I wish you were mine
To someone else you belong
I'll still sing your song.

I have told a truth
Some tried very hard to quell
It was mine to tell

I came up for air.
But couldn't find the surface.
You guided me there.

We're in each other
Our love keeps us safe and sound
We don't touch the ground

You're holding hostage
All your nightmares and your pain.
The ransom I'll pay.
So that you can move forward.
Live to greet another day.

The past is ingrained
A fine powder residue
You just can't brush off.

You are like a stranger
Your touch foreign and cold
No explanation do you give
If the truth be told
At least give me an answer
That much is owed to me
I am left in the dark
Without a light to see
You seem pleased and smug
While I simply want your love
An apology I would offer up
Not something I'm above
Yet now I'm feeling angry
Like I'm not in the wrong
Keep it to yourself and pout
I'll be gone before too long.
