Never A Lover

It was a set-up from the start, smoke and mirrors of the heart
In my mind we were sublime; I went back and counted all the time
Know my role by now; second place will have to wow
No not the honour of a lover, I’m always a friend and never a fucker…

I still wish to digress; the soul is not filled with regret
Just a single sense of knowing, wish my heart knew where it’s going
Lies warm the body late at night, yet the mind still wants to fight
Romance is now a thing I suffer, I’m always a friend and never a fucker…

Keep me from myself; I turn on my personal hell
It is the shadow on your face, tells me to keep within this space
Leaving to follow an empty chance, eyes that meet in stoic dance
I’ll get treated like a brother; I’m always a friend and never a fucker…

And one day, you’ll look into my face
Then you won’t ever pray, the smile of graceful disgrace
Now I’am on the outside; what I feel on the inside
We will both be innocent; I’m always a friend and never a lover…

Give Up, Give In, Give Out, Grave Mistakes.
