The past of this young boy wasn't made to be rehashed
But this is the lyrical story of the pain that amassed
He gave up, misunderstood at the bright age of 16
Supposed to be the best years, yet became anything but clean
Confused and distressed, he delved into the eyes of a single
So perfect yet so tainted, he sheltered her pain like a shingle
They worked together, and had so much in common
Hated eveyone else, but her experience was the evil shaman
It pained the boy to see her hidden agenda
Taunted with the facts, to be lax wasn't worth the splenda
He spent all his time, only trying to further impress
Like a mother with a newborn, her face he wanted to caress
One day her mind had a faint flicker of change
The kid got a taste of reality, and his tongue was bathed in her soft range
The sweet smell he had so longed was tasted
But only to be destroyed the next day, his struggle to be wasted
Like the ancient Aztec empire, his emotions were overtaken with a simple plan
Thus his blushing dimple faded and jaded was his new reprimand
She told him of those who tasted the sweetest taste she could offer
Like teasing a homeless dog, she held in front of his face her water
To the boy it was stagnant, the former bliss had just faded
But he still had the tendency to ponder what they may have created
Then the time came to finally depart from his former world
Three hours north brought on his conceited life, his revenge to be hurled
He starved himself, lifted weights until he exhausted
Got back into shape, and became the new hot kid that lost it
Anorexic and taking six Stackers every day
Doubled the recommended limit, a palpatation on the way
But he felt better thinking everyone to be beneath
Only to find himself more misearable under the facade he bequeathed
Lost as ever, this young man plans his future
Just then he realizes the one who can mend his suture
One he made fun of, as a conceited high school senior
He thought he was too good, but underneath she crept to his demeanor
She has always known that they should be together
But his negligence led them to both be miserable....almost forever
Until that one fateful day when he made his valiant leap
He started a relationship and alleviated her of her creep
Now they've been together for almost two years
The time has gone so fast, another 50 will bring more tears
Pledged never to depart these two are always connected
Not always happy, but the love is forever resurrected
Only the future can tell, what happens to this man
This is how he has grown up, I've seen it first hand
