Untitled

by OkayAndAlways

It's been raining all day And how fitting it seems We knew it'd happen eventually So why am I having trouble breathing? I watch you fall through emotions Like the rolling thunder outside You try to understand my mind But oh, I've broken your heart so I'm not sure what delusion I was in That this wouldn't be a messy conclusion Or that I could somehow make you understand That loving someone doesn't mean they're best You're no good and I know it I'm no good though I've tried But your touch is like heroin Toxic as it seems It takes me higher and higher And I've played these games for far too long Running away from a truth I've known So how can I be so surprised That you lash out and scream 'why' I dream about the day years from now When I run into you on the street You'll have her hand in yours And I'll be alone We'll catch eyes, and for a brief moment We'll go back to those times of love and loss But then we'll smile, and casually walk on And that, dear man, is why I can't find the words to speak I know this is really the end
