"Past, Present, Future"

You can't keep living in the past,
'cause it could come back,
and wake you in the night,
shivering, cold and scared.

Like those days in Middle School,
when the girls would tease you,
and the older boys would look,
up and down your frame with lust in their eyes.

Oh, you can't keep believing in days,
when your heart was smashed,
and good friends have gone away,
'cause here you have a boy,
who loves you, but he's not perfect.

And there might be some future there,
but are you too afraid to try?
he could be everything you want,
but it might just take some time.

He stands, willing and ready,
to change, to chisel away.
To take bad and good, be satisfied,
with just being in love.
