Another song by me

These lyrics are currently without music. Don't worry, I'm thinking acoustic. Verse Let's be honest I should have kept you near me Every one in awhile I swear I get it right I'll let you know now The last thing you need to see is The angels screaming in my heart tonight Don't waste another moment of your life Don't waste your thoughts on me So I'll lie here Pretend I've given up on you I know it's hard 'cause your not willing to let go Why did you go? The best thing I never did Was write from the heart But, I promise, I promise I swear I'll get it right Chorus Time is moving sideways and I'm all caught up In the middle of breaking bad thoughts You'll do the talking, I'm not one for listening Sporting a veil for a smile and my regrets are showing The space between the haves and the have-nots Cross my fingers at the chance of you returning Don't let the light in your eyes fade from overexposure Time may bring happiness in unlikely places I'll try to hide my guilt from the pain Having you gone has changed me in ways I think I've changed for the better This is how hitting rock bottom must feel like A phase I don't ever want to go through again I need you to stay with me Post Chorus I need you more than I need you I breathe in and not out I need you more than I need you I breathe and not out I need you more than I need you I breath, I breathe in Verse A long distance idea One of many I've been through Every once and awhile I fail to get it right The current events of our lives Are enough to keep me going Pulling through the sadness I'm gonna harness my hopes until further notice I'm gonna harness my hopes Those little things The ones that carry the burden Troubled days are ahead of the times I am stuck in my head I know that you said I've no reason to fear And that our paths are to connect again Knowing that I miss you and nothing more I miss you and nothing more (Chorus) (Post Chorus) Verse It's gone to glory There is no perfect time Let's see who blinks first then I'll look For a place of honor in your soul Your love pertains to me as does mine Shines for the best of only you Don't let the light in your eyes fade from overexposure Don't let the light fade You, you overwhelm me I fought hard for this one In the past I would have drowned But, I've learned how to love you from a distance Counting the days you're back in my arms You'll see why kept promises make a difference I told you I would get it right I swore that I would get it right (Post Chorus) And that's it.

A very sad song. the part I like the most is: "the last thing you need to see is the angels screaming in my heart tonight" This is very good!
