Verse
1:
I
always seem to ask…
At
what point did I go wrong?
When
did I realize,
When
did it dawn??
That
we were never on the same page
Not
even hearing the same love song?
Cause
right now I always seem to crumble,
Totally
melt and rapidly fall
Question
my existence
Though,
I know, I’d given my all…
Still,
I’ll pour my soul
Black
and dusty as old coal
Wondering
if this half of me could be whole, someday?.......
--------------------
(Chorus) --------------------------------------------------
How could you leave me?
Just needed to be free…
We always argued to disagree
Didn’t want and couldn’t see…
You and me, weren’t a guarantee
Couldn’t make you happy…
I’ll try not
to let this bitter heart close.
--------------------------------------------------
Verse
2:
The
times I imagine things inside-out
Let
out a crazy scream or discerning shout
Frantically
searching for the answer
Life
just continues to throw me about.
Eventually
know I’m okay without….
YOU….
But still sometimes jumbled thoughts
quickly compound
Wretched fingers wrapped so tightly
around
Asphyxiating anxiety, shoved to the
ground
But still
searching for the words, to say…
--------------------
(Chorus) --------------------------------------------------
Stay with me…
Don’t leave me be.
I always seemed to disagree
All I saw was you and me… My eternity
Growing old by the sea...
I’m angry, So fucking angry!
Reflecting on the memories
I can’t let
this bitter heart close…
I can’t..
I won’t
I won’t let this bitter heart close…
--------------------------------------------------
Verse
3:
I’m
an antelope who’s strayed from the herd.
A
dream deferred.
A
torn-winged bird,
Crooning
a melody, still unheard
So
melancholic with the tragedy incurred
I
know I loved with no reserve…
Even though
everything still fell apart.
I’m
learning how to say adieu,
Let
go of the days where I felt so blue
My
tears will dry like the morning dew
Words
from your mouth won’t seem so untrue.
And
I’m able to find love again…..
--------------------
(Chorus) --------------------------------------------------
I don’t need you to stay with me…
You can leave, you can be free!
I’m casting my line out to sea
Knowing
from a new seed, grows a new tree.
Onto
a new start, both you and me.
Someday
for my pod, I’ll find another pea
Happy
loving, living and being ME!
And I didn’t
let this bitter heart close.
Didn’t close.whoaaaa…
Wouldn’t
let it. Couldn’t let it.
Didn’t
close…
Didn’t close, didn’t close cause I
chose…
Cause I chose.
Cause I chose to keep my beating
heart open.
END-
