for the way I was
Sorry's don't make up for the tears of blood
So I erase your name from my phone today
Can't face the words you'll want to say

You see you don't understand the way I act
Turned the lights off don't look back
Guilty conscience keeps your face inside of me
Hope the story changes inside my dreams

You're a little girl with those insecurities
Need someone constant for your every need
I'm not the man I'm supposed to be
Try to change but no one believes in me.

Walk the line, you forget what side you're on
Don't know where that little boy has gone
He's left and gone for a reason
I had good intentions but you'll never see them.

To Emily,

Because you make me smile - and your smile makes me happy.
