Why?
Today you turned away
From HER
And looked at me
A glance that twisted my stomach
And made me stop
Stop breathing
Stop THINKING
A smile in fleeting
Like the last flower of fall
Bittersweet
A reminder of what you've lost
That it would mean nothing
Nothing to HER
Nothing to YOU
Kills me
Tears me apart
That you can't see what I see
You were perfect before
With all your flaws intact
When love was simple
And a kiss was sacred
But you lost it all
To be with someone BETTER
Better then ME
Better then LOVE
I told you a thousand times
And I would have told you
A million more...
Knowing that you didn't care
Should stop this aching
This need to keep you safe
And yet..
That fleeting moment means
EVERYTHING
and absolutely
Nothing
From HER
And looked at me
A glance that twisted my stomach
And made me stop
Stop breathing
Stop THINKING
A smile in fleeting
Like the last flower of fall
Bittersweet
A reminder of what you've lost
That it would mean nothing
Nothing to HER
Nothing to YOU
Kills me
Tears me apart
That you can't see what I see
You were perfect before
With all your flaws intact
When love was simple
And a kiss was sacred
But you lost it all
To be with someone BETTER
Better then ME
Better then LOVE
I told you a thousand times
And I would have told you
A million more...
Knowing that you didn't care
Should stop this aching
This need to keep you safe
And yet..
That fleeting moment means
EVERYTHING
and absolutely
Nothing
