I just wrote this, at 11:00 pm. So...idk, what do YOU think?
Let's take a step out of reality, you and I
Take a step into Neverwas, Mightbe, Could'vebeen, Should'vebeen
Take a step into Whatwill, Whatif, MaybeI
Not Memory Lane, not a place to take a stroll, but somewhere more dark
You and I have been down this road before, we all have
You know where we are
It's a place we've all been traveling to far too often
I know, I know, this is not the happiest place, no one wants to be here, no one wants to live here
But some do, too many do
And everyday they see their greatest love walking out the door, everyday they don't stop them
Everyday they answer that text when they should have been watching the road
Far too many live here
I had a place not far from where we are now
And it's filled with these things
But I know
I know that grief is a step, anger is a step, it's all another step
On the staircase to moving on
Everything happens for a reason
You've heard me say it innumerable times
But it does, and we all come out stronger for it
Here, in the City of Regret, it's all past, it's all laid to rest in His eyes
Now you have to let go, time to move on, get up, face the future,
Even though the future will never arrive
Because all we have is
Right here
Right now
The time for regret is over
The time for hope, my friend in the mirror, is evermore, everalways, evernow
Time to face up, and move out
Of the City of Regret
