right around this time
my stomach used to
flip flip flip
now all it does is
dip dip dip
around this time
my eyes used to get wide
now all they do is tear up
while i fight not to cry
beacause, long ago,
around this time
i would see your face
while your eyes shined
i used to run to your arms
and squeeze real tight
beacuse, around this time,
you were mine.
for a minute or two of the day
i felt loved and happy.
but now
this hour
this minute
this second
im dyinng
im crying
i hate this feeling
i miss this time
when everything was alright
...right around this time.
