Things I Can't Admit
Written by: Wilfred Mellers,28 May 2015


Listen if you will for I have plenty of time to kill
Desires set a flame for I am the fool to blame
Excitement once was just because
Lacking rhyme or reason it was a lamentable season

It was all a dream I once had that makes me sad
So it has been said that it was all in my head
As often as they do, seldom they come true
It was just mirage and another sabotage

Arrested vision incomplete once sweet
Bitter has been tasted of time I wasted
Rarely seen the lies in-between
Deceitful attraction was the true reaction

Skies are blue so happiness where are you?
Bye and bye for in the end there won't' be a single dry eye
It's a nightmare for I run in place and getting nowhere
What a disaster for my new ever after

True I bought the farm yet still I wish you in my arms
Delicately beholding as fates are unfolding
Days turn to years that sum up my fears
I may never see you again my beloved friend

Things my mind won't admit for my benefit
Can't seem to commit feelings so adequate
My soul still in transit for I refused to quit
Lost nevertheless I won't admit so onward I still hoof it
