Stori

Written in December of 2004

Too much time had passed us by.
The moments slip through the needle's eye.
An isolated silent cry goes without you to pacify.
It would have been so different you see.
Without the things they had said to me.
The stories told on my loneliest days.
Of how you gave your love away.

The truth is kept away from you
because of what you put me through.
You'll never know how I long for you.
I wish you knew that my love was true.
You put it out it was on display.
I never felt such disarray.
The damage of the stories told.
And now I must return to the cold.

Why can't you see? I thought that you were meant for me
But now I know. We are something that will never be.

Keep it down, down. Don't let it out.
Keep it down, down. Don't let your secret out.
Keep it low, low. Don't let it show.
Keep it on the down low, I don't wanna know.

There was a life for us, but now the time has gone.
They turned me away from you, and
I wanted to prove them wrong.
But unfortunately they were right, and I never felt the same.
You had your chance to play, but you never knew the game!

Keep it down, down. Don't let it out.
Keep it down, down. Don't let your secret out.
Keep it low, low. Don't let it show.
Keep it on the down low, I don't wanna know.

Why can't you see? I thought that you were meant for me
But now I know. We are something that will never be.
You pass my eye, and I see the picture in my mind;
Of you and him, and this is where our stori ends.

Too much time had passed us by.
The moments slip through the needle's eye.
An isolated silent cry goes without you to pacify.
It would have been so different you see.
Without the things they had said to me.
The stories told on my loneliest days.
Of how you gave your love away, so:

Keep it down, down. Don't let it out.
Keep it down, down. Don't let your secret out.
Keep it low, low. Don't let it show.
Keep it on the down low, I don't wanna know.

Why can't you see? We are something that will never be.
Why can't you see? We are something that will never be.
