It’s Only Temporary Harley Poe

What I thought was love has me falling apart
Don't know if I can heal from this broken heart
Didn't think my partner would ever give up on me
Guess I made it hard when I wouldn't give in
Looking back on all my selfishness and all my sin
You were drowning in the darkness that made it so I couldn't see
I wanna go back to the days when I wasn't afraid
The good life with my wife and the family we made
There was once a time when everything seemed alright

So take me back to the time when I was a boy
Before innocence was lost and released its joy
But that was all in the past and it was only temporary

Now I gotta move, I gotta play my part
Focus on my children and my music and art
Life ain't gonna stop and wait for a shit like me
Learn from my regrets and I'll try to be
A good man working hard with integrity
I'm changing my perspective and that's what's gonna set me free
I wanna look now to the world that i'm living in
Time to stand up on my own and it's time to begin
I'm only bound by the limits I set for myself

I gotta have hope for the future no matter the case
looking forward with my dreams until I reach that place
It doesn't matter if I fail
Cause life is only temporary
