|
You've buried me here and |
|
I can't turn off my eyes, only sinking |
|
You've hidden the keys to sleep |
|
The sweet careful lines we've crossed |
|
And now we never can go back |
|
This is what I felt just being myself |
|
But I know that you wouldn't stay |
|
Standing at my car with my reasons spent |
|
As you drove and made your escape |
|
The silence crushing me like I swore it would |
|
And I'm left watching red lights fading out |
|
I refuse to accept these excuses you're making |
|
As you drive back to your house |
|
To save yourself from taking blame |
|
The only reason that you came at all |
|
(I'm here sinking and now we never can go back) |
|
I chose every word that I knew would hurt |
|
But that was a poor choice at best |
|
This weak disguise, your careless replies |
|
That you made at my expense |
|
You swore this was right |
|
It was better that you're leaving |
|
But I'm here with red lights fading out |
|
I refuse to accept these excuses you're making |
|
As you drive back to your house |
|
To save yourself from taking blame |
|
The only reason that you came at all |
|
And I'm here with my curbside goodbye |
|
This sting in my eyes |
|
Won't leave me tonight as I stay awake |
|
To watch the day start without you |
|
I'm here sinking, now we can never go back |
|
My foundation crippled and cracked |
|
Broken, severed, bleed out the hurt |
|
Two people dissolve into words |
|
Red lights fading out |
|
As you drive back to your house |
|
The way I've gone a hundred times before |
|
But now I'm left behind |
|
To make all of this make sense |
|
And now your voice is haunting me |
|
Just out of reach, it buries me |
|
Is this the better off that you meant? |
|
The way I've gone a hundred times before |
|
But now I'm left behind |
|
To make all of this make sense |
|
And now your voice is haunting me |
|
Just out of reach, it buries me |
|
It buries me, it buries me |
|
I'm here sinking, we never can go back |
