Placed Above

I caught myself daydreaming tonight
nothing else had a chance in my head
now I feel everything'll be alright
soon there'll be nothing left to dread

I wonder if somehow you knew
all those years ago
that maybe one day when I grew
we'd have memories to show

Did you know from the beginning
that my heart would always be yours?
I bet you knew you'd end up winning
and I'd open up all these doors

I think now, having surrendered for the moment
of your smile, your eyes, your heart
the power you have seems so heaven-sent
and then of how we'll soon be apart...

I'm sorry I have to go, my love
but I write this now to say
that you're my world, placed above
anyone else to this very day.

"it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
that maybe this year will be better than the last"

Addendum

You say enough with the games
As you speak with a forked tongue
You say I'll be taking the blames
As your words come totally undone

So tell me, in years to come
How blissful life is without me
As your heart grows cold and numb
Next time 'round, will you bleed for me?

I do wish you happiness though
And everything you deserve
After all, it just goes to show
You're not the person I serve.
