After Love
The past is the past and the present is living in the moment, but what do I do for the unforeseen future?
What am I supposed to do
Sitting here thinking of my next move
Heartbroken
I just want to breakdown and cry
Like someone sucked the life out of me
Naw I'm too strong
I'm too much of a man
This is just a mistake
I was just going through the motions
For YOU
Trying not to be selfish
But I can't be this hopeless
I got to stay focused
On what my goals are
You know
Short term, long term
Stuff like that
I couldn't be with a woman like that
Sorry I'm not sorry
Just another horror story
Ending in tragedy
It's not that I'm sad, you see
I just had to get knocked down back into reality
Oh such a travesty
I always have to show some hospitality
When I should have been thinking of morality
Lost in the sauce
But who am I kidding
That's love
You can't change a raven into a dove
They say it's young love
True love
But what am I supposed to do after love?
