I’ve been thinkin’ a lot lately…about the way things could’ve been between us…
I want to learn to let it go…move on with life and roll with the punches…
I was wanting to tell you…how much you hurt me…but I didn’t have the nerve til now…
There was never anything between us…and I don’t think there could ever be…

What is done is done…lets try to move on with life…
I wanted someone to love me…but I found my heart broken…
I placed my hand in yours…for the first and the last time…
I really wish it didn’t have to end…tryin’ to figure out how it began…

I’ve been thinking what could’ve been…The times do you remember when…
We used to have fun together…as a couple, but Christ wasn’t the center…
So what was I thinkin’…that it will work out, based on what I wanted…
I am not sorry that it happened…but sorry it had to hurt…

There are so many emotions…woven deep into my soul…
Because I don’t want anything between us…but it seems like you still want things to happen…
Crying because I say I can’t hang out tonight…I wanted to, but I knew it was better if I didn’t…
I’ve been busy…and its not because I don’t like you, but its because I have been moving on…

A song inspired by my relationship with a girl, that didn’t work out and learning to move on.

As I look to the heavens…watching the fireworks produce explosions…
I try to imagine…what the world was like before you spoke it to be…
With every touch of color…another aspect of your glory revealed…
It’s hard for me to understand…how you can be such an artist…
then turn something small…into a beautiful masterpiece…
I wanted to reach out to the skies…and give you the lies…
People choose to believe…about the formation of the world…
Some say that it was the big bang…and even though I don’t agree…
How can I show them…the beauty in your words…
The cross a perfect representation…of what it means to love…
I try to figure out how do things apply to me…How do people not see…
With each burst of light…I thought to myself…
Could tonight be the night…that I meet my creator…
So many times…we forget to look up…
Many instances we look up to the heavens…and forget about the people around us…
Trying to live the life you have for us…but forgetting to acknowledge the reason…
Behind the explosions in our lives…times when you want to work in our lives…
Take a loud noise…and turn it into something beautiful…
