A Letter to Time - Livingston

I wrote this just to ask you when you’ll let up on me

Cause i’ve been waiting years just for a chance to breathe

I close my eyes cause I don’t notice moments lost when I can’t see

Now I resent you for the creases in her smile I can’t forget

And as her voice slipped away you came and went

Oh I began to doubt if I was worth her love at all

Then You made me run from

Things that I once loved

Praying for miracles

And then you fired the gun

Hoping I’d fall down

For what it’s worth I still held on

Now you’re shaking my self worth

You took that child away

You saw me at my worst

Now you’re the only one here these days

But you’re the one who caused that, anyway

So Dear Time

I hope

You’ll find it inside your heart to let

Me cope

Forgive me for my anger, this is all

I’ve known

Just let me find my way back home

Cause waiting up on you is getting old

I found myself grasping for the pictures on the wall

Remembering those days where I felt ten feet tall

Indestructible youth ran its course until the day you came along

Nowadays I find peace

Inside

All the little victories throughout

These lines

The war it rages fiercely but I know

It’s fine

Cause you still haven’t taken all my pride

Then You made me run from

Things that I once loved

Praying for miracles

And then you fired the gun

Hoping I’d fall down

For what it’s worth I still held on

Now you’re shaking my self worth

You took that child away

You saw me at my worst

Now you’re the only one here these days

But you’re the one who caused that, anyway

So Dear Time

I hope

You’ll find it inside your heart to let

Me cope

Forgive me for my anger, this is all

I’ve known

Just let me find my way back home

Cause waiting up on you is getting old

So Dear Time

I hope

You’ll find it inside your heart to let

Me cope

Forgive me for my anger, this is all

I’ve known

Just let me find my way back home

Cause waiting up on you is getting old
