Wave

Row after row after row

After all gain tide

Washes away the sand

All purpose all knowing

All hail!

Bow before bow before bow

Before encore

And starz create hours of

Buttery corn popped after

Grown in

Row after row after row

2012

I'm a winner who lost.

afraid of what's the cost of

pride and shame

intermingled with love

who do I trust when my best

is not enough

unsettled rumors rise up and

with them lift memoris of moments

full of pain meant to be joyful

a lovers kiss,a baby's cry, a golden band

memories and moments stolen by

reality's slow drag

pulling me down

weighing my mind

keeping me from competing

I always win but this time

this time I lost and I cant stop myself

from mourning my perfect record

question whats real and

why i held on so long to the smoke

filled my lungs until fresh air seems foreign

was i ever even in the race

race game i'm running now

is it to or away from the mirror face

if this is my only escape

give me up to be chained to the burden of regrets
