lyrics

Do you have some time? Do you have the answers?
I need to get this off of my chest.
Before my world's in question, I beg for you to listen
cause my love is my only confession.
I stand here right before you spilling my guts and regressions
I'm sorry for what I've become.
I had a perfect vision, of who I was.
I forgot that all that mattered was what you saw in us.

Valarie, wont you please come
Valarie come home.

Summer heat and shades of blue,
sunshine beat shining straight through.
Fields of green, the untold truth
of what is here coming to you.
Loose the gold and drop the glue.
Every vowel worth I.E.U.
Crazy does as crazy do
Every day's like deja vu.
Eyes so deep that they hide your lies
and only I can see what defines your life.
You should hold your head with greater pride
because this world needs you right along it's side.
Wearing tearing of your younger years,
and it's brought you to a greater fear
so you run and hide and you disappear,
playing hide and seek with who you thought you were.
