Byron Toast Proposal
to the day i met my very first lover,
to that song i wrote when it was all over,
to the time i wasn't able to tell lies no matter how
much it hurt…
that time is so far away...
to the lord i prayed as a kid in a corner,
to those scary dreams i had worrying my mother,
still remember grandma telling stories 'bout that man
who’d died alone,
the man i should never be...
to a place i left,
to all of my friends,
to the rose i gave to a girl one day,
to the moments i thought that i would go insane...
to a friend who thought eleven floors would kill him,
to the day he awoke surprised he was living -
then i realized that here you stay as long as you have
to,
no more, no less...
to the day i went to bury my father,
and i figured out i wouldn`t have another,
to the time he took my hand in his and told me "son,
you have to be
better than me"...
to that place i left,
to all of my friends,
to the rose i gave to a girl one day,
to those moments i cried believing a lie,
to the jackals i met and i never betrayed…
to that child i prayed to be back one day,
to those feelings i lost with my fingers crossed,
to the moments i thought that i would go insane...
