Left Behind

They easily left in a remorseless goodbye I tried to forget and seemed to get by The hardest part of moving on Is always remembering that they’re gone Even if they’ve forgotten about me Feelings can’t be erased nor the memories Friends stick together and lovers depart I’ll say I’m better but always feel the spark With a promising brandish it died on your end My heart sunk and drowned, trying to pretend That I felt okay, that I was going through some phase Everyone assumed, but it never felt that way What does it matter, you have a wife and kids To be trusted and lusted by you I’d sacrifice anything to give But dreams like that never come true Happy ever after seems a faraway thing Effervescent laughter inside two rings That sparkle on both of your intertwined hands How left behind I feel you’ll never understand
