Bridges Burnt,Lessons Learnt

Take an hour to myself and have some time to think,
Wash my tired face in the bathroom sink.
I've finally come to realise you're a waste of space, out of place,
Just a piece of work with a pretty face.

So turn around and walk away,
Better yet why don't you pick up the pace.
The distance made and the bridges burnt
Serve as a reminder of the lessons learnt.
A slippery slope is the hill you climb
The hole gets deeper with the ticking time.
Your crooked smile and the lies you keep,
Have made you a home and it's six feet deep.

Shut your mouth and take a seat cos
This time round it's my turn to speak and i
Laugh about the times you tried to break me down.
It's funny how our lives panned out.

So turn around and walk away,
Better yet why don't you pick up the pace.
The distance made and the bridges burnt
Serve as a reminder of the lessons learnt.
A slippery slope is the hill you climb
The hole gets deeper with the ticking time.
Your crooked smile and the lies you keep,
Have made you a home and it's six feet deep.

Walk home and pull your head out of the sky and
Realise that looks alone won't get you by.
