Torn Sole

I watched you go running today I watched as you looked and looked Throwing things here and there Searching for a companion You threw me a glance and sighed I hoped It flowed through my laces down to my soles but you quickly dismissed me and left me on the floor I know why you don't take me out anymore I know why you don't think twice about me Its because you bought him He is so much more colorful and I am just generic He has more body and I am worn out He is attention grabbing and I get bypassed But I know that he doesn't love you like I do Where we plowed through mud he makes you stick to concrete Where we ran through rain he only goes out on sunny days Where we broke records by minutes he only gives you a couple seconds Sometimes I think, on those days when the sun never greets me that our bond broke, the day I let you get injured I'm sorry, you know I think of leaving on those days So I no longer have to see you with him But I will wait here for you Till there are holes in my soles and tears in my laces Because on the days he leaves you, sore and exhausted You always reach out for me For comfort And that gives me hope
