Our swan song
Every day it's the same ol song and dance
I wake up and look over
Let this nightmare be over
But still all I see is your cold empty pillow next me.
It's so plain and so clear
That i should move on
But it's that hope that keeps me here
It's in the food that I taste
The songs that hear
the pictures I see drives me to be
This fragile and lost soul
That you've never seen in me
And even as I write this
I tell my self why
You know she's probably under some guy
This fire ignites
When I think about it
I bet everything he's not even worth it
I'll do what ever it takes
To forget that pretty face
I tell myself look it's not even her
A cheap generic version of you
IS all that is see
When you look at me
This love that was shared I'll keep it here
Buried deep deep below
In a place you can't go
From now on our love is mine
It's no longer something you own
This person you are now
It's not who I know
So why do i give you
So much power to hold
I've got to be strong
I've got to move on
It's time for our song
To stop playing on n on
I'll forever be grateful
For the son that you gave me
He's the only thing left
That can make me happy
And I think I can be
Ok with that kind of ending ......
