Fifteen years

Holding on a thread        
losing grip bit by bit,      
pushed all to the limit      
till you let go of it...      
Reach within each fiber      
hope the string won't split,      
you know again you slipped        
under all you never did...        
       
Fifteen years rinse repeat      
come undone each day and night      
Fifteen years no colour      
cause it's all just black and white        
       
Fifteen years a casualty        
so close but yet so far      
Fifteen years not over      
Accept just who you are        
       
MIrror of damaged goods        
an image never okay,      
Whipe clean every day,      
but the face won't fade away....      
Wish you're someone else        
to keep the fear at bay,      
remember what they say      
dreams aren't meant to stay...        
       
Fifteen years rinse repeat      
come undone each day and night      
Fifteen years no colour      
cause it's all just black and white        
       
Fifteen years it took to heal      
this used up, broken heart      
Fifteen years it took to feel      
Just to be pulled apart...
