You Gotta Know

I wish the circumstances

Were different

You know what my stance is

I love you and you know it

Why can't we take our chances

Like Rihanna we fell in love

in a hopeless place

My heart is rising above

I don't want to wait anymore

I need you in my life

I feel as though I am standing on the shore

of the ocean of chance and the continent of strife

but I gotta let you know

[Chorus]

I love you more

everytime I see your face

I love you more

with every word you say

I love you more

With every imagined embrace

We are meant to be

Always and forever

I know it's hard to see

If I will ever get over her

You need to know that I don't care

She was my world but know you're here

The cross of her love is mine to bare

Everytime you speak I shed a tear

I could just tell you we need to talk

I could just tell you

It seems you're not ready to take this walk

It seems my love you stare on through

You show you are there

everytime I cry

You prove you care

but you gotta know

(Chorus)

As I sit here in the dark

begging God to heal my heart

From the thrashing it got from the shark

I know you are just a click away

anytime I need you

My bitterness you do sway

Anytime I wonder where I went wrong

I am reminded by you

Maybe what was right was what was wrong

I'm falling to pieces then

unlike all the kings men

you put me back together again

I don't want to be your patient

no matter how hard I try you become my shrink

without you it seems I just can't face it

I sit here in silence

don't tell you what you need to know

chemistry is simple science

but you gotta know

(Chorus 2x)

I figure that was a good way to start my blog. Hi, I am Rick. I don't think I should give you any more information than that at this point. Hell, I don't even know why I am starting this blog to begin with. Maybe it's because a year ago my therapist told me I should start one since I seem to crave attention for my problems, it would give me a worldwide outlet that people can take part of if they wish, or don't. Maybe that is a good idea. Yeah, it took me a year to get to it...it is almost like everything my therapist has told me to do. It takes a long time for me to get around to doing what he says. Anyway, as I stated before my name is Rick and this is Rick's Rants. I didn't come up with the name, a good friend of mine did. I wish I could say I came up with it though. It is pretty nifty. So, this is just an introduction post and I think I am going to double post this morning to actually get out a real blog post. Don't hold me to that though. It could be days or weeks before I actually post again.
