Good Boys

How could a good boy have gone so wrong
She said, and then the words just slipped
From my mouth, you’re a liar, a thief
Her hands were never beside her
She was always taking from me
What wasn’t hers, what she could hide
But I want those years of my life
The feeling of first love again
The feeling you only get once
The once I waited on, before I let you in
So talk to me, about what, about you,
What’s there to talk about
I want to hear you say you never knew me at all
But that’s not true (I wanted this so badly)
The image changed (No you just moved away)
And the further you went the less you wanted to stay
I wish I could have said
Something cool to make you listen
But the only thing that came to mind
Is how much I’d be missing you
And missing this
When everything, is brought to light
Then we see that everything’s just not all right
So let’s be honest, is that a stretch
I’m what’s common and you are the blessed
But I’m not the same as before I let you in
So talk to me, about what, about you,
What’s there to talk about
I want to hear you say you never knew me at all
But that’s not true (I wanted this so badly)
The image changed (No you just moved away)
And the further you went the less you wanted to stay
I wish I could have said
Something cool to make you listen
But the only thing that came to mind
Is how much I’d be missing you
And missing this
You made me swear, I’d always forgive you
But the simplest promises are ones that we cling to
And if I could just take one more chance
And let you see through, would you see it as love
Would you see it for us
So talk to me, about what, about you,
What’s there to talk about
I want to hear you say you never knew me at all
But that’s not true (I wanted this so badly)
The image changed (No you just moved away)
And the further you went the less you wanted to stay
I wish I could have said
Something cool to make you listen
But the only thing that came to mind
Is how much I’d be missing you
And missing this
