On My Mind

On my mind
By Kyle Oakeson

I look at your face and I nearly cry
I see you all the time as it passes by
These feelings happen t’me when alone
Reminds me of love that wasn’t my own.

In the future my life changed and I’ll grow up a lot
But there will be one thing inside me, a beating spot
It will pump the blood through my body inside
And each time it beats I’ll shrink and hide

My past had little regret but plenty of sorrow
You racked me and pulled out your harrow
And the scars on my back are still there
They forced me to hunch over everywhere

Now I’m just thinking of what I’ll become
And wonder if it is all cause of something I’ve done
When a girl says she wants your heart
And you give her a part

And she reaches inside you to rip the rest out,
Cause she was insulted; about to pout.
And you merely say that you gave her it all,
And thought she’d give back part of the whole.

But that’s not her intention.
She wouldn’t have mentioned.
She fell in sights with you,
And gave you abuse too.

And you took it for love.
