Falling
It’s this time of year that makes me wish you were here.
It’s hard to enjoy the falling leaves,
When all I have is this burden to heave,
So the next time you see me I want you to remember,
You’ll be the only thing on my mind till December,
You’re the reason that I hate this season,
And I know these words sound too cliché, but maybe it'll make everything okay,
Just to survive the chill in the autumn air, and pretending like I never cared.
I hope you know that I never liked the snow, but I’d beg for a flake for my heart's sake.
And every year gets worse, and i swear to god it's a curse,
So the next time you see me I want you to remember,
You’ll be the only thing on my mind till December
You’re the reason I hate this season.
