Scenery is nothing more than poetry.<br /> Love is nothing more than chemicals.<br /> &#039;Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.<br /> One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


It's been awhile since I've heard from you,
Decided to shoot a text and converse.
That was until you found someone new,
And that makes what I have to say even worse.
I met you at a roller rink,
Just over two years ago.
You made my stomach sink,
And my blood refused to flow.
I then realized feelings I couldn't explain,
Thoughts left me deep in doubt.
Everything was jumbled up inside my brain,
Nothing would come out.
I missed my last chance,
To spill my heart on the floor.
'Cause from you he stole a glance,
And I don't know how to feel anymore.
I shouldn't have wasted time,
I should have made a move.
All that comes to mind,
Is that I lost my chance with you.
But life never goes the way you plan,
Especially when it comes to romance.
You now have such a wonderful man,
And I blew my last chance...
I remember that holiday,
You invited me over to meet your family.
They all adored me and asked me to stay,
Because they never met a boy like me.
Then came the summer in which I would waste,
Being another girl's prince.
In that allotted time we gained space,
And we haven't spoken since.
You're out there living your life grand,
I wouldn't expect anything less.
Your heart has an owner and it's not willing to expand,
Might as well accept there's no room for me, I guess.
I missed my last chance,
To spill my heart on the floor.
'Cause from you he stole a glance,
And I don't know how to feel anymore.
I shouldn't have wasted time,
I should have made a move.
All that comes to mind,
Is that I lost my chance with you.
But life never goes the way you plan,
Especially when it comes to romance.
You now have such a wonderful man,
And I blew my last chance...
I composed for you this song,
If you read it, it might make tears in your eyes form.
I'm just trying to let you know I've cared all along,
I'm not here to cause a storm.
You've both been in love since the third grade,
I wouldn't dare interfere.
Your life is basically made,
All that's left is for me to disappear.
No matter what happens; I have your back,
Even if I'm on the sideline.
My heart has a spec of black,
But it'll vanish with time.
He better give you love, he better treat you right,
I wouldn't want it any other way.
The last time that we speak will be tonight,
Come tomorrow, I will have forgotten you like yesterday.
I missed my last chance,
To spill my heart on the floor.
'Cause from you he stole a glance,
And I don't know how to feel anymore.
I shouldn't have wasted time,
I should have made a move.
All that comes to mind,
Is that I lost my chance with you.
But life never goes the way you plan,
Especially when it comes to romance.
You now have such a wonderful man,
And I blew my last chance...
