my user manual

If you plan to love me your going to have to not

Not care what the rest of the world says when they tell you its not worth a shot

Have to not get stuck on my fits or my childish temper

Have to not make fun when I fail and emit a puppyish whimper

You will have to not get stuck on the small towns mirage of who I used to be

a lot of folks percieve what they knew of the old me

A child with foolish ways

Honey spinning their wheels they spend their days

They don’t know about the demons I carry inside

If they really knew what I am behind different words they would cower and hide.

They are looking down upon a mountain they cant be anything other than blind

But if im the one thing you decide to get behind

Ill brush the hair from you face the storm will go away.

Because if you have to not I will have to.

let you stare it to these blue eyes and count the shades of blue

If you can look past the soldier and see whats inside

You may find in you my treasures may confide

Behind a beaming smile you will catch glances of a man built to succede

And bigger than the life I live my heart is indeed

Sit and listen to the story the scars on my skin have to tell

Give a silent smile when every song on the radio I do yell

Im a free spirit living life bigger than most know how

Your going to have to get used to the bigger things in life if you have to not

Ive been their seen it and given it way to much thought

Hold on because you don’t know it yet but it will be on hell of a ride

And know that in me all your trust and hope you can confide.

Im not like the other guys im not something that can be bought

So hunny im begging you

Have to not.
