I wrote this about when you're unable to determine the right decision when it comes to love... and there's 2 ways this could go. If you make the wrong decision, it can lead to downright doom. I couldn't help but to feel amused by the saying 'Beware The Ides Of March' and how there are constantly warning signs that we'll tend to ignore. How do we know if the choice that we're making is right? The thing is we don't know for sure, we just must keep straying ahead with the decision we're making... even if the consequences that lie ahead are fatal and brutal.


1ST VERSE:

Doomsday has approached, should I keep an eye on the road?

Making the wrong decision can be life-changing

And there's two ways this could go

Oblivious to consequences, believing I hold omniscience

Risk being dead to you, which would I know would stab the most

Or lay low with you, hidden from the coast


CHORUS:

Beware the ides of March taking a toll on this heart

Dare I listen? No, not even in the start

When words written ( are ) so distant

Now comes forthwith brutal aftermath shot in the dark

Inner intuition set off into intermission

Did I take it too far? Now it's time to depart

Farewell these ides of March


2ND VERSE:

If it's fate, can I even escape it?

Simply not meant to be, yet I cherish you so sacred

Cause there's misery pinned to anything sweet

And your presence is only tempting me

Only time can alter my perception

I would've gladly allowed you to be my exception 

But would it merely have been a misconception?


CHORUS:

Beware the ides of March taking a toll on this heart

Dare I listen? No, not even in the start

When words written ( are ) so distant

Now comes forthwith brutal aftermath shot in the dark

Inner intuition set off into intermission

Did I take it too far? Now it's time to depart

Farewell these ides of March


BRIDGE:

I've crossed upon all the warning signs

Leading up to our fatal demise

But I don't think I'll change my mind this time

Impending doom leads me to falling for you

Even when it stabs and pierces through my heart

32 times yet I don't mind the scars

For you, I'd forever fall apart

Just for you to put me back together again


CHORUS:

Beware the ides of March taking a toll on this heart

Dare I listen? No, not even in the start

When words written ( are ) so distant

Now comes forthwith brutal aftermath shot in the dark

Inner intuition set off into intermission

Did I take it too far? Now it's time to depart

Farewell these ides of March
