And so it goes our way. It goes the way that it's always been headed. And I know why: we've reached this concession in words.

"Yeah right," you say, as i've been trying for four days to forget it. The mistakes i've made—still trying to forgive myself.

My life has a vertical composition, just look at the signs. The signs tell the whole truth, just look it's all there in my eyes. My life, with many colors applied, in layers to hide what I feel.

If I could believe what would I be: stronger, or weaker, or maybe just me? So many changes that I didn't want to see. But now i'm prepared for the changes in me.

Now it really goes my way as i've transcended bad feelings about it. You say, "Hey Taylor, just look at your life." Well it's mine, and i'm through talking to myself about it because I know that everything will be all right.

Was anybody listening when I said you'd never be alone? They could not believe us, but you said, "I'll never leave you. I'll never let you go."

[Letting go]

I try to release, but instead I find that when you are away there is no peace-of-mind. All in time I'll be shallow, a sea of blue. 'Cause there's no place for me in this world without you.

My life one year ago today? Just another chapter on confusion in the pages of a book about when I tried to define a "normal life." Somethings will never change, and I won't listen to what they say.

I'll never live this life as a life spent trying to avoid a bitter end. Instead I'll throw my caution to the wind and trust my beating heart to get me through this pain. And in vain I reach my arms and try to hold you. Can you feel me in your veins? Does your body start to shiver when you hear my name?

Four months to grow and any weakness is weak. I gave my heart to her, is that so hard to believe? A reflection of you is reflected in me.

Now that I can't be there when I really should be, I'm so sorry.

Can you forgive me for this burden on your life? But I know that someday everything will end up right when your heart's close to mine and I'll sing about how wonderful life turned out to be.

Shallow. A sea of blue. 'Cause there's no place for me in this world without you.
