Play with fire and you’re bound to get burned.

You didn’t just play with the matches, you soaked them in gasoline.

The fire didn’t start from the outside, it started within.

I never saw this one comin babe, I never saw this one coming.

100% of nothing is still worse than 50% of something.

All the methods of communication and there’s still radio silence.

You had the rules in place, you had the walls built

You check that door for heat Tim?!

If your pinky had gangrene, you don’t save the fingers, you cut off the hand. 

Missions over. We bluffed, they called it. “Who said anything about bluffing General?!”

Terrible read no matter how you spin it.

I would say I’m right where you want me.

I suspect you’re right where you should be.

Payback is best dish served cold. Cold it is.

Your words meant everything and Mine meant nothing.

You meant the world to me and me just another number.

Actions always speak louder than words. Or in this case, inaction.

I guess i missed that memo.

You come to me. If the world was falling apart, i don’t care, you come to me. That’s what loyalty is!

For a partnership, it was a pretty sole decision.

There are some that run from a problem, while others find a way to solve it.

You moving mountains or letting it burn.

Lies Lies Lies.

B. told me to leave her alone. 

This is definitely not the nicest way.

Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice. You did it again.

Words unspoken, feelings assumptioned. just like that.

Say you remember me, Almost.

My juice isn’t worth the squeeze.

We should feel ashamed of ourselves.

Apparently, I am not the reason to be stuck.

Bleeding. Broken. Bent. You told yourself you wouldn’t do this ever again.

You never forget how someone made you feel.

I was never good enough.

Son, this is why we control our emotion, and never show our all.

We jump thinking we can fly. And we can’t. And There’s only one person that can catch me from falling.

100% committed. 0% allocated.

Never given the benefit of doubt.

For once, silence is not golden.

Apparently, you thought wrong.

You assumed the worst in me and never gave me a chance.

Play with fire and you’ll live with the burn.

Some just want to see the world burn.

Let it burn.

it’s a cool night to start the hot summer.

weathers calling for a storm amid a drought.

the wind breathes hard but no tears in sight.

Maybe they got the forecast wrong 

Maybe the storm is brewing.

Maybe it was so wrong yet so right.

Or maybe it was right where they said it’d be.

Whatever is comin, won’t be easy

Some run away, others prepare for it.

Ain’t nobody said to embrace it.

Wondering if we dodged a bullet or we lost the love of our life 

Can’t change the stripes on the tiger.

Like nobody can change the inevitable.

Yet you can strip the stripes

Just like you can control the outcome.

There’s always a solution to the problem

Have you ever seen a single, tango?

Run to the road , it ends. 

Disappointed in the storm coming or disappointed in the forecast,

Underprepared and over delivered. 

Promise to the broken.

You can’t hear the thunder without the lightning.

Put you through hell, only to come up short.

Save your tears for another day.

i backtracked the roads we traveled on

i parked at the park we walked

i drove the roads you would call me 

a meeting i was always waiting for.

an empty void that never stops

a pain that is always lingering.

A scar that never heals only scabs

the kind you can’t ever get rid.

we took the path less taken.

fulfilling for warm feet.

i run into you now and then only to admire what is lost 

you never saw this one coming babe, you never saw this one coming

it only took a second for a glimpse

there i was in the distance.
