Old Songs

Let's raise our cups like we used to do
For old friends, romance, and for me and you.
Those days are gone, and I watched them fade away.
Now there is no one else to stand with, but I'm okay.

And I remember when we would sing the same songs;
The ones that everybody knew.
Held tunes about old lovers and the pain they left us,
But there was nothing else to do.

Sometimes I can hear them in a drunken slur
Screaming about what we should do.
All these dreams just start to fall apart,
But there was love; and we had fun.(So where were you?)


Let's raise our glasses like we used to do;
Talk about lost friends, and about me and you;
Those things we did so long ago,
All those hideouts that we knew.

I want you to know that I don't hate you anymore;
What is there left to say?
It's just too much emotion for me to show,
And I'm too tired to scream.

So what do you want from me these days?
I heard that everyone moved away;
Empty pages floating in the wind;
It's the same ending we all knew.



I am thankful for the years we had,
And all the people that we knew.
I still sing the same old songs;
Those same old lovers in the dark.

These three years of yesterdays,
Well they've shown me a thing or two.
So let's raise our glasses like we used to do
For lost friends, romance, and for me and you.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
