This piece stemmed from a rocky patch of my marriage. Thankfully all is well now. |
You've said what you had to And I can't bear it any more These words all so pointless From your mouth they pour But I don't want to hear it The flimsy sentences and lies Excuses grow to shouting What are you trying to disguise? Our words become visions Just a marriage to mask our fears Both trying so hard to uncover The treasure after all these years So I give up just like that Cause it's easier to run away You've got the door open for my departure I've felt the breeze steal sun and the day Pack all my things and wrap them up You're hardly breathing and can't believe I'll slam the wood behind me in my exit You've finally managed to make me leave Then I go and wander The night, it seems longer And I've got time to ponder But it makes me stronger I can feel our bond snap clean in two As I walk to where ground meets sky The tears run freely down my face now But you can't say that I didn't try Notes on paper release in the wind I write them down and let it go I'm not sure where you are right now Caught up in everything you think you know I could taste that smile Cause you're just so smart You aren't grinning now When these things fall apart Do you want me to say that I miss it? That I wish we could return to glory days? Well I can't, because it's really not true But I don't think this is what you wanted to do. |
