A Thousand Strings Inside

gregorio

gregorio, you're a strong man as your name speaks
you've been through everything
now you're supposed to get off your knees
but damn, man, you're still crying
over things you can't fix when your lips taste like beer
I don't blame you for being weak
you have a pure soul, beautiful personality, fixed and unchangeable
I couldn't change your mind
you know I couldn't change your mind

gregorio, you're always drivin' fast
I can't save you with the wars in your mind
but one thing I could promise
I'll always be there in those nights
you'll have me beside you when you have your saddest stories to tell
those mistakes, those regrets, the flames raging in your heart
oh, gregorio, you love so hard, you give everything you have
but you can't let yourself feel
that same scorching love

my friend, I'm living for the day
when you're alone and you could
finally draw a smile on your face
you always needed someone
all you need is to find happiness

And just for this time
You can keep it for yourself

I've seen it in films, you could laugh about it
but it's not impossible for things to get better, right?
we'll have those days when all we could do is have fun and laugh
and we'll forget the nights we felt like unwanted criminals
hated and cursed but never sought for
we'll be free and finally cross the fine line
we'll be the kids that slipped into time

we'll dance through the moonlight
gregorio, you are loved, you are seen
people keep stretching their hands
now you only have to take those you want
who doesn't want to get better, right?
there's nothing wrong with you, that's for sure
you're a fine man, gregorio, you're one I look up to
it's one step backwards to end it all
it's all you need, you have to pause for a while
and find yourself laid
within the whispers of these cold December nights.
