You can’t say you,
Didn’t expect this,
It’s been a long time coming,
Empty words and promises.
These hollow words echo,
With the words of yesterday,
Back when everything seemed real,
When we both could see a future.
But people grow apart,
Thoughts change,
And grow unclean,
These butterflies depart,
And in their place,
This weight,
This sinking feeling,
This great distraction,
Forgetting of what was once so pure,
So perfect,
But now,
So yesterday.
You’ve found your rut,
A new place to rest your head,
All your fears,
And your self-loathing,
Self-pity,
Unwarranted and unexplained,
When all I did was try,
It all went unnoticed,
By only you,
While those around you,
Had nothing but sympathy.
Your silhouette,
Growing thinner everyday,
Finds it’s place inside my mind,
Right in the back with other thoughts,
Of days gone by and,
And there you’ll stay,
And fade to grey,
You’ll fade to grey.
It’s easier said than done,
To weigh things up,
And just decide,
Things that should be perfect,
And bring jealousy from those around you,
But I’ll let them fall,
By the wayside,
You should know me better by now,
Things are not okay,
They’re empty, and they’re broken,
And it’s a foolish part I play.
I’ve lost track of who’ll be there,
To catch me when I fall.
Who will be there to catch me, when I fall?
