Depth Perception - Engine Down

I woke up in a panic

Deciding factor to better myself

If it takes more effort

I left it behind to disregard

I should have looked before moving on

at what you thought you felt all along

you’d take back everything you said

the end you see

again you speak

a desperate act

to retract

from your mouth came the promise

that you don’t seem to notice

your lips formed words

that cant be retracted

so why cant you hear?

the words you said dear

were made so clear

why cant you hear them now?

why cant you hear?

In the long run you came out

for a second chance

routine waste of time

when stopped and asked

did you remember his name?

In the brief moment away?

did you take on the you made?

we will never now how its meant to be
