i cant get no satisfaction

i cant get no satisfaction no matter how hard i try

bending myself beyond backwards to make myself comfortable to you

when you reach for me it wont be far

i am right here

right here to the point that i believe we are breathing the same air

our nostrils are competing for the same stream of oxygen

i cant get no satisfaction for the simple fact that i cant accept reality

it hurts to much to know that the person that i consider my everything wants nothing to do with me

for the simple fact he believed he waited to long

then when the time came we jumped

head on into bed

bumping heads

bypassing the fact that

we wasnt ready

we acted with our pulsating privates instead of our hearts

now were're both silently wounded

not saying a word to one another for the fear of pride

not wanting to seem like a quitter

but how do you quit something that isnt working with your respect still in tact

is that even possible

or do you just convince yourself to make it work

driving yourself wild

how do you forget the one only thing that youve known

when we went our separate ways we always found our way back to each other

doesnt that count for something

i guess not

when its all said and done

it doesnt feel right

the pieces doesnt fit perfectly the way they use to before we broken them

i cant get no satisfaction from whatever decision i make

Great, real-life write. It reads like you already made the wise decision, just having trouble following through with it. We all go through it. #Respect
