GO AHEAD


Go ahead and proofread me

Tell me i am not telling the truth

Because you happen to know me, go ahead


GO AHEAD


Tell me i'm the one whos in the wrong

when all you can say is that you're not going to let myself ruin you

Sounds like you've got some issues to

I can't ruin you when i'm the one whos wrong

Why listen to someone whos wrong?


GO AHEAD


Go right ahead and point your finger at me

I'll be the magic mirror in this part

Show you yourself but its still me so just close your eyes

You can't believe what you cant see

 

GO AHEAD


Go ahead play the poetic hero

Poets are not heros to others

Poets are heros for themselves

You just play yourself, not a hero


GO AHEAD


Leave me if i make you feel those ways

You stay

But am i the one who needs to go ahead and leave you?

Or am i just a poetic hero without a pen to explain
