A Walk In The Woods



As I walk through these lonely woods
Wondering forth to see if anything else awaits me
I stumble upon a rock, This rock though is not just any ordinary rock
It is in the shape of a heart

This makes me think of back when I was young, also stupid
Dating many of these different girls and thinking about how al of the were "The One"
All of them of course left me, left me on a downward spiral to oblivion

That's why I am here, on this road
Wondering for an eternity, searching for something to give me light
Something that will give me some hope to carry on one more night
I don't think I have found that hope yet.
