Turn Me Around by ~3HoursAway:icon3HoursAway:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Fixed


Here I go,
Gonna sink too low;
Maybe I bit off more,
Than I could swallow.
Tell me it's all right,
And I'll be okay,
And I'll find a smile,
For another day.

Turn me around,
Tell me everything will be all right again.
Turn me around,
Tell me it'll be okay in the end.
My soul is screaming for you.
I don't know what to do about you;
And I'll never be okay without you,
As my friend.

Here I go,
Things are moving slow.
Maybe today will end,
Before tomorrow.
Tell me I'm okay,
And I'll be all right;
And I will find a smile that'll last
All through the night.

Turn me around,
Tell me everything will be all right again.
Turn me around,
Tell me it'll be okay in the end.
My heart is aching for you.
I don't know how to breathe without you,
And I never want to be without you,
As my friend.

Just a simple thing,
Or a song or anything.
Let me feel you on my side.
Let me feel you by my side.

Turn me around,
Tell me everything will be all right again.
Turn me around,
Tell me it'll be okay in the end.
I'm kind of insane about you.
I feel kind of lame around you,
But I don't know my name without you,
As my friend.

Author's Comments

Was just debating friendship in my head and put a finger on what friends should be. Well, being friends can mean a lot of different things. But I think the truest friends are not the ones you have the best times with. The truest friends are the ones who are willing to kick your ass until you become what you're supposed to be. The ones who make you become yourself, and are the ones who WANT you to be yourself, even if it's not perfect.

I love reading what you write.

You make me emotional.

In a good way.

And my bright eyes. I never said they were perfect.
So let's not get hurt. I want to live another day.

Makes me think of that song "Don't turn around" And once that was in my head, it wouldn't stop! ;)
But very nice, I like it.

your writing always seems to create a certain atmosphere that i can't describe, but that i really like. so it kind of sucks when you don't write very often... but i guess that makes your poems that much better. i really like this one in particular - one of my friends has been on vacation for the past week-and-a-bit, and this piece seems to fit that situation perfectly...

Being half-dead wasn't what I planned to be;
Now I'm ready to be free...

*agrees with the comment about the atmosphere your work has* i have a proposition for you, so expect an email : D

The part of you
that's part of me
will never die,
will never leave,
and it's nobody else's but mine.
You are in my heart,
I can feel your beat.

Rest Peacefully, Ian.
