How did we let all of this
Fall apart so fast?
I once was in your present
But now I’m in the past
Our solemn hearts are beating
Strangely out of time
Our poetry lacks rhythm
And it’s missing all its rhyme
Perforations break just like the
Hearts that don’t quite make it to the end
And now it hits me here today
You turn your back and walk away
And I can’t look, it’s just too much
To live my life without your touch
You pack your bags, I say goodbye
But there’s no kiss
No, not this time
No, not this time
No, not this time
I used to see a lover
On the mirror on my door
But now it’s in pieces
Left all over the floor
You were on center stage
In the dramas in my dreams
But someone pulled the curtain
To end our beautiful scene
You hammered all your nails
To build the boards of my mind
But our house just collapsed
On to itself over time
I wish I could repair it
But the boards are too thin
And I don’t have all the tools
And I don’t know where to begin
