|
She's breaking up, she's falling down |
|
She's holding her fists up now |
|
Her eyes meet my face but we don't look the |
|
Same She walks away, on bloody knees |
|
Her swollen face hides her tears |
|
My mind strains for words but my tongue won't obey |
|
You're just a shadow now of the girl |
|
I used to know |
|
Your broken song is maimed and slow |
|
You strain your face to bear that smile |
|
Your teeth clenched tightly all the while and though you search so thoroughly for some place to put the blame |
|
It only rests on angry shoulders and you don't look the same |
|
Your pretty face now contorted haggard with shame |
|
I try to recognize your anger |
|
I try to recognize your hatred |
|
I try to find some purpose for your pride |
|
So cease your screaming now because your voice is worn and hoarse your song insinuates divorce your poison love |
|
I won't pursue your not the lover |
|
I once knew and though you speak so firmly of maxims so bold your lips mouth words of love but still your voice is callused and cold |
|
I try to understand what made this mess unfold |
|
I'm sure you couldn't be blamed your features haven't changed and yet |
|
I can't Imagine why you don't look the same and your song of broken trust is grating on my ears |
|
I'm tired of standing passive while you're preying on my fears |
|
I'm tired of trying to fight, |
|
I'm tired of taking sides you say that you're not angry but |
|
I see it in your eyes |
|
I'm tired of hearing rumors, |
|
I'm tired of hiding shame |
|
I'm tired of pointing fingers and never taking blame |
|
I'm tired of trying to talk |
|
I've nothing left to say |
|
I'm tired of going on so |
|
I'm going away |
