I'm not the Man who used to be

What’s in it for you!?

What’s in it for us??

I can never be self-less like this, I used to be self-centered before,

I brought you tears when you needed a smile

I brought sleepless nights when those times we should be havin’ a great time...

Those were before… I learned from it, never to start a relationship unless I chose to.

We meet again; all is well I thought for we’re now wiser than the child we used to be.

All grown up, time and distance brought changes and so the ideas we had.

But look at what happen, I still resolve to reasons at times you think right.

The guilt I have at your pleas.

I don’t want to sound all knowing,

I think of none but your mending heart,

That lovely piece I ought to heal,

The one I broke to pieces when I shouldn’t have to.

I hope you understand,

I’m a changed man,

I’ve learned to close doors when I want to…

I’ve taught my mind to think beyond emotion…

For what I am now… there is one changed thing.

I’m not that boy who can give you the laugh, 

the one to put a smile on your face.

The one you blight to love no more…

 For I’m not the man you used to love before.
