    Compliments go unheard
    Music to tone deaf ears
    Kind men speak their good words
    The message turns unclear

    He looks into her eyes
    Great anticipation
    Promises he won’t lie
    Yet she doesn’t mention

    Her feelings aren’t the same
    She says with a cold glare
    Lightning strikes, here’s the rain
    The grounds fixed point to stare

    His emotions run cold
    Freezing like the weather
    His words were spoken bold
    She said she’ll find better

    But please, oh don’t forget
    I’m the best that you’ll have
    She’ll look back and regret
    The memories we had

    Yet he will remember
    He tried his very best
    His heart, she dismembered
    He’s treated like the rest

    She returns yet again
    Good intentions in mind
    He’s another option
    Won’t fall for it this time

    Too late, turns her away
    She cries “I love you now”
    That’s now what you say
    But please just tell me how

    When I was there for you
    You still ran off to him
    My love for you was true
    Garbage he dumped you in

    But please, oh don’t forget
    I’m the best that you’ll have
    She’ll look back and regret
    The memories we had.

    Collecting dust, sadly its unknown

    I am humbled by your choice of words. So yeah I like it. Sound like a horrible relationship though... 6.5/10

    @southernman The main point of the song was basically a guy that tries to tell a girl his true feelings, yet she wants nothing to do with him and he becomes bitter. A while afterwords the girl comes back proclaiming her "love" to him and the error of her old ways, and of course due to his bitterness he want's nothing to do with her and tells her off.
    So really it was about a relationship that never came to be.
    I'm glad that you enjoyed it.
