With a Little Ache and Some Numb

When things come around, and you aren't good enough, and don't hold on. A Quatern.

With a little ache and some numb

I look at possibility

Never completely shutting out

Myself to all that can be true

 

Then doubts taint my thoughts and bleed me

With a little ache and some numb

So then I confess and suggest

Regretting the decision much

 

Maybe too rash, and too forward

I leapt head first and hurt once more

With a little ache and some numb

Disregarding what might be true

 

Upon returning with what was

Honestly felt, try a slow mend

Sheer folly, I am here again

With a little ache and some numb
