Broken Heartstrings

You've said what you had to

And I can't bear it any more

These words all so pointless

From your mouth they pour

But I don't want to hear it

The flimsy sentences and lies

Excuses grow to shouting

What are you trying to disguise?

Our words become visions

Just a marriage to mask our fears

Both trying so hard to uncover

The treasure after all these years

So I give up just like that

Cause it's easier to run away

You've got the door open for my departure

I've felt the breeze steal sun and the day

Pack all my things and wrap them up

You're hardly breathing and can't believe

I'll slam the wood behind me in my exit

You've finally managed to make me leave

Then I go and wander

The night, it seems longer

And I've got time to ponder

But it makes me stronger

I can feel our bond snap clean in two

As I walk to where ground meets sky

The tears run freely down my face now

But you can't say that I didn't try

Notes on paper release in the wind

I write them down and let it go

I'm not sure where you are right now

Caught up in everything you think you know

I could taste that smile

Cause you're just so smart

You aren't grinning now

When these things fall apart

Do you want me to say that I miss it?

That I wish we could return to glory days?

Well I can't, because it's really not true

But I don't think this is what you wanted to do.
