Broken and Undone





You called me yesterday
To tell me how you are
I still feel emotion
Even though you are so far
Far away from me
You speak to me again
It's not like I can turn from where we've been

Like you can
Like you can


It's not fair that you can put your arms around me
And feel nothing more than the warmth beneath my skin
I will try to run from all that I'm thinking
And you will pull me in once again

I'm trying my best to run away
Start my life with a new escape
Sand and sun to replace what I feel
I'll smoke my life away with dark wine
And you will carry on just fine without me
Without what was real

March says Hi
December Good bye
But the bed still warm where you used to lie
Down with me, swallowing my tears
Me with bright eyes
And you with your pride
You just sat there as I cried
Over and over living in my fears

It's not fair that you can put your arms around me
And feel nothing more than the warmth beneath my skin
I will try to run from all that I'm thinking
And you will pull me in once again

Eight months away and you called me today
Just to remind you're still alive
And I  don't quite know just what I'm wondering
My time to heal was your time to thrive

Broken and undone

"Say Good Bye"



My glass is full
And you hold my wine
For every storm thats ever come
There comes a time
To say good bye
And I don't wanna cry
But here you leave me

My lipstick stains the palm of my hand
No need to wear it now
Corsets and bridesmaids follow my lead
As I take the last bow
To say good bye
And I don't wanna cry
But here you leave me
Now

I knew all along the answers I didn't want to see
I felt the hairs raise on your chest as you felt inside of me
I don't want to say good bye
I want to cry
But here you leave me now

Whiskey and bubbles
Flat to the taste
My only reliever
My only escape
From the fantasies
That live in death with me
Now that your "alive"

And I'll color my hair
I'll brown my skin
I'll be the days of glamor and thin
But it won't take away
The pain I feel inside
You'll kiss my lips
And I'll reminisce
Thinking off all the things that we missed
Out on, now that we have died

I knew all along the answers I didn't want to see
I felt the hairs raise on your chest as you felt inside of me
I don't want to say good bye
I want to cry
But here you leave me now

Where did we go?
Where were we ever?
Was nothing he told me right?
The tears inside my heart need answers before I can give up my fight
To say good bye
And I want to cry
But here you leave me
Now.
