People Change., by .xx:+.Disposable.Darling.+:xx. Subscribe to rss feed for .xx:+.Disposable.Darling.+:xx.

what's happening to you and me?
i'm not sure i like the person
you're trying so hard to be...
you used to be more than great,
but lately i find you're quickly becoming
one of those people i love to hate.

this always happens, just when things have gotten good;
where things stand, become where things stood.
i know people change, but this is big.
to find you these days, i have to dig.

everything that used to matter,
you've thrown against the walls in a manic frenzy;
i cry and watch it all shatter.
you've floated so far away now, and i can't reach you
even though i've climbed my tallest ladder.

i try to play along.
i try to learn the words to this new song.
but i want desperately for this to stop,
it all feels so wrong...

i won't give up without a fight
i'll try more than my best to make things right.
i don't know if you feel it too
but i'm hoping it's just a phase,
and we eventually pull through.

because i have craved dream worlds as well.
again and again chased them, and ditched my friends.
it never seems to work out though,
and it's rare we ever make amends.

i cringe to think this is the end of us.
you are the only person i have been able to trust.
we're both being taken over
by different kinds of lust.
and for some reason, all of these new additions to our
lives
have become more than a must.
more than us.

but are you really willing
to let it all fall apart?
we'd gotten so close, and we hated each other
in the start.
i'm not willing to lose another person
i hold this close to my heart.

if it's something i have done or did
tell me what i have to do to win,
because i can already feel the emptiness
setting in.

love michelle.
