The Way It Used To Be

by Tony (T@co) Takach - Aquarius



      When I close my eyes, I remember a little boy. When I open up my eyes, I see pain. What am I feeling? How am I doing? Questions asked frequently, I feel so awful. I just wish, that it would go away, and I would be set free, just...

      Just like it used to be with me, innocent and care free, loving, that was me! Just like it used to be, with me! So happy...so loving...

      I raise myself up from my bed. I peer around and feel empty inside, why am I going through this? I deserve much more...I raise my head to the sky, but afterwards here comes another lie...

      Just like it used to be, with me. Innocent and care free! Loving, caring, sharing, happy...that was me, and I was completely, happy...just like it used to be...used to be...used to see...
    Now all the world is spinning so very fast and I've fallen down, and you pull me up. I promised myself to take better care of what I have, but it still haunts me and it still takes away, just leave me alone! Just go away...

     Just like the way...it used to be. I want to see,a five year old kid smiling again, but I don't get that anymore, please Lord help me, love me, show me the way into the world again...Just like the way it used to be!
