When There is A World Without You
All I ever wanted was to hear your voice on the phone
That would tell me that everything was going to be okay,
But I know I had to get back to reality and the fact that
You would never come crawling back to me. I am all alone
In the place I used to call home and the dark, cloudy gray
Sky is just a reminder that I would better without a flat
Smile. I know I am better without the empty promises and
The fact that you want to keep talking now that I am moving
Onto someone new. It is like you want to keep messing with
Me, but you have to know that it is too late to understand
Everything from your point of view. I am safely removing
Myself from this. I hoped you would do the same. The myth
That keeps surrounding you will follow you until there is dirt
Over your grave and your heart has finally given up for good.
It is only then that you will realize that there was someone
Who truly cared about you. I hope you understand the hurt
And pain you caused me, enough to last a lifetime. I could
Have gone back to refill your empty cup, but I do not run
Back to someone who has not changed their repeating
Patterns and bad habits. My words that are the carriers
Of the truth and my sky has finally gone from gray to blue.
There is no way that I could keep walking and meeting
You halfway when you cannot even respect my barriers
Because I am finally in a better place. I am finally over you.
That would tell me that everything was going to be okay,
But I know I had to get back to reality and the fact that
You would never come crawling back to me. I am all alone
In the place I used to call home and the dark, cloudy gray
Sky is just a reminder that I would better without a flat
Smile. I know I am better without the empty promises and
The fact that you want to keep talking now that I am moving
Onto someone new. It is like you want to keep messing with
Me, but you have to know that it is too late to understand
Everything from your point of view. I am safely removing
Myself from this. I hoped you would do the same. The myth

Over your grave and your heart has finally given up for good.
