Should have been more than a dream

But we built our futures and our hopes

On foundations

Of broken bones

We’ve been down this road before

I take your honey and your venom words

You took everything I needed to believe

And threw it away

How can we keep living, keep on deceiving

Ourselves and the world

With its prying eyes?

Our only common thread is longing for the love

We never got

So I’m one foot out the door

I think we’ve both been since long ago

The rain is pouring, know it’s time to go

And your hands grow colder still

It follows even across the ocean

A slamming door, yelling on city streets

Make me jump and fill my gut with dread

Even though you’re gone

Should you be forgiven

Since you say

That you don’t realize the words you said

If you don’t remember, should I forgive?

But how could you forget?

So I’m one foot out the door

I think we’ve both been since long ago

The rain is pouring, know it’s time to go

And your hands grow colder still

My love and giving hand won’t help you, I know

You can’t receive and don’t know how to grieve

The one thing I should do, I know

Is turn my back on my blood,

My greatest friend
