My happiness has died but you will never know has I look at people that believe I am happy
My heart Is a happy drunk A little too open A little too optimistic It's over in the corner of the bar Playing poker Screaming at the top of it's lungs I'M ALL IN When it's never To this day Had a winning hand My heart Is a sad drunk A little too lonely A little too caught up in tears It's over at the counter Forcing the bartender to take its keys Because it would rather not go home Than go home alone again My heart Is a reckless drunk A little too unbalanced A little too impaired It's over by the door Making everyone nervous A little too good at scaring people away A little too far gone Like you A little too far gone Turn your head Shuffle away and pretend you don't notice The breakdown of a heart Too drunk on feelings To know when to stop

too far gone
I think I loved you most the winter your heating was broken And we’d stay inside all morning Pretending to complain that we couldn’t get out of bed Our clothes becoming little islands on the floor, Ones that we could not quite find the courage to visit Your hand stayed glued to my hip, Your breath warming my shoulder Like a long drag of whiskey That kind that had a home so far away, In a glass bottle on top of your refrigerator. The one that would not be opened Until that fateful day in February, When everything went wrong And on that unbearable night When you joked that you’d freeze to death if I left you There was a long silence Like it might be true. Now it’s warm enough That I show too much skin when sitting in bars And you avoid me like the plague, Whispering in any girl’s ear that’s near to you Every time you see me watching out of the corner of your eye We should have stayed inside when the ice began to melt Because I think When those doors opened and we finally ventured outside The world had changed, And so had you and I.

winter
And here we go.... Another endless day While I watch everyone else being happy Content Alive. I feel like I am stuck Stuck in a never ending cycle of sadness I was happy Now I am depressed What am I to do? If I could let you go If I wouldn't regret it for everyday of my life If I didn't love you All of that would be easy for me I love too hard, You are mine. Not hers, But you seem to go back whenever you please, leaving me with false hope and a broken heart You love me? Then why You know you can't keep both of us, but you're happier with her.. I can't do this anymore, I care too much I love too much Somedays I want to die The heartache hurts too bad I cry myself to sleep. I just want you to want me Like I do But you've done it again...
