Song Lyrics & Meaning

Maybe I'm wrong for giving out my heart
And maybe I'm a fool for planning out a dream
Maybe I'm wrong for blocking out what scares me most
The thought, it haunts me 'till it hurts

Maybe I'm foolish for giving all I got
And putting all my wishes into what I believed
Yeah, maybe I'm stupid for smoking 'till my lungs can't breathe
At least for now, it puts my stress to sleep

Maybe I'm stupid for opening the door
And letting you into my dark and painful world
It's crazy how soon though you brightened up this life for me
Yet somehow now, the lights went out again

I better stock up on meds
And even some cigarettes
Anything to get me through
The thought, the thought
The lonely road ahead

Maybe I'm wrong for giving out my heart
Maybe I'm wrong for planning out my dream
Maybe I'm stupid for saying now what scares me most
The thought, the thought
The lights are out again
The thought, the thought
My lonely road ahead

(So this is one of my most recent songs. It's one I poured my heart into. My girlfriend of a year broke up with me a few days after our anniversary because her "feelings were changing". I loved her with all my heart and honestly, I thought she was the one. I know how stupid that sounds because I'm so young, but she made me believe it. She told me it every day too. I was a fool for believing it. My feelings obviously didn't matter to her, and I obviously didn't mean as much as she meant to me. It sucks to get your heart broken. And guess what? I turned to cigarettes because they take away the stress. Only temporarily though. And they're fuckin up my voice too. If I don't quit soon, I can pretty much kiss my singing career goodbye. I wrote this song while we were still dating, but I knew the end was coming soon. And I'm so lost and confused now. Majority of the songs I have up on YouTube were for her, and majority of the songs I still haven't put up yet were made for her. She inspired me to write music. She supported me no matter what. And now it's gone. It's hard to even pick up my guitar since all of this happened because she's all that comes to mind. I'm thinking of taking a break or even quitting on my music. I know it's not the right thing to do, but life serves me no purpose anymore. I've got a lonely road ahead.)

My dear boy Matt. If i could take away your pain and have it be mine, I would. Making yourself vulnerable and giving all of your heart is the only way to experience love at such a profound level. Don't let the pain of losing a relationship rob you from experiencing lifes greatest thing...LOVE. Let God continue to turn these dark and painfull moments into a blessing through your music. Feel your pain and write and sing. That is purpose at a level that most people avoid.Good work Matt Your Papa

Matt, you can't write your masterpiece and say your gonna quit. thats wrong!!!!

This song is a sign of a new beginning.

This new life can only bring more inspiration to paper and your guitar.

Don't quit.. Stay Strong..Keep your head up

im agreeing with the people here. i know its so hard right now to say goodbye to someone you love. but i promise you it will get easier. sometimes you have to forget about the people in the past, theres a reason why they didn't make it to the present. you have an amazing gift matt. don't let it slip away

[TesRsica]

your lyrics are so deep.. but so in pain. You have a gift Matthew, don't stop your music, no matter how much you may want to please don't. You may look back years from now and regret it so much. Don't stop. Stay strong.

Cousin! Every song you write is so pretty! This one is sad, but it's really beautiful. Don't ever stop!
