 Brianna by Toby Parks Sat up all night, hoping that you might, find the pain to call me back. Fell asleep crying, would of rather been dying, I found the pain not to call you back. Thought over our reasons, missing all these seasons, fighting the tears on my drive into work. Listened to those songs, couldn't bear to sing along, punched the wheel on my drive into work. Twirling thoughts, on how we never should have fought, still telling myself you're worth it. Can't get away, hurts worse everyday, wishing I never thought you were worth it. Soaked pillowcases, knowing I can't take it, as I turn over to clear my eyes. If you never thought we'd make it, and were only gonna fake it, I'm asking why you tried. I looked down at my loneliness in the moonlight. Looking for one good reason to make it right tonight. You took something of mine without sharing yours. I never thought twice about us not keeping score. But I don't want it back, not this soon. Take your three days, fuck, take all June. Find it in your heart to know that this is right. We can never let go of our past without one last fight. I'd take the future with you, just give me that chance. Wait, don't get too close, and here, take back these pants. I'm tired of waiting, and mostly tired of painting, this picture I've had of us. There was never any race, but you always set the pace, just so there was never quite enough. Now I sit here, with my heart on the floor. You threw it back, and I guess it's nothing more. Just one more thing before you go. If you look at it close, there's something you should know. That space you see, that was you and me, but you seem to have kept that too. Memories and wasted dreams, picture frames and holy names, now you know there's more to me than you
