Twist of a Dial
Hello friend
Haven't heard you in a while
And I know this distance between us doesn't compensate for every moment to mile
A ratio that gets smaller than my smile
Because life becomes a real mess at the twist of a dial
Days feel like weeks
And those are weeks I don't think about you
Or reminisce about us
What a bust
To not be able to trust the fact that you don't think about me as much as I think about you
Anyway,
Is it true?
Things are going really good down south
How are the things I don't know about?
Yea, I sence the amount of doubt
You're trying your best to fight
Hard enough to get that knockout
And me?
What about me?
I mean
I'm trying my hardest
Like the rest
To swim with the sharks in these infested waters
But at best, I can't help but sink
Like the City of Atlantis
I sometimes vanish.
Nonetheless, I keep swimming
Win or lose I'm still winning
With every day I wake up I create a new beginning
Performing, permitting, committing my life to this
Thinking that this is my God given gift
So it must be my life's meaning
Complete and not misleading.
Goodbye friend
I know it's been a while
I've been talking your ears off
And I thank you for listening to all of my trials
And I'm glad we could reconcile
Because life becomes a real mess at the twist of a dial
