Clockwork

They say time heals all wounds
So @ what time am I going to feel better this time
Maybe time should fast forward for a few seconds
and tell me that the next time would be the same
as the last time.
Maybe time forgot that last time ....
I was holding on to every breath and every second that past
Because last time I didn't think it was going to be the same

Maybe time forgot about me
like it forgot the number 13
13 times were the chances I gave you
the promises you broke... the times I spent
believing that the next time was going to be different
The only thing that was different this time is that
I didn't glance at my watch when the number 13 came up
that's when you told me
"This just wasn't our time"
How clever of me to switch to military time
I guess it was my time to know that it took time to
break me
make me
build me ,
in to a better person
Because I learned my lesson
from the last time
so next time I know..
I don't need that much time to know
that next time I won't look at my watch
to know when it's time to look at the next guy....
